The Ultimate Island Experience


"The Royal is a handsome, four-storey building fronted by a pretty wrought iron veranda that overlooks Ventnor’s Esplanade and the English Channel." The Telegraph Travel

Surrounded by cliffs and windswept headlands forming an especially beautiful part of the Coastal footpath and English Channel, Ventnor possesses an unrivalled and enduring beauty.

The Royal Hotel - named "Ultimate Hotel Experience" by Red Funnel - is nestled into exotic south facing gardens overlooking Ventnor's stunning coastline. For the best al fresco views, head for the clifftop Riviera Terrace. The nearby beach, heated outdoor pool and daily high tea make this a great choice for families.

Built in 1832, The Royal is one of the most historic hotels on the island was the first Isle of Wight hotel to achieve Four AA Stars and has held 2 AA Rosettes for excellent food for over 28 years.
