Pleasantly surprised with quality 👌
Great experience start to finish! Very clean accommodation! Not 4 star more 3 star but thats not an issue. 6 days a week cleaning your rooms. Recommend the half board option! Food quality great! Lots of variety and drinks included in dinner option too! I paid £95 upgrade for the half board including breakfast for the week! No brainer! Great location too. Would definitely return.

Large rooms
Rooms more spacious than expected. Housekeeping every day except Sunday. Lovely private balcony. 2 Large pools with lots of sunbeds. Water fountains to top up your bottles. Hotel has recycling bins. We booked a quiet room in zen area. All good for first week then family of 5 given the room under us. Unhappy toddler crying from 5am, other 2 kids constantly bouncing a ball. Lots of empty rooms over by the main pool which would have been more suitable. Managed to use the gym then on second visit, it was all boarded up and floor being dug out. No notice on the welcome letter. Lots of positives, cleanliness, staff are cheerful and helpful , the recycling.
Lovely quiet hotel
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 👀!!

Worst 1 so far
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.
A perfect week
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.
