Really stunning view from a lovely, clean hotel room, with a fabulous bathroom. Staff were amazing, friendly, professional and helpful. Breakfast was gorgeous and the owner was chatting to everyone too in the stunning dining room. It felt indulgent having our car parked for us and Dartmouth itself is lovely.

I stayed in the Royal castle with my bridesmaids before my wedding and then for 2 days with my new husband afterwards. My room was Brilliant. The best view in Dartmouth, massive bed, lovely bathroom. Spacious, clean and luxurious. My bridesmaids stayed in a sweet double, that they adored. Nothing was too much hassle for the staff at The Royal... More

We stopped off here for a nice glass of wine and a beer, wine was top notch as was the beer. On a whim we decided a bowl of mussels was in order for the journey home and we were not disappointed, absolutely delicious and wondefully fresh. The bar staff could do with some training in the wine menu, it... More

Fantastic position overlooking the boatfloat and we were upgraded to a room with a river view. Room and bed very comfortable and little thoughtful touches like shoe cleaning tackle and needle and thread provided. Breakfasts were excellent and we ate in the bar both nights we were there. Food very good altogether and lots of locals eating there. Usually a... More

We found the royal castle hotel by chance as we arrived in to Dartmouth off the easy car ferry across the harbour. The professional staff there offered us a choice of several rooms at a great price of 130 pounds p.n down from their rack rate of 220 pounds! They also take you car and park it for you round... More

If all hotels were run like this one the world would be a happier and more relaxed place. It had all the little extras that make your stay feel special. The staff were very helpful and friendly, the food was very good and we had a room with a river view, the staff even park your car for you. The... More

A friendly hotel with excellent service in an unbeatable position on the quay in Dartmouth. My husband and I spent 3 nights here at the end of March 2012 when the weather was more like one would expect in August! Our room was lovely, the food was the best we had in Dartmouth (we wished we had eaten here on... More

We had a one night stay as a treat at the end of a busy week for us both. The hotel is right on the quay in the beautiful little town of Dartmouth. Our room was one of the inside facing rooms which face onto the opened up courtyard. It's not unlike a Moroccan Riyad! Nicely furnished if a bit... More
