Hotel Villa Maria

Was very pleasantly surprised by the hotel. My room was large and clean. Looked better than the pictures. Aircon was fantastic. Really good location just at the end of the main shopping street. Didn’t have any issues with noise. Pool area was amazing. Breakfast was good and varied enough that you’d find something you’d like. It was a European breakfast so limited hot foods and more pastry, toast, yogurt, fruit etc. Staff were always so friendly and welcoming. Cleaners on my floor were especially lovely every time I saw them. Would happily return.

The hotel is located 2 minutes from the main pedestrian area, in close proximity to many restaurants and cafes. The hotel's pool is heated and the water is constantly at 25 degrees; it is cleaned every evening. The breakfast is very good and varied. You can opt to have lunch by the pool; there is a different menu every day, and the main course and a drink at the pool restaurant cost €16. The hotel is clean, and the towels were changed daily. The furniture in the hotel is somewhat outdated, but this is compensated for by the modern pool and beach area.

Nice breakfast buffet. Great location. Nice pool.

Fantastic location right in the centre of Sorrento - a good breakfast set us up for the day. Lovely pool where the staff were pleasant.

I wouldn't be deterred by any negative reviews you read about this hotel. We have just returned after a two week stay, and would definitely return. The location is excellent, within walking distance of everything you need in the town. There's a supermarket next door, Marina Grande beach is an easy ten minute walk on the way down, and a cheap, regular, local bus will bring you back up if you don't fancy the climb. All the shops, bars, restaurants etc are easy to walk to, and on the whole, the food in the restaurants is excellent. Our rooms were a very good size, spotlessly clean, and had balconies with stunning views over the bay and Mount Vesuvius. The rooms were quiet at night, with no noise to be heard from the road below or any neighbouring rooms. Breakfast consisted of a vast array of choice, was plentiful and of good quality. The dining room was expertly managed and due to the efficiency of the staff, supplies never ran low. Without exception, every member of staff we spoke to was polite, friendly and couldn't have been more helpful. I won't hesitate to stay again in the future.
