Colorful and Captivating
Overlooking the Bay of Naples and mount Vesuvius, Sorrento is a colorful town in Campania. According to legend, it was the land of the sirens that had the power to enchant with their singing.
The town of Sorrento has gorgeous Renaissance and Baroque architecture, and a wide variety of restaurants, shops and cafés. Built around the 11th century, the Romanesque Cathedral of Sorrento is the city’s most important landmark. The charming Bell Tower with the beautiful majolica clock is the first thing you notice.
The picturesque harbor of Marina Grande has some of the best restaurants in the city. Wander around during sunset and you'll see fishermen cleaning their nets. Marina Piccola is the place to catch a ferry to Capri, Amalfi and Naples.
Born in a garden of lemon and oranges, the traditional yellow liquor limoncello is a unique aperitif or digestive drink. The mediterranean climate of Sorrento helps in the production of this famous refreshment.
Naples International Airport is located 3 miles from the Capodichino district of Naples and about 18 miles from Sorrento. You can stay in one of the Sorrento hotels, B&Bs and pensions with Booking.com.

Sorrento is the busiest city of the Amalfi area which means hotels are cheaper and there is more night life, but you dont really have the extraordinary beaches and swimming of the more southern towns.

Staying is Sorrento is a good base but stay close to the centre where everything such as the beach, shops, buses, train and restaurants are within walking distance.
Make sure you take the public bus to Positano, it is comfortable and cheap. The Isle of Capri is also a must do, a beautiful day on the water, but a busy township. Expensive shopping.

We used Sorrento as our home base to see the Amalfi Coast and could not have been happier! Booking the private boat tours is a must but be aware the seas can be quite rough as they were on the day we went to Capri! Our boat tour to Amalfi, Positano, Neurono with Peppe of La Gran Seola was the highlight of our trip as he goes above and beyond and lunch at his wife's restaurant on Neurono was outstanding!! All the restaurants we went to in Sorrento were excellent but the best was at the hotel itself and at Tasso!

Lovely place lots to do around area, with trips, shopping, and restaurants. Would love to visit again.
Going down to Grande Marina is a bit of a walk, some people may need to use hotel with a bus. I would recommend using the fast train service to Naples if you have cases, costs a bit more but worth it for a seat.

Don't miss this place.
Don't miss this place. Absolutely enchanting. Great places to eat. Great places to shop. Spectacular scenery. Many ferries to Capri, Positano, Amalfi and Ischia. All great day trips from Sorrento. Also very easy to take local train to Pompeii and even Naples.
“Everything was just perfect. Staff very friendly. Breakfast as much as you could eat freshly topped up every few minutes. Amazing views from my balcony. Cool garden which was very colorful and sweetly scented.
Good parking at a reasonable cost for Sorrento if you dare to take a vehicle.
Beach area for swimming in the sea for older children and a pool in the hotel grounds for younger children.
You definitely get what you pay for. Quality, cleanliness, comfort, views, excellent staff and good food.
Loved it.”
“Fantastic hotel and staff were very friendly and helpful. Set just outside Sorrento up in the hills the hotel has a fantastic view across the bay and is quiet and peaceful.
I was upgraded to a suite which was spacious, comfortable and set in the gardens with its own terrace which was lovely. Pool is also fantastic and plenty of sun loungers.”
“The best is the location! Right in the heart of Sorrento, convenient distance to Piazza Tasso and the train station. The owner was really kind, everything was clean. Keep in mind it's not a hotel and you have to share the shower with the rest of the guests. ”
