The Royal Hotel

The Royal Hotel

8/10 Good
"We had a very nice room at the end of a corridor with a sea view. Handy to have lift opposite too. The house keeping was very well done. However, would suggest they need to change the carpet in the room. Black duck tape repair isn't a good look. Also the main bed mattress very uncomfortable and really needs replacing. Other than that there was plenty of tea and biscuits and masses of hot water. Overall we had an enjoyable stay."
