Had a great stay at the Royal hotel, we were given a recently refurbished room, even though we had a dog with us. The room was lovely and modern with everything you might need. The hotel is currently in the process of being updated so the bar area was unavailable although a small bar has been moved into the small room at the front of the hotel. There is seating outside the front of the hotel with complimentary blankets to keep you warm. Obviously the new bar will be a great addition soon. Check in was easy, although there was a £20 per night charge for the dog!! Breakfast was lovely, during the week this was table service and at the weekends it was a buffet style. There was plenty of continental and hot food available, all cooked to our liking. The location is perfect for us, with views over the sea and the abbey. Overall we had a great stay and would return and recommend to others.

Staff on reception were really friendly and patient - especially as she was interrupted by a rude customer twice while she was serving us. Very impressive. The room was lovely and clean. We will definitely come back, thank you!

The hotel room was so bad to say it had been recently been upgraded. We woke up with rain pounding through the windows and the carpet was totally soaking. Reported to reception with no response and hence the fire alarm constantly going off during the night. Wouldn’t stay again!!!!!

Property and rooms quite dated, wallpaper peeling off walls in corridors, room was classed as a superior twin with sea view. The sash windows are very old and were filthy, had to wipe the window to try and see the views. On the plus the food was good, breakfast was overpriced. Staff were friendly, it’s in a great location, but hotel needs updating and rooms should be priced accordingly.

An old fashioned seaside hotel with huge charm. It’s in the middle of a renovation so some areas look a bit tired or are obviously being worked on. Room was clean and comfy and warm. Buffet breakfast was plentiful. And finally a toaster that properly toasts the bread!

Newly refurbished rooms are very good. The older rooms are wretchedly poor. Asking for an upgraded room is the best advice I can give. The location on Westcliffe is perfect and so convenient.

Personally I wouldnt
Checking in staff very informative regarding parking. They have a poshier car park that you have to reserve and an over flow one which is on a first come basis. Currently building work going on all around so alot taken up by work vans so not in my opinion exclusive to the hotel. Is other parking available on road and car park but more expensive. Got to room and scaffold up outside windows...no mention of this when booking or when checking in. Workmen there until late afternoon and started again at 8 in the morning...banging, swearing ..no chance of relaxing in room or having a lie in if thats what you would of wanted. Asked how long work had been going on to be told weeks...all was told was sorry...no offer of a room move..curtains had to remain shut the whole time. Room basic and dated, no adjustment on radiator so was v warm in the room. Towel rail rusty. Breakfast there was plenty of choice and would recommend. Bar area very clean and pleasant also. For the money paid do I think its worth it - no -

Didn’t realise had to reserve parking at hotel. There appeared to be several empty spaces but told they had been taken up. Stayed in newly renovated room which was lovely. Staff very pleasant and helpful. Downside was lift which was out of action to 3rd floor which we were on, also very small and old style lift. Hotel communal areas lovely and very nice breakfast. Position of hotel lovely overlooking Abby.
