Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, with clean and comfortable rooms expertly organized by Giovanni. The dining staff were efficient and friendly, offering a partial view of the sea from the room and a matching bathroom. The breathtaking views of the bay of Naples made my stay truly unforgettable.
The hotel offers a spacious junior suite overlooking the Bay of Naples, providing a stunning view but lacking in furnishings. The location is superb with a short walk to the city center, making it ideal for a relaxing siesta. The dining experience is varied and plentiful, featuring excellent views from the beautiful terrace.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were a bit disappointing, being very dirty with body hair everywhere, ants, dust balls, and stains. On the bright side, the view over the orange tree field with scents and the distant Vesuvio volcano was breathtaking. The service, especially from concierges Gianni and Cielo, was exceptional, going above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. The location excelled, offering a quiet retreat with a spectacular view over the bay. The dining experience was good, although not as authentic Italian as expected. Overall, the hotel was more luxurious than anticipated, offering good value for money.
The hotel has a lovely view of the car park and is well-presented, making it a great gift for our parents over the weekends. The service was unbelievably friendly, making it the best hotel experience we've had. The location is absolutely stunning and very clean, a short walk from town & harbour, perfect for driving up the coast. The dining was as good as any I've enjoyed in a five-star hotel, offering filling meals and some mornings with champagne. The pool area was well-maintained and enjoyable.
The hotel offers beautiful and clean rooms with a nice partial view of Vesuvius, though not very spacious. The service is friendly and attentive, ensuring a pleasant stay. The location is perfect for a peaceful and tranquil retreat, with stunning views and easy access to busy Sorrento. The dining experience is excellent, with a lovely terrace and fantastic views. Overall, a relaxing and enjoyable stay with great value for money.
My stay at the hotel was simply delightful. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and spacious with immaculate embellished bed linen, plenty of clothing storage, and a balcony offering spectacular views. The service was exceptional, with staff guiding me every step of the way and being extremely pleasant and helpful. The location was the best I have ever experienced, peaceful and tranquil with beautiful views and just a short stroll into the lively Sorrento. The dining options were varied and enjoyable, although a bit slow with coffee service. Overall, a great value for a luxurious experience with a couple of minor drawbacks.
My stay at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms were spacious and nicely decorated, but the hotel had a bit of a basic motel vibe. The staff provided excellent service and were very helpful. The location overlooking the sea was stunning, although it could get busy in the mornings. The facilities were satisfactory.
I had a truly unforgettable experience at this hotel. The rooms offered stunning views of the Gulf through two big windows and a small balcony, making it a perfect seaside retreat. However, some service instances were not up to standard. The location, right on the cliff top with views over the Bay of Naples, was simply breathtaking.
I had a mixed experience with the hotel. The rooms had a balcony facing the ocean, but unfortunately, there was leaking plumbing which affected my stay slightly. The service was exceptional with staff going above and beyond, and the location was ideal for a peaceful retreat near the bay of Naples. The dining was delightful with a good variety, yet it was a shame about the plumbing issue in the rooms.
