Staff were very nice and could not do enough for us. We could leave our luggage at main hoteol and use the pool while we were waiting on our room being ready. Taking us across to the room was also and added bonus. The room and building it was situated in was small but lovely. Bed very comfortable. The downside was that it was facing a park where alot of drunk people sleeping rough were around at night, that was unsetteling.

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 apartments are in a residential block. This meant that my friend and I found them very noisy! This started very early in the morning and late into the evening and sometimes in the middle of the night. People shouting, talking, furniture being moved, washing machine being used etc. I did not get a good night’s sleep whilst I was there. I did complain to the hotel - on another site - and was offered a free breakfast. Quite frankly, I don’t think this is acceptable. Also, we were not told that the hotel is on another site, meaning that we got dropped off at the B&B apartments by our taxi but could not make out where we should check in! We had to ask the hotel next door who directed us to Villa Royal. Luckily it was not raining but it meant we had to take our luggage with us. Just making everyone aware that the apartments are in a residential block!

I booked 2 rooms; one for husband and me, and one for sister and BiL. At first I was very disappointed that we were given the much smaller of the rooms. The I felt bad that the larger, seemingly more beautiful of the two rooms reeked of cigarette smoke. Awful. Carlo, who met us with keys was completely impersonal. He gave no information about breakfast (it’s supposed to be a BnB. He saw us struggling to operate the AC yet offered no help. We won’t stay here again.

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.

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.

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.

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.
