Royal Hotel on IoW sold through Christie & Co


The independently owned and successful ‘Royal Hotel’ on the south coast of the Isle of Wight has been sold, via Christie & Co.

The hotel in Ventnor was built in 1832 and features 51-ensuite bedrooms, an extensive bar and a restaurant with panoramic sea views over the English Channel.

It has been independently owned and operated by William Bailey since 1994, who has been responsible for upgrading the facilities and significantly widening its customer base.

The hotel has numerous accolades including a four-silver-star 2023 AA hotel accreditation and a 2023 AA two Rosette award for culinary excellence.

William Bailey, said: “Whilst it is of course sad to have sold a business with which we have been involved for almost 30 years, now is the right time to step back.

“We wish the new owners every success during their ownership of this great and profitable hotel in a picturesque location on the Isle of Wight. Most importantly we would like to thank the staff, with whom we have shared this memorable journey, for their hard work and dedication over the years.”

Ed Bellfield, regional director at Christie & Co, who managed the sale, added: “The sale of The Royal Hotel represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a phenomenally successful hotel business with significant repeat patronage, largely due to its continued ownership and continuity within the same family since 1994.

“The reputation and success of the business is a testament to the continued re-investment and family stewardship over recent decades combined with its enviable location in the picturesque Isle of Wight. We wish William well on his future and the closing of a long-established chapter.”
