Victorian Elegance
in the Heart of Historic Kumara

The Theatre Royal Hotel is the West Coast`s only fully restored gold miners’ hotel, and once world-renowned theatre. Our historic gold rush hotel features six themed ensuite accommodation rooms. Each room is unique, with its blend of Victorian decor, antique furnishings, modern amenities and West Coast charm. We also offer a range or restored and replica cottage accommodation to suit every budget. Our Restaurant & bar is open 7 days a week and we have great facilities for cyclists.

Whether you are a history buff, an intrepid explorer, a Kiwi neighbour, a discerning traveller, or fun lover, the Theatre Royal Hotel knows how to look after you! We invite you to come and discover the colourful past of Kumara, which featured the Last Great Gold Rush and was the home of N.Z.’s longest serving Premier, Richard John Seddon.
