The Royal Hotel. Ross-on-Wye

A famous landmark in the world-renowned town of Ross-on-Wye, The Royal Hotel is a grade-2 listed building which dispenses hospitality to guests from around the globe.

Since being built in 1837, the hotel is said to have been frequented by many famous names, including Queen Victoria. That said, its main historic credential is without doubt its connection to Charles Dickens who is thought to have planned his American biography while a guest. TripAdvisor | The Royal Hotel
