Amalfi Coast Hotels

Sorrento - amazing town, amazing hotel!

Advantages: Great sights, proffesional, good service, clean
Disadvantages: Quite expensive

...you like to walk! This Hilton hotel was one of the last places we picked to have a look at (probably because Paris Hilton came into our minds!), but we booked it in the end because of the quality of the hotel based on reviews. The prices are a bit high, it all depends on the budget your planning to spend. On www.lastminute.com, the room prices are £146 - £310. The prices vary depending on what season you wish to visit Sorrento. The hotel was brilliant ...
...than one restaurants in the Hilton hotel but my family and I only went to one. The restaurant we went to every breakfast and dinner was brilliant. A buffet for breakfast with fresh egg, sausages, croissants, other pastries, and other refreshing food to wake you up for the day. At dinner in the evening, it's a whole different story. It's a menu based service where you chose from a few dishes for an astonishing 4 courses. It was such a change from ...

Review of Hilton Sorrento Palace, Sorrento

Grand Hotel Excelsior

Advantages: Beautiful View
Disadvantages: Apalling food

...Italian holiday. The Grand Hotel Excelsior was my residence for numerous weeks holiday, and it certainly not one for the faint hearted! In the Thompson guide book it is described as 'quaint' which to put it politely is rather an understatement. One thing that can be said for it is it is completely oozing with Italian charm. ARRIVAL/ LOCATION If you book with Thompson as we did (though other tour operators go to the same location) flights go from ...
...and a half hours to get to Naples International Airport. From Naples the coastal resort of Amalfi is approximately two hours drive, depending on how confident the driver is. For a fee of £15.00 a transfer to the hotel can be booked, and I completely advise this is purchased, as a taxi would cost over 50 euros. The first time I went they picked us up in a small people carrier, but the other times we have been in a coach. Let me tell you, the Amalfi ...

Review of Excelsior Grand Hotel, Amalfi

Fantastic, Charming, Friendly Hotel

Advantages: Amazing views
Disadvantages: Not in town center - although this isn't necessarily a disadvantage!

...now stayed at Johanna Park Hotel twice. Once in June 2005 and again in June 2008. This hotel is simply excellent. Johanna and her fantastic staff make you feel right at home and couldn't be more helpful. It's like no other hotel experience I've had - it's as if you're staying with relatives rather than hoteliers. We drove to get to this hotel as we'd rented a car in Rome. Also we had a map to provide directions. The drive through to Sorrento is ...
...really appreciated this. The hotel rooms are spacious, clean and well decorated. Beds are a nice size and comfortable! Great showers and the cleaning staff always do a perfect job. The rooms on the front of the hotel overlook the Bay of Naples, obviously Vesuvius being the most prominant feature. Sunsets on the balcony, with a drink in hand are just fantastic. There's internet access in the reception and a bar that's open into the night. There's ...

Review of Porto Salvo, Sorrento

Nothing special!

Advantages: Central, clean, spacious
Disadvantages: overpriced, unfriendly staff

...recently spent a week in Conca Park and I have to say that whilst we enjoyed our stay, this hotel is nothing special. It is clean and spacious located right in the heart of Sorrento and has a lovely patio for sipping cocktails (shame nobody uses it!). We booked based on online reviews - all praising the 'wonderful staff ' . Our experience was a bit different and we found them quite unfriendly really! Both the waiters and the reception staff. The ...
...the bathroom wasn't so great - really basic with a tiny shower. Not what we expected for the price! One thing we couldn't fault was the beautiful view of the bay of Naples from our balcony! It really is worth paying a bit extra for a sea view room. Another good point was the good-sized pool which is spotlessy clean. The only down side is the fact that theres not a lot of sun in the pool area as it is blocked by the mountain from about 1pm-3pm. Sun ...
