Le Royal Picardie

Excellent location and 5 star service from a 3 star hotel !! The staff here are exemplary (except the guy on reception with a beard who avoids eye contact and lacks customer service skills) the hotel is clean and well presented. Special mention must go to Isabel whose local knowledge is a real asset , make this a must stay if you visit the Somme

Very mixed experience... Room was perfectly acceptable for a 3 star hotel although AC unit's best days were probably in the 1990's and housekeeping was a bit erratic. Hotel is not in centre of Albert which is important because you won't want to dine at hotel & certainly won't want to use the bar because it seemed acceptable to have no beer...? If all you want is a bed then all's fine here

Beautiful hotel with wonderful staff. Nothing was too much trouble - they made us feel like family. My husband had his birthday during our stay and he was spoilt by the staff. Great location, quiet with plenty of parking. Will definitely stay again!

We had a very enjoyable 3 night stay at this hotel. The bedroom was comfortable and cleaned daily. There was a separate bathroom and toilet. Great powerful hairdryer and nice shower including lovely smelling shower gel. Coffee and tea making facilities, although very mean with the milk and for some reason didn’t replenish breakfast tea so I had to ask for this. Breakfast was a bit surreal. On our first day we came down at 9:00 am, there were no plates, breakfast teabags, no milk, no croissants (which we had to ask for), we were not made aware that we could ask for eggs and bacon, and I only realised this was an option after reading the reviews on here. Service was very discreet and was literally do it yourself, which is fine but I think service could be improved in this area. All the items missing were replaced on asking, when I eventually found someone to ask. Nice lounge area and general decor overall good. Lots of parking. Not particularly disabled friendly, no lift to our room and my husband was using crutches so not ideal. I’d suggest the hotel might need to consider accessibility options. Albert has some decent restaurants and it is excellently located for visiting the Somme.

Ideally situated for visiting the Somme area. The newly renovated hotel is clean, comfortable and well appointed. We had everything that we required in our air conditioned room. The breakfast was good, with a wide selection of cereal, fruit and pastries. Bacon and eggs are available on request. The large parking area is easy to access. There was no dinner service while we stayed.

We stayed here for 2 nights in Feb 24 to allow us to visit the Somme Battlefields. Location - very easy to get to with a huge free car park. Easy to find when coming from out of town. We walked into Albert each night which was a 15 min stroll. The staff were lovley - the lady we met on arrival (A lady originally from Bristol so had perfect English!) was as welcoming as could be and this was the same for everyone we encountered, polite, helpfull and efficient. Bedroom well decorated and very comfortable. Breakfast nice selection, the eating area and restauraunt were all super. All in all we loved this hotel, although we spent most of out time out driving around or in the town this was a really nice hotel to come back to. Highly reccomend this and would like to hope we will be back.
