Castelvetere in Val Fortore Holidays from NZ$487

Lovely hotel across from the train station. A bit noisy outside if the windows were opened, but amazing how they keep the sound out when they are closed. Didn’t get to have breakfast because our flight was very early. Front desk got us a cab in 2 minutes.

The hotel was excellent, standing views, clean, updated, comfortable bed and pillows, very clean, wonderful staff, great restaurant and bar, shuttle to go to the city, absolutely amazing!

We had the most wonderful 10 days here. I cannot praise the staff highly enough. Anna, Fabio and the reception team were brilliant with travel advice and arranging visits to various attractions. Gennaro and the restaurant team had the amazing talent of making you feel like you were the only people they were looking after. So friendly and full of great tips on places to visit. And the food was incredible, so huge compliments to the chef as well. Highly recommend this hotel.

I am so happy I found this gem just minutes from Sorrento. They have a shuttle that drops and PU to the center whenever you want. The staff is excellent and very friendly. The property is gorgeous and the rooms have an amazing view of mount Vesuvius. There is a village within 5 minutes walking distance. They have shops and great restaurants. We loved the tranquility around the hotel. It really felt like being in Italy.

The hotel is impeccable. The room was clean and spacious. No complaints about the property. However, is important to consider that is up in one of the hills. You can walk down to the town but it’s hard to climb back up. There is no sidewalk and the road is busy with buses, cars, motorcycles, etc. That is Amalfi so do your research. Breakfast was bread, cold cuts, yogurts and coffee. They had hard boiled eggs too. They said they are not allowed to cook. So be prepared for that. There are a few restaurants walking distance but they close from 3pm-7pm. That is Amalfi and Italy for you. The owners are polite except for the most senior guy. We saw him slap a guest in the hand for trying to make a sandwich and putting it in the toaster oven. I got yelled at for accidentally taking a banana out of the breakfast area. The other guys who I assume are his sons were polite and helpful but be careful with that older guy.
