As Italy holidays go, is there anywhere more romantic than Tuscany?<br />

Located just a short distance from Pisa, the Grand Hotel Royal on<br />

the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea is one of the icons of the region. This<br />

beach hotel comes with a wealth of star-studded history - it was once<br />

a favourite of royalty, artists, and celebrities in the early 20th century.<br />

Sumptuous both inside and out, the iconic four-star hotel is located<br />

very close to the beach. Here you’ll find complimentary deckchairs and<br />

parasols - so we won’t be surprised if you want to spend all your time<br />

soaking up the luxurious Tuscan sun.<br />

In the 1920s and 1930s Viareggio was the<br />

destination for Italy’s rich and famous, which<br />

is still celebrated in its epic architecture.<br />

exception with mood lighting and elegant finishing touches. The hotel also has a grill<br />

bar specialising in meat and fish, an international buffet restaurant, and a panoramic<br />

roof garden overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea, which is perfect for cocktails at sunset.<br />

The swimming pool is the perfect place to unwind, situated in the gardens with chic sun<br />

loungers and parasols. Massage and beauty therapies are available at the wellness centre<br />

and there's also a heated indoor pool with hydromassage overlooking the relaxing gardens.<br />
