Reviews and Ratings
This place feels more like a guesthouse than a hotel, with limited services and no staff presence outside of regular hours, which can be quite inconvenient. However, it's very affordable and clean, with a surprisingly quiet room. Just be prepared for a lack of amenities like Wi-Fi and an elevator.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which is conveniently located near shopping areas and public transport. The room was clean and spacious but lacked some comfort with air conditioning and limited access to power outlets. While the overall value for the price was good, the shared bathroom situation could be improved.
I stayed at the Royal Hotel during a weekend, and while it has a great location near NorthBridge and was relatively clean, I found the lack of basic conveniences like Wi-Fi and an elevator a bit frustrating. The room was decent for the price I paid, but I wouldn't call it luxurious. If you're on a budget, it might be worthwhile to book at a special rate, but overall, I wouldn't recommend it for full price unless you're very easy to please.
I stayed at this hotel and found it to be a solid choice for budget travelers. The location is incredibly convenient, with easy access to public transport and various attractions nearby. The room was clean and reasonably priced, but the shared bathroom was a bit inconvenient, especially as a female traveler. Overall, it's not luxurious, but it offers great value for money considering the central location.
The hotel has a charming old-world feel given its age, but it comes with its share of inconveniences like noise and shared bathrooms. While the location is fantastic, making it easy to explore the city, the lack of modern amenities and noisy nights might deter some guests. Overall, it offers decent value for money for its centrality, but don’t expect luxury or tranquility.
This hotel has a quirky charm with its vintage decor and great central location. The rooms are clean but can feel quite small, and the missing amenities like Wi-Fi and breakfast were a letdown. Despite some drawbacks, it's a good option for budget travelers looking for a taste of old-school hotel charm.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While I appreciated the clean rooms and the central location, I was frustrated by the lack of reception services and continuous noise from other guests. It really felt more like a budget accommodation than a proper hotel, and the absence of facilities made my stay less enjoyable. If you're looking for something cheap and are okay with basic amenities, it might work, but I wouldn’t recommend it for a longer stay.
My stay at the Royal Hotel was a mixed bag. On one hand, it was the cheapest option I found in pricey Perth, and the room was spacious. On the other hand, noise from the street and fellow guests made it hard to sleep, and I felt the security could be better. It’s an okay choice for a brief stop, but not if you value a good night’s rest.
I had a decent stay at the Royal Hotel, especially considering the affordable price for a city like Perth. The location is unbeatable, just steps away from great restaurants and entertainment. However, noise from the street and other guests made it hard to get a good night's sleep, and the shared bathrooms were only moderately clean. While the charm of the place is appealing, the overall experience could definitely be improved, especially regarding soundproofing.
