Grand Hotel Royal Summary
The Grand Hotel Royal is a member of the ‘Historic Hotels of Italy.’ This stylish five-star estate in the heart of Sorrento is in a privileged location, overlooking the Gulf of Naples and Mount Vesuvius. What’s more, it’s only a 5-minute stroll from Sorrento’s central square where you’ll find boutique shops, gelaterias and restaurants.
Amenities
The entrance lobby of the Grand Hotel Royal welcomes you with plush sofas, marble staircases, crystal chandeliers and beautiful antiques. Floor to ceiling windows allows natural light to flood the interiors.
Beyond, you’ll find a large park boasting exotic plants, camellias, orange and lemon trees. The scent of which hangs heavy in the air. Guests can relax while enjoying a drink or an inviting light lunch at the poolside. On sunny days, the pool-side terrace offers breathtaking views over the crystal-clear waters and a warm sea breeze. The new and luxurious wellness centre ‘La Villetta’ boasts wonderful treatment rooms and a plethora of indulgent therapies. Best of all, guests can experience the intimate feeling of a private beach, the perfect place to either swim in the Sea of Sorrento or lounge beneath the sun’s rays.
Accommodation
The newly renovated rooms are roomy and attractive while blending the classic (chunky wooden furnishings and white marble floors) with the contemporary (Mediterranean-style colours and modern amenities.) However, the main draw is undoubtedly the view. Also, the majority of rooms look out onto the leafy garden with Vesuvius and the Bay of Naples beyond. For guests seeking more exclusivity, we recommend either a ‘Luxury’ or ‘Royal’ Suite. These offer a large separate living area with a 4K Bang & Olufsen widescreen TV and some boast an outside Jacuzzi.
Weddings
The fantastic landscapes of Sorrento, the expertise of the staff and the luxury found at every turn. These are the core features that make a wedding at the Grand Hotel Royal a spectacular affair. Whether you want an intimate celebration of your love or a more elaborate event, witnessed by scores of well-wishers, this is an excellent choice for a heavenly destination wedding in Italy.
