Hotel Il Faro Sorrento

"Really positive experience! Spent 5 nights here in the middle of August and really enjoyed our stay. We had booked a triple room with ocean view. The room was spacious with a fridge. A/C and a ceiling fan kept the room nice and cool. Location is quite central, with either stairs up or a lift to the town. Atmosphere felt cozy but not too busy. Always was able to find a seat at the pool. At €270 it may be a bit expensive for what it is, though keep in mind it is peak season. Room was always clean and housekeeping did an excellent job, toiletries always restocked. Noise was somewhat elevated in the mornings being beside the port, but nothing offensive. Service was polite and efficient. One annoying thing is the lift is far to small for the hotel and doesn’t have the appropriate capacity."

"Great location, friendly staff, but not value for money"

"Actually, I would prefer to give it a 4.5 stars. It’s a beautiful place nestled on the side of the mountain. The rooftop pool and bar is great. The room was cozy and clean. The only item I would have preferred to have is air conditioning. There is a big fan in the room that was ok and we made the best of it. For anyone going to that direction, take the bus from the train station for 2€. It’ll bring you right down to the hotel without shlepping the luggage down the 200+ steps. Breakfast was a light meal, as expected in Italy."
