Reviews and Ratings
Opening the curtains to the promised sunset view over the ocean with a massive queen-size bed was incredible. The view also included Vesuvius, making it even more breathtaking. However, the dining experience could be better with more variety, and lunch options seemed limited and pricey. The hotel's service, especially the table service and tours provided, was exceptional. The location in the hills overlooking Sorrento with jaw-dropping views and a convenient shuttle service was amazing.
I stayed in the annexe section of the hotel, which was excellent. The rooms were exceptionally clean and comfortable. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, making my stay very pleasant. The location was perfect for me, offering great views and just a 15-minute walk downhill to the town. However, the dining options were a bit limited with mainly sweet pastries. The pool was deep and ideal for swimming.
The hotel was absolutely stunning with quaint and beautifully decorated rooms that were comfortable, clean, and had a balcony offering fantastic sunset views of Mount Vesuvius. The service was wonderful, with attentive and helpful staff, though there was a minor issue with extra charges that needed rectifying. The location was lovely, though a bit small with limited sun beds. The dining experience was generally great, but some found it monotonous at times. Overall, a great stay with beautiful views and fantastic service.
My stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful. The rooms were spacious, very clean, and well looked after. The view from our balcony was so lovely that we even have a nighttime photograph of Sorrento there to remember such a magical honeymoon. Waking up to breakfast and retiring to our cozy room was just perfect.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were lovely with cracking views, clean, well tended, and roomy. The service was amazing, and the staff provided the best Italian hospitality I have encountered. The location was a plus, away from the bustle with spectacular views. The dining experience could be improved slightly, but overall, it was better than expected. The facilities were top-notch, offering everything I needed for a relaxing holiday.
