Comfort Hotel Gardenia

We had a lovely time in Sorento at Hotel Gardenia! The staff was extremely cordial and welcoming from the time we checked in and were offered fresh squeezed lemonade, to restaurant suggestions, to providing a custom seafood dinner for one with fresh shrimp, squid, fettuccine and tomatoes and homemade tiramasu for dessert. Chef Tiziana, Receptionist Antonio, and Night Porter/Receptionist Giuseppe made us feel at home and helped bridge the gap for Americans needing information on ferry schedules and excursions to Capris' Blue Grotto and best recommendations for trains to Pompeii. And the pool in the afternoon left us revived and refrehed after our daytime excursions. Thank you Hotel Gardenia staff for helping make Sorento a favorite stop on our tour of Italy!

Un séjour génial ! Nous recommandons cet hôtel les yeux fermés. Tout était impeccable : propreté irréprochable, petit déjeuner délicieux, personnel d'une grande gentillesse. Une mention spéciale à la propriétaire, qui s’est montrée particulièrement attentionnée tout au long de notre séjour. Le rapport qualité-prix est excellent, la piscine est superbe et l’emplacement idéal, proche du centre-ville et des restaurants. Encore un grand merci à toute l’équipe !

Our family had a wonderful experience at this hotel. The location was great and we were within walking distance to everything. The staff were kind and accommodating too. Many have worked at the hotel for years which tells you something about the warm environment. We appreciated the option to enjoy spare time at the hotel pool which was lovely since we’ve been holidaying for several weeks and needed some down time with young kids. Breakfast in the morning was pleasant but the real surprise came at night. After arriving back late from a day trip to Ischia we felt too tired to venture out so we dined in the hotel restaurant . Tiziana’s spaghetti carbonara was by far the best I’ve eaten in my life! It was just what we needed and we were most grateful.

We had a really wonderful week at Hotel Gardenia from 14–21 July 2025. The hotel has a boutique feel, clearly designed with care - the cool marble floors and stylish décor give it a fresh, modern atmosphere. Our room was very comfortable with excellent air conditioning, a modern bathroom with a great shower, and a spacious balcony, The beds were also extremely comfortable, which made for a very relaxing stay. The pool was a generous size and never felt crowded, even in July, and the sunbathing garden beside it was a lovely tranquil spot, with a sea view. The poolside bar served incredible cocktails, which were a real highlight. The staff truly made our visit special. The breakfast team were especially warm and welcoming, quickly remembering our favourite morning drinks. The reception staff were outstanding - when we arrived, they were waiting for us with snacks and drinks in the lobby (a first for us!), and took time to explain the best local restaurants and points of interest around Sorrento. Tiziana, in particular, was a terrific cook and a constant presence around the hotel. She often offered delicious homemade appetisers and helped make the atmosphere feel personal and welcoming. The cleaning staff were also excellent, with rooms maintained to a high standard and an unexpected evening turndown service that was a nice touch. The hotel is well located, just a flat 20-minute walk from the centre of town - far enough to be peaceful but close enough to enjoy Sorrento’s energy. The management clearly take pride in the hotel and were receptive to any suggestions, creating a feeling of genuine hospitality. If you need a private transfer, to or from the airport, let the hotel know in advance and they will kindly arrange this for you with Seduction Vacanze, a travel company with whom they have a long-standing relationship. You can then be confident of a smooth, punctual journey, and a safe driver, with a trusted and experienced local provider. If you’re wondering where to stay in Sorrento - just book it. You will be exceptionally well looked after here.
