Description
The Belle Vue Royal Hotel is a three-storey building with a basement and attic, featuring an 11-bay facade made of painted stucco, with a part rusticated ground floor. The left side of the building incorporates the former cross range and right-hand pavilion of No 24, while the right-hand seven bays are stepped up. The roof is covered with slate and has bracket eaves and ridge cresting on the cross range, along with a pediment treatment on the gable end. There are rubble chimney stacks.
The sash windows have been replaced with modern glazing but still have their original architraves, which include scrolled and moulded keystones. Some windows on the second floor are blocked, and there is a modern bay window on the left. A modern loggia extends forward to the street, and the entrance is offset to the right. The basement features both sash and casement windows.
The right gable end is part scribed stucco, while the rear is made of rubble with mixed rendered courtyard buildings that can be accessed from Corporation Street. The building also has arched-headed stained glass windows.
