Tired hotel but nice location

We booked the hotel at the last minute and only because we couldn't find any where else over the bank holiday weekend. We had a suite on the top floor. No elevators which meant we had to carry our bags up 4 flights of stairs. The room itself had lots of space and furnishings were newish and fine. The carpets are in sore need of a change though which would improve the musty smell I think. The location was good and right in the centre of town meaning everything was a short walk away. Not really a place I would go back to unless there were a few updates done.

Calamity

1/curtain de railed(was already partially), and too high to fix for us or staff. 2/We were moved to another room for 2nd night because of curtains not closing., with a downsized bed, from which we were in the first night. 3/ A woken at 12.30am with major banging on hotel front door, and side door and man had been locked out your supposed to call reception number which in turn transferred to duty person, however, the number had not been forwarded. We were up with 2 other (female)residents who answered my call to reception ,my partner and the 2 ladies eventually let the man in, who was frozen. (We did not know if he was a resident, hence the delay in letting him in)So hence not much sleep after that and not one member of staff to be seen. 4/ Breakfast seems to be 2 different methods, help yourself one morning, and get served nxt one....6/10 for breakfast. 5/Lastly No Apologise....ever!! Not one from, im assuming the duty manager, for the shambles the night before. No responsibility taken, for anything. Very ignorant and couldnt care less attitude. This is a value for money hotel, with added features!! Not for everyone. TV,s far too small for rooms.

Central location, parking limited (unable to park any of the days) , reception welcome limited to key & then trying to get information from gentleman (very busy ) this is the reception & first impression. Foreign guest checked in front left to find room with no directions came back for help. Visited Royal before & has had a slight facelift and refresh but still lacks character. Clean room & fresh linen but no further attention to room in a two night stay. Breakfast was freshly cooked & poached eggs on request. So would use Royal again Only as necessity and not as a base etc as amenities next to none.

We were in the old section of the hotel. One of our room doors wouldn't shut, the other had several lights our and it was dark. The carpets were worn and the bathrooms old and not very clean.

Last minute break

Check in and check out was quick. Room was comfortable only gripe would be no coathangers and on the top shelve it was thick with dust. Bathroom clean. Both meal at night and breakfast lovely. Had stayed here several times and will return again as good value for money

Not a good choice -- very disappointing

Very disappointing. Car Park is for 8-10 cars - full on arrival with restaurant diners and no effort made by staff to ask them to move their cars. We parked on street which is legal after 5.30pm to 8.30am (overnight). Toilet seat slid on top of bowl - uncomfortable. Reported it and told OK. Mattresses uncomfortable- felt springs through them. Window opens 2 inches BUT doesn't stay open - we wedged a cushion to keep it open- no other form of ventilation. No hot water - ran tap and shower for 20 minutes at 11pm and at 7.30am, almost tepid water eventually came through. Food appears to be ready-made convienence dishes microwave reheated - nan bread rubbery, pasta carbonara was dried out on top and stodgy. Breakfast cheese was hard and off colour at corners. Tea bag had disintergrated inside the paper packet. Restaurant staff struggled to serve 12 guests at dinner - we had to walk to bar to order as they had forgotten us. Most staff were off-hand and didn't care. Hotel appears to lack standards, leadership and care for their guests.

Rooms are a bit tired and need some tlc but spacious, comfortable and clean. Parking can be awkward. That said any shortcomings made up for by friendly and helpful staff.

Disappointed stay

The hotel was nice . We went out for the evening and were told that the door was locked at 11pm and given a phone number to ring. We rushed back at 10-45 pm so that we did not get locked out and the doors were already locked so we had to ring to gain access. In the morning after breakfast we climbed the four flights to the top of the hotel where our room was and it reeked of cigarette smoke!!! When my husband mentioned it to reception her reply was that where the smoking area was outside the smoke comes in and up !!!! I find this hard to believe as the area was at the back of the hotel we were towards the front !! She really did but seem bothered and if that’s the case why not move the smoking area ? It must be staff as most visitors had checked out or gone out. I cannot stress how strongly it smelt it was disgusting. Spoilt our stay. We had come for a funeral.

Dated hotel, but great service & affordable price

Per the other reviews this hotel is dated, but the staff was really nice and it included a full Scottish breakfast that wasn't bad. We stayed for one night after the Highland Games.
