A Country Classic with Character, Community & Opportunity

Steeped in history and firmly established at the heart of the Dalton community, the Royal Hotel presents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a beautifully renovated country pub, boutique accommodation business and much-loved gathering place, set on an impressive 2,950m² (approx.) freehold landholding.

Dating back to 1865, this iconic Southern Tablelands hotel combines traditional country hospitality with modern improvements. Beyond its established bar and dining operations, the hotel is a popular venue for weddings, private celebrations and community events, supported by a loyal local following and existing functions business.

With multiple income streams and scope to grow, the Royal Hotel offers an incoming owner the opportunity to build on a recognised hospitality destination with genuine character.

The Heart of the Community
The Royal Hotel is a much-loved meeting place for Dalton locals and visitors, with established relationships across local clubs, social groups and regional organisations.

From car and motorcycle club gatherings to weddings, engagement parties, birthdays, baby showers and community celebrations, the hotel hosts a diverse range of events. Its welcoming dining spaces, traditional country atmosphere and inviting beer garden provide an appealing setting for gatherings of all kinds.

The established functions trade offers an existing customer base, repeat patronage and further opportunity to develop the hotel's reputation as a destination for regional celebrations.

Boutique Accommodation - Stay a Little Longer
Complementing the food and beverage operations are four boutique guest rooms featuring traditional furnishings and renovated shared amenities. Appealing to weekend travellers, regional visitors and wedding guests, the accommodation encourages visitors to stay, dine and explore the Southern Tablelands.

A two-bedroom owner's studio on site adds further versatility, providing an attractive option for an owner-operator seeking the convenience of living and working in a picturesque country setting.
