Fabulous!

Fabulous hotel with an excellent staff! Our room looked out onto the beach and was picture perfect! Comfortable bed, AC, fridge. Really excellent! Wish there were better restaurants in town. Try to reserve one of the four parking spots owned by the hotel.

Great stay

Lovely hotel in front of the beach, very nice staff and on site parking. We stayed only one night so we chose the cheapest room which was quite small but clean.

Great views of the sea but hotel is now looking dated. Room very good with excellent shower. Be warned the underground parking is very tight especially if you are not on the first floor. Would stay again if I was v traveling through royal. Excellent restaurant recommendation from receptionist , opposite casino 2 minutes away from hotel.

Hotel is a great location right on the beach. The hotel itself has an old world charm to it and has more character than some modern chain hotels. Maybe a little dated in places, but clean and has everything you’d need or expect. Parking is an underground car park not suited to any slightly taller/larger cars and certainly not our van. There is however free parking on street within very easy walking distance.

Hôtel très bien placé nous avions une chambre face à l'océan spacieuse et propre une bonne literie avec possibilité de deux oreillers. Peu insonorisée avec une déco assez ancienne néanmoins bon rapport qualité prix avec un accueil sympathique bilan de l'ensemble plutôt agréable.

Heureusement l’emplacement est idéal !

Malgré tout le professionnalisme de l’équipe n’arrive pas à faire oublier la vétusté des chambres même si cela pourrait aussi faire partie de son charme, mais la qualité et le prix du petit déjeuner vous laisse une note négative jambon très moyen et œufs brouillés bof même si l’emplacement est idéal on est loin de la qualité des hôtels italiens dans la même gamme de prix
