OUR BASE
The Royal Hotel is nestled into exotic south facing gardens overlooking Ventnor's stunning coastline, and is surrounded by cliffs and windswept headlands forming a breathtaking coastline. Take in the beauty with a glass of champagne from their clifftop Riviera Terrace, and admire the grandeur of this historic building, famed for housing crowned heads of Europe. Unsurprising considering it’s elegant charm and it’s proud place amongst just 30 establishments to have been listed in every single Michelin guide since 1911.
