Nine ships of the Royal Navy have borne the name HMS Albion after Albion, an archaic name for Great Britain:
HMS Albion (1763) was a 74-gun third-rate ship of the line launched in 1763. She was converted into a floating battery in 1794 and was wrecked in 1797.
HMS Albion (1798) was the mercantile Albion launched at Sunderland in 1797 that the Royal Navy purchased in 1798 for service as a sloop. The Navy sold her at Sheerness in 1803. She became a transport. It is possible that she foundered in August 1808.

HMS Albion (1898) was a Canopus-class pre-dreadnought battleship launched in 1898 and sold in 1919.
HMS Albion (R07) was a Centaur-class aircraft carrier launched in 1947. She was converted into a commando carrier in 1962, sold in 1973, resold later that year and then broken up.
