Lovely stay in a beautiful villa
Lovely experince staying at Villa Royal. The breakfast was amazing, so much choice and variety day to day. My room was a little bit small, but I was out all day anyway so I didn't mind. The bed was super comfortable, which was very much appreciated after walking all day. The staff were very friendly and helpful when asked for advice and tips on where to go for food. I will definitely book again when I'm next in Firenze.

I had a lovely stay, everything within the room itself was great. Only issue was the room was right next to the elevator so it was quite noisy with other guests and luggage noise outside

Amazing service, wonderful villa ambience.
My wife and I had an exceptional stay here for our honeymoon. The staff were absolutely wonderful.
I broke my foot on the first day and they were super accommodating with everything I needed to get to-and-from the hospital.
I really do appreciate everything they did. The hotel is about a 10-15 min cab ride or 20 min walk out of the city centre, which is perfect for us as it’s away from the masses of tourists.
It felt like a little oasis of calm in a beautiful villa! There are also plenty of fine restaurants within a 5-10 min walk of the hotel as well. Additionally there is Carre Four (grocery shop) right around the corner for all your bits and bobs!
We will definitely be back!

Excellent hotel - 15/20 minutes walk from all the main sights. Great small pool. Lovely staff. Basic breakfast. Only thing to ensure is put anti insect spray on - as the pool does have mosquitoes in the late afternoon. Also some local great restaurants just dow the street including a vegan italian.

We really enjoyed our stay, the room was comfortable with great functioning air conditioner units, especially during the heat wave. All the staff members were very friendly and helpful, especially the front desk and the breakfast staff. Breakfast was very tasty and had a wide variety of options, even for a picky eater. The pool was fantastic, clean and big enough that it never felt crowded. Area felt safe, we were out at night and had no issues or concerns walking about, even close to midnight. Definitely recommend!

Hotel Giorgione is a beautify boutique hotel with an amazing pool oasis in Florence. Pool staff was very accommodating. 20 min walk to most attractions. We went during a heat wave (100 degrees) and the air conditioning did not make room comfortable and difficult to sleep.

Nice hotel. The staff at the restaurant for breakfast was super nice and friendly. The staff at the front desk need to smile more. They are not friendly and made me feel like they don’t care.
