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.

Pirate Crew Wanted to Make Waves at Plymouth Pirates Weekend 💦🛶🏴‍☠️

Plymouth is gearing up for a swashbuckling spectacle as the highly anticipated Pirates Weekend is set to take place on Saturday and Sunday 9th and 10th May.

Returning this year is the daring Pirate Raft Race in aid of the RNLI, a fleet of crews will launch their handmade vessels from the Barbican’s Commercial Wharf, embarking on a thrilling race that promises excitement, creativity, and plenty of pirate spirit. Each team will take to the water aboard their own uniquely crafted raft, all designed to meet the challenge of being truly sea-worthy.

Pirate crew are wanted to take part by the event organisers Plymouth Waterfront Partnership.

Kim Downer, Deputy CEO and Business Liaison Manager said:

“We’re seeking Pirate crew for The Pirate Raft Race which is set to be a highlight of the weekend, offering fun for all ages and a fantastic opportunity for the community to come together and celebrate Plymouth’s maritime heritage.

The Duke of Cornwall is currently temporarily closed to undertake an essential improvement project. In light of recent misinformation that’s been shared online, we would like to confirm that there is no truth to the rumours about the hotel opening as an asylum hotel. Our improvement works are progressing as planned, and we look forward to welcoming our guests back through our doors when we re-open this summer.
