For a 3 star hotel the accomodation is reasonable although the hair dryer is antiquated and there are no tea/coffee making facilities in the rooms. The food could be a bit better - especially as there are huge quantities of cake and tinned fruit for breakfast but otherwise no complaints. The staff are friendly and helpful and although the head... More

Hotel needs updating. Food very average and not very warm with cold plates. Breakfast was a shambles. Hardly ever got our pot of tea before we had actually finished eating. It always seemed a free for all and not much selectiion. Lots of cakes and doughnuts etc??? One small orange juice dispenser to serve 100 diners. Chaotic. Pleasant enough staff... More

The hotel is adequate as long as you can put up with no choice at breakfast,only one type of cheese and meat sliced very thin,watery juice,runny cold eggs etc.. For all meals you are forced to share a table with strangers.The portions for supper are mean with very few vegetables.The best part were the chambermaids who kept the room spotless.... More

The problem with seaview is that they all overlook the main road causing a lot of noise and avoiding me to sleep. From 5 am the car and vespa's traffic increased and delivery van's... More

I found the Villa Maria to be charming, not like all the bigger impersonal hotels. Not quite so up to date but I found this appealing.The staff were fantastic, helpful and friendly. My room was spotlessly cleaned every day and the bed was very comfortable, which very important to me. Sorrento is a wonderful place , a good stepping stone... More

We booked a week in September with Riviera travel, and paid £150 extra for a side sea view room. This turned out to be a 4th floor room with a view of rooftops and television dishes, with a postage-size triangle of blue between buildings far off on the left. We immediately asked for a change but the hotel could not... More
