The Royal Hotel is a hotel building in Perth, Western Australia on the corner of Wellington and William streets. It was built in 1882.
In 1894, the hotel was known as the Schruth's Royal Hotel.[1][2] A major upgrade of the facade of the building was completed in 1906,[3][4] and it was then bought by the Swan Brewery in 1925.[5]
The hotel building remains despite extensive changes to its surroundings being made throughout the twentieth century.[6] Following extensive renovations, a pub occupying the building opened on 16 November 2019 under the name The Royal;[7] a different pub in East Perth carries the same name.
