Skegness The Royal Hotel

Delicious breakfast, good price , lovely freindly staff.

2 men on reception are friendly. Good selection of breakfast and tasted very nice.
Our room was a twin. Cleanliness of the room wasnt the best as there was dust on skirting boards and on the bedside table..did not complain as still enjoyed our time. Hotel needs updating in many areas however it mustve been a spectacular building in its time. Definitely would stay again..

The hotel in side is very tired. The room was ok, new shower curtain and nice bedding. Breakfast was a disaster. There were a lot of guests staying at the hotel and we are not sure why it’s in the condition it is.

The information on hotel.com needs updating.The checkout time is 1030 not 11 and the breakfast is 0800 until 0930 not 0730
The hotel gave us an upgrade to a balcony room which was appreciated.

Loved the breakfast and friendly staff, nice entertainment, would go there again.

Excellent breakfast, with helpful staff. The room was clean and well appointed but tired looking The garden area requires improvement compared with my last visit 8/9 years ago. The 'touch screen' door lock new system is a hugely improved facility, helpful to the resident as well as safety and number control for the hotel.

Didn’t get our keys until 4.20, and when we went to our room it was as the last people had left it. Beds unmade, dirty cups etc. a guy said he would get it done immediately, so we left our cases and went for a walk. When we returned it was ok, but the bathroom could have been cleaner. The staff were very pleasant, but the whole place needed a good clean.

Good friendly staff. Good food. Good bar prices.

Great location but it’s run down and in dire need of refurbishment.
Room 110, good size but the most uncomfortable bed I have ever tried to sleeep on.
The en suite was snug and again dowdy.
Breakfast very good

It's not bad for a 2*, however the building needs a total refurbishment. It's a beautiful hotel, but It’s tired, old and needs a total makeover. The room i stayed it was dirty and covered in cobwebs and had one plug - thank god i travel with a extension wire. Bed was comfortable, and I had a hot shower although i founds hairs in the bath.

Breakfast was amazing and staff friendly! Location is amazing. If they stay on top their cleaning, and carry out the refurbishment they can hit the 4* mark.

The Hotel was comfortable and clean enough, but for the price I paid, I expected a much higher level of service and catering. The breakfast was very disappointing, and felt more like a transport café than breakfast at a hotel charging nearly £200 a night.

Like the hotel appearance, but the bath room needed cleaning and upgrading?

Breakfast was all in the price. And the bar was open when we got back from the show.
It seemed that the hotel was run on a shoestring. Staff were working 12+ hour shifts and the one person was covering all tasks. For example, upon check in the man at reception, by himself, had to check guests in, answer the phone, serve at the bar meaning that paying people were waiting longer than necessary. At checkout, again one lady having to sort queries, take any payments, check guests out and answer the telephone (which is why one cannot get an answer when ringing the hotel direct).

Nice large room and very good breakfast , convenient for all amenities. Plenty of car parking.

Deffo 2star hotel

Old and outdated, most things are battered and breaking. Carpet is ripped, shower curtains discoloured, paint stained and old.

The staff were lovely, just let down by the building.

Nice hotel and location. Staff were excellent, dinner and breakfast were superb.
Would stay again.

Beautiful old building, great location and good breakfast. Friendly staff.

Downsides were the shower curtain was tired/old/dirty and the towel rail was on/hot in the height of summer with no ability to turn it off. This felt like a waste and bad for the environment as well as heating the room up when it wasn't needed. Also the shower temperature could not be changed, so it was cold for ages then very hot, with no ability to do anything about this!

The room so outdated furniture from the 50s

I was really looking forward to my stay at the Skegness The Royal Hotel, unfortunately I don't think they properly accommodate people with gluten intolerance/Coeliac disease. Despite emailing the hotel ahead of time to confirm the availability of gluten-free options for breakfast, I was treated with some hostility when asking for gluten-free toast and there was never gluten-free sausages available. We visited in June, perhaps out of season, but the hotel was fairly busy and it seemed like staff were overrun. A decent price for the room and a great location, I think this hotel has a lot of potential but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone with any allergies or additional needs.
