We had a 1 night stay here. Lovely spacious room (9) with view over Kirkby Lonsdale town square. Quick check in. Good staff. Good breakfast (even though we had to wait 30 mins for chef to arrive!)
Great central location
Stayed 4 nights here and would come again. Lovely spacious room, comfy bed and great shower/bath. Bar and food is fab and the hotel is central to mooch around Kirby. Would definitely recommend.
The Royal is right on the square in Kirkby Lonsdale making it perfectly placed for exploring the local area. Comfortable and spacious room, great staff and a decent restaurant and bar. We were able to walk from the hotel to whatever we wanted to see locally and it was nice not having to use the car over our weekend away.
Fantastic bedroom and Bathroom. Decor was exquisite. Food was plentiful and top quality. Ambience and staff attentiveness superlative. A really enjoyable experience I want to repeat again.
Absolutely fabulous place. The staff were very helpful. We would recommend this place. Reasonably priced. The room was gorgeous and a comfy bed.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
No parking onsite. Hotel is lovely although the bathroom was a bit shoddy- clean but things hanging off the walls, paper peeling etc. Staff were friendly. Good breakfast. Great central spot for Kirkby Lonsdale.
Nice enough, but the rooms are very old fashioned.
Breakfast took 50 minutes to arrive. Rather than full English asked for sausage, bacon, beans and hash brown. 1 small sausage, 1 piece of bacon, 1 hash brown and the smallest poor of beans you could imagine. Asked for toast, didn't get any.
Wife got the vegi breakfast, was ok, but again no toast.
Overall a great stay but could of been made better as the whole building was quite cool, the open fire in the snug was not lit even though it was just over zero outside. The duty manage (I think) seemed to be more concerned that he should of been on his break and that there was only 3 on duty instead of 4 when answering our queries at check in. Once we had put our thermals on and checked in it was a great little find 😊.
Fantastic food abs serves for dinner 😊
