Reviews of The Royal Hotel 3 stars

I slept like a log therefore the bed was comfy. Breakfast was very good, plenty of choices. Staff very friendly and helpful and the location is excellent - a stone's throw from the train station and the bus stops (Glasgow bus included)

The room and hotel in general is 'tired'. There's paint flaking of the window frames, the curtains are frayed and decor seen better days.

old fashioned charm & bath.

Comfy beds and pillows . Blackout curtains. Nice staff, very helpful. Food is good and quick service. Good shower. Lift. Handy for town centre and ferry terminal. Surprisingly quiet at night for such a large hotel .

Hotel shabby throughout. Terrible entrance foyer. I thought, "Oh no ,what have I let myself in for!", when I arrived. The room was very small despite having paid more for a better one. Had sea view if you stood on tiptoe. Extremely hot in the room despite there being no heating on. This was, however, speedily rectified by a fan.

Great place to stay for Oban trip. Impressive building with some of the charm still retained. Great friendly staff. Rooms to a decent standard. Excellent breakfast. Some free parking available. Accommodates small dogs in the classic rooms for £10 per dog per night fee.

Breakfast was excellent. Location was perfect for the ferry and the train station

Good location, staff friendly and helpful.

Location good. Everywhere was clean. Excellent shower. Staff v good.

There could have been more gluten free options for breakfast ie cereals. The room was good but the lighting wasn’t good enough for reading. The hotel was shabby in places and could do with brightening up.comfortable and friendly

The hotel was comfortable. The staff were welcoming, helpful with parking and told us of the restaurant/pub for dinner and entertainment with accordion father/son team and a bagpiper. This really was special as it truly felt like Scotland. Nice stay in a good location to walk around and see the town.

Finding parking to check in was difficult as first but they did give us parking when we checked in.

Location

Freaking floorboards,in and the room above

Very nice dinner in the lounge, and breakfast in the hotel. Comfortable room, no issues.

There was a wedding on at the same time, which had a live band. The music, was very loud, with the drumming and singing clearly heard in our room. It was unusual weather, very warm, and we had to have all the window wide open. Thankfully the live music ended 11.45 and we could get some sleep.

everything ok but no AIR window fixed shut

fresh AIR!..no window that would open

Was a great location -loved the location and the place was great to stay at

No all good - really loved staying here

Clean hotel and friendly staff

Paid for a superior double room but that is not what we were placed in. We received a junior classic double which I have only just discovered. Bed was not comfy, definitely needs a new mattress.

Great location right in the centre of town. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Great breakfast.

Rooms are tired but it only advertises as 3 star and that's what it is.

Location near station

Dated. We had two rooms - 321 was nice, 325 a bit dark and gloomy, curtains hanging off track. Bar and restaurant a bit like a canteen.

Location was excellent and although room was small, it was adequate and spotlessly clean. The staff were the standout in this short break. They were friendly, helpful and cheerful.

There was little soundproofing between rooms which was uncomfortable during the night and early mornings.

Great location
