We stayed here at the beginning of November after reading good reviews on here. Very disappointed though Good points - lovely elegant hotel, great views, clean, beds & towels changed daily (very small towels though and no bathrobes, which you would expect in a hotel like this). Great location close to the centre and ideal for train station. BUT, now... more

We were actually booked into the sister hotel the Grand de Ville, but one of their floors was out of comission and as we had booked a premier room and one wasn't available they moved us to the Royal, The Grande de Ville looked wonderful and the front desk staff were great, but the Royal was definitely better. It was... more

This was our second visit to the Royal. Beautiful hotel located in prime location overlooking Bay of Sorrento. Pool overlooks the bay, or go ot the lower deck and swim in the bay. Rooms are large and very comfortable. Has old world, traditional feel with traditional inlaid furniture and Italian tile floors. Rooms immaculate. Staff are very friendly and helpful.... more

We stayed in a room with partial view of the sea for 5 nights. The hotel is very conveniently located, as it is less than 10 min walk to the train station (trains going to Naples, Pompei, etc. ; buses going to the Amalfi coast) and less than 10 minutes walk to the city centre.

We found this hotel to be much as all the other travellers have stated. Very grand in apearance and very close to all amenities. However, not one person has said that the hotel is situated on the main road into Sorento and the traffic is very busy. The road runs right across the front of the hotel and is very... more

Not sure about the tiles though, must be fashionable in Italy!1 thing though,the internet station they... more

We got married in June at the Cloisters in Sorrento and stayed at this lovely hotel.At first we thought the hotel was far too posh for us but it turned out just right... The hotel was just in the right position(book a sea view)!!!!5 min walk to the main square and 15min walk down to the Marina for Capri etc... more

We stayed for our Honeymoon, we had just booked a double room, which was the perfect size. Dinner in the dining room, was the excellent, the best meals we had in Sorrento in fact. Breakfast was fantastic, could not have asked for better, it had everything anyone could wish for. more

My family and I loved this hotel. The location was great....only a 5 minute walk to the main square and also close to the train station and the location where you can pick up SITA buses. The views were amazing. The breakfast was great. The hotel had live music two of the three nights we were there and we also... more
