convenient and comfortable
Very nice hotel conveniently adjoining the Railway Station. Pleasant and helpful staff and an excellent English breakfast.
The hotel was once rather grand and could do with a little modernising, but it is still comfortable.

Historic building
When you staying in an historic building as old as the railway line it serves, there's certain aspects that is going to feel dated.
Sure, it's not going to feel like a brand new building but the age gives the hotel some character. The room was perfect for a two night stay, clean and a nice size TV not some portable TV.

Overnight Stay at the Royal Station Hotel
Arrived to the hotel early and they had no problem storing our suitcases until check in. All the people behind the service desk were super helpful and friendly. Even helped give us recommendations for where to eat on the evening.
Went to the swimming pool twice while we stayed and was a nice amenity.
The room we stayed in was a decent size and clean.
Had breakfast on the morning which is a buffet and is well worth it, the variety and amount that is available is plenty and good quality too.
Always enjoy when we stay here.

A lovely stay
The superior room was huge
Obviously the building is,175 years old so is a little tired but beautiful. It is clean and the staff are so pleasant and,welcoming. The breakfast was amazing, hot and freshly cooked. The only negative i would say is the leisure centre which could do with updating in the changng rooms. Also a little dangerous having to walk up and down wet stairs between pool and changimg rooms. Would definitely stay here again.
