We were lucky ish and stayed in the “new” wing. Smelled of paint and was very basic. If ibhad been give a room in the old part I would have stayed somewhere else!! Rude front desk staff. Walked straight past our free breakfast for obvious reasons. Old, dated and needs a huge overhaul

Very comfortable

Very comfortable and in an excellent position for the dockyard and Quays. More of a “club” atmosphere with friendly staff. We particularly appreciated the reserved parking space as I hold a blue badge . Thank you

The RMH is a former sailers club turned into a hotel. It has an extensive library of books about sailing and the British Navy. If yiure a fan if British Naval history, you could spend hours there. We also found the restaurant to be excellent and ate our evening meal there twice. Menu selection was excellent, reasonably priced and food was good. Staff were very friendky and helpful especially Lucy at the front desk and Arpranna in the restaurant

Clean but dared

Just an overnight stay after docking from the ferry late at night. Hotel receptionist extremely friendly and helpful. Room clean but quite dated as seems to be the rest of the hotel. Breakfast quite good especially if you like a full English. Parking could possibly be an issue, very limited free hotel parking and pay parking on the street limited. Overall fine for an overnight clean and tidy but definitely not luxury but for the price ok.
