Welcome to The Royal Hotel!

Stevenson, the Royal Hotel is a national and regional treasure, owned and operated by the Ashley Family for over 3 generations, the Royal Hotel, is definitely your home away from home!
Built in the 1860s, by a sea captain, with coral limestone from reefs surrounding the island of Ovalau (the cement walls of the hotel are the original foundations), the Royal Hotel is the last of it's kind from Fiji's turbulent past.
The Hotel Dining room is only open for all day breakfast and light snacks, as we encourage guests to use restaurants in town. It is the hotel policy to support local business.

The Royal was constructed in such a way that each of it’s Colonial Style rooms, in the main building is unique. Rooms facing the ocean, a favourite with past ship's captains, who wanted to keep a watchful eye on their anchored ships, have individual sitting rooms with beautiful views of the Koro Sea and neighbouring islands. Rooms facing landward have their own balconies that look out to the rugged mountains of Ovalau.
Apart from our Colonial Style rooms in the main building, we also offer a wide range of accommodation to suit every traveller. These include:
Air conditioned self-contained one bedroom waterfront cottages
Air conditioned self-contained 2 bedroom garden cottage
Spacious self contained air-conditioned Garden apartments
Air-conditioned poolside studio cottages
Our Budget accommodation is housed in a large cottage with wrap around verandahs, situated in the gardens
The Royal was one of more than 60 pubs that lined Levuka's rowdy waterfront, catering to every imaginable traveller. There were frequent raids from warring tribes, violent altercations among the settlers, disease and blackbirders trading their human cargo. The Hotel's front steps were often the site of many slave auctions.
Times may have changed, but the Royal remains. Situated adjacent to the waterfront, in the heart of Levuka town (the Old Capital of Fiji), The Royal Hotel represents the finest embodiment of Levuka's Colonial past.
Old fashioned touches such as home-style cooking, polished hardwood floors, a century old billiard table, Fijian artefacts and historical photos all add to the character and atmosphere of the Royal Hotel, making your stay here a truly memorable and unique experience, Is a good place to stay and walk see the island.
