    Why wait to do the Trip Advisor review? Did you check it before you booked?

    Im assuming so that the OP still holds leverage over them

    ive just phoned the royal hotel explained id complained and waited for a reply but as of yet had not received on was told senior manager was very busy but i could email or send letter in told them im also very busy but if i dont receive a call by 5.00pm suggest he goes on trip advisor and be first to read my complaints about hotel before all the other people who use the site read it.

    That is very annoying, however it unfortunately is not a matter that trading standards would deal with.

    would it be a breach of trade discription
    courtyard (an open area of ground )
    tradesmans entrance ( the entrance used by tradesman to deliver goods and services)

    How is Trade Description involved? Are you struggling for a genuine reason to complain?

    pimento- wish id spent 10mins reading them before i booked it oh well lesson learnt same reasons mentioned on reviews poor reception service, loud music.
    looksguy- plenty of reasons to complain (loud music/early deliveries/ 30 plus steps to navigate for a oap who we said was not very good on her feet) just making a point it clearly states overlooking courtyard we counted severn delivery vans when in the room and we spent 90% of our time on the sea front, why call a delivery bay a courtyard isnt it false advertising? im kicking up a fuss because been totally ripped off and they have shown no attempt to apologise at all, total lack of respect for a paying customers complaints although reading on trip advisor thats how they deal with complaints

    Common theme throughout seems to be that they don't respond to complaints.

    Would never stay in a dive like that.
