A place to avoid, dated old and feels unclean, I was not able to have good night sleep as it was noisy, hot and uncomfortable. There are no facilities and the wifi only worked in the reception, not in your room or even in the grotty dirty bar area Sorry but a place to avoid

I stayed at the Royal for three nights as tour leader of a group - odd for me as I live only 20 miles away! My room was small and on the top floor quite close to the lift, but this is normally where tour guides get put, so no real complaints there, though the room was rather warm even... More

Had an overnight stay here. The room was clean and comfortable. It was also "compact and bijou" !! To be fair we did only book 4 hours beforehand and it was the last double room available and at a knock down price. Breakfast was ok. A typical hotel buffet breakfast. Why do these hot buffet tables only keep the food... More

Before you book this hotel do check that they don't have a wedding on as if you are on the second floor you will hear it. Also check to see if there is a dog staying with its owners in a room above yours. We had a one above us that howled when its owners left it. Couldn't fault the... More
