Enjoyed our stay here. This is an older hotel but maintains a special charm that you can’t find at other accommodations. The staff was lovely, and we were even allowed to check in early. The breakfast buffet was mediocre and there’s a mildew smell in some places but overall, we had a positive experience.

This hotel was beautiful. The amenities were great and the breakfast was amazing. It’s hidden away from the busy streets of Florence but still in an ideal location that’s a short walking distance to all the major spots. There are so many dining and shopping options minutes away. I would choose Hotel Royal for my next trip to Florence without a doubt.

We spent two nights here in Florence. Room was sufficient in size. Bathroom shower was a bit small. The staff was awesome and the hotel is within a walkable distance from the sights.

Good breakfast. Breakfast staff very friendly. Front desk staff very efficient. Fast check in and out. Convenient to places of interest and the main train station. Felt safe walking around in the area. Facility is overall nice but the shower place door had loose seals and water got out and wet the floor. Besides that everything is good.

ViIla Royal is a beautiful hotel. Very clean and comfortable. Quiet and an easy walk to cafes and sites. The staff were friendly and very helpful. There is on site parking. The pool is great and the courtyard is quiet and cozy. The breakfast was very good and there is a small bar to pick up a beverage to enjoy in the courtyard. I highly recommend this hotel.

I had a lovely stay, everything within the room itself was great. Only issue was the room was right next to the elevator so it was quite noisy with other guests and luggage noise outside

Elegant Palazzo style period property with very high ceilings. Water leaked from where the hose joined the shower head in the bathroom. Kettle on main table had no power socket, so each time I boiled water had to move kettle to bedside table for the socket and then remove it back to the main table. Staff were very professional and helpful. Did not choose breakfast.
