Cliffside Splendor on Sorrento's Breathtaking Coast

Sorrento center, perched above Marina Piccola

Why We Recommend It

Operating since 1834, this family-owned landmark blends historic grandeur with breathtaking views of the Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius. Its unique position offers both central convenience and serene exclusivity, with the private elevator connecting guests directly to the marina for boats to Capri and the Amalfi Coast. The hotel’s illustrious past—having hosted Wagner, who composed part of Parsifal here—adds cultural significance to an already exceptional property.

Atmosphere and Design

Set within three historic buildings surrounded by lush gardens, the hotel maintains its Belle Époque splendor while offering modern luxuries. Each room is uniquely decorated with antique furnishings, hand-painted tiles, and period details.
