Kyriad - Royan Plage

The staff were very pleasant, and getting in after hours with the PIN was easy. Breakfast was nice, though there wasn’t any hot food. The free WiFi asks for your email and then disconnects whenever it feels like it. We couldn’t sleep on the rock-hard double bed, which was two singles pushed together, and our shoulders and back paid for it. The shower was old and discolored, and the discolored toilet was installed so close to the wall it was practically impossible to sit on. Heavy doors and inconsiderate guests made plenty of noise, with no sound insulation to block it.

Just one night for us. The hotel was extremely well kept and very clean. Breakfast was nice, with plenty of homemade things like jam, yogurt, and cake, and the staff were lovely.

Breakfast was a real highlight, varied, high quality, and excellent. The staff were extremely friendly, pleasant, and helpful. The bedding was very comfortable, and both the room and balcony were clean. But the room smelled musty and the insulation was poor. We could hear the neighbors' toilets flushing as if they were in our room, and cigarette smoke came in from people smoking in the hallways despite it being prohibited. The road was very loud in our sea-facing room, and from the first floor the sea view wasn’t much because the road and trees got in the way.

The staff were kind, attentive, and quick to help, and the price felt fair for a place right by the sea. The breakfast room was pleasant, with a varied, good-quality spread and fresh items from a local bakery. Our bedding was excellent and the bathroom spotless, though a little small. The rooms are lovely, but ours felt a bit cold for the time of year. The TV was very basic and tiny, fixed to the wall without an arm so you couldn’t really watch it from bed. Noise from the corridor could carry when other guests were loud. These were minor drawbacks, and we had a truly enjoyable stay.
