  • Rooftop terrace
It’s the attentive service, elegant décor and central location that make this place a favourite with both Thomson customers and TripAdvisor reviewers.
Built around a 7th-century tower, the cosy Hotel Michelangelo is more than a little impressive. It’s an unusual peach-and-cream-coloured building set in a courtyard close to Sorrento town centre. In terms of walking times, it’ll take you about five minutes to get into the heart of the resort, while the bathing platforms are about ten minutes on foot.

Step inside, and you’ll notice the hotel has quite a Regency feel – especially in the bedrooms. They’re painted in calm cream tones and come with tiled floors, windows framed by elaborate drapes, and simply-dressed beds topped with wall-mounted headboards. Mod-cons include satellite TVs, minibars and hairdryers.

Elsewhere, there’s the restaurant. With its corniced ceilings, archways and well-dressed tables, it’s an elegant space to dine. The breakfasts are a continental help-yourself set-up. Evening meals, meanwhile, are waiter service, with up to four starter and main courses, and three desserts on offer.

Lastly, there’s the outside area. A small swimming pool sits beside a little terrace with deckchairs, parasols and a snack bar with clusters of tables and chairs. There’s also a rooftop terrace with views across the town and bay.

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.
