The Royal Hotel

Feels like it was last redecorated on the 1990s. Breakfast featured reheated soggy hash browns & scrambled eggs with a nice skin on top. Bed comfy, though! Would have been nicer if in late November they didn't think that an open window & radiant off was such a good idea.

I have just returned from The Royal in Ashby de la Zouch. The staff were lovely and very helpful. The Royal is past its best and is getting very shabby.
What I was really disappointed in was that there were no lunches or evening meal especially as it says restaurant on their advertisement. There are plenty of restaurants in Ashby High Street but when you are by yourself its not the same as in the comfort of your hotel

This is a lovely old hotel, but like so many of these once proud buildings, with minimal upkeep and maintenance, the building is looking shabby and tatty and has lost its once great luster, nothing that some TLC wouldn't put right. The staff are all very friendly and happy to help. Our room was modern and comfortable and very happy with it.
Breakfast in the morning was your typical help-your-self full English, with cereals, juices toast and yogurt all available.
The Royal Hotel is also in a great location for Ashby-de-la-Zouch's main high street and shops, a pretty place, well worth a visit.

You know what, this place is fine. The staff are genuinely lovely, the building is nice.... It looks a bit tired in places like the restaurant but I think they're having a bit of a refurb over the winter so it's hardly a deal breaker.

Room wasn't as good as expected. The shower was rubbish but the staff were lovely and friendly. Very easy to find and good location as shops are very close by

Even though the staff are really friendly, polite and the breakfast is great this hotel needs a proper refurb it cannot be called a three star it’s so old and tatty it’s unbelievable, for us we never paid the full price and thank goodness shower cubicles a tiny shower curtain sticks to you it’s that small and grubby the whole place is just tatty tatty tatty , Bedsheets were very clean though, the carpets are stained everywhere , tatty paint work , the little room of the bar has got leather seats are ripped to shreds you wouldn’t even want to sit on them and we didn’t , please someone spend money on this hotel as it could look spectacular- it’s a tired old hotel !

Charming Hotel from a different age. Lovely staff. Good bar. No restaurant available except for breakfasts. Worth the cost.

Could not fault the friendly lady at Reception who opened up the bar for me whilst I waited for my car to be valeted this afternoon but, boy oh boy!, does the old place need some money spending on it.
Sad really.
