Why people love it

  • The rooftop pool and terrace. Guests in August and September 2026 single out the rooftop pool, the terrace views over the Bay of Naples and the bar beside it.
  • Staff. A September 2026 guest praised the front desk, housekeeping and maintenance staff. An October 2026 guest said the staff spoiled them and they extended their stay.
  • Location. The hotel is in the historic center. Guests describe a short walk to shops, and one says some tours collect from the hotel while others are about 5 minutes on foot.
  • Rooms. Guests mention comfortable beds, very clean rooms and, in one review, the best blackout shades they had seen in a hotel. One guest describes the hotel as recently completely renovated.

Why they come back

The worst thing guests say

In 22 recent reviews from July to October 2026, the lowest rating is 1 star, from August 2026. That guest booked a taxi to Naples Airport through the concierge and was told the price would be €180. The text is cut off after the confirmed price. Other recent complaints, each from one guest: clean clothes left inside the bidet by housekeeping (July 2026, 1 star), a cockroach seen in the gym (August 2026, 4 stars), and noise because everything is tiled (September 2026, 3 stars). An August 2026 guest rated it 3 stars and described the amenities as below a five-star level.

Insider tips

  • Light sleeper? Ask about quieter rooms, since a September 2026 guest found the hotel noisy because of tiled floors.
  • Tours pick up at the hotel or are within about 5 minutes on foot.
Who it's for: couples and families who want a rooftop pool and a walkable base in Sorrento's historic center.
Skip it if you are a light sleeper, since a September 2026 guest found the hotel noisy because of tiled floors.
