Royale Palms Condominiums

Overall we really enjoyed our stay at the Royal Palms. We stayed in a 2 bedroom condo that was very spacious and nicely decorated. We were very comfortable and loved the full kitchen and updated appliances. The condo was very ckean and we would definitely stay there again. We were disappointed however, with the view. We expected a room with an ocean […] view. We were assigned a room on the second floor that directly faced the parking garage with no view of the ocean. When went back to the front desk and asked for a room on a higher floor and closer to the side of the building that faced the ocean, we were told that all of those rooms had been booked and were assigned to a room on the 6th floor in the same location. While we did have a view of a small slice of the ocean if we stood out on the balcony, the view from the condo was the highrise next door. While the fine print does say the room includes a view of the ocean from the balcony, it is not what I expected or have previously experienced with a room that is advertised as having an ocean view.

Couple of things I didn't like: 1. The individual beds were very small, most hotels have a double sized bed for guests; 2. They did not have free Wi-Fi for their guests you had to pay for it daily; 3. I have never stayed at a hotel where guests had to pay for parking daily.

Was a very nice hotel and room for the price the only downfall was being able to hear every thing from the next door room and being woke up every morning but that could have not been the hotels fault and instead just the very inconsiderate rude family that made so much noise in room number 906

We got there at 10 am and the hotel was nice enought to let us check in early which was very nice. However the expedia hotel information was not correct the hotel details site says "Other amenities include washers/dryers, microwaves, and refrigerators." There was no washer/dryer in our room, there was none in our building and there was none in the entire […] hotel according to the housekeeping staff. The wired internet was in our room but could only be used when sitting on the bed as the wire did not reach to the desk. Hotel details say checkout time is noon but the front desk told us check out was 11 am, we had to call for a coffee pot and there was no ice bucket, they gave us coffee, 4 indifivual creamers and some sugar packets but no coffee stirrers. My husband used his tooth brush handle to stir his coffee the first day. After they cleaned our room the first time they took the towel that you use to step on when getting out of the tub and they never replaced it we had to use hand towels after that. The tub is deep and has a hard screen on it and even though I am almost 6 feet tall it was a big step into the shower, Smaller people and older people would almost neet a step ladder to get into the shower. We were in a king guest room with ocean view and it would have been really awesome if there was a screen door so we could leave the door open at night and hear the ocean. The bed was ok we called twice and asked for extra pillows but no one ever brought them. Read more

LOVED the poolside cabanas. Well worth it for the comfort and excellent service.

Wife and I have been coming to MB for a 4 day weekend every summer for past 10 years. Usually stay in pricey Marriott Grande Dunes, and have also stayed in Hilton next door and Embassy Suites two doors down. The Royal Palms is as nice as any of them, and a better value. Unlike other reviewers we got a high room (21st fl) on the north side of the building […] and had an incredible view, one of the best ever! Could see for miles up the coast, and a huge and infinite panoramic view of the ocean. Spent much time on our big balcony. One negative surprise, was we thought we were getting a one bedroom condo, as this is a condo type place. We got a hotel room, though a nice one, well appointed. We had brought tons of the stuff for the kitchen that we couldn;t use, as we had a 3 ft section with a counter top, small refrig and micro. So make sure you know what you are getting. We did peek in a large two bedroom unit, and it was beautiful. Apparently there are not any one bedrooms condos, only two and three. Liked the hallway connection to the Hilton, pools and beach, though pools and beach were very crowded. May not go in early August again. Overall a very nice experience, and and outstanding value for the money. Read more

My husband and I first arrived and entered through the Royale Palms entrance. No one was at the desk, so we had to walk around to the adjoining Hilton to check in our room. We had a one bedroom suite, no. 1606H. Was nice and clean, decent balcony, but the view was somewhat obstructed. We had to sit at an angle to see the ocean. No sunrise or sunset […] from our balcony. If you can, go for oceanfront rather than oceanview room. If you lean over the balcony too far, you can see what your neighbors are doing on their balconies. The air stopped working the first night, but after a front desk call, maintenance came and reset the electrical box. All was well after that. The closet safe malfunctioned with my wallet and computer inside. Had to call the front desk and security came and opened it. Needless to say, I put nothing else in the safe. Comfortable bed, but the pillows were horrible! Wet bar was decent. Bathroom was big. The cleaning person wasn't great. She made the bed, but vacuumed only 1 or 2 times during our 4 day stay, never replaced our bathroom toiletries and we had to ask for wash towels. Hotel restaurant, Cafe Amalfi, was nice. If you go out, definitely go to Cagney's. The lobster & prime rib were melt in your mouth & the baked seafood casserole was to die for! The elevators are slowwwww. 24 floors, 1 elevator and only 1 ice machine on the lobby floor. Go figure. But, overall, it was a nice trip. Would go back, but with an oceanfront room. Read more

Air conditioner wasn't cooling on 1t day so we were moved to a much larger room. The maintenance guy helped us move our stuff&was very helpful. Everything was great! Only thing is the pool area needs more umbrellas,you have to get there really early to race for the umbrellas.

The Royale Palms condos were wonderful! The room was clean and comfortable, loved having the kitchenette (mini fridge/freezer, microwave and sink) so we could eat breakfast before walking to the beach :-) The pools were always jam-packed (lots of kids) but it is way more fun to swim in the ocean, anyway! The Wet Whistle bar outside was fun - you can […] get a drink and take it out on the beach, literally steps away. I had requested a room that was not located on the 1st floor, however, the room I was assigned was on the 1st floor. The friendly lady who checked me in changed that for me in a flash, though! As others have noted the elevators were a bit slow, resulting in some ling lines... But I anticipated that after reading other reviews. All in all, it was a clean, comfy, convenient condo and I would stay at the Royale Palms if I were to return to Myrtle Beach. Read more

I marked the comfort level down because there was no lounge chair in the room. There were two hard chairs around a table, and the bed. I think there was supposed to be one because there was a floor lamp in a corner of the room, but no chair beneath it.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Overall it was a great experience. The room was great and the facilities were well kept. Although there were lots of families, we didn't feel overrun by children. The only less than perfect experience was breakfast in the cafe. We had to wait to be seated because there was no one at the hostess table, and the food was only average. We will definitely […] recommend it to others. Read more

Hotel was fine. We left something of minor value in the room and could not get hotel to respond to our calls to check lost and found. Customer service could be upgraded.

Pros: large resort w/ variety of pools, restaurants, etc; convenient location at north end of Myrtle, so not quite so crazy; best of both worlds, with pool decks offering full view of ocean. Cons: charges $9.95/day for wireless Internet service; "oceanview" rooms may have a small sliver of an ocean view, and only from the balcony, not from the room […] itself My husband is a beach addict, while I'm more of a pool girl, so the close proximity of the resort to the beach allowed us to both enjoy our ideal vacations. I could see him swimming in the ocean while I ordered frozen drinks from the pool bar and read my book from a lounge chair by the pool/hot tub. The only reason I may not return is the wireless Internet charge. In a time when free wireless is pretty much the norm, I found this to be very frustrating. Read more
