I liked everything except the steps on the balcony. They are slippery and my boyfriend slipped and fell. It would be nice to put rubber strips on the steps to prevent slipping. But overall I was very happy and satisfied with my stay there.

The ambience. After a bit of a scary moment and a few kerfuffles here and there, the staff and the manager were just the kindest and the sweetest. They cared about my soloness and accommodated me above and beyond. It's not the Ritz, but it was very close as far as the care and attention was concerned. The room was cozy and the lighting great. Beds comfy and decor fancy and thoughtful (depending on room)! Fridge and microwave a bonus. Clean towels and bedding. The balcony is great with views of Clacton pier and the lights if you get those rooms. But mostly the kindness of the staff was the winning point especially the Boss. I felt safe after feeling unsafe because locks do need to be put on porch doors as terraces are very close to eachother and that's important I think if you're travelling solo. I had a fab time though. A very memorable experience.

The property was fantastic! Ample space, very cosy interior. It’s on the 1st floor but not very difficult for us to reach even with luggages. The property is quite strategically located as the town centre is nearby. Would love to stay here again if we are ever back in Clacton.

The room had been done up. A good shower . The fridge was kept stocked with milk, juice yoghurt, cheese, butter and Margarine and a variety of jams. Fresh fruit every day. Paul helped carry my very heavy luggage. They were available and were very helpful. Within close walking range of the beach, pier and high street, as well as the beach path walk. Will definitely stay there again.

    Very under rated resort.

    Very under rated resort. We tend to visit a friend who lives in the area out of season. There is still plenty to do and the beach side walks and gardens are excellent. The Greensward cafe near the Martello tower is a favourite place for breakfast and you can let breakfast go down with a game of crazy golf on the course next to the cafe. Newroz Kitchen on Rosemary Rd is an excellent Turkish restaurant where we like to visit each time we go to Clacton. There are all the usual seaside activities that will keep everyone occupied.

    Though Clacton on Sea like many British sea side towns needs some rejuvenation and investment. It still holds some of its old school charm. Plenty to do in a small arrear with two theatres and a pier, bars and restaurants, Its great for a short break or weeks holiday. Easy to get to from London. And also has other places to visit not very far away like Walton on Naze and Colchester.

    Clacton pier was great for children the beach was clean and there was a few toilets locally which was good. Car parking is dotted around that’s free for a couple of hours but paid car parking is expensive

    Plenty to do around Clacton by car or feet.. we choose feet! Day at various arcades.. can be expensive, but loads of 2p machines still. if go to the pier (you have too) look at buy pre tickets for whole day, much better value. Day on the beach. Also lots places to eat and drink, again prices vary so look into this in advance if you wish to save some pennies!

    Clacton was far nicer than I expected. Loved the amenities and gardens and would be happy to recomend it for families in particular. It was easy to get around, though the traffic queues to Holland on Sea inland were a pain. More easily accessed along the coastal road.

    We actually live in Clacton on Sea and just wanted to celebrate our Ruby Wedding anniversary with dinner in your restaurant, which was an excellent meal, then an overnight stay in a comfortable room with a sea view and the full English breakfast completed our very happy stay perfectly. Thank you to all staff at Kingscliff Hotel!

    Booked this hotel for a birthday party we were attending nearby and was very nicely surpised at it presentation. It was large, airy, clean and even looked welcoming. The staff were lovely and couldn't of been more helpful all weekend and it was the perfect view over the sea sitting in the bar. Breakfast was all good and plentiful, my only slight preference would have been if they had some avocado and sour dough available as a healthier option but it was not a problem. I would definitely recommend this hotel, it was beautiful

    First time staying at the Royal Hotel. we stayed in the empress jacuzzi room, On arrival we were welcomed by friendly staff. booking was quick and informative, our room was excellent and as described. After reading mixed reviews. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. Hotel is clean, staff are friendly, we had a problem with our tv, but was soon sorted after reporting to the front desk. Vicki and her team made every effort to ensure our stay was perfect. We have already booked to go back soon!
