I am normally not one to write reviews, but me and my partner both had the best stay here at the Grand President Hotel - Sorrento. Firstly the staff, every single member of staff at this hotel is amazing - very attentive and caring, nothing was too much at all. Our room was also lovely, we were in the neighbouring Villa Sacco which was perfect ! Rooms spacious and extrmeley clean, couldn’t of asked for anything more. Also very comfortable bed and pillows!! The hotel is also extremely calm and quiet - which made a lovely retreat away from the Amalfi coast and Sorrento. A lot of reviews here regarding the shuttle bus, but we did not see any problem with it. Every trip we did back and forth there was numerous spare seats left, apart from 1 journey and the driver came back for us straight away, only an added 10 minute wait which was no problem. Uber is about 15-20 euro. Breakfast was good, we also stayed a couple of evenings for dinner which was a high level - very tasty and quite reasonable priced given Sorrento pricing in town. We will definetley be back sometime in the future - thank you for the lovely stay!

Well run and comfortable hotel with helpful friendly staff and excellent facilities. We had a sea view room which was worth it for the views of the town and the bay across to Vesuvius. The hotel is outside and above Sorrento and is a good compromise if you want some relaxing pool days as well as a good base for days out. For pool days the main pool area is served by a bar where you get your pool towels, drinks and snacks. It is a stunning setting perched high on the hillside and gets sun all day. The hotel also has a roof terrace with comfortable seats and beds. For days (and nights) out there is the courtesy shuttle bus. It’s an 18 seat mini-coach which isn’t big enough for the size of the hotel and the number of guests but is probably the maximum size for the private road up to the hotel. If you want to use the bus join the queue as long as it is less than 18 people in front of you! It drops you off in the centre of Sorrento a short walk from the Piazza Tasso and the train station. The only problem with the bus is the return back to the hotel. The pickup spot is used by all the hotel courtesy buses so a big group of people gathers and there is no way of queuing or knowing who is on what bus. When your hotel bus arrives there is a scramble for seats. Get on the coach and you save the 40 euro taxi cost which is what everyone must be thinking. If you are not “assertive” enough you miss out although on one occasion the driver came back for those left behind. The alternative to the bus is to walk down into Sorrento which is actually a nice walk, you follow a quiet road and some steps down, takes about 25 minutes to get into the centre. We also walked back up to the hotel a couple of times, it’s not actually too hard a climb but won’t be welcome if it’s hot weather. The hotel is that really good balance between resort hotel and base for exploring. Breakfast is really good with lots of choice and we ate in the restaurant a couple of times and the food was as good and a similar price to the restaurants in town. A great choice for your holiday in Sorrento.

This Gorgeous hotel is in Sorrento Hills and accessible via the free shuttle bus into town that runs every hour from the hotel. (Note: The shuttle bus isn’t big enough to accommodate everyone at times - so be prepared to use taxis at some point (about 30 euro one way). However, the views from the bar, restaurant and rooms are so worth it - just breathtaking. The breakfast is amazing - lots of good food on offer and the staff are lovely. Housekeeping was five star. If you want a quiet location, out of town with the best views - this is the place to stay!!

Stayed here in a sea view room on the 5th floor with the best view of the bay of Naples. Each room also has a shower or jacuzzi bath on the balcony. Our bathroom was huge with a jacuzzi bath in the window to enjoy the view. It wasn’t working on the first night but was quickly fixed. The hotel is a maximum of a 20 min drive into town which is provided by the hotel, well worth it for the peace and quiet from Sorrento centre. My only negative would be to have black out curtains, they were thick but not enough for that early morning sun. Breakfast has an amazing selection of items. Ate at the hotel a couple of times and it was ok, obviously drinks and food are hotel prices! Having said that most of Sorrento is! Staff were very helpful throughout. Pool area is clean, gardens are beautiful.
