Hotel Sorrento Experience (Sorrento, Italy)

If you're looking for a tranquil escape from the buzz of Sorrento, you should feel well at this authentic guesthouse. Whilst guests appreciate the calm, they also like being relatively close to the centre.

Guests vouch that it is cheaper here than being in the middle of Sorrento and offers far better value. You have a nice spacious room and large balcony to relax on and can enjoy the superb copious breakfasts that are brought to you every morning.

There is a real warm family feeling to the place, thanks to the exceptional customer care offered by the hosts. They are extremely friendly and often pick up guests from the railway station or drop them off in town or at the port.

Finding the place is not only a challenge for guests, but also for taxi drivers - many of whom don't seem to know where it is. Even when you find the place, you have to navigate down a tricky and narrow road - wide enough for only one small car to pass. Guests testify that taxis won't even try to go up it and you will have to walk the final few hundred metres.

For certain guests this accommodation is just a little too far too walk into town from and back. There is nothing nearby and certainly no restaurants - so you're pretty much obliged to make the ten to fifteen minute trek if you have no car. Guests also comment that you also have to scale a rather steep hill to get back.

Guests are not happy to report that their double beds are just two singles pushed together. This is not ideal nor very comfortable.
