  : This was a beautiful hotel which was very clean. The staff were all very helpful and the food was great too. They have a dedicated vegetarian and vegan menu which was useful.
  : Nothing, the hotel was great.

  : Fabulous views from the bar and restaurant
  : We were in the Annex, about 200m walk from the hotel, not good when raining

  : It is an attractive hotel with great pool area and the staff are very good. It is very clean and the breakfast is excellent. There is a pool snack menu serving sandwiches and a lunchtime menu which is good. They lay on a courtesy bus to the centre which is good and runs frequently during the day. There is a handy 15min walk to the centre if you miss the bus or fancy the exercise. It is a bit steep coming back up but not too bad.
  : The food in the restaurant is quite expensive and quite rich. The portion sizes are huge and I feel especially the starters could do with being smaller. One starter I had was enough for 4 people (and I have a good appetite!). I feel they could do with another food option in the evening along the lines of their lunchtime menu because if you dont fancy the full blown restaurant menu there is no other option other than to into the centre to eat - I feel like they are missing a trick there. It would be useful to have a bus back around 10.30. Currently there is a 2hr gap between 9.30 and 11.30 for the courtesy bus and it is a bit of a rush to eat and get the 9.30 unless you eat very early. A taxi costs 35 one way.

  : Excellent on-site restaurant. Quite fancy in the evening. Very nice if you dont want to go into town. Quiet hotel. Convenient hourly shuttle to get into town. However it does stop running from 12:30-3:30 then resumes in the evening. Excellent view of the sea, with Mt. Vesuvius in the background. Beautiful balcony for our room (seaside sunset view).
  : Relying on the shuttle is a slight nuisance but the fact that it is free negates that. We tried walking back to the hotel from Sorrento, but it was a 45 minute walk up steps and twisting small moped roads. We dont recommend it but its an option for you if you dont mind. Hard to dislike this hotel it was great!
