The Royal Albion is a lovely hotel, offers a traditional atmosphere and stylish decor. Great location, overlooking Viking Bay with easy access to the beach and charming town. The sea-facing rooms offer stunning views across the bay. The staff are very friendly, attentive, and helpful. The breakfast is a highlight. It's delicious, best one I have had in an UK B&B, offering a variety of delicious options, including cooked-to-order choices, it goes well beyond the standard full English breakfast. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay andwould love to go back.

Great location, v friendly staff and great food options. Lovely sea view from room. Breakfast was fantastic. Was surprised by the number of options and the omelette was one of the best I have ever eaten. Parked in train station which was only a short walk away and very reasonably priced.
