Grand Hotel Royal

A glamorous hotel on a cliff top overlooking the sea in the heart of Sorrento

  1. A classic Sorrento villa with a view over the Gulf of Naples
  2. Southern Italy's best wine and traditional cuisine
  3. A private beach with direct elevator access

On an imposing tuff clifftop that drops dramatically to the sea below, with a breathtaking view over the entire Gulf of Naples: Grand Hotel Royal is the exclusive hotel that delivers a stay of real charm just minutes from the centre of Sorrento. The hotel is a member of the Alberghi Storici d'Italia and part of the Manniello Hotels group.

A classic that never goes out of style

Classic and timeless style, majolica tile floors, furniture inlaid by Sorrento artisans and antique original paintings: Grand Hotel Royal is home to enduring elegance.

Guests are offered charming accommodation in elegant rooms and exclusive suites, all with private views over the sea or the hotel's centuries-old park. Every room is spacious, bright and high-ceilinged, with tiled floors complemented by the latest technology. Categories range from Standard to Imperial Suite, with Classic, Deluxe, Premier, Prestige, Superior Junior Suite, Luxury Suite, Royal Junior Suite and Royal Suite in between.

A centuries-old retreat

The hotel is surrounded by a magnificent centuries-old park, the perfect place to escape the pace of everyday life and lose track of time.

Grand Hotel Royal has a private beach, reserved exclusively for guests and reachable by elevator through the park, with a jetty and solarium. Sun, sea and a drink accompanied by something from the La Marine snack bar.

Enjoy the good life relaxing by the Grand Hotel Royal pool, with its hydromassage area, while the solarium is scented by lemon trees, orange trees and palms. The La Villetta wellness centre has luxurious treatment cabins with state-of-the-art equipment, where expert therapists offer personalised treatments.

A great start to the day

Light filtering through the trees, the warmth of a spring morning and the beauty of the "Glicini" Room in the heart of the centuries-old park, where Grand Hotel Royal's breakfast is served and where weddings and business lunches can be arranged.

For traditional or international cuisine, book a table at Ristorante "Le Relais". For a lighter meal on the panoramic terrace, the "La Terrasse" snack bar is the option; for a romantic after-dinner moment, the "Caprice" Piano Bar awaits.

1 week stay as part of an engagement - unbelievable service

Myself and me now fiancée stayed here for 1 week. I proposed to on the 4th day and the staff (especially Claudia), were extremely helpful and accommodating. They arranged champagne and flowers at short notice, alongside giving us a Suite upgrade for free. Outside of this the views of the Amalfi were one of the best we experienced, with an amazing private beach area to relax. Would definitely stay at the hotel again if we were to come back to Sorrento!

We just completed our second stay in 2 years at the Grand Hotel Royal and can report, it just keeps getting better! While last year, it was just the wife and I for 2 nights, we returned this year with our adult kids for 3 nights. Having to book 2 rooms instead of 1 certainly hurt the pocketbook. Before booking, I searched far and wide for a different hotel that I can try to get a similar experience at a cheaper rate since I had to double our stay with the 2 rooms, even going so far as reserving rooms at another place, but as the time ticked closer to our trip, I just kept going back to the memories of our prior stay and simply did not want to miss out, as well as show the kids what a luxury stay really looks like. I ended up canceling the other reservation and never looked back. We booked a prestige water view and premier water view room. The concierge was nice enough to ensure that our rooms were on teh same floor for conveniece and the view was of course spectacular. We spent the majority of our stay at the private "beach", which is simply THE BEST. While the price is steep, I cannot recommend this hotel more.

The staff were excellent and accommodating. The hotel and facilities were clean and well kept. The food was delicious and well made. Had a suite with kids and they automatically doubled all the toiletries and replenished them daily without having to ask. We always had new soaps and plenty of towels. All around wonderful hotel.

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.
