Lovely sea view from balcony. A large comfortable and very clean, well decorated room. Car park a little tight but managed to get a space the whole stay. Only issue was seagulls on the roof. Earplugs sorted that out

Our family of 2 adults and 2 teens stayed in the family room overlooking the street. The kids loved the 2 bunk beds in the smaller room and the main room was very comfortable. The hotel has a old- world feel that really made it feel unique (to us Americans at least) and seemed so perfectly appropriate in this classic costal town. The included breakfast was absolutely fantastic in terms of the service, variety, and quality. Proximity to the local sights was unbeatable and the parking lot in the rear was extremely welcome since we drove in. Cannot recommend this hotel enough!!!

Perfect accommodation for our family trip to Lyme Regis, our children and dog were welcomed and felt so comfortable, very rare for us to visit the same place twice but I’d make an exception for the Royal Lion, we had the best time
