Hotel Admiral
in
Sorrento
,
Neapolitan Riviera
- Peaceful harbourfront location
- Bright and spacious rooms
- Refurbished for summer 2013
Anchored into a rockface overlooking the sea, the Hotel Admiral serves up a slice of authentic Sorrento.
Right on the seafront, the Hotel Admiral couldn’t be in a better spot. Firstly, it offers up some jaw-dropping views – you can see right across the bay to Mount Vesuvius. It’s tucked in the quiet Marina Grande part of town, and you’re less than a 30-minute walk from Piazza Tasso, Sorrento’s main square.
Inside, everything’s been kept airy and light. Think whitewashed walls, soft muslin curtains and lightwood furniture. Most of the bedrooms come with their own sea-facing balconies, too.
Head outside, meanwhile, and you’ll find the swimming pool. It’s a rectangular affair set in a paved terrace that juts out over the sea, so the panoramic views from here are something else. There’s also a shaded snack bar by the water's edge..
There’s also a lobby bar, serving up made-to-order cocktails and more Kodak-worthy vistas - head here at sunset for the best views.

Your guide to Sorrento, Neapolitan Riviera
“With buzzing Vespas winding through narrow backstreets and red chillies hanging from shop doorways, Sorrento offers up an authentic slice of Italy.”
One of the first things you’ll notice about Sorrento is its location. Sitting on a cliff that drops sheer into the sea, the town overlooks the Bay of Naples and has a view of Mount Vesuvius to boot. The dramatic coastline gives way to sunbathing platforms and the occasional small pebbly beach where you can soak up the sun. Sorrento life revolves around Piazza Tasso, where tables and chairs spill out of coffee shops onto the cobbles. Here, take your seat to watch the street theatre that is Neapolitan life unfold. By day, nonnas sit crocheting while old men put the world to rights in a flurry of animated hand gestures. By night, the square comes to life with trendy twenty-somethings en route to the late night bars. Away from this lively meeting place, hop on a tour bus to nearby Pompeii or take a stroll down to Marina Piccola and set sail for chic Capri. Closer to home, saunter along the exclusive Corso Italia in search for that all-important pair of designer shoes. And don’t miss the old town where you’ll find a rabbit’s warren of alleyways laced with old-world antique shops and trattorias serving regional specialities. Talking of food, eating out in Sorrento is a delight. From pizzas cooked in wood-fire ovens to heaped platters of seafood linguine along the harbourfront, there’s plenty to tempt you out for an al fresco meal under the stars.
