Hotel Antiche Mura

My wife and I decided to use Sorrento as our "base" during a 10-day vacation in Italy, and we did so partly because Sorrento looked absolutely beautiful and partly because the town sits not too far from other sites we wanted to see: Naples, Pompeii, Herculaneum, Paestum, the Amalfi Coast. We chose the Hotel Antiche Mura based on reviews and on photos, as well as on the prices, which seemed reasonable. And we were not disappointed! The hotel itself is a beautiful structure, full of yellow and white flourishes, immaculately kept, and managed by incredibly polite and helpful staff at the front desk, the bar, and the breakfast room. All speak English. And the breakfasts are delightful: so many dishes to chose from, including healthy options (as well as some not-so-healthy but deliciously fresh ones, some including locally grown lemons). Don't miss the section of the old city wall in the hotel garden, and the lemon grove there; and of course you can't miss the gorge (or "Valley of the Mills" as they call it there) over which the hotel is perched--it's an amazing site, and one you won't tire of no matter how many days you stay. The vibrant Piazza Tasso is only one block away, along with the narrow cobblestoned medieval streets with all their shops and churches. (If you look carefully, you can find many Roman artifacts integrated into later medieval and Renaissance structures here and there within walking distance of the hotel.) I very highly recommend Hotel Antiche Mura and would very much stay there again.

Perfect hotel to visit Sorrento, it is located in Piazza Tasso, which at this time of year is magnificent, but at the same time a bit secluded. The rooms are very nice and clean, offers garage service (indispensable!) There is also a small garden, with swimming pool, very romantic full of lemon and orange trees. Breakfast is strong on desserts, a little less for the assortment of savory. Value for money good. The staff was very kind.

Very nice clean great breakfast. Nice reception. The only flaw for a Neapolitan find the Nescafé with kettle
