Loved every minute - staff were extremely friendly and helpful - location; walkability; views.
Pros:

Amazing location if you are travelling with suitcases - didnt have to climb one step from the extremely nearby ferry terminal to the room. Wonderful views out over the Bay of Naples. Great sundowner deck and pool. Very romantic. Very convenient - close to the beach, the railway station, the lift up to the main street.

Cons:

NOTHING

wir wurden nicht gut behandelt
Pros:

Die Lage zum Gährhafen

Cons:

Wir sind am ersten Tag mit unsere Wanderkleidung angereist und bei der Zimmer Suche versehentlich bei der Rooftop Bar gelandet Wir wurden von den beiden Kellnern belächelt und gefragt ob wir aus Patagonien stammen würden.Traurig wenn man in einem Mittelklasse Hotel so sehr auf das Äußere reduziert wird.Schade auch an der Rezeption hat man sich nicht wirklich für uns interessiert andere Gäste im schicken Outfit waren wichtiger. Der Mann an der Rezeption gab uns nur einen Code Schlüssel der lediglich für das Licht war und so mussten wir erneut zur Rezeption rennen.Da das Zimmer sich mit diesem Schlüssel nicht öffnen lässt.Das sollte ein Rezeptions Mitarbeiter eigentlich wissen.Oder vielleicht wollte er uns nur nochmal nach unten rennen lassen,Unsere Koffer waren schon 2 Tage vor uns da und das Personal hat es nicht geschafft sie auf unser Zimmer zu stellen.Die Frühstückes Dame war sehr nett.Doch es waren Zuviel negative Begegnungen mit dem Personal und fast alle waren sehr hochnäsig.Schade wir haben unsere Rechnung doch auch bezahlt Kann das Hotel leider nicht weiter empfehlen.

Kiváló elhelyezkedés, aki hajózni akar Caprira vagy Amalfiba, annak különösen ajánlott!
Pros:

Pár lépésre van a központi kikötőtől, kb. 200 méterre a városközponttól. A vasút gyalog is könnyen elérhető. Nagyon szép környezetben van a szálloda, a szoba tiszta és rendezett. Egyedül a kávéfőző hiányzott...

Good proximity to ferry but if you want to visit the Sorrento town centre you have to climb 142 stairs or pay for a lift. The hotel was lovely.
