After 24 years since my last visit, the Hotel Desiree is even more delightful than I remembered.  Corinna, Marco and Pasquale at the front desk were incredibly charming and helpful with a variety of questions regarding transportation, things to see and restaurant recommendations and Annamaria in the breakfast room (included in the room price) was an absolute treasure, patiently putting up with my rusty classroom Italian. Our spacious room with a "garden view" overlooked the valley below the cliff on which the hotel stands as well as a gorgeous slice of the bluest water you'll ever see.  With access to the private beach (down quite a few steps and an elevator ride down the cliff) and then views from both the room and the terrace, including several encounters with the resident cat, the hotel was a perfect spot for our 8-night stay and a welcome relief from the hustle and bustle of Rome. Rather than take the local bus up and down the hill into the center of Sorrento, we opted for the walk which includes breathtaking views of the water and the harbor, two tiny waterfalls, an olive grove and Mt. Etna in the distance during the 15 minutes it takes to hit the main stretch of the town. Because of a few complicated trips on the Circumvesuviana train line, the staff at Hotel Desiree suggested we opt for a mini-bus shuttle to get us back to Naples in time for our connection to Rome and then home to NYC and they were kind enough to make the arrangements on our behalf which proved to be a lifesaver.   

Should we ever be lucky enough to "torna Sorrento" (return to Sorrento) we'll definitely be staying at the Desiree!

For a two Star hotel this was 5 stars for my family and I. Great breakfast and they kept our room nice and tidy. Beautiful views and not too far of a walk to Sorrento City Center. Best of all were the ladies that served breakfast and cleaned our rooms. Very friendly, they loved our children and gave them gifts. Very nice experience through and through. They also provided an extra bed at a very fair price which included breakfast for the extra person! Thank you, cannot thank you enough for making us feel as part of your family.

Lovely Little Hotel

Great hotel, near city center, walkway to hotel (less risky than others hotels which are on road. Private beach with an elevator, near Bath of queen Jovana, supermarket and Bus. With parking!!!
Friendly stuff who taking care of everything.
Highly recommended.

Great hotel with private beach, parking and walkway directly to hotel

Helpful from moment we arrived until our last. Desk staff literally couldn’t be more obliging. Breakfast lady was a lovely child friendly character who made us very welcome. Made a special hot chocolate for my daughter. Cleaning was very high standard. Location we liked as it is out of town and so quiet for children and sleep. Walk to busy Sorrento 5-7 minutes. If you have children between 6 and 11, want a view, not a massive bill. This is definitely a hotel to consider. I doubt you will find a more caring group of staff.

Great hotel for a young family.

Hotel a little dated but more than made up for by the staff who were knowledgeable, extremely eager to help and friendly !!
Fantastic views of Vesuvius from the bedroom balcony, very central for all sights.

Sorrento !!

My husband brought me to beautiful sorrento on 18th may our 1st time in Italy . Hotel Desiree is in a peaceful location . On arrival we were greeted by Antonio who is so friendly helpful & welcoming ( & Tia the hotel cat ). We were shown to our room just down hall from reception . It was a spacious room with comfortable bed and brilliant shower . Breakfast is good at the hotel . We had a lovely balcony overlooking beautiful cliff side & the bay of Naples . Antonio , Pasquale & Corrina ( who are also lovely people)  couldn’t do enough for us . Here is a lift that brings you down 200ft to a private stoney beach with sun lounger area stunning views across bay of Naples & across sorrento coast . The hotel is 10-15 mins walk into town as in far side of marina grande . The walk into town is so beautiful & picturesque as well as walk back up to the hotel . Yes it is on a hill but a ‘gentle hill’. We will not hesitate to hotel Desiree. THANkYOU so much Antonio( & thankyou for the lemon cello!) Corrina & Pasquale...& Tia too!!. 

My 40th birthday present 🥂🎂🎉❤️

We stayed at The Desiree for 11 fabulous days while vacationing in Italy. The staff was incredibly helpful (Cassandra, Antonio, and Pasquale) arranged numerous day trips for us to Positano, Amalfi, Capri, Pompeii, Naples, and more. Our room with a balcony had an amazing view of Mount Vesuvius, and the beach below that could be reached by an elevator. The bathroom was recently remodeled and had a great shower. There was AC, but we never needed to use it. We really enjoyed the 10 minute walk into Sorrento, as the views of the city and the marinas are stunning.

Great Views, great service, great experience!

So helpful and kind in assisting with any problems - lovely family run hotel with stunning views and really good value.  A short walk but that suited us and access to beach for swimming.  We have been visiting for several years as a school trip and will return again 

Amazing family run hotel

This is, as others have said, a bit of a dated hotel, but wonderful breakfast and access to the beach.  Restaurant next door was fantastic with a beautiful patio and view of the sea.  Our room and balcony were quiet and comfortable.  Happy to have stayed there.  Very reasonably priced.

Amazing access to the Mediterranian on such a crowded seafront
