After reading all the negative comments on this site we were dubious about booking this hotel, however it was half the price of the other 2 hotels available in the area with a swimming pool so we thought we would give it a go (we stayed with an Autumn saver deal DBB for 3 nights). There were some minor bad... more

This is the worst hotel that I've ever stayed in. 11 of us stayed here for my granddad's 80th birthday at a cost of over £1200. The staff were incredibly rude, they lost our luggage and expected us to find it. The state of the rooms was horrendous. A superior double is 2 single beds pushed together with peeling wall... more

I am a little dismayed at some of the petty comments that people feel they need to raise in the public forum. All large and small organisations are sometimes let down by there staff, but if overall your stay was a pleasant experience, then that is the message you should be conveying.

After paying £130 for 2 adults for ONE NIGHT B&B i would have thought the hotel would have been half decent! The hotel itself has a nice entrance and looks quite grand. The room we were allocated was DISGUSTING!! it was yellow and blue and it was like stepping back in time. there was staines on the carpets all over... more

We had accident whilst travelling down to Scarborough & rang the company (Superbreaks.com) to advise, we asked if we could change our booking to allow us time to sort our car or get replacement. Their attitude was 'tough [--]', no you can't. So we rang the hotel direct & they we fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, our room was... more

We've stayed at the Royal several times and whilst its always been traditional, old fashioned, a little down at heal, it fitted our needs quite well. The food was usually good the rooms were clean but needing a little work to bring them up to spec. The staff were always down to earth, friendly and helpful. We stayed again over... more
