The Royal Hotel Kirkby Lonsdale.

Our stay at the Royal has been lovely. Any queries answered. Attentive and very friendly staff. Breakfast and evening meals were lovely. The shops in Kirkby are good, varied selection and a great bakery.

Room was clean, most staff were efficient and friendly. Breakfast could be improved with bacon that hadn’t been overcooked. Music in the bar etc was dreadful - some weird cover versions in between adverts…

One night stay

2nd time at this hotel. Reason for staying there again was because it was so lovely first time. Bad move! Arrived Friday night, had a lovely meal and walk around village. Pretty busy. Back to hotel for a drink..sat in the lounge which was empty to begin with. Started to fill up very quickly, and the noise was so bad we went to our room. Room not in best state of decor, and looked like a duster hadnt been near it for some time. Noise from the bar below was terrible, and was impossible to sleep. Even when the place eventually went quiet, guests were obviously wandering the corridors making a noise. Breakfast was lovely. As we went for our car later, we heard some other guests who were also leaving, complaining about the noise and lack of sleep! We wont be back.

Comfy bedroom

We had a very spacious bedroom/bathroom with a lovely comfortable bed so a really good night’s sleep. The breakfast menu was quite varied and I did see people ordering “off menu” which is a bonus. I ordered the vegetarian breakfast which was mostly tasteless but my husband had the English breakfast which he enjoyed. My one and only grumble was that when I asked to check in I was told quite abruptly “ you can’t check in before three”. I do understand they have their instructions but first Impressions do count. Hopefully their new members of staff will eventually learn to add a few words of welcome or explanation.
