Recently cosmetically modernised. Well-equipped rooms. Oddly the windows were all double glazed and sealed - so no possibility of ventilation which is an issue on a sunny day.

The staff and service were excellent. My main problem was I kept hitting my head on the slopping ceiling when using the bathroom. Food was good but the Chicken Curry on the first night contained very little Chicken. However the Lamb and Pork dishes were excellent. I also enjoyed the Proper Job IPA reduced alcohol on draught. Overall a relaxing holiday for my wife and I. We will be back.

Lovely place to stay in the heart of Dartmouth. We went for a Premium Double room overlooking the little harbour, a little bit more expensive, but worth it for the views out over the river, which we could enjoy if the weather wasn't great. As it was, we were lucky, and spent most of our stay out walking. There were a lot of steps up to the bedrooms, but it's an old building...
Very helpful 'receptionist' who seemed to be there all the time... and knew how to sort out every problem...
Great breakfast with a good choice of veggie and non veggie dishes. Staff were very helpful and friendly (when not discussing what they were going to do after work...). also could have done without the pop music one morning..
Parking was fine, and free... but after May 1st it becomes difficult with restrictions everywhere....
Only blemish? The evening meals seem to revolve around the standard St Austell Brewery menu, which I don't find very inspiring for a hotel of this standard? The Sunday roast featured roast potatoes that felt like they had been roasted days earlier...

The redesign of the building is lovely, and we were really looking forward to our stay but it did not quite go to plan. Our room was next to the air vent for the kitchen which was extremely noisy, as were the kitchen deliveries during the night. The restaurant served my pregnant wife a meal with an alcoholic relish despite us checking it with them beforehand several times. The manager denied this the next day until we showed him a photograph! We are trying to support local pubs and hotels but we would not stay here again.

We stayed four nights in February and paid a bit extra for one of the rooms at the front - and did not regret it. The only snag was the room was on the third floor and there is no lift; however, the ever-helpful staff were there to assist with the luggage. The 400 year-old character staircase and extensive gallery made the exertion worthwhile!
The room was beautifully equipped and decorated with a huge bed and comfortable chairs and settee and a window where you could enjoy the ever-changing view. It was wet and cold outside but the room was always cosy and the only problem we had was the mystifying modern heating control on the en-suite radiator!
We ate in the first floor restaurant which enjoyed views across the Dart and had a wide choice for breakfast and evening meals. Here the staff were welcoming, attentive and engaging, as were the house-keepers and reception. In fact it was the staff which made our stay such a pleasure.

Wonderful character hotel on waterfront with amazing history. Rooms well furnished and extremely comfortable beds. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the kitchen provided an excellent vegan breakfast as well. Only drawback is lack of dedicated parking which was fine in the off-season (winter) but would definitely become a challenge when the town is busy in summer.

Great location and convenient. Parking is difficult. Room was clean and tidy. Bed comfortable. No net curtain so either on display or closed blackout curtain. Couldn’t have window open as it was very noisy (boiler, air con or extraction system) and air con was noisy too, so not good for a relaxing lay in! Bathroom needed decent repairs/silicone and some bleach around the taps! Breakfast coffee weak. It wasn’t worth the money.

Ideal location in centre of Dartmouth

This hotel is located in an ideal location in the centre of Dartmouth. The staff were particularly helpful and pleasant. The room was a bit dated and tired but clean, the only window was looking inward over the internal courtyard and it did get a bit stuffy late at night but aircon is available. The breakfast was good and the restaurant has a nice view overlooking the harbour. No parking but the park and ride drops you 100m from the hotel so not a problem.

Nice but ....

Great location, chacterful old building, with excellent service. However, we stayed in a family room which was a bit shabby and needed an update. e.g the toilet roll holder was hanging off the wall, the door lock was temperamental, and the single bed was rickety. We enjoyed our overnight stay but wouldn't have wanted to stay longer.

Weekend away!

We really enjoyed our stay for my partners birthday. Location of the hotel was fantastic and close to local amenities. Staff were friendly, helpful and attentive. The breakfasts were delicious with lots of choice from a full english, eggs benedict, fresh fruit, cereals etc, all good quality. The room was tidy and clean, some areas were worn but that’s expected. We stayed in room 29, only criticism is the room could have been organised differently but other than that it was lovely. We loved the character of the building, and I can imagine in the summer it would be gorgeous. We will definitely come back again!

Overall our stay was very pleasant, staff were very friendly and our room was comfortable. On the 3 nights we stayed, we found the breakfast to be unacceptable. On the first morning, some of the items were cold, ie beans and mushrooms. On the second morning we did change our choice and mentioned to the lovely lady that if possible can our food be hot, it was warn. On our final morning, we waited 1 hour for our food be served, now you would expect after this period of time it would be piping hot, how disappointed we were to find it cold again and my order was incorrect which left my husband eating his meal while I waited for my gluten free option to arrive.

Lovely place, but attic room needs attention

Everything was fantastic...except our room was attic room with an air conditioner that did not work. It has been broken for some time as there is a laminated sign advising not to use. We also had the seagulls right outside the window, squawking.
I think management should rectify these two issue, first fix the air conditioner and second put some netting up over the chimney stacks so the birds can't perch up there.
It's a poor decision from management to be booking out this room until these issues are resolved.
Otherwise, it's a wonderful place to stay.

Returning to Dartmouth after living here for a long time, the Royal Castle didn't disappoint. Superbly located in the middle of town, the stay was fantastic from start to finish. The staff were so friendly and helpful, finding us tables to sit at, carrying our bags up multiple staircases, helping us with enquiries all the staff went above and beyond. Breakfast was delicious, smoked salmon especially! The bar downstairs had a super atmosphere and the food was delicious and the wines, though a little pricey were superb! The bedrooms were super comfortable and a great size! Couldn't fault anything, we will be certainly coming back soon!

I've stayed at this hotel many times over the past decade, as I have a boat in one of the local marinas.

It has a great location and was traditionally the social hub of the town. Like most hospitality businesses it struggled to adapt to COVID and seems to be really suffering staff shortages.

Whilst I'm sympathetic to these challenges - not being able to offer a cooked breakfast and having room cleaning only on request is not really acceptable for a hotel of this quality. Traditionally the service in this hotel was 'quirky' -as the owner was a bit 'Marmite' - however, one always felt that there was someone in control and real ownership of any issues. I got the sense that the team in place from St.Austell Breweries (who took the hotel over a couple of years ago) are just 'doing a job'. And not a particularly good one.

Charming and romantic

My husband and I stayed at the lovely Castle hotel for 1 night . We were overjoyed with the room upgrade and the fact that we could check in early. The hotel is obviously 100’s of years old so you should expect a few creaky floorboards etc BUT this simply adds to the charm. It is a unique and romantic place to stay that is very clean and has been decorated to reflect the era of the hotel. The view from our room over the marina was beautiful. The downstairs pub is very cosy and perfect for a winters day drink or meal and you can even help yourself to board games. We thoroughly enjoyed our cooked breakfast which was delicious and cooked beautifully. Thank you so much to the hotel for a lovely stay - Dartmouth is beautiful and quaint.

Charming hotel

First-time stay in this hotel and it exceeded all expectations. Staff were friendly, approachable and happy to help. Our room was clean, bright and beautifully decorated. The bed was huge and comfortable. Bathroom had a shower and a bath so we were spoilt for choice. Breakfast was top-class. Excellent produce used and cooked very well. We ate in the restaurant for an evening meal and it was excellent. Great choice of menu to suit everyone and the standard was very high. The hotel is very old and the floors are out of level because of its age. This adds to the charm and we loved the feel of the place. We had an attic room and it’s worth noting the four flights of stairs and no lift. There are no ground floor bedrooms. Any accessibility issues and this is not the hotel for you. The restaurant is on the first floor too. This didn’t affect us and we had a wonderful stay. Will definitely stay again.

Not the same!

Have been coming to The Royal Castle for over 30 years. It is difficult to see any improvements that the new owners have made. Certainly Rm 29 still suffers from extreme low water pressure and a door that won’t fully open because the bed frame and 2 bedside cabinets are too big for the room.
The now complete lack of hotel parking facilities means it’s unlikely we’ll stay at the Royal Castle again.
