The Royal Hotel

A came just to have a quiet cup of tea in the lounge area , but my enjoyment was somewhat spoiled as this miserable fat old woman sat nearby kept staring at me as if I'd done something offensive and mumbling things they may or maybe not have been snide comments. This made me feel very uneasy and uncomfortable as as I said spoiled my enjoyment of my visit, and I feel a bit put off coming again if other customers are going to give me the evils for no reason.

Pleasant stay in a characterful,comfortable hotel. On arrival,parking is a bit of an issue-but managed to park up past the church. Kirby Lonsdale has individual shops,plenty of pubs and dining options! Warm welcome at hotel -stayed in room 12 -bathroom modern,the bedroom does need a refurb. Lovely breakfast and staff in dining room . We liked the hotel and will return!

We are frequent visitors to the Dales and the Lakes but this was our first overnight stay in K.L., I doubt very much that it will be our last! The Royal is charming and characterful. Our room was highly satisfactory with pleasing decor and a view overlooking the market square. Ample cupboard and drawer space. The snug/resident's lounge is very comfortable and a quiet refuge with daily papers and reading material. We had dinner in the hotel on our first night. An extensive menu which was not over-pricey and the food was good. Breakfast was equally good with plenty of choice beyond the "usual suspects". The staff were friendly and service was first rate at dinner, but a little less so at breakfast. We totally enjoyed our stay and would definitely re-visit. There is no private parking for the hotel as is the case for virtually all hospitality places in the town, but with a little planning and walking short distances I managed to avoid paying for parking throughout our stay without breaking any rules.

Like a lot of the buildings in the town they are older and the hotel is no exception. The room was perfectly acceptable and the bathroom was modern with a bath/shower. Regarding parking, there is a small car park opposite the hotel with free parking from 1800 to 0900 the next morning but not many spaces. If you want 24 hour parking, there is free on the road parking just past the church a 5 minute walk away but first come first served, so not guaranteed, but we had no problem. Yes, we would stay here again. We used the restaurant for breakfast which was excellent, plenty of choice and ate an evening meal here too. There is a really nice walk along the river Lune which does not require you to get out the car for, just head out of the hotel and turn right.

Just returned home after a 2 night stay at this beautiful hotel. Booked in online. Friendly welcome on arrival from the lovely, helpful receptionist Annalisa who gave us the key to our stunning room with fantastic views. Ate at the hotel the first night as part of the package. Food delicious, freshly cooked & good sized portions. Husband recommends the Sea Bass & I the Fish pie 😋 Beds very comfortable, slept great. Shower huge, powerful & easy to control. Good choice of breakfast options. Overall a great hotel, perfect location, friendly helpful staff & delicious food. Will definitely return 👍
