stunning view - but unbalanced price value experience

review based on 10 days stay with family of 5 adults. Our comments and reflections: Positives: - stunning view over Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuv from restaurant and pool & garden area - clean & spacy standard rooms - well assorted breakfast buffet and tasty food items/dishes generally offered also for lunch and dinner - hourly hotel shuttle service to and from Sorrento city center - friendly, humoristic and helpful staff - plenty of sunbed capacity in pool area and no "sunbed war" issues Negatives: - dinner and lunch card with too little variation for a 10 day stay. - generally highly overprized foods and drinks. Note especially a mandatory dinner "coperto" charge of 5 EUR each person which is a factor 2,5 to restaurants in Sorrento city. Neutral: - surprisingly to us this hotel is also booked by families with smaller children making e.g. the Pool area a "lively" experience. - Even not solely Hotel responsibility the shuttle service offered has too low capacity in peak hours. Pick up zone in Sorrento city is completely wild west. Queuing culture is non existing and service is absolutely not guaranteed, even if you are at pick up spot well in time. Driver will do a second tour but this still leaves you with another app. 40 min wait or a 40 EUR taxi ride Would we stay at Grand Hotel President if visiting Sorrento again? - most likely not primarily due to unbalanced price / value relation

First class hotel, spectacular views and great for coeliacs

Wonderful hotel and excellent service! Striking views and lots of peaceful outdoor seating areas to choose from; couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Myself and my daughter have coeliac disease and the hotel understood our dietary needs and catered extremely well at every meal (we were half board). We received freshly baked gluten and dairy free croissants at breakfast and individually wrapped bread items. At dinner the head waiter and chef even organised special dessert options for us! First class customer service and really clean rooms which were beautifully bright and spacious (it’s definitely worth upgrading to sea view balcony rooms!). Definitely plan to return to this hotel in future!

Excellent all round. Great location with amazing panoramic views of the bay of Naples and Vesuvius. The staff were warm, friendly and incredibly helpful. The waiters in particular in the restaurant made us feel relaxed and welcome at all meal times. Staying half board gave us the flexibility to take dinner or lunch, depending on plans. The variety on the menu was great and each meal superb. The hotel itself is stylish, spacious with great restaurant and bar seating. Our ground floor sea-view bedrooms were spacious, clean and well equipped. The pool area itself was bay facing and very well maintained. The excursion options from the hotel itself were good too. Would recommend to any one of any age, a wonderful hotel.

We have just returned from this beautiful hotel . The hotel is high on the cliffs above Sorrento and has spectacular views of the Bay of Naples and Vesuvius. It has lovely gardens and pool area with plenty of sun lounges. There are two bars, one a rooftop bar. The staff are friendly professional and very helpful. The food was very good and the breakfast choice was amazing. We had a beautiful room on the third floor with fantastic floor tiles. It had fantastic views from a large balcony. The hotel also provides a courtesy bus that runs to and from Sorrento hourly and when busy makes more trips with some good tunes playing. The hotel is spotlessly clean. I made the mistake of booking excursions before we left and was disappointed in myself when I realised the hotel helped you book (sea) and were cheaper and more convenient. It was my birthday whilst there and I was left a bottle of fizzy to share with my husband when we arrived back to the hotel one day.

Map

Grand Hotel President is located about 3 km from the center of Sorrento, the guests can use the hotel's free shuttle to travel to and from town in just minutes. There is also a SITA bus route for Sant'Agata sui due Golfi which stops just 200 meters from the hotel.

Grand Hotel President is perfectly situated for visiting the entire Sorrentine Peninsula and the nearby Amalfi Coast, and for taking day trips to the archaeological sites of Pompeii and Herculaneaum.
