The Royal Hotel Campbeltown

The Black Sheep bar was, at times disorganised and the staff were very slow to clear and clean tables.

Room 26 was very spacious and well appointed. Plenty of storage space and to very comfortable arm chairs in a bay window with stunning views over the harbour. We had both dinner and breakfast in the hotel and the food was of a very high order. The hotel has it's own pub next door and it gets very lively, but the service was excellent. You have direct access to the pub from the reception area and there is a quiet bar in the dining room area. There is also a quiet relaxing space with Sofa and chairs in reception area. There is a lift to all floors. We decided to stay an extra night.

The Parking could be an issue. It is on street parking and it is busy all the time. There is parking directly across from the Hotel but for older folks and disabled the road is wide, so take care crossing. We managed to park just past the hotel in a disabled space on the same side as the hotel. My wife has a disability and a blue badge.

Easy parking, great staff in bar & reception. Comfy room & fab breakfast.

A bit pricey

Dennis at desk was very very efficient , friendly and helpful, and so was Natalie on the desk. Housekeeping great too. Lovely big bed, and a sea- view. Dinner and Dinner staff were terrific all round. Dinner was served quickly with friendly faces and ambience.

There was a constant bad smell coming from the bathroom from start until finish. One day for 3 hrs no-one manned the front desk when I phoned down. I needed to make an enquiry but got no answer. When eventually had to go downstairs at around 2.30pm. we were given a reason from the person at front desk having to have "an appointment". Why did they not arrange to have someone else stand in for all that time-in case of a room emergency (ie a patron having a Stroke). The host at breakfast was very helpful and friendly , however the table was not very clean (sticky). The breakfast equipment (tea/coffee ) were constantly (each day), going wrong.
