Beach Hotels in Sorrento

The Hotel Continental was the perfect hotel for our Sorrento-based portion of our vacation. Every single staff member we encountered, from the front desk to the concierge, to the breakfast staff, was kind, considerate, and pleasant. One of the gentlemen who works the breakfast was always singing and whistling, which always brought a smile to my face. Breakfast was amazing, with lots of options. I am gluten-free and dairy free, and they had plenty for me to eat. They had at least five different kinds of milk (regular, soy, almond, rice, etc…) and had a basket of assorted gluten-free muffins and bread. We booked an inside room with a hotel view, and I was nervous about what the room would be like. It was perfect! It was spacious, clean, and the bed was very comfortable. Surprisingly, our room had a balcony, but it overlooked other hotel balconies. No problem since we were rarely in our room. The hotel is adjacent to a park which has an amazing view of the sunset. We did have cocktails on the rooftop bar one night, but they were a bit pricy compared to the area restaurants, so we only did that one night. The hotel is also within walking distance to many restaurants, shopping, and the steps to get to the marina, and you could walk to the train station if needed.

The hotel is at a great location, surrounded by scenic spots where you can reach on foot. The hotel itself is also good, meeting the brand price positioning. Its cleanness, breakfast, facilities, and service comply with the standards.

We had the incredible experience of spending five nights in the palatial Margaret Room which was in a class of its own with excellent views of the ocean from its balcony. This is a grand, magnificent hotel. The views from its terrace is spectacular. The service is top level at all times. The buffet breakfast is excellent with live piano music and spectacular views of the ocean. The soirees and dinners we attended were exquisitely done.

This hotel is located a few meters from Sorrento’s main street and square. Everything is within walking distance. Another plus is the hotel staff. They are all friendly and helpful. Breakfast is ok for a 4* hotel with the advantage that you may eat outside. Pool is only 1.40 meters deep. But you can have a relaxing time there. We never had problems getting chairs. Our room was outside the main building near the pool (602). It was the right size for us three, very clean. We enjoyed the proximity to the pool. All in all, maybe one of the best options in Sorrento.

We were a group of 3 couples and due to the time of year, we were limited on room choices so our experiences varied. Room 1, large room with sitting area and two balconies - very good. Room 2, double room with balcony facing the train line - satisfactory Room 3, twin room with window, cramped and dark. However, we were not in the rooms much so it didn't affect anyone too much. The breakfast room was beautiful and a good range of food was on offer. The location was brilliant, walking distance to everything.

We stayed here for one night in April 2023. Given some of the previous reviews we were more than pleasantly surprised. Our stay started well, the lady on reception (whose name we can’t remember) was extremely welcoming and helpful. We were upgraded to a road facing superior room which had been newly refurbished. It was lovely with a great bathroom. We were worried about the traffic noise but with the balcony doors closed it was fine. We would not recommend spending a long time on the balcony given the main road location but there is a pool area with plenty of outside space. The bar was very good and well run. The bar prices were competitive. The hotel is a ten to fifteen minute walk to Piazza Tasso. Located near the hotel is the excellent Banana Split Bar and Master Hosts Restaurant (don’t be put off by the name, we found the food really good and the prices reasonable). There is also a pub next to the hotel, but we did not try that. The breakfast is as others have said not a four star breakfast hence our score of four not five.

Amenities were great and staff was super helpful. They had a shuttle to city centre which took 1.5 euros each way which was good, as the location was 15 min drive. Only downside for us was it was difficult to reach here from Port or from Train station. It took almost 50 min to reach here as buses are not frequent. Finding the right bus was a hassle as google maps bus number and actual was way different. You have to check with drivers to know. The team here were having all the bus n train tickets so we dont have to get in line for tickets this was a plus.

Old money style hotel, breakfast while looking at the sea, good food, suitable for vacation

This was without a doubt the best room I have ever stayed in - suite with hot tub room 501. It was enormous - it felt bigger than the advertised 50sq m - Llounge, normally set up with a large sofa, coffee table , 2 armchairs plus a separate desk was used as a second bedroom - my daughter says that it was the most comfortable sofa bed ever, she even had her own shower room / wc. Main bedroom was huge, queen size bed, beautiful furniture plenty of power sockets. Main bathroom was, I guess about 20sqm on it’s own - hot tub was actually just a bath with jacuzzi jets. Separate large shower cubicle, double sinks, wc and bidet. 4 separate balconies all looking over the bay of Naples (even one in the bathroom) Hotel itself was a bit dated and breakfast was OK. Fantastic location - 300m from train station, 400m from main square. I believe that the hotel is being done up over the winter - which s a shame because I’m pretty sure it will be well over what we will be able to afford.
