                                            Located directly on the River Thames in the heart of the historic market town of Gravesend, this stunning building was built in 1665 by the Duke of York. Operating as a hotel since 1842 we've had many important visitors, including the Duke of Wales in 1863, when he greeted Princes Alexandra and her family to the UK shores before marrying her.
