We didn't partake with breakfast offered by the Hotel as we found it to expensive, the catering establishments within easy walking distance offered a much cheaper range of breakfasts and great value for money 💰

On check in we arrived into the reception area to check in at 14.50 and was abruptly told that the check in wasn't until 15.00 and that we would have to wait until then. On entering our Double Room (115) we found that there were no plug sockets either side of the bed, when bringing this up with the same receptionist she replied" unfortunately your room is the only room that didn't have them" and gave the impression that we only got that room because we had booked it through Booking.com and not directly with the Royal Hotel. Not a good impression to start our holiday 😡

Every thing was good and as we had an adult with epilepsy and hidden disabilities. The bathroom was really great for her had all the things to hand which is amazing

The shower it’s self , water kepf coming out of the walls , the sealant was in dire need of replacing/repair , and how the fact that the staff were knocking on the door made both young adults uncomfortable, they were asking if the bath mat was the cause of it as water was leaking into the reception area, no matt , bath ) was even there , and we don’t use one as very dangerous, otherwise, every thing was really good staff very friendly and helpful

food was excellent. room service was excellent, hotel was in a good, central location for the beach and the town.

We were staying in a room overlooking the square but unfortunately the noise outside from Vinnies Karaoke and the pub opposite was horrendous. The pub was open until 2.00 am on the Friday and Saturday night and patrons were still outside shouting for at least another 3/4 hour. Vinnies was open the afternoon and evening on both days. We closed the windows and switched the television on but this made no difference to the volume of noise. This situation could certainly put off guests from re-booking which is great shame

Really friendly staff, lovely traditional style hotel, fantastic sea view from the room. Simple breakfast but had all you needed. Free parking right outside. Have stayed here on several occasions and would definitely come back.

The bar closed at 10.45 even for residents, which was disappointing as we came back to the hotel at 10.30 after a meal looking for a nightcap, or two. There were only 3 little tiny uht milks in the room, as one had already been used, which meant we couldn't have a second cuppa, but I am nitpicking (I'm sure we could have asked for extra if we weren't lazy).

Good location on the sea front, very close to the shops. Free parking included at the hotel. The staff were very helpful. The bedroom had been newly decorated & it was warm, very clean, & the bed very comfortable. Breakfast was freshly cooked & there was a good choice. I was even offered an additional item that wasn’t on the main menu. I would be happy to stay there again.

No entertainment midweek. Our room had a few steps from the door & bathroom to the seating & bedroom level. Some people may find these difficult so please request a room without steps.

We booked the Royal Hotel as we needed to make an overnight visit to the area to see a relative who is seriously ill. The location was perfect for us and from the moment we arrived our every need was catered for. The Receptionist was warm, welcoming and exceptionally helpful. Conveniently, we were able to park in the car park immediately in front of the property. Our room was large, well furnished with every comfort - (I think we were ‘upgraded’ … thank you!) - warm and comfortable, with everything we needed, including a large en-suite bathroom with plenty of hot water, great shower and large bath. Breakfast was fabulous, including a full English option. The hotel is reminder of great British seaside holidays of the past. If you’re offended by the odd bit of chipped paint and a slightly shabby chic vibe, it’s not for you, but if you value character, comfort, location and excellent service, then this place is a gem. Highly recommended … help keep these wonderful hotels alive!

Wi-Fi was poor but it’s a large, old building.

The food was exceptional, nothing was too much trouble, we used the restraurant for an evening meal, roast Wednesday the size of the meals was huge, all four of us thoroughly enjoyed the food and the doggy bag to take the leftovers. The breakfast selection was excellent as well. All the staff were so helpful and friendly, nothing was too much trouble. The room was lovely with a sea view, the bathroom was immaculate too. I would like to thank all the staff for being so helpful, from cooking meals not on the menu due to dietry needs, to going and finding tooth picks. The service from all staff was impecable. The location was exceptional too, especially as have a partner with mobility issues.

The only thing that would have made it better would have been better internet as it did drop frequently. But that didn't impact on the stay at all and its only a very small niggle

My room was quite large and had a good view of Weston Bay. The shower was very good and the bed wasn't too bad. When booking, I requested that I not be given a room directly opposite the karaoke bar across the room and was pleased to be given a room far away from it as I'd had to endure noise from that bar on a previous stay.

My only real gripe was that I was only supplied with 2 teabags and 2 small milk cartons which didn't last long and weren't replaced when staff emptied the bin on the first morning. The staff at reception were happy to supply me with more though it meant I had to go down there to ask.

The room was lovely; excellent bathroom; good tv, and 2 comfortable chairs to sit in; good views; very clean.

The bed sheet / duvet far TOO SMALL for ANYONE - BUT PARTICULARLY A PERSON 6 ft. 4 ins TALL; both length and width (prefer sheet and blanket); Shower floor very slippy and dangerous. Breakfast - poor (sad!). The 3 ladies were excellent and worked very hard - POOR QUALITY and COLD. Sausages poor quality, hash browns just about OK, scrambled egg looked like 'setting concrete' and may have been 'packet / manufactured'. I love scrambled eggs but decided on fried eggs which were OK. Overall cold and looked poor quality. It would be so easy to make it better - make it a quality breakfast!!!

Breakfast food was good, but only luke warm (all four mornings ). Some of the younger kitchen staff showed inexperience, i e, Asked for pot of tea, received tray with pot of tea, two cups and jug of milk, no saucers, no pot of hot water, no sugar and unlike the previous day, did not ask if we would like toast. We didn't mind as we have previous experience in the catering game, and have had to train staff in the past and it still beat camping. Please treat this more as an observation than a complaint.
