This was an excellent hotel! We loved our room and the view. It was great to have a pool available for the afternoon when we needed to cool off from the walking. The front lobby staff were always available and very helpful. The breakfast options were amazing!

This property is just okay. The staff is excellent and the pool is nice, but everything else did not live up to my expectations. The rooms are very old and the linens seemed very old as well. There is some charm to this style of hotel, but the room never quite seemed fully clean to me. I noticed a few dead bugs in our room that never got cleaned the whole time we were there. There were a few days where the sheets were also not changed even though I requested that the room be cleaned. The rooms also only had one outlet plug available. As a traveler, it is so important to have a charged phone for safety. Thank goodness I brought a portable charger! This is a very minor detail, but still an inconvenience. Our stay at Hotel Girasole was just fine, but next time I would definitely opt for something a bit more updated. Definitely would be worth spending the extra money on.

The staff was incredibly nice and helpful. Overall the hotel was good. What I had issue with was the room walls and Front door are very thin and you could hear the neighbors, including the people above you. The bed mattress was only just good and probably needs to be replaced soon. The breakfast was good also.

Quaint and friendly
The front desk was wonderful with recommendations. Always friendly and attentive. Close to railway station. We walked but had dragged a big suit case since no taxi was available at the time. Shower was small and so was the soap they give you. I used it up in one shower A little too far for me from the marina grande. Will stay closer next time.

Wonderful stay in Sorrento
We had an incredible stay at Hotel Girasole. The food, pool and room were lovely and it's in a great location to explore the Amalfi coast. I especially wanted to call out the receptionists for being so welcoming and friendly and going above and beyond to make sure we made the most of our stay; recommending transport, restaurants and places to visit.

Beautiful place with wonderful staff 😄
We were visiting Italy from Miami Fl . Our stay here was fabulous 😊 the front desk people were super friendly and extremely helpful! The property is beautiful with lemon and lime trees everywhere! Very large pool with great snacks and drinks . Free parking was a huge plus as parking can be very difficult. The property is located at the entrance of town so you are away from the chaos but only a 15 min walk to the center. I work for a hotel so my standards are pretty high and we would definitely return !

We were lucky to spend 4 nights at the Hotel Girasole. A fabulous little hotel with lots of character. Situated on a busy road but when lying at the pool it couldn’t have been more relaxing. The staff were absolutely wonderful from first email contact to stepping through the door and couldn’t have done enough to help you. We had a fabulous family room on the 2nd floor which was split into two separate sleeping areas. Great view of the Bay of Naples from our balcony. Lunches by the pool were great, you must try ‘David’s Specials’. We enjoyed the Wednesday Pizza Party very much, with wonderful food and entertainment. The breakfasts and evening meals were fabulous as well and catered for Gluten Free. It was easy to walk to Sorrento about 15 - 20 mins with a slightly longer route avoiding the main road. Thank you so much for such a wonderful stay.

Home away from home!
Everyone at Hotel Girasole was warm, especially one of the owners –Rita…such a beautiful & caring person. I twisted my ankle in Pompeii…Nino (one of the staff) & Rita were super nice by getting me icepack and medicine before my husband was able to go to the pharmacy. The room was very clean, spacious and comfortable with a patio that looked over the beautiful garden, pool and mountains. The service was excellent…the owners & staff showed great pride for Girasole…HOSPITALITY at its BEST. This hotel is lovely for many reasons…the garden for everyone’s enjoyment was varied with many beautiful & interesting selections of plants. In the hallway of every floor, there were different themes of paintings/prints…like an art gallery. A nice size pool equipped with chairs and a bar to enjoy after a day’s excursion…that was well worth having…to cool down in the Summer…what a great amenity. Another great amenity at Girasole is the delicious FOOD. How awesome it is to know that one of the owners bake the pastries for breakfast. AND we thoroughly enjoyed the dinners offered. Every night is a different menu of excellent cuisine that is delicious & exquisite. Compliments to a great chef. The location is easily accessible to any point of interest. You just have to ask Rita and she will point you in the right direction. I totally recommend this hotel. In the future, we could easily use it as a hub & stay 2-3 weeks in beautiful & friendly Sorrento.

Helpful staff, clean accommodation nice swimming pool. Our family size room had a large sitting area outside. The only downside was that the top bunk bed was really too hot to sleep in as it was directly below the warm air return. Other areas of the room were cooler. This was also an exceptionally hot time of the year so perhaps would not typically be a problem.

The hotel was 15-20 mins away from the Piazza so definitely walkable. I loved having breakfast out in the garden and the fact that breakfast to go was made for me and my partner before we left to the airport early in the morning (6AM). That was super thoughtful and lovely!

A Recommended Stay in Sorrento
Hotel Girasole is nicely placed a 15 minute walk from the centre of Sorrento and a five minute walk the other way to Sant Agnello. Although only small, Agnello has some nice bars and restaurants and is very handy if you don't want the walk the other way. Placed on the main road from Sorrento to Naples, some may find it a bit noisy but, as most of the hotels are situated along it, I'd take it as part of the Italian experience unless your budget can stretch to something a bit further back. The hotel staff were welcoming, friendly and always keen to offer travel advice. The continental breakfast is more than adequate although cooked food is available for a few euros extra. The grounds are excellent and the private pool really relaxing and quiet, although the rooms are a bit brown and drab. The showers are a little claustrophobic too and a larger person may struggle in them. The Pizza tasting night is worth staying in for though. I'd highly recommend this hotel but some might prefer a room at the back if you're not good with noise.

Very pleasant staff, nice clean rooms, lovely pool area. Breakfast a little disappointing. We knew it was going to be continental but it was mainly pastries with 1 type of cheese, plastic ham and salami. Would have been nice to have a choice of cheese and hams bearing in mind Italy is famous for them. Also no tomatoes which was a shame as they are beautiful. A bowl of tinned fruit. However would it stop me going back, no, we had a lovely time

LOCATION: east of Sorrento center about 18-20min walk away from Piazzo Tasso. We walked several times into town for dinner. Busy street with traffic but manageable. PROS: 1) outdoor pool: large, well-maintained, in middle of Lemon trees 2) Parkinf is included: this was a major factor for us since we had a rental car and drove to Pompeii/Ercolano and Amalfi Coast (I don’t recommend driving into Sorrento downtown due to limited parking)) 3) BREAKFAST: Continental breakfast with Saluki, cheese, yogurt, and pastries included. 4) ROOMS: decent size with A/C. There is a main building - where breakfast is served - and a smaller annex away from road and next to pool. We stayed in annex (quieter). CONS: 1) location is further from city center than I would have liked but the parking and pool were more important. 2) Sorrento has mosquitoes in summertime (not unique to hotel) so bring bug juice

The staff were friendly. The location wasn't central (15minutes walk to main train station), however it transpired that the best restaurant and our favourite bar,that we discovered were only 5 minutes down the road. The room had adequate storage space, but we didn't find the bed particularly comfortable.

Good location
This hotel was in a great location. Walkable from local train station one way and town center the other way. They made great recommendation on a scooter rental, and allowed us to park it behind the gate. The room was spacious and clean. The plumbing worked, but was noisy. We unfortunately booked 1/2 board room. While the breakfasts were amazing, with lots of choices the dinners were just average at best. I would recommeded booking breakfast, but suggest you try some of the local restaurants which were amazing. I also thought it was a bit strange that we were required to rent pool towels for 3 euro pp and lounge chairs also 3 euro pp. However, pool area was pleasant and pool was refreshing.
