I stayed here in Late June 2008 with my family (4 people) and babysitter. 2 rooms for 2 nights cost ?600 so it wasn't cheap but it was worth the money. Individual panel controlled air con in each room....we had rooms at front of hotel but because of aircon could keep door to balcony closed so there was not traffic noise despite it being on the main road leading to centre of Sorrento. Hotel has good pool and all staff were very helpful, especially towards children (3 and 6), and the food at breakfast was good. Only gripe is that you pay ?600 for accomodation but they still charge you ?11 per day to park car at rear of hotel. The Hotel is situated about a 10 minute walk down slope into main square of Sorreto (Piazza Tasso). Overall I would recommend this hotel to people travelling to Sorrento on a reasonable budget.

A three star hotel which is comparable with a four star facility. It is a ten minute walk from the train station and located on the main thoroughfare, Corso Italia. The hotel has been newly rennovated and the result is pleasant. The room's temperature controls are digital, and there is an energy saving card entry system that shuts off lights when you leave. There is a free room safe which was very handy and our parking was included in the price. The rooms and hotel are very clean, the rooms warm (a plus in Southern Italy in early spring where many 3 star hotels we stayed in were below comfort temperature). The breakfast buffet was gernerous and above average for Southern Italy in our experience, with some home baked items. The staff were very friendly, and attentive. The maid service was the best we had in Italy. Staff spoke both English and French. Sorrento is an expensive location but at 80 Euros for two people per night the price was (relative to other locations in Sorrento) good value for money.

This hotel provided a good place to stay in Sorrento. The best points were the pool, which had a bar providing excellent quality and value for money food, and the breakfast. The down side was that it is situated on the main road in to Sorrento, so traffic noise is an issue. Our room was of the standard you would expect, and when we had a problem with the air-conditioning it was sorted out promptly. Staff at the front desk were helpful with all the queries we had. The town centre was about 15 minutes walk away, but along the busy road with narrow pavements, so not good for travellers with young children.

Nous avons été accueillis merveilleusement. Personnel très agréable, très disponible et très à l'écoute. Le personnel saura vous guider (visites, restaurant ....) Locaux très élégants. Chambres spatieuses, refaîtes récemment avec clim, terasses .... Tout le confort. Aucune difficulté de language (personnel maîtrisant parfaitement le français). Grande et belle pisicine. Hotel à seulement 10 minutes du centre ville à pied. En conclusion, nous avons passé un merveilleux séjour et nous vous conseillons cet hôtel.

Moi et ma famille ( 2 adultes et deux enfants de 8 et 12 ans) avons passé une semaine inoubliable à l'hotel Gardenia. Cet hotel géré directement par les proprietaires a tout pour séduire:le personnel est efficace,toujours aimable, souriant et presque tous parlent couramment francais et ont de bonnes astuces à livrer,que ce soit pour les visites ou pour le shopping et les restaurants; le petit-déjeuner est incroyable,il n y a que des produits frais et de qualité: gateaux,croissants et biscuits fait maison,oeufs,charcuterie,fromages,yaourts,céréales,jus de fruits,véritables capuccino et autres boissons chaudes que les serveurs apportent directement à la table et toujours avec le sourire! En ce qui concerne les chambres je dois dire que j'ai eu un choc à notre arrivée lorsque la receptionniste nous a dit que notre chambre se situait au premier étage donnant sur la route principale qui est plutot bruyante!j ai tout de suite protesté car j'avais peur de ne pas pouvoir dormir la nuit (surtout pour les enfants),mais en entrant dans la chambre j'ai été agréablement surprise de constater qu'une fois la fenetre fermée (pour la chaleur il y a la clim)c'est le silence total!Le proprietaire nous a expliqué que ils avaient fais de gros travaux pour insonoriser l'hotel et c'est reussi! De plus les chambres sont belles et spacieuses et sont nettoyées tous les jours. l'hotel est à 10 minutes à pieds du centre ville et c'est vraiment pratique. bref je conseille vivement ce charmant petit hotel ainsi que la ville de Sorrento qui est propre,bien organisée et proche de tous les sites à visiter.
