A warm welcome to the
ROYAL HOTEL
Established since 1875

Heritage Boutique Hotel
Sydney's best kept secret!


Dear guests,
We may likely meet during your stay here since the Royal Hotel is my beloved home, and I live here with my little toy poodle Baby Rango and Billy Bean, the siamese cat.



The Royal Hotel has been in our family for half a century. Before my great aunt Irene acquired it, the hotel had belonged to the Heron family which cared for it for two generations.

Come enjoy our wonderful vintage setting, a place steeped in history
with a unique decor and a homely feel.

A proprety from the Victorian Era...
It is quite rare nowadays to cross paths with a property which is rooted straight from British Royalty, as it also rightfully belonged to our former Prime Minister Sir John A. Macdonald, for between his two terms he was living here, at the heart of Sydney, while he was involved with the beginnings of the Canadian railway project.
We have been hosting guests for over 150 years

Back in those days, there was no electricity around here, nor running water, and also no cars. A stable for horses was a must, and newcomers would arrive by boats just a steep down the hotel. Through the years, the hotel had many renovations and beautifully done upgrades.
Welcome to the Royal Hotel, a cute little Inn stepped in history since the 1800’s.
