The Grand Hotel Royal, member of Alberghi Storici d'Italia (Historic Hotels of Italy), is five-star estate in the heart of Sorrento, perched over the sea in a privileged location overlooking the Gulf of Naples and the Mount Vesuvius, surrounded by a large park boasting exotic plants, amazing camellias, orange and lemon trees. A little bit of history - Between the two wars, the hotel welcomed the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Italy, Francesco Saverio Nitti. Built in 1898, this was the hotel for the aristocracy who flocked from all over Europe to enjoy the grand gala evenings on the terrace high above the sea, with the Gulf of Naples stretched out before them.

We had a great 3 night stay here. It’s got great facilities, nice pool with enough deck chairs and space for everyone and a nice beach club. We really liked the food options, especially for lunch. The staff are very friendly and attentive. The room was also great. My only criticism is the bath/ shower combination, I would prefer not to have a bath but proper shower instead.

We recently returned to the Grand Hotel Royal in Sorrento for the second time, and it was just as unforgettable as our first stay. This historic property is truly a gem, perched above the Mediterranean with breathtaking views that never get old. The grounds are simply stunning—lush, beautifully maintained, and perfect for enjoying a peaceful stroll. The hotel itself is elegant and has that old-world charm. What makes the experience even more special is the staff: attentive, professional, and genuinely kind, always going above and beyond to ensure guests feel cared for. From the spectacular setting to the remarkable service, the Grand Hotel Royal exceeds expectations at every turn. It’s an outstanding 5-star hotel that I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone visiting Sorrento. We are already looking forward to our next stay!

My daughter and I stayed at the Grand Hotel Royal in Sorrento from Aug 12 to Aug 15, 2025. We stayed in room 511. The room is very nice and large. The bathroom has double sinks and plenty of room for 2 women to lay out all of their toiletries. Surprisingly they had wash clothes along with the standard bath towels and hand towels. The property is very pretty with great views of Mt Vesuvius. The beach club has a nice deck and several levels to relax and enjoy the ocean views. I was sad though that the current of the water was a little too strong for me to truly enjoy the water as I like to just float and let the water relax me. Good idea to bring along a blow-up tube or floaty. I wish I had! They do offer a few floaties and pool noodles. Breakfast was really nice with a lot of selections. Overall this is a high level hotel with nice rooms and grounds.
