We thoroughly enjoyed our three days at The Royal Duchy. The hotel is beautiful and every member of the staff went above and beyond to be friendly and helpful. Our room was very comfortable and the breakfasts were delicious.

A good mid range hotel with open views across the bay. Very clean with pleasant staff. The manageress in charge of breakfast on Sunday morning, 19/5/24, was the exception. For her, my arrival at 07:30 presented a challenge with which she coped with a marked lack of grace. My request for a sea view table in the totally empty restaurant also proved a ‘problem’. Such a shame when one person lets down the efforts of the team

Fabulous Room ( 214 ) with stunning uninterrupted views of the sea. Terrace Bar and the dinning experience excellent. Wanted the weekend to be a little bit special to celebrate my Wife’s Birthday and the RDH did just that.

Comfortable but lacking personal service
Posted 16 Feb 2024 on HotelsThe room was small but well appointed despite having a rough view out the back. Getting into the small bathroom was a tad difficult as you had to walk in sideways due to the gap between the basin and wall being just 38cm. At breakfast on the 2nd morning I ordered porridge but was to to get the required honey from the self-service buffet - it was a large Kilner Jar and transferring it and then the Marmalade into little jars was a really messy affair and unnecessary if they had provided little jars on the table like they had for jam. I ordered the hot toast with the cooked breakfast - it never arrived. I asked for 2 sausages as I decided against including black pudding, tomato and beans - I got just the one! I'm not sure why but there was only green back bacon and no smoked bacon on offer- Why? The staff at breakfast were rather indifferent as was the receptionist all bland and unsmiling - not very welcoming that's for sure! I've always held Brend Hotel in high regard as I knew the original owner Percy Brend back in the 1980's - it seems the service and quality has slipped from his time.
