The late Princess Grace often stayed at the Shelbourne Hotel on St. Stephens Green in Dublin.I believe they now have a luxurious Suite named after her.

The Connaught Hotel in London was originally called the Prince of Saxe Coburg Hotel. In 1917 it was renamed the Connaught Hotel. Did Queen Victoria's son, Prince Arthur, the Duke of Connaught ever visit the Connaught Hotel?

i saw this article in a spanish newspaper on the chain "paradores" which are hotels belonging to a public society in historic houses and properties. they speak in the article about the royal connections of several of the properties and also about several royal guests who stayed in them, amongst which:
- the king and queen of spain stayed at the parador in Carmona
- the prince of asturias stayed at Parador de Pontevedra, when at the navy
- "the monegasque princes" (I assume albert and charlene) visited the Parador de Granada
- charles and diana visited toledo and stayed in a parador (they don't specify which one exactly)
- the queen of the belgians (i assume fabiola) stayed at the parador of Santiago de Compostela.

There is a story- perhaps apocryphal- that the first meeting of Edward and Wallis occurred at the Hotel del Coronado (San Diego) when he visited there as PoW in 1920.
No sparks flew then, though.
Prince Ranier, Grace, and their children frequently dined at the Hostellerie Alpenrose near Gstaad.

HM Queen Elizabeth is greeted with a handkiss by Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands. Location: Claridge Hotel in London. Queen Juliana and Prince Bernhard moved loads of palace inventory to Claridge's, also the household staff was moved to London. The lackeys outside belong to the Dutch royal household.

From 1903 to 1909, King Edward VII of Great Britain took a suite of rooms at the Weimar Hotel in Marienbad, a small town in Bohemia.
The rooms were specially furnished for Edward VII in a different style for each succeeding visit.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, and Prince George, stayed in Wharekauhau Lodge in April 2014. Kate, William and George stayed in a cottage suite, in this white-washed hideaway on its little 5000 acre farm!

During the summer of 1914, two of Kaiser Wilhelm II's sisters spent time in England.
Queen Sophie of Greece arrived at the Grand Hotel on June 19th for a stay of several weeks.
Sophie was later joined by her sister Margaret, Princess Frederick Charles of Hesse-Cassel.
