Description
The former Regent Hotel is a three-storey commercial building, constructed with white-painted stucco and featuring two bays. It has a raised parapet and a slate roof with a rendered stack at the left end. The windows are positioned to the left: the second floor has two 4-pane sash windows with horns, the first floor features two canted oriel windows with hipped slate roofs, and the ground floor has an altered 19th-century shop front with a house door to the right. Above the house door is a short raised band. The shopfront includes a centrally recessed 20th-century door with an overlight, a narrower door to the right, and five timber pilasters that frame the doors and plate glass shop windows. There is a fascia with a modillion cornice and large scrolled brackets above the pilasters. To the right, an arched doorway leads to the upper room of the Old Town Hall, featuring a 20th-century door, a radiating-bar fanlight, and an arched hoodmould.
The rear north elevation, facing the churchyard, is made of roughcast rubble with a close-eaved roof. It has a recessed section on the left that is clearly medieval, while the rest is from the early 19th century. This elevation includes a long 18-pane stair light in the center and a 12-pane sash window on the right for each floor, along with a basement sash window. The medieval section has a blocked raised doorway similar to others in Tenby, constructed with single stones for the jambs, square blocks for the bases and imposts, and three stones forming the arch. To the right, there is a late medieval square-headed stone-mullioned window with two lights that have arched heads and incised spandrels; an incision in the spandrel to the right suggests that there was once another light on that side. The east return wall features a first-floor 12-pane sash window with a brick head, a remnant of slate-hanging in the angle at the rear of the Old Town Hall, and a medieval small single light at ground level. There is a 20th-century window in the basement.
The interior has been much altered, with a staircase on the right leading up to the first floor of the Old Town Hall. This staircase cuts through a medieval pointed vault, which is visible in the side wall and on the ground floor of the adjoining Old Town Hall.
