The Royal Hotel
Barnstaple Street, Bideford, EX39 4AE, United Kingdom – Great location - show map
The location was perfect because I was attending the Braund Society's 35th reunion and we all walked the lanes of Bideford and saw the cottages and shops that had belonged to our ancestors. The old fashioned style of chandeliers, swag drapes and lovely entrance and foyer give a good feeling of old fashioned values that is very comforting.

This historic hotel has first-class food, friendly service and a great location close to North Devon's sights, including Clovelly village and the picturesque Tarka Trail for walkers and cyclists.
The Royal Hotel is at the eastern end of ancient Bideford Bridge and close to public transportation. It is easy to explore the center of Bideford and the quayside, where you can catch a boat to Lundy Island.
The hotel is associated with the 17th-century Court of Assize and the author, Sir Charles Kingsley, who wrote parts of 'The Water Babies' and 'Westward Ho!' while staying here.
At The Royal Hotel, rooms are clean, comfortable and have 24-hour room service. One of the hotel's famous features is the oak-paneled Kingsley Room, with its ornate, sculpted ceiling.
