Grand Hotel Hermitage & Villa Romita

la tranquilidad y las instalaciones

The view was stunning, you look down on Sorrento and directly over to Vesuvius

No Gym. Parking was a little limited

We stayed at the ghh after a friend's recommendation and were not disappointed. What a fabulous location! We had rooms with seaview and balcony - fabulous view down mountain over the lemon and olive groves to Sorrento and across the bay of naples to Vesuvius. Spacious room with very comfy bed and large balcony. Air conditioning was very welcome, and as hotel is up in the hills above Sorrento it was a little cooler than the town. There is a regular free minibus service in and out of town, and free parking at the hotel. We ate in the hotel every night - reasonably priced and very good, and we were able to sit outside at tables set up around the pool area, and enjoy that fantastic view. Wonderful staff, nothing too much trouble.

Decor a little old fashioned, perhaps, and some of the fittings showing a little wear and tear,but we liked it; it went with the old fashoned courtesy and service of the staff. Only things we disliked were having to pay extra for use of safe and internet, when these are often included; and the fact that the chambermaid had clearly been smoking in the corridors in between cleaning the rooms. Also the locals had lots of very noisy firework displays at all hours when we were there, altho we didn't find out what they were celebrating!
