“Centralized location for Convention groups. Not much else.”

I am not surprised that the last Tripadvisor review made for this hotel was more than two years ago in 2019. Conventioneers dominate the type of clientele this hotel attracts Let's start with the good points: Central location, clean rooms, view of the nearby mountain, and proximity to fast-food restaurants plus the famous Botanical Gardens. If you're a regular tourist then you will be annoyed by the convention-goers and their mob-like behavior as they dominate the buffet and outdoor dining area / pool. This hotel has plenty of cleaning staff but be informed that they are uncharacteristically dressed in black. We stayed for three nights, and every morning around 10am about 12 cleaning staff would sit on the floor in front of my 5th-floor elevators. Eventually realizing they were hotel staff, my wife and I became less startled each morning as we alighted the elevators after breakfast. A different kind of surprise was visible in the afternoons as similar staff dressed in black can be seen sitting on the emergency stairs while smoking and chatting as we waited for the elevators to come. I don't know what is worse: chairs & staff routinely present in the emergency stairwell or the fact they are smoking and looking back at us as we wait for those elevators. My blue-colored toothbrush was thrown away one day as it sat next to the wash basin among the white-colored complimentary hotel toiletries. Sure, the bristles looked worn, but I think it is my decision whether I should throw it away or not. Ironically, an empty water bottle was not thrown away that same day. Lastly, do be aware that the hotel feels old although the walls are clad in marble. The utensils feel worn and are sometimes still dirty. Having said that, if you study your potential hotels before visiting a city, then the Royal Hotel in Bogor is not your type of accommodation; at any price. You deserve better.

“Average Hotel with Average Service”

The Hotel is located across the road from the Botanical Gardens, the room we had was located at the front of the hotel. At night time the noise from the main road sounds like you are at a motorbike racing track, unbelievable. The stay included breakfast which was very good.
