Royal Hotel Kettering

Do not stay here. I would not recommend anybody staying at this place .very outdated, grubby rooms .it ready needs a good refurbished.

Not great Was expecting more for the money. Damaged heater. Accidentally pulled the bottom sheet when getting into bed to find stains ewwww..... At 06:30 found out no hot water for shower..... Spoke to reception that evening ( very helpful) he gave me a key to the opposite room to use shower Hanging plugs... Decor dated, parts of carpet threadbare. Good WiFi though

Ok for the price Did the job for one night . Decor is pretty awful grey black and sparkly! Spacious room would have been stunning over a hundred years ago not so glamorous now!

One night stay No drinks in room? But 1/2 bottle of scotch found in room, left by cleaner. Renovation ongoing, no food or bar available. Security deposit required, no receipt given, refunded on departure. Reasonable budget accommodation but needs updating.

DIRTY! DIRTY! DIRTY! but friendly receptionist The receptionist was really friendly and gave lots of concessions but as soon as I got to my room started noticing the horror, I was weary to unpack, the toilet had "doo" smeared in it with dried wee stain on the floor, there was blood and other stains on the bedroom wall and I am not sure the bedding was changed, I made a call and a quick overall of the room was made, the rug also had crumbs all over it, the head board was extremely dirty and I had to ask for an extra sheet to throw over it. Unfortunately my friend who stayed in a more upgraded room could not take a shower because the hot water did not work. The hotel looked abandoned from the outside, the pictures online does not do any justice to reality. The WiFi didn't work in my room and was unstable at the reception area whenever it did connect, the house managers looked really unkempt with their cleaning aprons looking dirty from dried sweat or liquid. Never written a negative review before but wish someone had let me know about these flaws before I booked the hotel. Thanks

£50 security deposit… About what you’d expect for the money, but whiffy in places. Did NOT a expect to have to pay a £50 “security deposit” that cost more than the room. Did not expect the room to be as hot as the sun, but at least there was a fan!
