Best Western Hotel la Solara

Beautiful experience manages of the restaurants give us some free cakes and water beautiful service room a very good

This Hotel is all about the Staff they are all lovely and make this Hotel stand out. Much has already been said about this Hotel so I won’t repeat what has already been said. I’ll just add some tips, expect a one hour plus transfer depending on your arrival and departure times ours was over two hours returning to the Airport it’s just the tight roads and traffic it can’t be helped if your squeamish don’t look at the Scooter riders there Crazy 🤣. There is a Free Shuttle every hour and return on the quarter hour until 11.15PM prompt, the lovely professional safe driver Mario can’t stop on the road long due to traffic so don’t be late. You can walk to Sorrento but there is little or no pavement but it’s a nice change lovely scenery, just be careful. Sorrento is lovely, great Ice-cream. The Port is in town for the Boat to Capri around €90 return for two but remember your return Boat may not pick up where it dropped you off so make sure to ask. Napoli get the Train it’s about a 10 minute walk from the shuttle bus drop off approximately €16 return for two around an hours ride some buskers onboard but adds to the fun, some dodgy characters in town so keep hold of your purse, on the same line the train stops right at Pompei around 30 minute ride and €9 return for two, don’t buy tickets from the touts make sure you go through to the kiosk allow at least 4 hours for Pompei it’s very busy. There are hillside walks behind the Hotel and just down and across the road is a nice Beach harbour with restaurants, it is down a steep slope though.

Just returned from a week at this fabulous hotel. We had a lovely room overlooking the pool and a partial sea view and it was immaculately clean and refreshed each day. All the hard working staff were friendly and helpful and answered any queries we had. The food in the restaurant was fantastic. Breakfast is a buffet service with lots of choices from fresh fruit and cereals to cold meets and cheeses. Dinner is a three course meal and you have a dedicated table for the evening meal all week. Sunday is a 4 course gala meal with music and candle light. The dining room overlooks the Bay of Naples with some lovely sunsets. There is a fairly large pool with plenty of sun beds around it or on the sun terrace again overlooking the Bay. The free shuttle bus on the hour into Sorrento is modern and returns at 15 minutes past with the last one back at 2315 but the local buses also stop outside the hotel and are about 2 euros from Sorrento. We are really looking forward to returning to this relaxed friendly hotel as there is so much to see in the area.

We had a fabulous stay at La Solara hotel in Sorrento, nothing is too much trouble for any of the staff. Would definitely go back.

Loved the hotel, 1st time to Italy, exceptional Staff and great food, spotlessly clean everywhere, everyone makes you so welcome, 100% will book this hotel again, we booked because of the trip advisor rating and it stands to its reputation, well done to all the staff.

We visited here for a landmark birthday. First time to this part of Italy. From the moment we arrived we knew this was going to be a very special holiday. The location is stunning set high up above Sorrento amidst forests, lemon and olive groves it just oozes charm and tranquility. Yes there is a busy winding road outside, but slightly downhill but it doesn’t impact. On arrival cases were taken to reception by Bruno and we were given Prosecco and snacks and shown to the lounge to relax. We knew it was a 4pm check in so this was no hardship. Our initial favourable impressions remained throughout our all too brief stay, 7 days. Our room on the third floor had a stunning view over looking Capri, the sound of birdsong and a nearby rooster only added to the charm. The hotel is immaculate in traditional style, not like all those glossy carbon copy ones which have no warmth and character or interest in anything but your wallet. La Solara treat you like a member of family, nothing is too much effort and you feel valued by all. EVERY member of staff is highly trained and excels at what they do . I won’t single any one out because that would be unfair as they are all excellent. Nothing is too much trouble for them, and I did ask some pretty inane questions. We booked a boat trip through the hotel. Well organised, well worth the money. The food is really of a high standard as is the service. I have been to so called five star hotels where it’s felt like school dinners and they want you in and out as quickly as possible. The very opposite happens here. You are allocated a table for dinner, so there is no stampede to bag the best tables, at breakfast you can choose where to sit. It’s waiter service, apart from salad bar. attention to detail matters to them. I particularly loved the breakfast. What a choice! Everything you could wish for and more. Coffee just perfect. The shuttle bus into Sorrento is comfortable, reliable and modern. Sometimes the trip only took 8 minutes. The buzz of this wonderful resort is close by but the tranquility of La Solara is there on your return. It was mixed weather but I still managed to use the pool which is very impressive as is the sunbed area. Plenty of them. No need to rush to put down towels, which are supplied daily. Not far from the hotel, more or less across from it, there is a path which takes you down to a charming cove with a harbour and restaurants. I felt a bit daunted about the trek back up but one of the restaurant owners organised a “taxi” fancy buggy! Straight to the hotel door. Ten Euros very well spent. Would we come back??? In a heartbeat . Easily the best hotel we have ever stayed at and with our advanced years there have been quite a few. La Solara thank you for giving us such a memorable experience. In the words of the magnificent Tina Turner “Simply the Best “ Ciao and see you next year .

We stayed for 11 nights at the La Solara hotel and despite the iffy weather (an unusual depression over all of Europe) we had the best time. We received a warm welcome (though be prepared for your room not being ready until 1600) and were shown to our room overlooking the sea. The hotel is spotlessly clean and the staff really make it a special place. There is a network of paths across the Sorrento peninsula which can be accessed from the back of the hotel - the lovely reception staff will give you the local maps. There was plenty of choice at dinner in the evening - the pastas are very good as is the meat and fish cookery, though the veg is a little overcooked for modern British tastes. The Gala dinner on a Sunday was a happy event and we will undoubtedly return to this gem of a hotel again. Thank you
