nice hotel. No Lift if you are struggling up the stairs. Al;l the staff were very nice and helpful. Now two things which i find with most Hotels Number One i always take a can of Raid Fly Killer and douse the beds both sides of mattress if i can and the base of the bed and pull it out from wall and spray round the carpet edges. so i did this and never itched. 2nd point is Breakfast underneath Infa Red Lights at the Royal i was down early for Breakfast and everything was luke warm apart from the Sausages.. If you have the lights on too high it dries the food out more two low everything thing goes cold. The other thing in all hotels they always put the toast out early on Every body is different but if they asked do you want Toast now or Later. I like to have cerials then the cooked breakfast and finish off with Toast and Jam/ Marmalade ect. The shower worked and worked well and Bathroom was alright. Room was good and warm. when i walked in they had left the heater on and i had to turn it down.and they made Vegan Sausages for one of the Guest.

Decent
I booked this last-minute after another booking fell though. The booking process was easy and the staff member at check-in was friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable if slightly dated, and an extra space heater was quickly provided by staff to make it nice and toasty. Breakfast was a hot buffet, okay quality and plenty of it to fill me up for walking around Newcastle. The location was good, on the sea and walkable to the metro.

A seaside stay
We stayed in a family room over looking the sea. The view was superb. The position of the hotel was also perfect. The room was large but sparsely furnished. It could do with some updating really. A few extra touches would have been nice … perhaps a fridge… The bed was comfortable but it would have been better if it was a king size. The heater was old and difficult to change the temperature. The room was either too hot or too cold. The decor needs updating too and the shower room was cold and tired and to be fair disappointing. The breakfast was however amazing. All in all a nice stay but would have paid a bit more for a more smarter room. I think the whole hotel could be more luxurious with some easy updates.
