Not suited if your travelling for business

When booking, I hadn't noticed that I had to be checked in by 20:30, which is a challenge. After ringing to find out if there was any flexibility, I was told that as long as I was there by 21:00, someone could check me in. Arrived at 20:35 to be told that they would need to contact the manager, as they didn't know how to check in after being unable to make contact. The pleasant, helpful and apologetic young ladies worked it out. Breakfast was included in the rate, but as they don't open until 9am, breakfast was not an option as I needed to be away. This hotel is not suitable for business trips with mid-evening check-in and late breakfast. If I had noticed (check-in ) and been advised before (breakfast time), I would not have stayed here. The helpful staff need to be trained on how to do check-ins.

Great stay

Lovely room, spacious and clean with a very comfortable bed Nice size bathroom with complimentary soaps, shampoos etc All rooms on first floor so could be an issue if you have mobility problems Royal hotel bar/ restaurant quite busy so would recommend booking if you want to dine in. Food quality was excellent and a great service given. Decent size car park across the road, always found a space to park even when it was busy in the bar I would have no hesitation staying here again if I am in the area

Ferry cancelled

An unexpected stay here after a cancelled ferry at Heysham but what a gem, such helpful staff, off road parking, amazing food and spotless clean. Ignore any dubious reviews, yes there are tired spots but these are all far outweighed by the positives. Only a 15 minute drive to Heysham too…

Got a dog? Worth a stay.

Nice hotel - good food, doggy super-friendly (even meals and ice-cream) - car park huge but not in peak times - only negative was the walls a little thin but nothing major. Distance to carnforth, lancaster and morecambe fine. Lovely people.

Room clean, linen well provided, crisp and clean, bed very comfortable. Television good. Good on-siute toilet and shower . Staff friendly. Out of hours exit requires use of fire escape to poorly lit area of uneven ground. Lighting to that area needed. Otherwise carry a torch. Would defiantly stay again.

Fire escape needed to leave room!

The room was fine, if a little noisy from the road and the food in the pub was good. However, once the pub closes if you want to leave the room to walk the dog etc you need to use a steel, slippery fire escape. I'm 67 and didn't like it, my dog hated it too. I'm afraid I will not be returning.
