This hotel is old which we don’t mind. It was right on the beach but our view was very limited. It was fairly clean. Everything was squeaky and noisy: the doors, the floor, the beds. The windows opened a sliver and it was really hot, no fans or any air flow. The beds were very uncomfortable. The toilet seat was the wrong size or not fitted properly and wouldn’t flush well( but that might be “English” thing). There is no free parking nearby. The check-in was good. The staff friendly. The breakfast was decent.

A really excellent location right on the beach. The room was clean and comfortable and the bed was very comfortable too. Breakfast was good although if you aren't there at the beginning they don't replenish fruit and croissants which is not ideal as they advertise breakfast as being from 8-10. By 9 there were no croissants. The outside are is attractive although I wasn't sure why there were two layers of railings between this and the beach. The hotel could have done with a bit of updating and not all the staff seemed to be very helpful or friendly.

Fabulous. Ashley was so helpful. Totally great beach hotel

Stayed here lots of time always good place to stay

Had a lovely stay but the curtains are not ideal as they do not cover the windows properly. We were in a corner room so had two windows - we also had a neon sign outside so there was constant light in our room and it was misleading when we woke during the night Breakfast was lovely - great variety Staff very polity and helpful Would definitely return but would bring eye mask

It exceeded my expectations. Very comfortable and clean. Very helpful and polite staff. Breakfast was wow. Will definitely visit again

Very neat and tidy. Appreciated the coffee and milk provided. WiFi would be useful.

Clean and spacious room overlooking the sea, friendly helpful staff throughout. Enjoyable stay😀

Good size family room, excellent staff and great service.thank you.

Historical hotel with a very good bar. Faces the sea and the room we had was large and really stylish. I would stay here again without doubt. Lovely breakfast this morning too. Staff really welcoming

Very comfortable, very good food and above all very good service

A lovely place!

The hotel is lovely. Excellent location, staff are really lovely and helpful. Unfortunately it does need a complete refurbishment. It is very tired and dated. It has the potential to be a fantastic hotel if the above is carried out.

2nd visit this time as a single. The room was clean but small with a small bed and faced the road. I felt it was a little overpriced for what I received. Breakfast was great as were the staff. Still confused as to how parking works but my party decided not to bring a car.

Charming seaside hotel with a nice bar and restaurant

We stayed one night in a family room, which was much nicer than the photos! Very spacious with comfy beds and a modern bathroom. It was sufficiently clean and the tea/coffee station was well stocked. One little niggle is that the room is rather warm so the duvets were a bit heavy for summer, but we managed. We would absolutely return!

Fantastic hotel at fantastic location. Very friendly staff. Would stay again

Room was very spacious but not very clean at all, bath panel was rotting, windows were in bad condition and the decor needs updating. Had to walk up 3 flights of stairs which is fine but the stairs were uneven (slanted down to oneside) so for health & safety reasons - very poor. Staff were lovely and the positioning of the hotel was fantastic.

The staff at The Royal are always good. The rooms are a little dated but exceptionally clean - lovely bedding! The issue is the breakfast. Nice choice of fruit, juice etc. but the cooked breakfast leaves a bit to be desired! Fake watery baked beans, poor quality sausage, precooked mushrooms and tomatoes. They weren’t so busy that they have to precook to the extent that they do. The breakfast is the reason we don’t stay there very often - and we visit Deal about 10 times a year!

Beautiful views out to sea
