Hotel Admiral

"Just got home after an amazing stay at this hotel. We stayed 7 nights and felt it was the perfect location in sorrento. The hotel was quiet and not at all overcrowded. The staff are so friendly and happy to help with anything at all! We stayed in a superior sea view room which had a lovely view and balcony. The only improvement we felt could be made would be to add a full length mirror in the room and more plug sockets. Other than that we found it perfect, the air-con worked great and the bed was comfy. We had bed & breakfast which was lovely & we stayed in the hotel for food one evening. The meal we had in the restaurant was one of our favourites the entire trip!! Would definitely recommend this hotel, however be aware if you struggle with mobility it is about a 20 minute walk to the port for ferry’s and the taxis cannot drive onto the marina therefore you will need to walk approx 4 minutes with your suitcase to get to the hotel - this was fine for us"

"Stayed at the Hotel Admiral first week of June 26. Following a change of coach to a smaller 8 seater to be able to get onto the Marina grande, the hotel is a short walk away. We had a sea view room and the view must rank as the best we have ever had! The view across the bay of Naples with Vesuvius as a backdrop is simply stunning. Our sea view room seems to have been recently renovated and to a good standard. My only suggestion is the lack of storage is an issue in the room itself. The shower was good, but no shelf to put anything on, so shampoo and shower gel etc needs to be on the floor. Not ideal if you have any mobility issues. The only plug socket in the room was behind the tv. So I had to pull the tv away from the wall to plug in our phone charger. We learned that the non standard euro sockets by the bed are 110v, and so we bought additional adapter from UK - to euro- to 110! Pretty frustrating! The location is fabulous down on the Marina grande where there are several restaurants of good quality locally. It’s a bit of a steep climb up into Sorrento from the Marina, and so this may not be ideal for some. Breakfast was excellent, but we did not eat at the hotel for lunch or dinner due to the incredibly expensive pricing (€22 for a beer and a soft drink!) We visited the Michelin star restaurant next door where prices were much lower! The drinks prices were a bit of a spoiler and they don’t let you consume your own drinks in the pool area. We had a fantastic holiday and loved the area. The hotel is good but would be much improved by addressing the storage in the room and those extortionate bar prices!"

"Visit the hotel and region in the first two weeks of May26. The hotel is at a quiet corner of Marina Grande with good connection to Sorento town and restaurants just yards away. The hotel has a great vista and getting woken in the morning by the sun is a beautiful experience . Our room was a balcony with sea view and the view over to mount Vesuvius and Napoli was romantic and spectacular . The breakfast room was bright and the selection was good. Especially to mention was the fresh baked sourdough bread in the morning. The staff is very friendly and did their utmost to make our holiday enjoyable. Thanks to Virginia who looked after us with bookings and local advice ."
