Hotel Royal, Olbia

Advantages: great location, cheap, nice rooms, excellent food
Disadvantages: no parking, quite dated

...Introduction to the hotel: The Royal Albion Hotel was built in 1826 and is situated in a fantastic location opposite Brighton pier. It is a three star hotel and has 186 guest rooms offering views of Brighton beach or the town centre. My experience of the hotel: I spent one night in the hotel in January of this year and for a three star hotel I was quite impressed. I and my girlfriend booked a double room for £55 and it was a spacious room with a four poster bed, couch, satellite television, fridge, tea and coffee making facilities and a lovely modern bathroom with a Jacuzzi bath.

Advantages: Great location, lovely entrance areas
Disadvantages: very shabby in bedrooms

...Royal Park Hotel When went her the year 2008 in August for 2 weeks. The first impressions of the hotel is, it look lovely and clean. Well I couldn't be more wrong. The hotel is nice, but it is very tired looking. It is situated on its own beach which is good, and they were always plenty of sun loungers, which was good considering the amount of people in the hotel. After a few days, I realised why. Which I will explain further down in the review. Firstly, I will explain the layout of the hotel. You walked in the a very large reception area which high ceilings and winding staircase which when up to the second floor bedrooms which is where we were. There were also bedrooms downstairs. When we arrived at 2.30 am in the morning we were all tired as you can imagine as we were delayed going out. We arrive to... Read review
