The Industrial Revolution saw the city become a major trading post and passenger hub for people travelling to and from America. The city's Barbican was one launching point of The Mayflower and the stunning Royal Citadel on Plymouth Hoe was built after the English Civil War as a naval defense.Visitors will be able to experience all of the city's historical landmarks and attractions. Not to be missed is the city's Grade I listed lighthouse, Smeaton's Tower, which offers spectacular views over Plymouth Sound.
Dartmoor National Park is on the city's doorstep and is well worth a visit with one of the many guided tours that are available.Culture vultures need look no further than the Theatre Royal and The Drum. The former is the largest in the South West and regularly stages musicals, opera and ballet performances. The Merchant's House also gives a unique insight into the city's trade history.The newly rebuilt Drake Circus shopping centre is the first port of call for all shoppers out there, with all of your regular high street names under one roof. Plymouth's own Independent Quarter offers a fantastic unique shopping experience with a vast array of independent retailers selling the best that Devon has to offer.Whether looking to take advantage of the city's coastline, to have an adventure holiday in Dartmoor or simply for somewhere to unwind after a busy day of meetings in the city, our Plymouth hotels are just what you need.
