Step back in time and immerse yourself in the rich history of the Royal Hotel. From the Gallant Lads of Carbrook who used this esteemed establishment as their base, to its striking architectural features that have garnered valuable publicity, this hotel is a true gem. Take a glimpse into the past with black and white photos showcasing iconic landmarks such as the Town Hall seen from the Royal Hotel in Durban. The bustling Smith Street, featuring our very own Royal Hotel, paints a picture of vibrant city life. But our reach extends beyond Durban's borders. Join us on a journey to London where you'll find another Royal Hotel standing tall amidst the hustle and bustle of this majestic city. And let's not forget about Dinard - an idyllic beachside town where our very own Royal Hotel has been capturing hearts since 1913. The Transvaal War left its mark on Ladysmith but it was here that Sir George White gallantly held his own against all odds. Witness his bravery through lithographs depicting scenes from this historic siege. Our hotel has also played host to distinguished guests like the Ex-Khedive of Egypt at Naples, adding an air of prestige to our already illustrious reputation. Closer to home, we welcomed back heroes from South Africa as they returned victorious from war. These brave Bristol Engineers found solace within our walls before reuniting with loved ones. Even adversity couldn't dampen our spirit - witness how we rose from ashes after a devastating fire at Plymouth's Theatre and Royal Hotel through intricate engravings that capture both tragedy and resilience. And for those seeking lighter entertainment, join Mr Bowpots on his Roast Goose Adventure depicted in charming engravings that will surely bring a smile to your face. Come experience history come alive at the Royal Hotel - where stories are etched into every corner and memories are made for generations to come.
