Location
Location from beach approx 10 Min's walk but Fenals itself very boring and view from hotel room was of building work across the town.
Hotel staff were OK except for the arrogant desk staff who didn't cater for the English but 'do enough for the Spanish!
The usual karaoke turn was on on the sat night inviting up all the would be come dancing contestants.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Rooms were cleaned daily with fresh towels each day. However, walls are thin and i could hear stilletto's on the ceiling, rythmic snoring from all sides and drunken scabbling in the corridor. I even had a couple of drunken misdailed calls in the night. I didn't notice any damp but there is definately an ant problem. Food was tasteless but edible..just!! and often food was cold if like me you went later, the microwave is handy but unappealing. No matter we found that if were selective with what food was on offer we could always find something half decent to eat..anything fresh or well cooked was usually ok.
Needlessness to say..the alcoholic drinks were grand but the coffee was something else.
Although we all had a good time and this break had been value for money i would not like to return to this hotel, mainly because of the noise caused mostly by inconsiderate holiday makers and the awful food. But thankfully the holiday is not all about the hotel, the resort itself is fine.

Rooms and beds were kept spotless and cleaning staff were pleasant.
Food was a plenty though repetitive " great if you like sprouts and carrots on a daily basis" you'll find the microwave very handy. You can get a snack between main meals (always the same again though.) Hotel coffee was aweful but we found a decent cuppa in the caffe "Roxys" over the road.
Very handy for Fenals nice beach just a two minute walk and a ten minute walk into Lloret with loads of shops between for presies and cheap booze to take home. The Lloret bus stopped right outside the hotel doors and only cost 90 cents to go into town but a taxi cost 7 euros.
Most of the staff were ok but a couple of them didn't have the time of day for you.
Didn't bother much with entertainment as there didn't seem to be much going on (maybe because of the time of year).
We would visit the hotel again if there was nowhere else to go to or if they made the walls a lot thicker.

You can drink as much as you like and as someone who is teetotal i found that the selection of soft drinks available were more than adequate, I noticed 1 girl there who would have drunk the swimming pool given half the chance so for those of you that drink alcohol it must be like heaven.
The entertainment at the hotel was up to expectations with a swimming gala, music with a live band and Reggie's disco, the rendition of you've lost that loving feeling by the band was amazing (Top Gun enthusiasts should visit for that reason alone).
As a non smoker I would have preferred a no smoking area in the bar but the air con was good enough. The roof top area was the place to go in the day with bar and jacuzzi to pass the time of day there was topless sun bathing which I feel should have been identified so as to not shock the kids though.
This is the best hotel I have been to in Spain.

From old to young everyone enjoyed their holiday, there was plenty of "loving feeling" going around especially amoung the older generation of our group.
The coffee and tea facilities were excellent especially those who like to drink holding china.
The bar was excellent especially the 7th floor with jacuzzi, a bar and plenty of lovely ladies. This entertained during the day and then at night it was a visit to the Hood with K and his friends.
The lady's were great fun and liked to dance the night away. Then it was next door for a delight from Burger World, this was a great finishing point on a great night however some liked to walk down to the beach and take in some sand or lose themselves in the lift.
I would recommend this hotel to all groups although when the karokee night started I thought "China in my hand" was just a bit to good!
Enjoy and don't forget to exchange contact details,I wish I had!

In the light of day, the next morning, things didn't seem too bad until we could actually see the state of the walls in our room. Damp everywhere. We moved to another room but the problem there was the noise, all day, all night. None stop, people don't always consider their neighbours!!!
The food was vile. Same stuff, every day, or recycled rubbish. It was never hot. We spent a fortune eating at the restaurant above Robin Hood where the food was great.
The cleaners were great, and the room (apart from the damp) was kept clean.
Entertainment was rubbish, we just sat outside and entertained ourselves, then went over the road.
All in all, would never go back to that hotel or resort ever again, not even if I won it in a competition. Absolute rubbish. Save your money towards something else.

The place was spotlessly clean.
Food was basic but plenty, meal times even catered for our drunken stag do to get there in time!! Drink was a plenty, probably too much in all honesty.
Location was great, all you need do is walk across the road to Robin Hoods bar and then back to the hotel. From what we heard there was lots of other stuff to do and not far from the hotel.
On the hotel roof is a great bar and at the right angle you can see the sea from there.
The staff were great, just keep giving you free alcohol, beautiful, we even witnessed them save a drowner from the pool. They all make you welcome.
Entertaiment was your basic holiday stuff and reflects the price, we made our own most of the time and some even come and found us! The comedian called F O Denzyl was ok, but you need a drink to really appreciate him
I would go again, we have worn a path from bar to bar to assist other stag do's, we have probably left them some clothes too, our party tried to respect the family aspect to the hotel and perhaps it needs a few more to do so to make it more family appealing.

We have stayed in this hotel 6 times now ( the flight s direct from lbackpool are sooooo cheap) and are booked to return in March. The all inclusive is what you pay for and personally I feel the hotel offers value for money.
The rooms are clean and the bathrooms are spotless though the balconies from the second floor up are smaller we didnt spend any time on the balcony at all but if you do prefer a larger balcony ask for a room on the 1st floor they are twice the size.
During our stays at the Royal Beach the food has always been varied and our family have never gone without.
Last May we were there for a week and there were 12 of us and we never once used the microwave provided to reheat food , we all agree the food was well presented but sometimes not for the faddy eaters. The snacks in between main meals are repetative (chips, hotdogs, cheese bacon, salad, bread, fruit and ice cream) but who normally eats 6 times a day we just used the snack bar if we had missed main meal etc. or if the kids fancied some chips/ice cream inbetween.
If you are planning a day out you only have to let them know at reception the night before and they will put you down for a packed lunch each which you can collect from the dining room after breakfast they are great with a sandwich, cheese crackers fruit and a bottle of water.
The location couldnt be better. With us knowing the area you are within walking distance of lloret (15/20 min) but still close to shops and bars and the best beach (fenals) is 2 min from hotel it is that close that on days we were at the beach we left our towels etc there and nipped back for lunch/drinks.
Hotel staff tended to be sour faced mainly the bar staff downstairs but at the end of the day there are only there to serve you your drinks not to marry your daughter. On the other hand on the 7th floor there are 2 whirlpools and a small bar run by the most friendliest guy in the building (we spent most our time up there).
There is a good entertainment programme with nightly shows 5/6 out of 7 and kareoke / mini discos organised by the hotel entertainment staff on the others but I suppose it is down to individual taste. Our daughters are 6 and 9 and have never been bored whilst staying at this hotel but Imust admit the entertainment kids club wise was better last season but still nothing to complain about. There is entertainment for all ages if people want to take part which most the time they want to be left by the pool.
We will definately be back and if you are like us 'Average Joes' you will be too x

The food, yes there is chips everyday but there's also salad, cold meats, cheese, vegetables, bread soup, fish and pasta everyday, so selection for everyone I would say. The only down side is the restaurant gets very busy, there isn't a lot of room between the tables and you do have to queue, but there was never a problem finding a high chair and they are constantly bringing fresh food out.
The hotel is kept lovely and clean, and the rooms are cleaned throughly every day.
All the staff are friendly and helpful, even giving us bags of ice daily to keep my milk cold and fresh for my daughter.
The swimming pool area can get very busy, but it was a refreshing change not to have to race down early in the morning to get a sunbed, there was always plenty to spare.
The entertainment staff were great with the children although daytime activities were quite quiet. The mini disco in the evening was enjoyed by all and the adult entertainment was different every night, spainish dancers, a magician, 60s band etc.
All in all, an enjoyable holiday and yes would go back.
The hotel is about 5 minutes walk away from the beach.

The food was spot on, the room was spotless, the entertainment was brilliant, the drinks were flowing,the location was excellent, 2 mins walk from the centre. I had a really good holiday and it was definately worth the money.
Would I go back to this hotel again?? Most definately without a doubt, we will be returning on June 8th 2007!!
Anyone who wants a lively and very enjoyable holiday this hotel is for you.
