The Grand Hotel Capodimonte is a traditional hotel that sits amongst terraced gardens on a hillside above Sorrento, enjoying superb views across the town to the Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius. Sorrento's bustling centre is just a ten-minute walk away yet the pretty, shaded terraces that surround the hotel's cascading swimming pool provide the perfect place to enjoy a relaxing day. A poolside restaurant is on hand during the summer months, serving light cuisine for lunch. Dinner can be enjoyed on the terrace of Ristorante Le Querce, which offers panoramic views of the beautiful coast. Comfortable guest rooms have been finished in a traditional style, with local Vietri tiles used for the flooring, and the hotel's tranquil atmosphere makes it an ideal base for a relaxed holiday.
Hotel child prices apply to ages 2-12 years.

About the location
From its prime clifftop position, Sorrento has wide-angle views across the Bay of Naples to Mount Vesuvius. Palms and citrus groves cluster around grand villas and elegant hotels, and along the spaghetti-thin lanes of the old town you’ll find tiny trattorias and a generous helping of shops (bottles of limoncello, brightly painted ceramics and bespoke sandals are all must-buys). The main square, Piazza Tasso, is the place to head for a morning espresso, while the waterfront Marina Grande is the ideal spot for a dinner of freshly netted seafood. Sorrento’s location also makes it the perfect springboard for exploring more of the Neapolitan Riviera. Amalfi Coast towns like Positano and Ravello are in easy reach, as are the ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum. Hop on a boat, meanwhile, and you can skim over to the islands of Capri and Ischia.

From our hotel room we look across the bay of Naples at volcano, nestled in the bay is the little town of Sorrento at night when the lights are on it shines like a jewel in the night, during the day the little narrow streets are packed with shops and people, everywhere you go there are cafes and bars you can sit outside and watch the world go by, the shops have so may different things so much to see, a little road train takes you down the harbor and back while Caruso plays in your ear, great place lovely friendly people so much to see, so much to do, and Hotel is a dream, beautiful inside well kept very warm staff, it s place to rest and re-charge the batteries.

My husband and 2 daughters (ages 17 and 21) stayed here in July for 1 week following a few days in Rome. We were in rooms 608 and 612. Fantastic views from our balcony really enjoyed our coffee every morning sitting there before breakfast ( we brought our own kettle, disappointed that there wasn???t one in the room) . Yes I was surprised that there was a road a long way below us but it didn???t bother us at all. Pools were just fabulous and never a problem getting a sun bed.We had lovely lunches at the pool bar. Breakfast was amazing no shortage of anything. Dinner was also very good and it was a nice change to wear casual smart clothes. A special thank you to the 2 Carmines and Fabiano who made all our meals even more special.The minute we stepped into the lift we were met with such friendly people, porters, reception staff, cleaners, waiters, bar staff and pool staff.
We absolutely loved our stay and are planning to come back to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary in 2 years but this time without our daughters, sorry girls!!

Splurged for our 25th anniversary and booked a sea view room -with absolutely no regrets! Decadence and professional service throughout our stay from the moment we arrived. Our room was spacious with a balcony overlooking the bay and pool area. The bathroom was large as well. Location is ideal, with only a short walk into Sorrento. Appreciation for the bottle of sparkling wine to commemorate our anniversary! There were only a couple of issues during our stay that would be notable for potential guests: first, while the view for breakfast was spectacular, every morning of our stay we had to ask multiple times for cappuccino, often needing to flag down multiple staff members and wait over 15 minutes - one morning we were finished eating before our drinks arrived. We weren???t the only guests who experienced this. The last morning we waited asked twice then eventually gave up and left. The wait for omelettes were quite long as well. The other disappointment during our stay was regarding the piano bar: I specifically asked the front desk staff how late the pianist would be playing on our last night as we had yet to enjoy that aspect of the hotel. We returned from dinner to find no one playing at the piano; very disappointing, as we would have chosen to stay in Sorrento had we known. While the days were warm enough to sit poolside during our stay, the water was freezing; it???s unfortunate the pool isn???t heated.
Having said that, we would still recommend this hotel.
