Lovely to find a relaxing hotel with pool quite near the city centre. Pool area was fantastic. Food options for lunch which was a bonus. Breakfast plentiful and delicious. The room was lovely with AC so everything was great!

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed in the Junior Suite for four nights as a celebration for a special event. The beds were the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in! Spotlessly clean hotel with gorgeous period details. The bathroom was very small and although clean and functional, was a mild disappointment with the luxury of the room. Staff were helpful and friendly and non-intrusive, and the pool was a beautiful space to cool off after a morning of sightseeing in the heat. Lovely gardens. Great location, easily walkable to Old Town in 10 mins. Handy supermarket next door. It was a surprise that we were initially charged for the water in the mini-bar as no signage seen of the cost and staying in a suite I had not expected this, but this was waivered when I queried it. Breakfast was fresh and varied. Overall we had an incredible stay and will return!

The quiet, green, and serene courtyard is the absolute best place to be after the busy day. I had moved hotels after spending the weekend away from Florence, and ended up returning to the Villa Royal after one night at the other hotel. An absolute paradise with a beautiful pool area and onsite parking, which I think is pretty rare.

We had a great a stay at Villa Royal. My husband and I stayed in one of the detached rooms located near the pool. It was clean and cozy. As soon as we checked in, the staff at the reception were very helpful and gave us great information for our stay. The breakfast buffet was one of the best I’ve had with a great variety of food. One minor thing to note is that the shower was a bit small. The specific shower that we used should probably be resealed as the sealant appeared quite old and some water would leak out of the shower and on to the floor.
