locked out of hotel at 11pm....no one at reception
I had worked in London on Saturday the 12 th...caught a train up to Kettering...a town I had not been to before.I was expected at a pub in Broughton at 7pm for a surprise 50th birthday party.so caught a taxi to the designated birthday venue expecting to check into the Royal upon my return later in the evening....having paid I did not think this would be a problem.BIG MISTAKE!!!!!No one was in attendance to unlock the door to the hotel...after 5 minutes of banging on the door I caught another taxi to the Holiday Inn....a further £12 in a taxi....with another £12 paid out to return to the railway station in the morning for my return journey to London

the Royal in Kettering
Room had an musty smell, the TV did not work properly and the lock to the room was of poor quality. The car park had an old mattress lying on the ground at the entrance which didn't give a good first impression. The night porter needs a lesson in manners. Worst of all at 9pm on my return to the hotel,i found a fire door was propped open to prevent it from banging !

Royal Kettering
The hotel is obviously being refurbished but the management are missing all the things they could get right. The breakfast was not supervised and everything ran out, The bed and bedding was good but the room was not clean behind units etc.The car park and rear parking area was 3rd world with litter everywhere.

Missed Opportunities to impress.
Not great. No hot breakfast - kitchen out of action - misleadingly, this was not flagged up to me when I booked. No appliances plugged in. I wasn't woken up as requested, so overslept - consequently, couldn't even have a cold, European-style breakfast before hurrying out to start my working day. Suffice to say, I won't be hurrying back there any time soon. On a positive note, I left my wallet in my room and they called me as soon as a maid had discovered it - returned safe with £60 cash and cards still therein.

No heating
Almost froze to death! No hot water, no heater all through night and day.
