Royal Oakwell Hotel

Clean and comfortable. We had a small double room ample for us (mother and son). Breakfast was a little late for us at 9-10am, but staff were very obliging when we explained we had a booking and opened at 8.30am for us. We only had one negative, my son and his friend would have liked to have played pool, and my friend and I wouldve had a drink in the bar, but the room appeared to be permanently looked.

The bedroom light was bit twitching it was bit annoying and also the charger

Friendly staff, very clean rooms. Bathroom a little dated and very small shower. Room has kettle, cups, toiletries & tea/coffee

Compared with many others this was value for money. Expedia transferred me after staying one night in an extremely bad hotel and in comparison this was bliss. Stayed 3 nights and it could easily been more. Some of the nearby properties were not well maintained but no issue here. As I had provisions I did not have breakfast but that also sounded good value. Comfortable bed and room all round , not 5 star but neither was the price. Shower took a while to heat up and was not manoeuvrable in its use but plenty of hot water. Just off the south shore amenities and a bus stop a minute inland as well as on the seafront. The reception desk is not always manned but there is normally someone about especially if you are expected. No hesitation in staying again, ignore old reviews.

I wasn’t happy at the fact I had to move rooms because there was a crack in the shower floor I got moved to another room and the shower wasn’t working don’t get me wrong the staff where very helpful
