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

Not bad for a 2* - cleaning an issue

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.

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).

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!

Too busy to accommodate

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.

Location was very good, short walk to the clock tower and shops. Staff were brilliant. Check in was smooth and we managed to get into the room a little early. The room (we stayed in 319) was as described, it had a very big balcony with a view to the sea. The bathroom was quite small but we could live with that to have the balcony and views. The food was excellent, we booked bed and breakfast but also had a dinner in. Breakfast was buffet style. The dinner menu gave a reasonable choice of items. Whilst the stay was value for money and we would stop here again, purely for the above reasons, the hotel in general was in need of some work to bring it back to it's former glory.
