Hotel Metropole

Just got back from a fabulous 5 days at the Metropole, if only we could have stayed longer. From arrival to check out the experience was delightful, professional and courteous. All the staff from housekeeping to reception made us feel most valued. Our room on the second floor was spotless, with magnificent views over the bay to Naples and Versuvious. Although our room overlooked a busy road junction it did not worry us at all, having been to Sorrento many times , we have become used to the noise. The food at the hotel was exceptional, although we stayed b&b we ate dinner one night and found our meals most enjoyable. The boys that work the bar give fantastic service, bringing us drinks round the pool. We cannot wait to return here and are already planning our next holiday to Sorrento and of course The Metropole.

This is a very welcoming Hotel situated on the hill above Sorrento with breath taking views over the bay. Good value if your on a budget Nice rooms and a good Restaurant and Bar. What makes the hotel unique is the staff who are friendly and helpful. Nothing is a problem. So a big thank you to Salvatore, Natty, Giovanna, siroue and Luigi or making our stay a pleasant one. Many Thanks.

Just back from a weeks stay at the Hotel Metropole. It was excellent! Location is great, a 15/20 minute walk on the same road into Sorrento with stunning views on the way. The walk on the road into town is not as bad as we thought it would be. We stayed half board and thoroughly enjoyed all the meals. Buffet breakfast had a huge choice and the evening meal three choices for each course. It sometimes sounded an odd combination, however every meal tasted lovely. All the staff were so friendly, courteous and helpful from the staff on reception, those in the restaurant and the ones in the bar. Lots of outdoor seating, plenty of sun and shade. We booked two trips with the hotel before we arrived. One to Pompeii and Vesuvius with lunch and the second a coastal tour around the Amalfi towns of Positano, Amalfi and Ravello. Both were excellent. We also went across to Capri which was stunning. Booked a return trip on the ferry before we arrived. Recommend the chairlift at the top, great views and a great experience. Sorrento itself so much to see and some spectacular views. We also did the walk to Bagni Regina Giovanni about 25 mins from the hotel. Well worth the walk to the roman villa ruins and a hidden bathing spot. Uphill coming back so go early or late. Had a fabulous time in Sorrento and sightseeing on the Amalfi coast. A big thank you to the Metropole hotel.

Stayed a week at the Hotel Metropole and couldn't fault it! Spotlessly clean, our large room (no. 305) had an enormous bed and gorgeous rainfall shower. Full size bottles of good quality shower gel are provided and refilled as necessary so no need to bring any and the same with soap. Lots of soft white towels. The balcony overlooked the busy road but also the sea and the mighty Vesuvius. It was quite fun watching all the Vespas and Fiat 500's and when the doors were closed it was very quiet. All the staff were so friendly and helpful. We stayed on a B&B basis and breakfast was great - fresh fruit, juices, lovely croissants, ham, cheese, salami, cereals. Danish pastries etc. We did eat dinner one night which they offer to guests for 25 euros for 3 courses. It was very good. There's a big bar serving reasonably priced drinks. The bar could do with some comfy sofas as the chairs are quite formal but there are comfortable chairs by the reception area. The pool and areas around it are lovely with sunbeds and umbrellas, although there could be a couple more umbrellas poolside. The friendly waiters will bring drinks and food to you and there's a toilet by the pool so you don't have to go into the hotel. A 20 minute walk down the hill into beautiful Sorrento itself with all the shops, bars and restaurants. We loved the Hotel Metropole and wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

Lovely hotel great views of Vesuvius. Just outside Sorrento enough to be away from hustle and bustle, easy walk down and cheap bus back up if you don't wish to walk 1.50 euros with ticket. Room clean, lovely white towels and linen, view from balcony of garden with olive grove.. Air con not on yet but needs to be. Pool freezing but refreshing, needs leaves etc cleaning out. Plenty of sunbeds and seats. Reception helpful and welcoming. Resteraunt AMAZING, staff helpful and friendly cant do enough, food was fantastic 3 choices per course for evening meal, what a great chef they have. Bottles of wine very reasonable and you can save for the next evening. Breakfast well what a choice. It's a great 3/4 star hotel at 3/4 star prices. 2euro tourist tax pppn very reasonable. Couldn't wish for anymore and will return.

Stayed here for a week at the end of April 2024. It was such a lovely stay and the Hotel was great. We had a twin room, garden view on the 1st floor. I liked the decor of the room which was a traditional style. The rooms were cleaned every day and were spotless. The rest of the Hotel was the same. The staff were all lovely. Very professional and friendly and happy to help. We stayed on a half board basis and the food was very good. Each night was a 3 course menu with a choice of 3 options for each course. Regarding the walk to the centre of Sorrento and the road. It is the case that there is no distinct path for a small part of the walk. We didn’t find this to be an issue though. The cars know you’re there and give you plenty of room. The walk down is about 15 minutes. There are buses however. The only minor issue we had was that the noise from the adjoining rooms. It did carry through quite a bit. We did have quite noisy neighbours, so no fault of the Hotel. I’d highly recommend this Hotel.

Writing this a bit late- stayed mid April. My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time in Sorrento. Hotel Metropole is the perfect base for exploring Sorrento and the surrounding area. We went half board and Breakfast was your standard continental. Dinner was a set menu but there were plenty of options to pick from. The waiting staff were so kind and welcoming and gave suggestions on what to do in the area. Room was cleaned everyday which was nice and also had a safe and mini fridge. The fridge had drinks in it that you could pay for but we just bought some from the shop and put them in the fridge to keep them cool. Sorrento centre is about a 15-20 minute walk and the first 5 minutes there is no path but you get used to it and the drivers leave plenty of room. You can get the bus to the town but we walked as the view was picturesque. Overall, a fabulous stay and could not fault the staff at all. Would definitely stay again.

A lovely hotel with great food and the staff are so friendly and helpful. It is a little dated in some areas but then it’s a 3 star. Our room was lovely and looked across at the volcano and Naples. Pool is fine although this time of year a little chilly so if you like your open water swimming, then it’s spot on 😀. Had a great week staying here and would defo come back 👍 You can walk down to Sorrento centre…about 15/20min, although there are buses every 20 minutes which cost €2 per person. You can get a taxi but they can be quite expensive for such a short journey.

Wonderful staff and service, only three star but nothing was too much trouble. We felt valued and special. Lovely pool area and rooms. Slight walk into the centre some on a main room but otherwise no complaints. Would recommend and stay again. Angela and Pam
