Royal Arena Relais

Royal Arena Relais Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Royal Arena Relais on Via dei Mutilati, you immediately get that feeling you’ve stumbled onto something special. This three-star boutique property sits right in the heart of Verona‘s historical center, and I mean really in the heart — you’re literally steps away from the Arena and all the main sights. The building itself has that classic Italian charm without being overly fussy, and honestly, the location alone makes it worth considering. The property offers an ideal base for exploring one of Italy’s most enchanting medieval cities.

The Perfect Verona Base

What I love about this place is how effortlessly you can explore everything on foot. The Arena di Verona is practically your neighbor — we’re talking a two-minute walk here. Juliet’s House, Piazza delle Erbe, all those winding medieval streets you came to see? They’re all right there. You know what’s really nice though? Despite being so central, the street itself isn’t completely overrun with tourist chaos. It’s busy enough to feel alive but not so crazy that you can’t enjoy a peaceful moment.

The neighborhood strikes a perfect balance between vibrant energy and tranquility.

The Room Experience

The room at Royal Arena Relais are thoughtfully designed without trying too hard to impress. My room was compact but well-planned — everything you need is there, and the bed was actually comfortable (which isn’t always a given in historic Italian buildings). The bathrooms are modern and functional, and I appreciated the attention to details like good lighting and decent storage space. Air conditioning works well too, which you’ll definitely want during Verona’s warm summers. Each space reflects careful consideration for guest comfort and practicality.

Local Insights

Here’s something you might not realize until you stay here — the location puts you within walking distance of some fantastic local spots that aren’t on every tourist’s radar. There’s this little osteria just around the corner that locals actually frequent, and the morning market in Piazza delle Erbe becomes part of your daily routine rather than a planned excursion. The staff genuinely knows the area and can point you toward the good stuff, not just the obvious attractions. This insider knowledge transforms your stay into an authentic Verona experience.

Why Guests Love It

Couples especially seem to fall for this place — and I get it. There’s something romantic about being able to wander back to your hotel after an evening at the opera or a late dinner without dealing with taxis or long walks. The 9.3 rating reflects what you actually experience: solid comfort, unbeatable location, and that sense that you’re staying somewhere that understands what travelers really want.

It’s not trying to be the fanciest place in town, but it delivers exactly what makes a Verona trip memorable — easy access to everything that matters, comfortable accommodations, and that authentic Italian hospitality that feels genuine rather than rehearsed. This hotel represents the perfect choice for discerning travelers seeking quality and authenticity.

• Xiaoxi from Spain – 25 March 2025 (10/10)

  The owner is very friendly, and every detail of the room is luxurious, making it feel like staying in a palace. The location is unbeatable, situated near the Arena yet very quiet. There is a supermarket (Pam) right next to the residence. Highly recommended!

• Yitzhak from Israel – 25 March 2025 (8/10)

  המיקום הכי מרכזי בעיר. ממש מטר מהקולסאום והכיכר המרכזית.
  מיטות נוחות, מקום נקי, גישה נוחה, בעלים סופר זמין ואדיב. יש הכל בחדרים, לא היה חסר דבר.
  
  What could be improved: חדרים מעט קטנים. לא היה מים חמים בשש בבוקר במקלחת (כנראה רק משבע יש) והזרם די חלש.
