Via Bernardino Rota, 44, - Sorrento

Perched directly above the sea, with a series of tunnels carved into the rock leading down to the private beach, Hotel Parco dei Principi is a masterpiece of Italian architecture, designed by architect Giò Ponti in the 1960s, that blends seamlessly with the intense beauty of Sorrento and its views.

A history since the 1700s

The story of Parco dei Principi goes back a long way: first a residence for nobles from the 1700s, then a stage for lavish parties and receptions the following century. In the mid-20th century, architect Giò Ponti was commissioned to transform the historic villa into a luxury hotel in complete harmony with its surroundings. Here, the blue of sky, sea and majolica tiles fuses into one living whole, the same energy found in the hotel's bright rooms, some overlooking the botanical garden, others opening onto the sea.

The Family Room park view, set in the greenery, is the perfect choice for families: a double room and a living area with sofa bed in two separate rooms, each with its own TV.

Sea and pool luxury

The hotel's private beach is one of a kind: a small pebble beach and a crescent-shaped rocky coastline reachable from the hotel through a tunnel cut into the rock, a true corner of paradise on the Sea of the Sirens. The outdoor seawater pool, designed by Giò Ponti, sits within the hotel's botanical garden: a mirror of seawater with sculpted peninsulas and a diving board-ladder rising from the depths.

Dining by the sea

Whether at the Parco dei Principi Bistrot, overlooking the sea with Mediterranean cuisine, or at Ristorante Poggio Siracusa, perched on stilts above the water with traditional local dishes, every meal here carries the flavours of Sorrento and the feel of the sea all around. The Blu Bar rounds off the offer for aperitivos and relaxed moments.

Staying active on holiday? At Parco dei Principi the gym is open 24 hours a day.

Fantastic property, we have been coming to the Parco dei Principi for years and we always find professionalism, courtesy, and so much more. A thank you to everyone and in particular to Carmine and all his guys at the pool.

A nice hotel, with an excellent employee

The hotel is a classic designed by Gio Ponti, the famous Italian architect. It has great natural light, especially in the rooms. The recent refurbishment is nice preserving original features. The entry does feel a little void as it’s big and glass but that’s to capture the beautiful views that the hotel has, as well as its terraces. Great beach, swimming area, and terrace. The beach could stay open until 8PM in the summer for swimming but, a minimum detail. With the above background, I can give the proper backdrop. There is only one name you need to know in this hotel and it’s Massimiliano; He is the man. Every night when I would get back from dinner he would greet me smiling. He made sure we had everything we needed at all times. He ensued that everything was in order always, maintaining the utmost professionalism and Neapolitan hospitality. Massimiliano, also found and brought us a bag of presents we left on the terrace after drinks one evening. He told us that he remembered us walking in with the bag and when someone else found it he brought it to our room. No matter your mood Massimiliano can put a smile on your face and makes you feel like an individual guest with bespoke service. When he is working you get personalize and attentive responses. He remembers your name and makes it his job to take whatever you need to find a solution. If I had one recommendation to this hotel is to find more employees like him as he was the highlight of the hotel. He made the experience, and the price of the hotel worth it. The service he provides is similar to that in the Fours seasons, this type of service and training he has could be shown to the other employees across the property. Bravo, Massimiliano!!!

Massimiliano, the bellboy of the night. The best. The best

This review is solely for MASSIMILIANO, the bellboy of the night. My husband and I were about to leave since we arrived because the air conditioning was not working, we did not like the room, etc., but we went to dinner to take some time to think about what to do, and when we returned to the room, we called the reception about the air conditioning to send us a fan, and at that moment, MAGIC, they sent us Massimiliano, with his kind character, willing to help us, he fixed the air conditioning that someone else had checked and did not resolve, he fixed the connection to charge our cell phones, he helped us with ice for my husband's neuropathy, he also assisted us with the TV when we did not know how to set the channels, there was a fly in the room and he brought us bug spray, all in less than 10 minutes, he really made us feel at home, finally someone who treated us with respect and never stopped smiling. I would like everyone who visits this hotel to ask for him; he only works at night, and greet him, you will not regret it, he is a good man and loves his job. MASSIMILIANO, YOU ARE THE BEST.

Definitely not five stars. We were generally disappointed with the hotel. The pros are that they have a view. But so does everyone else. The cons: the hotel looks and feels like it’s outdated from the 70s, the food is terrible without flavor and very overpriced, the hotel gave us a hard time for snacking in their lobby while drunk hotrk wedding guests ran amock all night, and one of our rooms was leaking fluid from the ceiling into the room and it smelled like sewage. They offered us a lesser room. Terrible experience.
