“great location, Great entrance and lobby, but needs work upstairs”

Royal Highland Hotel

6 Apr 2008

this hotel looks very grand from the outside and in the lobby,

the staff are friendly, and helpfull.

but breakfast is a help yourself affair which really did detract from the rest of the experience.

overall this is an OK hotel but as i found out after there are better for cheaper not too far away

my only other issue is that the rooms do look dated, the bathrooms have been updated and would say that everything was clean, but dated.

“Average Hotel”

Royal Highland Hotel

Save Review
2 of 5 stars
Shrewsbury, United Kingdom
26 Mar 2008

This hotel is well situated, right in the town centre.

The reception was not great and the room fairly poor for this kind of hotel. Not very clean, old and a bit dirty.

Average breakfast also.

Not great experience

“magnificant Royal Highland Hotel”

This hotel has to go on your list of places to stay when in Scotland!!...A very beautiful staircase greets you as you enter the door....The staff takes great care of your every wish..You can have a casual cup of tea while sitting in the beautiful lobby in comfy arm chairs, or enjoy a meal, in their restaurant--breakfast is spectacular in their large dining room..Great location, and great rooms. The central location makes it fun to browse the lovely town..We will definitely return to this fabulous hotel, on our next trip!!

“Very Nice hotel”

Royal Highland Hotel

11 Mar 2008

We had a very nice stay at Royal Highland, unlike others who commented previously.. If I would have considered those comments stayed else where,, would have missed such character hotel in city centre...
lovely hotel, nice room and very nice bathroom, good food and service and above all the great breakfast buffet with such excellent choice...
overall a very good experience

“very poor”

Royal Highland Hotel

1/1 found this review helpful

Noisy, overpriced,uncomfortable bed, restaurant/room service ok but breakfast very poor for a 3 star hotel. Very limited parking which appears to be pemanently occupied by staff cars.
Location is good as it is very central but take ear plugs as road/rail noise is likely to keep you awake. Reception not great.

Management Response
culcabock, public relations manager
(Management representative)
10 Mar 2008
It is very surprising to note this, but if any body felt disturbed in any of the rooms, we would have been glad to change the room, had the matter been brought to the notice. The average rate during the March was around £75, which , we are sure would sound very reasonable indeed.As our beds and bath has always been appreciated, had we known the room number or the date of stay, we could have easily taken specific corrective action, if any,but without such specifics, it is difficult to comment on this. Our breakfast menu consists of 2-3 types of juices, a selection of fruits, 6 types of cereals and porridge, cold meats and cheese,2 types of egg preparations, haggis, black pudding, hash brown potatoes,mushrooms, baked beans, tomatoes, bacon and suasages, avariety of breads and home bakes and, of course tea/coffee--however, if this still falls short of a spread for a 3 star hotel we shall be glad to receive specific suggestions. Apart from the hotel courtesy car, no other staff/management cars are parked there, however, we are taking steps once again to reinforce this. We have received a consistent 8 out 10 rating in other websites like the Active Hotels/ Laterooms from over 400 reviews and we always try to provide the best comforts to our guests.
