Ever wondered where you could get a 20oz steak in Tenby and enjoy every mouthful, then find the Royal Lion Hotel, North Beach, Tenby sa70 7ex. Must admit from the front which is the hotel part it did look like it was in a time warp, and round the corner where you get into the bar well it did make... More

Just back from a lovely weekend in Tenby the sights and seaside town were superb but it was the hotel that let us down. We arrived late on Friday and called the hotel for directions and the guy on reception couldn't help us and as it turned out we were only around the corner! Finally checked in to our room... More

Although in a fantastic location with brilliant views there is no parking within 5 min walk. Room was a great size but windows did not open for fresh air, no blinds to keep out very strong sun. Floorboards were very creaky . Bath / shower did not work well as could not adjust between shower and bath taps. Also shower... More

We';ve stayed here before a long time ago, and it was summer, so maybe we didn't notice the terrible state of the window frames. But last Friday (28th May) which was a bitterly cold and very windy day, the wind from around the windows was almost as strong inside the room as outside. I used a whole loo roll to... More

Situated on the sea front the hotel looked very rundown but on checking in found the room to be large and warm which was good considering snowy conditions. I went into town for food early evening and returned looking forward to a nice hot bath. After my bath i picked up one of the folded towels on my bed to... More

Second time staying here. It's adequate, price is the same for most hotels and B & B's in Tenby. The place needs some real competition to force the standards up. There is no investment in the building or fit out which says it all. I guess times are tough. However I was disappointed with the breakfast which after all only... More

A group of us stayed & were made welcome. Comfortable rooms, almost all with beach/ sea views, if looking a little tired. Catering is good and the bar open late. A close walk to beaches, albeit fairly steep paths, but considered suitable for wheelchairs - just. Plenty of activity inc. bars & shops (mostly gift type) in very close proximity.
