Arriving in Gallup after dark, found there were many motels to choose from. Unfortunately, most of them are near the Santa Fe tracks and you get loud trains coming through 24/7 -- not just the rumble but they blow their horns frequently. Bring earplugs if you want to sleep in Gallup. So I can't single out the Royal Holiday for... More

We pulled into Gallup rather late and very tired. The Royal Holiday was cheap, but it was listed in the AAA book - how bad could it be? At a glance, the room looked fine - clean and pleasantly decorated. It soon revealed itself to be a collection of booby traps. The refrigerator just plain didn't work, and the door... More

This motel was listed as a Best Western in my Auto Club New Mexico Tourbook. They did tell me when I called that they were no longer a Best Western, but they did have two queen beds that we needed, were near where we wanted to eat, told us they had "standard continental breakfast" and the price seemed reasonable based...

My colleague choose this hotel so I didn't have much of a say in where we stayed. This was the worst expierence I've had in a hotel and I've done a great deal of traveling for work. The room was ok except the hairdryer didn't work. I am already weary of the cleaniness most hotel rooms (even nice ones!) so... More

Hotel property is older, rooms were dated but clean and comfortable. They charged a nonrefundable deposit for our dogs. However, we were happy to pay it considering other hotels we checked didn't allow pets. The hotel is across the street from a railroad track and trains were frequent throughout the evening, although we didn't notice many throughout the night. A... More

The trains were loud BUT it is a railroad town and the rail tracks are just across the street.... Front desk staff was very friendly. This town is a a bit rough we... More

If you like blaring train horns through the night, and smoke seeping into your "non-smoking" room then this is the perfect hotel, otherwise stay elsewhere. Terrible price too. More

We just stayed here in October. If I had been alone I would have asked for my money back and left. The bathroom had mildew and smelt damp or moldy. The furniture was worn and needs to be replaced. I kept my shoes on because the carpet did not seem very clean. We could hear a woman next door talking... More
