Very welcoming gentleman on the bar to check me in, rooms were perfect, warm and well presented with a great breakfast tray. One great thing for me is that they trust you with proper clothes hangers, not the silly ones that don't allow you to unhook the hook like you get in bigger hotels, nice touch lol Great location, ideal car park across the road (pay & display) Highly recommend this place.

Cannot fault the twin bedded room we stayed in. It was very well decorated and very clean. The lady that checked us in (Nina) was excellent. Payable parking directly across the road, if not full. Would definitely stay again.

8/10 Very good

Charming pub with rooms. Nice bar area with outside courtyard area and good drinks range (and lovely glassware!) . Very friendly staff and rooms very well appointed with clever use of space, However didn’t sleep well as the room was way too hot and the pillows are not great. Would stay again though as the good outweighed the bad.

The Royal has become our go to place when visiting our daughter at university. It is clean, convenient and good value for Money. We have stayed in multiple different rooms and each one has been to a really high standard. Highly recommend.

6/10 Good

Nice clean room. The lady checking us in was delightful. The room was very hot and there was a lot of traffic noise which is fair enough as it was on main road. Disappointing there is no breakfast. They do a basket in your room with some cereal bars and prepackaged croissant This is not a hotel it’s a pub with rooms even though there was a photo of a breakfast room on the website.
