we are a young thirties couple with 3 kids and have come to the royal duchy for the last three years around or on valentines day. It is our once a year treat to enjoy each others company away from the the kids to just totally unwind for the weekend.Firstly i am astonished how nobody has really raved about the... more

Stayed in the Armada Suite for a couple of nights. Good views of the sea, spacious bedroom & lounge. 2 full bathrooms – one with a low level shower, the other with a “normal” level shower. IMHO the bathroom suites could do with being updated – they’re a bit 80’s, but clean & functional. Staff are friendly & polite. They’re... more

Can't really understand the negative reviews on here. We stayed in a basic inland facing room as we only live a few miles away and this was treat so we could have a nice evening out in Falmouth. The room was very nice indeed and furnished to a high standard with flat screen tv. The bed was extremely comfortable and... more

It surprises me how this hotel can be designated a “Four Star” establishment being little more than a large “Guest House” on a busy road. Sure the staff are dressed for the part, but there’s nothing here to justify what I would expect from a luxury hotel. It’s just pretentious. Location? Well, I wouldn’t consider being situated on a busy... more

What a rip-off! My wife and I have just spent Christmas in this overrated four-star establishment. £1500 plus lighter in the wallet and I am struggling to recall anything memorable about the experience. The fancy brochure promised cabaret entertainment but this all happened in the combined lounge / dining room with the ‘artists’ playing to mostly empty tables by 9.30.... more

It saddens me to write a critical review about this hotel as my wife and I have had enjoyable visits here in the past, but four days spent here over Christmas this year was a complete waste of money. I suppose that at a mere £568 per person we shouldn't have expected much as this was the basic 'Inland Facing'... more

We enjoyed our stay at this excellent hotel. A second visit for us. We spent a week at the Royal Duchy in late September. The staff are friendly and efficient, the food excellent, the bed room was large, clean and nicely furnished. The new lift was a great iimprovement. We enjoyed the swimming pool, table tennis, although the lighting was... more

We decided to take a short early-spring break and were recommended to the Royal Duchy by two people. We bless them, because this hotel was quite superb. Every little detail had been covered and we could not fault the hotel in any way. Our top-floor room was spotlessly clean, very spacious and comfortable, and the staff were, without exception, friendly,... more

I regard this as one of the best hotels I have stayed in within the UK. The most outstanding feature of this hotel are the staff who without exception were the most friendly, polite, courteous and efficient staff that I have experienced in any hotel in the UK or elsewhere . On arrival, we were warmly greeted by the doorman... more

Location,location,location. The hotel overlooks the sea , is 5 minutes walk from a decent beach, yet is only 5 minutes walk to the centre of Falmouth. Car parking was more than adequate, and reception was well manned, with helpful efficient staff. Having stayed at another hotel within the group, this time we booked a superior room at a premium of... more
