Hotel Belair

in Sorrento , Neapolitan Riviera T rating: 5

 
  • Seaview from every room
  • Live music
  • Elegant décor
“A chic retreat that combines old and new, the Belair is every inch the good-looking Italian.”
It’s the views that are the real talking point here. Perched on a rocky hillside, the Belair offers up widescreen vistas of Naples and Vesuvius. The location is spot on, too. It’s in a quiet residential area, just a ten-minute walk from the heart of Sorrento. When you want to hit the coast, simply follow the winding stone steps that lead down to the blue waters below.

The hotel itself is a traditional Mediterranean affair, featuring creamy yellow walls and exposed stone brickwork. Days here tend to be played out by the swimming pool. Framed by a lounger-dotted terrace, it’s the perfect place to soak up the views.

Head inside, meanwhile, and there’s a Regency feel to the hotel. In the lobby, a calm white palette paves the way for bold feature walls, gilt-framed mirrors and twinkling chandeliers.

As for the bedrooms, they’ve got a more casual feel. Think painted tiled floors, soft muslin curtains and large beds dressed in crisp cotton. Contemporary touches come in the form of air-conditioning, and satellite TVs. Plus sea views come as standard.

Last but not least, there’s the dining scene. Breakfast is a help-yourself affair, with a good mix of hot and cold dishes on offer. In the evenings, Italian classics line up alongside international favourites. When it’s warm outside, it’s worth having your meal out on the terrace – that way you’ll be able to enjoy the sea views while you eat.

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.

We were married in Sorrento last year and stayed at the Belair then. The whole experience was perfect and Sorrento so lovely that we booked to return for our Anniversary this year as soon as we returned home. We initially chose the Belair having read... more on this review
