Stayed at the Royal on business in mid-May 2013. It is a good, comfortable, flop'n'drop close to town. It is - as the name suggests - across the road from the Botanical Gardens, and is therefore close to one of my all-time favourite riverside running tracks. Strongly recommend it from that point of view if that's your thing. Also close... More

The location of the hotel is fantastic. Plenty of places to jog and eat around there, the hotel is just a stone's throw from the riverfront. the interior is not to shabby either. In fact Iiked its understated elegance. The best part, however, is the staff here. They really pay personal attention to guests here. During my stay I had... More

This hotel is very comfortable, and not one of the big chain brands so has some individuality. The view of the Botanical Gardens is good, but if you don't want to pay the extra, you can just stroll out the front door of the hotel, crosss the street, and there you are in the calm of the park.

Stayed 1 night, location very central for the river, you can walk thru the park to the restaurant area easily enough (perhaps 15-20 mins). The hotel is getting on a bit, essentially styleless. The rooms serviceable and clean but a bit shabby. The staff were accommodating and friendly, they were happy to make restaurant bookings. Plenty of taxis right outside... More
