We recently stayed at Hotel Giosuè and overall had a lovely stay. The hotel itself is beautiful, peaceful, and the scenery overlooking the sea is absolutely amazing. If you’re looking for somewhere quiet and relaxing away from the busy centre of Sorrento, the location is perfect.
The beds were extremely comfortable (and I’m very fussy with beds!), the pillows and sheets were lovely, the room was spotless every day, and the air conditioning worked really well. Breakfast was excellent with so much choice, and even the coffee machine was surprisingly good, which is rare in hotels! A kettle in the room was also appreciated.
The reception staff were outstanding, especially Maria, who was incredibly helpful throughout our stay. We were dropped off and collected at the church in Meta because the coach couldn’t access the hotel, but we knew this before booking and the hotel arranged quick transfers to and from the property, which only took around five minutes.
Although taxis into Sorrento were very expensive (around €60), we found the Number 8 bus at the bottom of the hill fantastic — every 20 minutes and only €2 each way.
The private beach area was lovely and very cute. We stayed in room 208 with a side sea view. The view was still nice, but the balcony wasn’t really usable, and I do wish we’d known this beforehand as we probably would have upgraded to a full sea view room with a proper balcony.
Unfortunately, the main reason I can’t give this hotel 5 stars was our experience with the restaurant. We ate there one evening and the food wasn’t great, but more concerning was seeing the restaurant manager/cook repeatedly smoking while handling and arranging food in the open kitchen area. This happened more than once and was clearly visible to guests. We reported it to reception, but nothing seemed to change, and later that evening we could still see him smoking in the kitchen area from the rooftop terrace. Because of this, we didn’t eat there again.
It’s such a shame because the hotel itself is lovely and most of the staff were fantastic, but this issue really let the experience down for us. Unfortunately, because of repeatedly seeing someone smoking while handling food, we would not return to this hotel.
La posizione è la colazione
The Hotel was Beautiful,the sea view was Amazing
The food was very basic,pasta was under cooked really under cooked,not great option on there menu for half board
Muy lindo hotel,tranquilo,el personal amable y el paisaje hermoso
La almohada un poco baja para mi.
Umiejscowienie hotelu bardzo ładne. Bardzo nam zapadła pomoc hotelu w dostaniu się do i z centrum Sorrento.
Lovely location with beautiful views
A little difficult to get out and about and taxis expensive. Shuttle bus not often enough
Main problem was the Pizza festival which was extremely noisy for 3 of our 4 nights. A warning about this before we arrived would have been preferable
We booked this Hotel Giosue a Mare in Meta because we wanted a small hotel, near a beach but not in the main tourist part of Sorrento.
We got a lovely hotel right on a private beach. It's staff are delightful, friendly, consistently helpful and all of them put up with my appalling attempts to speak Italian!
We didn't eat our main meal there every night but we could have. I had the best tuna I have ever had there, one evening in the rooftop restaurant. We certainly ate snacks there quite often and sometimes the snacks meant we didn't need a main meal.
We had chosen one of the cheaper rooms and it was not large, although bigger than a premier inn room, while the bathroom was quite big, and both were extremely clean. It was very quiet.
The hotel is at the bottom of the cliff at Meta.You can walk up if you're feeling energetic, but there is a bus or a lift. However, the hotel will organise free car rides to Meta train station and in the evenings free trips to Sorrento centre as well as the return.
We took rail trips out for the first few days; a guided one to Pompei and unguided one to Herculaneum as well as Sorrento and then, exhausted, spent the last days of our holiday swimming or lying on the beach. It's a very good place if you want that sort of a visit. You don't need a car, the railway and buses are cheap and functionally excellent if colourful.
We had a great holiday and cannot recommend the hotel enough but next time we go we will get a bigger room.
La vista, la atención, la ubicación y la tranquilidad

Tutto ciò che serve per un soggiorno in cerca del distacco dalla routine quotidiana. Ogni servizio pensato viene offerto accompagnato dal rumore del mare l'intera giornata.
Traumhafte Lage direkt am Meer

All the staff but particularly the chef were both helpful and informative. Our room had an incredible view out over the sea towards Vesuvius and beyond; an absolute pleasure sitting out on the balcony watching evening fall. Breakfast was plentiful and unrushed, the room clean and spacious, the location peaceful and beautiful. As we were there for only a few nights, and ate outside, I can’t comment on the restaurant or bar but what we saw looked attractive and inviting. There is a complimentary service to take you into/ pick you from Sorrento in the afternoons and evenings. We used this on the first day but found the local bus to be more convenient and a chance to see a bit more of the area.
The only issue was that the walls are very thin and we could hear everything happening in the next room. It wasn’t a huge issue but once you realise you can hear your neighbours, you understand they can hear you!
Shuttle service, slaapsysteem, risotto was heerlijk!!
