As we booked on a late deal when we arrived at the hotel we were not booked in, reception staff were very helpful and problem solved very quickly. Room was a decent size and very clean towels/bedding changed daily TV in room although all channels were non English speaking.

Food was fine and plenty of it, bar staff were very nice.

Pool area very clean although I would imagine there would maybe be a shortage of sunbeds in the height of summer.

Location excellent right on the beach, plenty of small souvenir shops and cafes/bars dotted around. A bit of noise from railway line but you soon get used to it.

The only annoying thing we found was a horrible smell every evening in the main reception, manager was out spraying air freshener to combat it. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

We have stayed at this hotel several times before, and we all think it is very good value for money. Ok the entertainment might not be too our liking but what the heck it's only a few euros to go out!

When we arrived men and woman walking round reception very drunk and shouting at each other was only 6.30 pm. Hotel seems to attract stag and hen parties who start drinking at 10am and don't stop till 12am when all inclusive ends. Never got no sleep as fighting and shouting starts then in corridor.

We ate in restaurant twice first when we arrived just in time to see chef put left over gravy into soup as soup was running out. Food was bland and not hot people used microwave to heat meals. Breakfast no better eggs stuck together cold. Older people ate out cafe over road.

This hotel was very clean and the rooms nice but never 4 star have never seen food like it and more like an 18 to 30s hotel

The food was bland and basic as expected for a Spanish all inclusive, and there were microwaves available for the English who like to eat their food hot (Spanish don't). All in all, there was a fair amount of choice and all well cooked - can't say anymore as we didn't pay very much and so didn't expect gourmet meals!

Snack times we personally found frustrating as they did not serve drinks at these times and so we had to walk to the bar and bring our drinks through, which is a little walk. Also, you had to queue at the bar, one side for hot drinks and the other for cold.. no deviation, even if no queue! Not really a problem but a bit of an irritation (especially when you miss breakfast!)

The local red wine was a little vinegary - but add a little lemonade and it makes it bearable!

This hotel clearly used to be a four star, but seems to us to be very much a three star (however it wasn't hot and thinks always look better in the Summer).

We travelled at the end of November beginning of September and were told that we could use any of the Top Hotels facilities within the area, and we were looking forward to using an indoor pool. However, every other hotel was closed which the man at reception thought was hilarious!

The weather was long sleeved tshirt weather to coat, gloves and scarf! Varied quite a lot but overall much better than the UK.

Don't be afraid to use the transport system, it is so easy and very cheap! There is a bus station in the centre of Lloret, which also takes you to Blanes train station... this was a god send for us visiting in November.

Hi honestly I am a lads lad if your 18 to 30 but not in that age group any more party on, family probably ok in summer forget winter. Rab c Nesbitt mentality in town. Kids animation guy Cyril Bonza tried hard, my 5 year old got bored on last day my 10 year old day 4 big uns a few bars open plenty footie beer prices ish massive

Improvement needed to this hotel play the game of spot the non smoker but reminds me of going down the legion in the 70s you get what you pay for. Daddy paid 1.100.00 for the tribe from pick up from home return home that is ok value.

Next year this time Dominican or Tunisia or bust a week in Scotland by the sea at least I won't get lung cancer

This is the second year running we have used the Royal Beach, and I feel the food standadard and also entertainment has went down hill since last year.

The hotel itself is kept very clean and the staff friendly as always.

It is very close to Fanals beach, very handy when you want some peace and quiet to sunbathe weather permitting of course.

I would use this hotel again but on a bed and breakfast basis as we spent a great deal of time eating out
I did feel the hotel had a lot more nationalities visiting this year and some were fairly rude.

Just arrived back from a week stay at the Royal Beach Hotel, very worried prior to going due to the reviews that I read. Due to being a family of 5 booked 2 rooms, would advise if you are a family of 4 and booking late deal would be better to book 2 rooms as the rooms do not fit 4 in comfortably.

The hotel was very clean, cleaner that cleaned our rooms were very pleasant.

The hotel had quite a good choice of food, some people complained but we are in spain and the food seemed to be the same as previous hotels we have stayed in. The hotel had a childrens section that had on chips or potatoes, meat dish, fish fingers or nuggets, pasta, boiled ham and cheese. The other section had a good selection of cold salads, 2 different soups, pasta dish, fish dish, meat in gravy, grilled meat dish also one vegetable dish. You could always find something to eat. Snacks were toast, chips, burgers. You could get ice cream all day in the restaurant. The dining area was very clean.

Bars - you seemed to be queing all the time, at the main bar - adults were allowed 2 drinks and children 1 drink at a time, so one adult could not go to bar and get one drink for the family, one adult would go and you need to drag all children to get there drinks. At night the queues were worse for the entertainment, but there is an adult bar that there is not usually a queue at so quicker to slip through to this bar.

The best thing about this hotel is the roof top pool, no queues the nicest barman you could meet really pleasant smiles and chats to you, he gets to know you and what you drink, young children can go to the bar for their drink and he is really nice with them. There is a small pool up there which is good for young children, very quiet no screaming and shouting. The door to roof top opens up at 10am so no reserving beds you just get up to door at about 9.55, usually lots of spare beds. The pool on the ground floor is decent sized lots of beds, usually lots spare, but very noisy.

The entertainment is ok the children enjoyed the mini disco and the adult entertainment is worth watching.

Location - close to the beach, beach nice but sea very deep very quick, not safe for children unless adult sat watching.

This is definitely not a 4-star hotel as we understand it! We were quite worried about visiting this hotel after reading reports the day before we left (wish we'd done that earlier!)

Regarding cleanliness we agree with other reports, the hotel was very clean, and the rooms were kept spotless, although the maid "tidied" the bed on several occasions rather than made it up properly.

The food was always well cooked and presented but deadly dull!! Not much variety, and we only saw one "Spanish" item in the whole week - a half-hearted paella! The children's food looked very unappetising, my son said the only tasty things were the fish fingers, the same stuff appeared every day. You had to queue in the dining room to get an alcoholic drink, we found the bar staff quite surly at times.

The dining room itself was over-filled with furniture, often leaving no room at all between tables, you had to get up to let other people in and out.

The location, as far as the nearest beach is concerned, was accurately described, ie about 5 minutes walk away, however the beach (fine gravel, not sand) is not the best in the world, definitely not safe for young children at the water's edge, as they sank into the gravel quite easily. As for getting to the main town, this was not too far, about 10-15 minutes walk, albeit up quite a steep hill at first (not mentioned in our brochure!)

The entertainment for adults was quite poor, worth watching on one night only for the comedy value(not that it was supposed to be funny ... and that was after several drinks!) The children's entertainment during the day looked interesting but my son, at nearly 12, felt it was too young for him to get involved. Anyway, it's each to their own - we met some couples who had been there several years in a row (!?!).

The worst things about the hotel were: the noise coming up from the bars outside (our room overlooked the crazy golf course and had several bars nearby). We were woken several times by groups of young French and/or Italians coming in late and singing as they went past our room. The other bad thing is the ridiculous limit of 2 drinks per adult. When you are sitting in a group of 8 or 10 and half the adults have to go up to the bar together to get enough drinks for everyone, it's madness!! And it took ages to get served. You couldn't even take your other half's card up and get 4 at a time - not allowed.

There was only one choice of draught beer, which, according to my husband, was not particularly nice - he often went over to the pub across the road with a few others to get a decent pint!

Last but not least - we were really annoyed to find no remote control in the room - we were told at reception you had to pay 20 Euros to get one - at the end of the week we found out this was a deposit and we would have had it returned!! Not made clear at all.

We most definitely would not go to this hotel again.

Last August I returned to the Royal Beach hotel after my first visit 4 years ago. The receptionist even remembered us.

The staff at this hotel are very friendly and helpful.
The food excellent. They cater for everybodies needs.

For example they have traditional dishs such as paella which I personally enjoy. However they also cater for the less daring who like to stick to what they know such as, burgers, sausages and chips. Which my mum was happy with.
My room was very clean and so was the hotel.

The entertainment was good however there are a few children in the bar until late. But the entertainment was also for them.

This is a great hotel for adults who don't like holidays like 18-30's, like me. And really good for children especially the entertainment.

I would highly recommend this hotel. I have just booked my holiday today to go back for the third time.

I really don't understand all these poor comments about the hotel.

39 of us went to this hotel.(Few families, and mostly youngest). My self being one.

The rooms were cleaned every day but very very small. We were over looking the pool area.

Pool size was big and the pool area x.

The bar stuff wasn't that friendly but the entertainment was very good.

Staying all inclusive the food was not nice at all the only food I ate was chips drinks where good though. I ate out mostly.

Being part of a big group we had lots of complaints about noise but what do you expect as we would range from 12-25 in youngest.

Good air conditioning in the hotel. not far from the beach but the beach is not sand and hurt my feet not much to do in Lloret, you could get a bus to Salou and other town around, everywhere was too far to walk but the market was not far. You had a supermarket across the road and a few other shops and pub but other night cubs where like 10-15mins walk.

My friends also when to this place last year but not the same hotel they went to Royal Star and said it was a much better hotel and more friendlier staff.

We also meet lots of welsh people out there too!!!!!!!

The walls in the room are thin and you can hear people in the next room and walk in 4-5 @ night. This hotel is not for families but for youngster who like to party but I would like to come back to this hotel but I would like to view others 1st.
