“A traditional hotel boasting a fabulous location overlooking the River Dart and just steps from the castle. Elegant rooms are traditionally dressed with antique furniture, patterned wallpaper and chandeliers. An atmospheric fire lit restaurant specialises in grills. A charming stay.”

Royal Castle Hotel

With its crenelated white façade, illustrious history and prominent position on the waterfront, the Royal Castle is one of Dartmouth’s most iconic buildings. Its 25 traditionally decorated rooms are comfortable and stylish, and views from the river-facing rooms are exceptional.
