Upon check in was given the option to stay at room 24 ( only nice room I saw) or in another terrible dirty room, we were tired and decided to take the lovely room by the garden. A/C did not work well and although the room was comfortable I found the service, front desk attendants which seem to be family... more

We stayed at the Hotel Royal in 2007 and I was just reading the reviews out of curiosity and am amazed that the hotel has received such poor reviews. We went out of season so the cost was reasonable - £60 per night for a double including breakfast. We thought the hotel was lovely andthe staff very friendly. The town... more

I booked a single room for 5 days at the Hotel Royal in Florence. The price of the single room was 200$. I was staying to Florence for a conference. I did not have much time available. Disappointment no1: I arrived at the hotel late in the evening. When I saw the room, I was so surprised! The room was... more

We stayed in Florence for 2 nights and decided to book the Hotel Royal because of the private parking and the good location to the historical city. The hotel looks like a little palace with a big garden, swimmingpool an private parking. The rooms are very clean, beautiful and quiet. Everything seems to be perfect except the staff and the... more

I'm Italian, and I decided to spend one night in Florence with some friends from Rome. I contacted the hotel for a last minute planned visit in Florence for a weekend. I had the hotel name from a friend of mine who stayed there long time ago. I was surprised not to receive any confirmation of my booking sent by... more

We are two women friends visiting Florence then Venice and taking a Cruise in Greece with the Costa Mediterranea. Stayed at this Hotel Sept 1st, 2007 till the next day. First I must say that the parking lot is not very convenient (little rocks) for rolling your suitcase. A taxi must drive you up in front, ours left us in... more

Location okand easy to find. Not to far to walk to main sites and attractions. Market close by. No internet available in hotel - disappointing. Parking available but carries an extra charge of 20 euros per day. This was not mentioned on website and has to be paid in cash on arrival. Swimming pool was an attractive facility but carries... more

Hotel was as expected having read reviews on Tripadvisor before booking - so was aware of 'poor coffee' etc but we had specifically booked this hotel for the pool facility it offers. Idea was to arrive after travelling from Pisa to laze around the pool before tackling the sights of Florence. Hotel fails to indicate a hefty charge of 12... more

The hotel location is good. Just 10 minutes walk from the railway station and 5 minutes walk to Piazza Santa Croce. The hotel has an excellent impact at the reception, but the room are absolutely "normal". The cleaning of the hotel is generally good, but in my room I've found many mosquito that in the night has waked me up... more
