Royal Hotel Carlton

Royal Hotel Carlton

5/5 Excellent
"The hotel is lovely - very friendly and helpful staff, and very clean rooms. It is very close to the station and also within walking distance of the historic centre and all main attractions. It is more of a 'conference/business' hotel but was still very welcoming to families. Breakfast was very good!"
