Norfolk Royale Hotel, Bournemouth

历史

In 1870, two large villas on Richmond Hill in Bournemouth, built by the town’s founders Sir George Ivison Tapps and his son Sir George William Tapps-Gervis, were amalgamated to make Stewarts Hotel. During the 19th century, the Stewarts Hotel was a firm favourite with Henry Fitzalan-Howard (1847–1917), the 15th Duke of Norfolk and became the first choice for the Duke & Duchesses’ Summer retreat. The only record of the Duke & Duchesses visits appears in the 1883 Bournemouth Guardian And Visitors Guide under the heading of “Fashionable Visitors” where the publication announced that, “The Duke and Duchess of Norfolk are staying at Stewarts Hotel”.

In honour of its regular VIP guests and in tribute to the major role that the Dukes of Norfolk has played in English life over the years, the Stewarts Hotel changed its name to The Norfolk Royale Hotel in 1910.

In 1974, the Norfolk Royale Hotel qualified for listed building status including the art nouveau veranda, which was added to the front of The Norfolk Royale in 1903.
