“The Royal Alfred presents itself as a notably smart establishment, benefiting from a recent, high-standard refurbishment. Its position opposite the train station is undeniably convenient, and the hotel's interiors and rooms are consistently described as spotlessly clean and comfortable, with particular praise for the bedding and large televisions. Dining in the pub downstairs is clearly a significant draw, with food and drink receiving consistent commendation from those who have stayed.”
