Hotel Girasole

Hôtel avec commodité un peu vieillote et manque d'eau chaude quand plusieurs chambres prennent une douche en même temps. Le jardin et piscine très bien et les déjeuner excellent avec beaucoup de choix.

Girasole Lovely hotel with a great pool area. Nice food and very friendly people. Rooms were basic but clean and tidy.

We stayed at Hotel Girasole 21 Oct/28 Oct. We enjoyed our stay in a pleasant traditional family run Italian hotel. It was exceptionally clean throughout. It had a pleasant dining room over looking the garden seating area and a nice lounge area adjoining. The hotel pool was clean and had a good sun terrace around it with a covered eating area and a snack/bar adjoining. Our room was clean and maintained throughout our stay and towels changed each day. We had a garden room with a small balcony which had a lovely view of the coast and Naples, it was quiet despite the hotel being on the busy road. Breakfast was traditional Italian style and although it was the same each morning there was plenty of choice, the tinned fruit was a little disappointing but there was other fresh fruits available. The staff were friendly enough and offered assistance with the espresso coffee machine when my husband messed it up! The evening meal menu was left on your assigned table each morning for you to choose from. Usually four starter choices one of which was always a pasta meal which I have to say were delicious, the main course was a choice of a meat, fish or vegetarian dish and then a choice of two deserts which were traditional Italian or fruit salad. The wine/bar waiter was very pleasant and very knowledgeable about the wines on the menu and suggested good local wines to try. The hotel is situated within easy walking distance to Sorrento town 15 mins and made it easy to get in and out of town. The road is busy but you can walk down to the coast and then along a quieter road to the centre. There is a nice area at the rear of the town with a few cafe's seating, viewing areas over the coast. From Sorrento you can get ferries to the Amalfi coast, Capri, Ischia, Naples and the train goes to Pompeii and Herculaneum. We enjoyed our week here and it was value for money as we got a last minute deal but if it's a modern, sleek, flashy hotel you are looking for then it's not for you. Thank you Hotel Girasole we had a lovely week.
