THB Royal

Pleasantly pleased with the choice of hotel ✔️we booked a Junior suite with pool view,got the wow factor when we walked in, we had 2 balconies one off the bedroom wth sunloungers on the one off the lounge was big and had a lovely view of pool and mountains/ volcano 🌋✔️, free safe ✔️ 2 TV's 📺 one in lounge one in bedroom, there are 2 pools but bar 🍸 is only at the main pool, there's a shop on site wth all ur essentials in and Aldi is across the road, it's so peaceful at this hotel, u cud hear a pin drop ✔️, reception staff helpful if we needed to ask them anything and the manager of the restaurant was very welcoming and the fella at the evening bar 🍸 was friendly too, there's always cleaners on site working very hard all day, now, for the restaurant food, there's alot of choice but was sometimes quite cold 🥶 but there is a microwave, it is ur usual hotel buffet food, it was ok Now for just a couple of negatives ❌️ it is quite a walk 🚶‍♂️ 🚶‍♀️ in to Playa Blanca town and beach, we got a taxi back on the first night which was only about €4 also there was no entertainment either on the night time, no idea why, I didn't ask tbh and I don't think there was anything in the day either but we were out anyway ❌️ and the last thing was the smell every so often from the sewers in the room but that happens in a lot of hotels and resorts ❌️ Would i return ??? Yes I think if I was to go to Playa Blanca again then maybe I wud but I may look for something a little closer to the beach ⛱️ etc But a lovely few days anyway and lots of site seeing 👀!!

What the hell have i booked, no entertainment ever other hotel is banging but nothing here, no bar near the 2nd pool, In the room absolutely shocking AC in the living room but the bedroom boling, Whole room smells of mouldy water, paid for a premium room and got the worst.

This was my 2nd solo stay at the Royal. Yet another wonderful week. I was there for a much needed rest, so took half board to keep things easy. The hotel was fully booked all week but my lovely quiet room was peaceful and comfortable. I love the casual playa layout within glorious gardens of mature trees. It's like living in an oasis village for a week. 2 pools with terraces. 1 lively with a pool bar, 1 quiet and chilled. No issues getting a sunbed. Fellow guests were sociable and friendly. The guys on the pool bar were hilarious. So friendly and couldn't do enough. All staff are hard working but never passed by without a smile and friendly HOLA! I enjoyed the food. Lots of choices and some innovative dishes I'd never tried before. I do enjoy trying new foods so that was a treat! I reckon I ate my body weight every day. I have noticed in the last few years that English is less routinely spoken in lanzarote hotels, apart from reception. This doesn't have to be an issue. It's very easy to communicate with respect and humor. Every interaction with the team was warm and cheerful. It's a pleasant 10-15 minute walk to the nearest beach which has gorgeous turquoise water and well served with bars and restaurants. If you prefer something quieter - flamingo beach is a nice walk along the promenade. A lovely hotel that works hard to give guests of all nationalities a lovely Lanzarote experience.

I am very concerned about my holiday booked at this hotel for 22nd September. I am elderly and have serious mobility problems. I have now emailed the hotel reception 5 times to explain the situation and ask for a ground floor no step access room with a walkin shower cubicle rather than a bath. This is over a period of six months. I have asked them to acknowledge receipt as I know the emails have been delivered but no response received. If they cannot be bothered to reply to an email it worries me what the standard of the hotel is generally. I have also contacted the head office and still not received any response. I understand the hotel chain is privately owned by a spanish family and am wondering if British clients are not particularly welcome or deserving of attention. I usually holiday in Costa Teguise and have always found the service and contact there impeccable. This is my first time in Playa Blanca and I am now very apprehensive about the hotel I have booked and the holiday in general.

We have just returned from a one week stay at Thb Royal ! We thought it was a lovely , peaceful and well looked after hotel. Rooms : we had a junior suite with a pool view. The rooms are very basic, but for the amount of time we stayed in there it met all our needs. Large hanging space , great shower , nice balcony with table and chairs. It was cleaned every day except Sunday and fresh towels whenever we wanted them . Pools : two lovely pools , always with plenty of beds and kept spotlessly clean by staff who work hard constantly. The water was chilly but that was great as it was so hot there ! Food : we stayed half board. We found all the food to be lovely , so much so that we hardly ate out , even though we had gone with the intention of doing so . Half board also included wine or beer too. There was so much variety and also freshly cooked food that you could order too . The salads were all lovely , there were always lots of choices to suit all tastes. A special mention to Dennis who was great fun and very welcoming. The area : it is about ten minutes walk to the beach , a bit further to the marina and about 15 minutes to the shops and bars of playa Blanca . It is an easy walk along the street. The beach is lovely and the marina has a market on twice a week . Aldi is opposite the hotel if you need essentials. I cannot comment on the bar or the entertainment as we didn’t make use of them. We thought the setting of the hotel was very lovely , cleaned constantly and found everyone to be friendly especially if you attempted to speak to them in Spanish. There were so many different nationalities there too which was great to see. A very pleasant and peaceful stay & very sad to have only been there for one week .
