Commentary

The Royal Hotel was built in 1877 with an entrance in the centre of the block on Tay Street and consisted of about 28 rooms. The Royal Hotel Bar entrance was on the corner of Tay Street & Robert Street. The hotel liquor licence was removed in 1882 after only a short existence and a public house licence was substituted. The hotel contents were sold off in 1882 and again in 1884 after which the hotel part of the property remained empty until 1890 when, with the exception of the Bar, it was converted into housing. Part of the property was used as the first Roman Catholic Mission Hall. Some of the rooms fronted on to Tay Street and some were over the first shops in Robert Street. The building appears to have been flexibly divided - rooms seem to have been allocated to different houses as needs changed. At times there were as many as 14 different tenancies, at others as few as 11. Because of this it is impossible to say who was living in which particular rooms at any given time. A 'best guess' is given on these pages. In 1936 the whole property was declared unfit for habitation. At this point it was found that some of the valuation roll entries were duplicates. The Town Council ordered alterations to give 2 x 3-apartment houses and 6 x 2-apartment houses, and these were in place by 30 September 1938. There is no way to link the pre-1938 division of rooms to the post-1938 arrangement, so these pages show the properties as two separate listings. The buildings were demolished in 1971-2.

The Royal Hotel Bar continued to use the name 'Royal Hotel' even after the rooms had been converted into housing. The alcohol licence was removed in 1922 after which the premises were operated as Refreshment Rooms until the War in 1939.
