    quirky property
    stunning river view

    charming stay but some quirks in service

    The quirky property is full of original features, making it a unique place to stay. The breakfast blew me away with high-quality local products, especially enjoying the crunchy toast by the window.

    Charming experience with fantastic views

    I recently stayed in a double room with a river view and was captivated by the quirky charm of the property. The room was well-appointed and comfortable, and the breakfast provided a delicious variety of local produce that set the tone for the day. The central location allowed easy exploration of Dartmouth, making every outing enjoyable.

    river view
    friendly staff
    lack of lift
    noisy air conditioning

    Staying at The Royal Castle Hotel in Dartmouth was a mixed bag for me. The location right in the heart of Dartmouth made exploring so easy. My room had a lovely river view, which I appreciated. The bed was huge and comfy, perfect for a restful night. I enjoyed the breakfast, especially the fresh fruit and pastries. I had some issues that need addressing. The lack of lift really made it hard to get my bags to the third-floor room. the air conditioning was quite noisy, which disrupted my sleep. On top of that, I noticed some plates being served in a rather unappealing way, like my fish on a wooden board. It felt off for such a nice place. I think with a few adjustments like improving the lift access and addressing the food presentation, this hotel could truly shine. I would consider returning but would definitely request a lower floor room next time.

    breathtaking views
    delicious options
    accommodating staff
    workout stairs
    no lift

    The stay was quite enjoyable, with breathtaking views of the sea from our lovely room. The food at breakfast was fantastic, offering a range of delicious options from fresh pastries to a full cooked breakfast. The staff was accommodating, especially when we needed help with our dog. the stairs were a bit of a workout, especially after a day of exploring the nearby attractions like the Dartmouth Museum.

    Fantastic location with friendly service

    The location of the hotel is unbeatable, right in the heart of everything in Dartmouth, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive throughout our stay. Our room was tidy and clean, and we particularly enjoyed the delicious breakfast options that offered plenty of choice. the uneven organization of our room made things slightly less convenient than expected.

    gorgeous sea views
    indoor play area
    long trek

    Had an amazing weekend with friends! We enjoyed the gorgeous sea views and spent hours at the indoor play area, which kept us entertained. Breakfast options were great, whether you want something quick or a full spread. The staff was friendly and always eager to help. Ideal spot for a group getaway with plenty of spaces to chill.

    The only downside was the long trek to the top floors with no lift, especially after a day out. Lots of stairs may be tough if you have heavy bags.

    noisy conditions

    Noise from the stairway intrudes through open windows, making it hard to get a good night's sleep, especially in warmer weather. Some areas, like the bathrooms, show signs of neglect with mold on surfaces and poorly performed repairs that leave an impression of tiredness rather than luxury. While the view is stunning, the overall cleanliness and maintenance seem to need addressing.

    stunning breakfast

    Charming, Charming, Charming

    The views from my river view room were absolutely stunning, with shimmering water and boats gliding by. I basked in the comfort of a beautifully designed space, complete with all the amenities you could want, especially top-notch tea and coffee. Breakfast was a delight, featuring an array of options that powered me through my days of adventure!

    breakfast

    This place was just an optimal selection for a hurried visit in Dartmouth with best value. The breakfast had the best yoghurts I’d ever tasted. Be prepared for noise from adjoining rooms, especially at night.

    would love to come back

    The loft room was comfy with clean linens and a flat-screen TV. I enjoyed the private bathroom with a good shower. Breakfast had a nice selection, including various fruits and pastries. Staff were really sweet and made our special occasion memorable. The historic building added charm, and the location was perfect for exploring.
