Located at the end of a winding lane and with unobstructed ocean views our room was a mix of old school lovely and recen
Pros:

The hotel continental is located overlooking the swimming areas a short stroll to everything in Sorrento

The staff - all it seems were elderly gentlemen - can teach their younger peers a lot about making a guest feel special - they were all faultless

Cons:

Nothing -
The only glitch was the EV charger in the basement was super slow and added just 6kwh in 8 hours - so a faster charger is what you would expect - it was however great to just get those 6kw..

A luxury stay along Italy's Amalfi coast
Pros:

The room was beautiful, well decorated with a stunning view. The staff were so polite, attentive and nothing was too much trouble. We loved the breakfast. There were great options between cooked food and continental. We particularly loved the music being played at breakfast and the spa was wonderful! We had such an amazing stay and can't wait to come back.

Pros:

The gym facilities were good, and the reception staff were really friendly.

Cons:

The Maitre d' or chef at the main restaurant was unfriendly towards me. I was travelling alone. He chatted to everyone else except me, which I thought was rude.
The other members of staff were nice.

It was convenient and a nice place to stay
Pros:

The ocean view and our room

Cons:

I think for the breakfast buffet, you should offer less and make what you do offer more grand and make sure there is enough. Each morning there were empty plates that were not refilled. Less is more sometimes. We still had a wonderful breakfast however.

Underwhelming- would not recommend
Pros:

The location was perfect. The patio and view was lovely! That said, the front desk staff was underwhelming and not friendly. We had to ask for multiple items to be restocked in the room. The bathroom was extremely small. The major concern was the drone flying directly above it on the patio one evening, which is a massive violation of privacy. I would not recommend this hotel overall.

Nice hotel with great views if you get the right room
Pros:

The Hotel Continental is in the style of classic Grand Hotels, and it mostly lives up to that standard, including twice-a-day room service. We had a medium-sized room with an incredible view of Naples Bay and Mount Vesuvius. The bathroom was modest. It has an old-fashioned bathtub/shower and a bidet. The bed was fine, and the room was only noisy when the wind blew. In that case, you could close the electronically controlled shutters to stop the noise.

The desk is a good size, but it has only one plug and no USB ports. In fact, that desk plug is the only one accessible in the bedroom. There are no plugs on the nightstands, but there is one in the bathroom. This is barely acceptable. I just can’t understand why hotels with insufficient plugs can’t install a power strip with plugs and ports. Still, the Internet worked well, and with the cords and plugs I bring, I can survive with one plug. Another small problem is that all the plugs shut with the lights and AC when you leave the room. That means you can’t leave anything to charge in your absence.

Breakfast was okay (with a live piano player!). Overall, service was excellent. The front desk was very responsive. There's a decent but small gym (not much used by the hotel's older clientele) and a swimmng pool.

Noteworthy items. There’s a scale in the bathroom. Can’t remember ever seeing one in a hotel room before. And one more. As is often the case, the tub/shower is a bit slippery. There’s a grab bar (too often absent in hotels) in the right place, but that’s not enough. What’s new is that there are flip-flops in the bathroom. Wear them and you don’t have to worry about slipping. What an interesting approach to a familiar problem. The flip-flops are uncomfortable, but they work.

The biggest problem with the room is the air-conditioning. You can turn the thermostat up to 27 or 28 (80+) Fahrenheit and the AC stays on. In the end, I just turned it off entirely. Given that it’s autumn, no AC is really needed. But somehow either the staff or something turned the AC back on from time to time. This was just a mild annoyance, but it kept turning itself back on at times. I might have a different view here if it were the height of the summer.

Overall, we were happy enough in this hotel, and we would return here if in Sorrento again.

Under priced for this quality
Pros:

We stayed here because of location we were pleasantly surprised withthe quality of the rooms,breakfast and staff. As soon as we arrived from the car the staff took care of the luggage taking it to room. Breakfast was in a large banquet room with all kinds of pastries eggs and wonderful espresso and cappuccino. Bathrobe’s and slippers and turndown service with chocolate on the pillows. We were very pleased.
