With its flawless position on a clifftop overlooking the Gulf of Naples and Mount Vesuvius right in the heart of postcard-perfect Sorrento, Grand Hotel Royal is one of this resort town's most prestigious addresses. Each of the bright, airy rooms and suites has a private balcony with exclusive views of the Mediterranean or the hotel's beautiful private gardens, and the recently restored interiors offer the most up-to-date luxury and comfort while retaining their classic historic elegance: sweeping marble staircases and crystal chandeliers, sumptuous sofas and carved wooden furnishings, and precious antiques grace the hotel's public halls and lounges.

The hotel's fine dining restaurant, "Le Relais", features both local Mediterranean cuisine and international dishes on its gourmet menu, paired with an extensive wine list including the best local and international labels. To celebrate special occasions or events, the "Glicini" Room off the main dining room offers breathtaking views of the lush gardens and sparkling Mediterranean...the perfectly unforgettable venue for your wedding reception or gala dinners in Italy.

For a lighter repast, the "Caprice" Lounge Bar serves afternoon tea and evening cocktails, and the poolside Restaurant & Snack Bar "La Terrasse" serves traditional Neapolitan pizza, fish dishes, grilled meat,and light salads at informal tables overlooking the sea.

Below the hotel at the water's edge, theSnack-Bar "La Marine" on Grand Hotel Royal's private jetty, offers drinks and simple appetizers with a view of the water, and the nearby private beach is the perfect spot for sunbathing, a leisurely swim, or for setting off on a sail along the Amalfi Coast or across the gulf to Italy's Island of Capri.

Perfect location - full service luxury resort

We stayed at Grand Hotel Royal for the last 3 nights of an 11 night trip to Italy and it was a great way to finish our journey. The hotel is beautiful and offers a great blend of classic luxury with modern amenities. We had 2 rooms - one looked over the sea with incredible views and the other was a suite for our 3 adult kids that looked over the park on the town side of the hotel. Both rooms were large and very comfortable with nice renovated bathrooms. The property grounds are spectacular with views from just about every spot. The pool area offers plenty of lounge chairs and a resort style pool with waterfall, infinity edge, seating areas. Take the tunnel path or elevator down to the beach club for a full service beach bar & cafe, dock with lounges and cabana boys, and a refreshing swim. Great garden like bar overlooking the sea perfect for sunset cocktails. And the best part it’s a short 5 min walk into the center of historic Sorrento very convenient.

This hotel was even more beautiful than the photos online, the beautifully-manicured grounds are absolutely incredible. Walk to the outside terrace or the pool area and you are surrounded by lemon and orange trees and swaying, tall palms! The walk to the ocean level is equally beautiful as you wind down the cliff on a walkable path that feels like being in a cave with occasional open views of the bay of Naples. The hotel is beautiful even in the lobby and rooms. We had a prestige ocean front room with a direct view of Mt. Vesuvius which was so comfortable and clean. The bed are comfortable with high quality sheets and pillows. The hotel staff really tend to your every need. The daily breakfast was really good with a lot variety including an omelette bar and lunch at the restaurant by the pool also offered some delicious choices. This hotel really exceeded our expectations and it was sad to leave such a beautiful property.

The Grand Hotel Royal is immaculate, with beautiful rooms and exceptional waiting staff. However, several wedding parties during our first week created a lot of noise, making it hard to relax. The dinner dress code (long trousers for men) was not enforced, despite being told it would be. Also, the lunch and dinner menus were the same every day, and we only discovered the A La Carte option after questioning staff. A stunning hotel overall, but some inconsistencies took away from the 5-star experience.

Map

Grand Hotel Royal is located in Sorrento, perched directly above the sea on a rocky promontory from where sweeping views of the entire Gulf of Naples and the majestic form of Mount Vesuvius can be admired. Those travelling by air will want to take flights landing at Naples' Capodichino Airport. Guests choosing to journey by train should descend at Naples Central Station from where to board a Sorrento-bound train on the Circumvesuviana line. By car, the hotel is easily reached via the A3 Napoli-Salerno motorway, exiting at Castellammare di Stabia from where to follow indications to Sorrento. Sea connections link Sorrento to Naples, Capri, and Castellammare all year round. Whilst holidaying in Sorrento, visitors should not fail to take a trip along the nearby Amalfi Coast, to the islands of Capri, Ischia, and Procida, and to the fascinating archaeological site of Pompei.
