I have stayed at this hotel before with my wife for a short break. I often come to Falmouth on business and decided this time to stay over rather than do down and back to the Midlands. They did me a very good deal indeed - I arrived late so missed dinner but the check in was so welcoming my ”chitty” was there waiting and I was offered a lift with luggage. Room 228 for the night sadly but understandably not overlooking the sea was lovely very clean and superbly appointed. Breakfast was good lots of staff on duty and as usual nothing was too much trouble. I think the hotel has been refurbed and updated since my last visit - it's presented delightfully and of course has this fabulous position. All in all it was like being wrapped up in an old familiar warm blanket and I will come back as soon as I can.

My friend and I, had spent many holidays at the Victoria and Belmont Brend Hotels at Sidmouth and we were looking forward to spending 4 nights in the Royal Duchy at Falmouth. We arrived to brilliant sunshine and welcoming staff in reception and had very nice single rooms overlooking the sea. We had chosen half board and were looking forward to our evening meal. Sadly the dinners did not come up to expectations of the AA Rosettes. The fish swam in a watery sauce, Duck that was chewy and overcooked, Sirloin steak,chips OK, but only1 mushroom Kale, loads of watercress Overall the lack of nice vegatables was appalling. Deserts !!!! On our first two nights the deserts we ordered were not available we were told we were unlucky because everyone had chosen the same our 3rd choice had been put aside Sticky toffee pudding, it was a shame the Pudding was stone cold and just about defrosted. Coffee was not included in the deal so there was no atmosphere in the lounge and the ”icing on the cake” the free glass of wine I was given was on my final bill. It certainly was not worth the £330 we paid per night very disappointing.
