Lovely and very helpful staff and their service is second to none and breakfast was excellent with attentive staff. However, the rooms stuck in time warp (late 80s to early 90s) and are in need of bringing them up to 21st century and maintenance also badly needed. In fact quite a few shabby items in the room such as plug stuck in basin sink, door handle to ensuite broken, and ancient electric heater badly burnt.

This was my third stay at The Royal. Staff are super friendly and it's over the road from a beautiful beach. Breakfast was great and my room was generally fine. My complaint is that the mattress was so soft and had a huge gap in the middle. Consequently I slept badly and woke with a sore back. I had a long drive the next day which was very frustrating.

Hi, l stayed for 2 weeks and found the staff to be fantastic, welcoming and always up for a chat, as am l :-) The breakfast was yum and set me up for the day. My room was always clean and no frills, did the job perfectly. The Hotel is situated in the middle of the bay, close to the Metro if your into walks - the beach is beautiful. I knew there were renovations going on during my booking, it didnt interfer or deter my booking. I look forward to returning to The Hotel on my next visit to Whitley Bay

Booked unaware of renovations.. bathrooms dirty and very tired rooms, dirty in grooves of dressing tables, shower cubicles and floors with years of use showing. No lounge to sit in just had to use bedroom when not out. Staff lovely felt quite sorry for them as complaints made directly to them. Front of hotel all boarded up.. wouldn’t have booked for 2 nights if had known. Breakfast was lovely though. That was a saving grace. I think a reduction in price should have been offered once arrived but just got told this is what we have and an apology. We had already paid upfront too. Very sad as it was a weekend we were looking forward too.

Lovely people, outdated facilities.
People were lovely and would do anything to help. Location is fantastic. However the rooms are simply outdated, stained carpets, old furnature etc. The beds were particularly bad, could tell the mattresses had been used for many many years by the permanent dips and lack of comfort.

Mid Week stay
Overall a good,comfortable 2 night stay at what is a well established friendly hotel within a rather old and tired Victorian building. My room was on top floor and had velux windows so could not open. It is the height of summer and I was given a fan, but unfortunately room was constantly hot and humid. Breakfasts were included and were faultless. Thank you

Good and ideal location
For one, budget conscious person travelling alone it's always great to find a single room allowing a saving. At The Royal Whitley Bay right in mid-July, in the middle of the seafront promenade area, I paid only £35 a night incl a lovely, large breakfast each day with fresh fruit, juice, coffee, yoghurt, cereals and a gorgeous, very large full English in a nice little breakfast room. Wow. I know the little single room I stayed in from many years ago - old, unrenovated, the same as it was & good for me. It is clean with a good ensuite with lots of instant hot water in the shower. The old, much-loved seaside hotel is being renovated - for the moment that's all downstairs so there is no bar or restaurant after breakfast for some time. I always liked The Royal. The people there are really nice. I was able to leave two pieces of luggage after check-out to take advantage of the sun at the seaside for a good five hours or so. The hotel is perfectly situated on the seafront with a few restaurants & bars around in this quieter end, five minutes walk from the very busy Spanish City vicinity. The Newcastle Metro is just over 10 minutes walk. Thanks to all. I hope to be back.

Whitley Bay weekend bolt hole
We were a group of friends on a weekend trip to Whitley Bay. Booked the hotel for all of us, upon arrival found it was undergoing renovations. There were no communal facilities and the front was partially boarded up.its all a bit tired but hopefully after the refurbishment it will be much improved. Having said that the staff were lovely the breakfast was as good as any 5 star hotel and the location is excellent. So I would say post refurbishment give it a go.

Always excellent and great value.
Traditional Hotel, from the revolving door, to the friendly reception, Holly (in training), crisp linens and comfortable bed. Katie & Liz in the bar, fun and efficient in equal measure. It's terrific value and i wouldn't stay anywhere else. Considering it's in the city centre, deathly quiet at night. Access to rail and Metro is excellent. Under a minute from back door to platforms.
