Welcome to the Duke of Cornwall Hotel

There’s a journey of discovery to be taken when you visit The Duke. Since 1863 when it was built as Plymouth’s first luxury hotel through to the present day, the hotel has an intriguing history that is sure to capture your imagination. The style and generous proportions of the hotel evoke the grace of years gone by, while our commitment to excellent service

provides all the modern facilities you would expect. Resting in the heart of Britain’s Ocean City, the hotel is the ideal base from which to explore the rich and varied history of Plymouth or to journey further into the beautiful South West. From the dramatic scenery of Dartmoor to the historic Barbican, home of Plymouth Gin distillery, there are a wealth of sights to enjoy. Based opposite Plymouth Pavilions and just a short walk to the Theatre Royal and the city centre make the Duke the perfect base for business and pleasure visitors alike. Leaving the bustle of the city behind you as you enter The Duke of Cornwall Hotel you immediately get a feel for the hotel in the welcoming decor of the entrance hall, with the ornate plaster, wood panelled walls and impressive stone fireplace, setting the scene for what is to come. You are immediately drawn towards the main reception by the grandeur of the imposing central staircase. Rest assured that The Duke will have a room suited to you. Individually decorated and furnished to the highest standard, each of our seventy two rooms reflect the luxuriant architecture of the hotel, discreetly blending comfort and elegance with modern technology. The Duke offers a number of dining options from its award winning restaurant, to the relaxed atmosphere of the Lounge Bar. For special occasions why not indulge in Tea at the Top – a unique experience to enjoy afternoon tea in our tower with your own butler. We work hard to make sure every guest has a memorable stay; we hope to welcome you in the future.
