Royal Crescent is a residential road in Bath, England, laid out in a crescent. It is famous for the 30 townhouses designed by architect John Wood the Younger, that forms a crescent skirting the road. The townhouses were erected between 1767 and 1774, and stand today as one of the most outstanding examples of Georgian architecture in the United Kingdom.

The houses were originally known as just The Crescent. The "Royal" adjective came about after Prince Frederick, Duke of York and Albany, stayed there at numbers 1 and 16, during the end of the 18th century. No. 1, Royal Crescent is today a museum maintained by the Bath Preservation Trust showcasing the lifestyle in the late 18th century. No. 16 has been combined with No. 15 to form a boutique hotel.
