Romantic Hotel on the Waterfront

Prime Location by the Water

Grand Hotel Royal couldn't be in a more perfect part of Sorrento. It is on the Via Correale, nestled between the glittering Bay of Naples and the lush gardens of L'Agruminato. Sorrento is an hour by car or train from Naples, and just 40 minutes if you take the hydrofoil to Marina Piccola. The hotel is close enough to town for convenience, but far enough removed to create the relaxing Sorrento holiday you dream of.

Sun, Sea, and Cocktails

Sorrento is known for its stunning coastline, but there is so much more this peninsula has to offer. One of the best ways to see it is on the hop-on-hop-off open-topped tourist bus which goes from Piazza Lauro to Massa Lubrense and back. Sorrento's main shopping street is Via Cesaro. Here you will find fragrant souvenirs handmade from local lemons. Leather and coral items are also good value. Pizza Tasso is another good shopping street with the benefit of becoming a pedestrian area at night. Dine on mouth-watering seafood restaurants by Marina Grande - just the thing after you've worked up an appetite admiring the ancient sights of the old city walls and the Roman Pavilion near Queen Giovanna's Baths. 

If you prefer to do nothing more energetic than raise your hand for a drink by the pool, the Sorrento Grand Royal Hotel caters for you. As well as an outdoor pool with incredible views of the park and the bay, there is a private dock with lounge chairs, umbrellas, and easy access to the sea for swimming. Sorrento has many incredible restaurants, including the hotel's own Restaurant Le Relais and Glicini Room (popular for a Grand Hotel Royal Sorrento wedding), and La Terrasse. 

Top Quality at Bargain Price

There is a serene and elegant atmosphere everywhere in the hotel. You can easily imagine you are a character in a Fellini film as you enjoy a drink on your private terrace, in a stylishly room featuring free Wi-Fi access, a view of the sea or the park, air-conditioning, satellite TV, a minibar, spacious bathroom, and quality toiletries. The Sorrento Grand Royal Hotel gets it right at every turn.

The Bottom Line

Couples rejoice! This is the perfect hotel for a romantic Sorrento holiday. It is luxurious, elegant, peaceful and, equally as important, reasonably priced. It is the holiday of a lifetime you can afford to take twice.
