Good stay
Very friendly staff. Room fine, beds comfy. Really good breakfast. My only suggestion to improve our stay is we would have appreciated some bottled water in our room, and gluten free biscuits.

Food was beautiful with large portions which very reasonably priced. Rooms comfortable and clean. The staff couldnt have been more helpful and friendly. Very close to lake and park area lovely place for walking and close to a street with a good variety of eateries if you dont want to eat in hotel. Onsite parking available. Only downside was the small tv and although netfix and amazon prime available internet was so slow we gave up trying to watch a film online.

Treated like a King at the Royal
The location of this hotel is absolutely amazing. The Crosby beach is only a 10 minute walk and the main street of Waterloo is just 5 minutes away with bars and restaurants a plenty. The Royal Hotel is a lovely place to stay with a restaurant on site. The staff are excellent and very helpful. The rooms are clean and have enough space. You have tea and coffee making facilities in the room and a fan to cool you down on hot days as there is no aircon. Rooms are set on 2 floors but there is no lift so maybe not a place to stay if you are disabled. We had a meal on our first night and the food was delightful and cooked to perfection. The price of the meal was affordable and the service by the waitress was excellent. They have a bar there that can seat plenty of customers and once again the bar staff are very helpful and cheerful. I will definitely be staying here again in the future and would advise anyone heading to this area to do the same. Thank you to all the staff at the Royal it was a pleasure to stay at your lovely hotel.

Comfortable hotel in pleasant location. Short train ride into town. Trains every 15 mins. Lovely walks around lagoons and Gormeley statues on the beach. Better than staying in the city. Only downside was the bed on the soft side for me. Otherwise all good including breakfast.
