This property is owned by the Hotel down the street. We were able to walk there and use the pool area and bar. This property is walking distance to the historic cathedral and the bell tower. You are close to a variety of restaurants and stores.

Great place to stay in Florence & sharing the amenities Hotel Villa Royal just a few minutes away was perfect. Small suite with comfortable bedding & clean environment. The hotel villa royal had a pool with beautiful grounds was a refreshing way to relax after hot days exploring Florence. Buffett breakfast was available for a small fee had great variety of options. Highly recommend !

Clean, beautiful room. Great amenities and location. We would definitely stay here again. The only complaint i have is that it can be noisy due to poor sound control between the rooms. Check in and check out was smooth and effortless. Overall, a great stay.

8/10 Very good

The reception is located a good 5 minute walk from the rooms which are in a separate apartment building. That really sucked, and made it a bit of a hassle to use the pool. Otherwise good location. The bed was nice, but two separate mattresses meant they slid apart a bit if one of us was in the middle part of the bed. Other than this the room was great - very spacious, great bathroom, and aircondition was really powerful and adjustable.
Verified review

4/10 Fair

The confusion of a hotel and a villa being not the same property and the pool being 3 blocks away was very frustrating and the check in at a different location. For the price we paid I would have much rather stayed at another hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful enough and the property was clean but the annoyance and the way the advertise is bordering on false advertising.

Great room. Very spacious and clean. Good location and mostly quiet. And a cleaner comes everyday despite it being a B&B. The only complaint I had was that the shower had very low water pressure. After notifying the hotel staff, they did nothing about the pressure issue. So shower quality was not great.

We stayed only for one night before flying out of florence. The bed was the largest of any we slept in while traveling in Italy. Good central location. Would stay again while in Florence.

The room comfortable and clean but the area a bit noisy... Internet was good and room easily accessible for city. It was a 5 minute walk to the hotel for breakfast and to use the pool, which was an extra charge.

A larger room with a good bathroom although we did not have hot water one evening, an N alternative bathroom was arranged. No facilities to have breakfast no kitchen sink or cooking facilities B but still very comfortable with lots of small cafes nearby

The location of this place was the best part, a short walk from the centre but also a little bit away from the business and crowds. The room is exactly as described and had everything we needed. The only downside was that we were not aware you had to pay an extra fee for the pool anytime you want to use it and it was one of the main reasons we chose this place. Other than that the place was easy to access and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. Would definitely stay again.

The room is clean and bed is very comfortable. We were given a small Superior room and the walls are paper thin though and the cistern was visible from outside of the ensuite which was weird and very loud when flush.

A note of caution. If staying at Villa Royal B&B, breakfast is not free and you pay €20 per person, to use the pool, every day. Book Hotel Royal. The staff are really friendly and welcoming.

The accommodation was very spacious and clean. Would comfortably accommodate several people or family. Breakfast was served in a beautiful garden room in the hotel a couple of blocks away. Downside was the rooms were actually below ground level with poor natural lighting. Felt a bit dungeony The shower did not function properly. Water was either hot or cold and could not be regulated resulting dodgy bathing and hair washes in the sink.

We stayed on this B&B for two nights. The location is very convenient. All historic sites are within reach. The bathroom and shower were sparkling clean and fully renovated. Bed was comfortable and very clean too. The rooms are spacious facing the park in Independence Square in Florence. For breakfast you have to walk to the Hotel Royal and pay 15 Euro per person. The dining room in the main building of Hotel Villa Royal is charming. Staff were very friendly, polite and helpful.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel staff was excellent! We greatly appreciated the ability to have an early check-in so that we would be in time for our tour and we also appreciated the young man who walked us (in the rain) to our separate apartment about a block away. We had the room with the separate washroom. It was a bit inconvenient to have to unlock and lock the doors to and from the washroom but this was offset by the cheaper price for the room. Both the bedroom and the washroom were beautiful & clean. There is convenient parking right in front of the building for 30 euro. Unfortunately, we accidentally drove past it and ended up in another lot for 40 euro. The buffet breakfast is huge and delicious. Hotel is a short 15 minute walk to centre of Florence.

Newly resonated room with great AC and fridge. Room is good and quiet until a loud family checked in the night before we checked out. The walls are thin so you can hear everything. Only two complains: no check in instruction. This is the new “branch” of Royal Hotel close by, so when we arrived there was no staff or signs of this Villa Royal b&b or who to contact. We called the number on the reservation (thank god we have a local SIM) and someone from the hotel came to check us in. Service is only available when the cleaning staff is on site around 12pm. Also shower is awkward and water pressure is low. Wifi is not great either - slow and weak.
