I've stayed at the Royal twice now when i've had medical appointments nearby. Both bedrooms and ensuites were very clean, pleasantly decorated and very comfortable. The dining room and bar area serves well priced and good quality meals & drinks. Reception was efficient and courteous. On both occasions my rooms were far enough from the bar area to ensure i was not bothered by late night noise, and i actually don't even know if noise IS ever an issue in the accommodation areas. A well maintained lovely old hotel mercifully not ruined by the 'developers'. I will happily stay there again if I am in the area.
