La Tonnarella

One of the best hotels we have ever had the pleasure of staying. We had a spacious corner room with a huge balcony. The staff were amazing, pleasant, and thoughtful. The food in the restaurant was excellent. The beach below the hotel was a bonus that we really appreciate.

This is your sign to book a room!! The hotel was STUNNING, clean, relaxing, and everything we could have hoped for. Our room was spacious and comfortable and the breakfast servers were beyond friendly. We highly recommend eating dinner here too because the sunset on the balcony and the food were both incredible. It was best meal of our whole trip and we are still taking about it a year later. (It is a bit of a walk into town but with a view like that I can’t complain)

We loved this hotel. The front staff was very helpful. We absolutely loved our restaurant server (had him for both nights we were there). Lots of gluten free options to eat too. The views were absolutely gorgeous both from our room as well as from the restaurant. The private beach area is lovely. Would definitely return!

We stayed for 11 nights in Room 18, which had a large balcony and an exceptional view of Sorrento, its coastline, and Naples and Mount Vesuvius across the bay. The room was spacious with plenty of storage. There is a small beach for guests; we walked down the hill to see it, but it was too cool this time of year to use it. If you go in summer and expect to use the beach, bring swim shoes as it is rocky (as are most beaches in this area). The housekeeping staff was excellent and attended to our every need. Joseph was so helpful; he booked one excursion for us, and made several phone calls on our behalf when we were looking for a place that had fried pizza on the menu. He also investigated several different options for cooking classes. Most nights we went to the bar to get ice to take to our room; all the staff were so friendly and accommodating. One night the bar had already closed but Franchesco (at the desk) went into the bar/kitchen to get some. He was very friendly and helpful, as was the young woman who checked us in. She gave us directions and lots of tips on restaurants (but I can't remember her name). The walk from the hotel to the main Sorrento street (where all the action is), was about 1/2 mile. The road is busy, and the sidewalks narrow, but we loved the walk (especially after eating the phenomenal food at the local restaurants. On our last night it was raining so we ate at the hotel restaurant. The food was phenomenal; we wished we ate there earlier because we certainly would have gone back again. Our waiter recommended a bottle of wine to pair with our meal, and it was spot-on! We would certainly stay here again (and we hear they offer a discount for repeat visits). This is a great hotel with excellent staff!

My fiancé and I traveled with our immediate families to Sorrento and hosted our small, symbolic wedding ceremony on the terrace of the Deluxe Suite at Hotel La Tonnarella. Words cannot describe how impressed we were with this hotel - from the accommodations to the service and event management support. The staff of the hotel (especially Luigi and Mariela) made sure our small event was executed flawlessly, and the team often went above and beyond our expectations in the level of service delivered. The team worked with us well in advance to deliver a custom dinner menu to be served on the restaurant terrace as well as appetizers and cocktails for our guests on the suite balcony after the ceremony. The staff went above and beyond to make sure our suite’s terrace was transformed into a stunning wedding venue (coordinating flowers and decor), and even offered servers to help with our cocktail hour after the ceremony. Of course, the views from the Deluxe Suite are second to none, so we could not have asked for a better venue for our special day!||Our families truly enjoyed their stays at the hotel and appreciated the excellent service we received. Tonnarella will always be a special place for us and we’re sure to plan another trip in the future!

This hotel is absolutely beautiful and the staff is wonderful. We received white glove service. Daily breakfast buffet is convenient and delicious, their pastry selection is great. Location is perfect, a mere 15 minute walk from the city center. One of the front desk workers, Fabiano, was amazing. He helped make everything so seem-less and was so kind and patient. We hope to see him next time we come back!

We just left La Tonnarella today after 5 nights at the hotel. The service and the view were fantastic and we felt comfortable the entire trip. The hotel associates were very helpful with any requests needed. |A beautiful scenic walk into town along a busy street was challenging.

My wife and I recently stayed at La Tonnarella in Sorento. The customer service offered us was outstanding. Joseph, Fabiano, and Annalisa were the nicest people you could possibly meet. The front operations of the hotel ran perfectly I have never experienced better customer service then at this hotel. The location is beautiful and the room was exactly as described and pictured. The bed was extremely comfortable and the view from our balcony was awesome. The restaurant Radici del Sud was excellent, Raffaelle and the team of servers offered outstanding service and the food was delicious. The view from the outdoor seating area cannot be beat. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone going to Sorento. My wife and I will definitely stay here the next time we visit.

This review is specifically for Radici del Sud, the restaurant that is part of the hotel. Having traveled to Sorrento from the US, this restaurant offered beautiful views of Sorrento. The food for dinner was great. The service was good but while trying to be professional, it was more stuffy and unfriendly. My understanding was that the hotel would offer a shuttle back down to the town center but according to the server, that wasn't the case. That said, it was generally a good experience and the views were unforgettable!

The food was amazing. Everything was delicious. the staff went above and beyond. The ambience is beautiful. I highly recommend it.

I loved the breakfast in the morning, and the dinner was great as well. The staff are extremely kind and helpful. This hotel is worth booking for sure. For an even better experience, book a room with a view out into the bay of Naples. A quick and easy walk can lead you to downtown sorrento, with many choices of shops. Highly recommend!

This hotel was amazing! First, the rooms were wonderful. With access to a balcony overlooking the water, our stay offered us a great way to relax while in Sorrento. To add on, every other part of the room was amazing, comfterable, beautiful, and cleaned perfectly every day. The hotel also came with many extras including an enclosed beach dotted with sea glass (safe, of course), an elaborate complementary buffet (with great staff (shoutout to the waiter who brought us cappacino)), a beautiful outdoor patio, amazing dinner and lunch services, and much more fearures (they even impress a teenager!) Also, as a result of a short walk, you can find yourself in atmospheric downtown Sorrento! Book here now!!

Great hotel right on the water with amazing views. The staff goes above and beyond to make you happy. They order fresh pizza from us at midnight when we got here and they gave us bottled water. Be sure to book a room with a view it is worth it. Breakfast is very nice as well. Highly recommending this place in Sorrento if you don't want to brake the bank.

We really enjoyed our stay at La Tonnarella. The rooms are beautiful and mostly comfortable. The bed in our 2nd room (we had to move for an unknown reason) had a huge dip in one side. But the room (24) itself was stunningly beautiful. There was a huge balcony overlooking the Napoli Bay. The restaurant was very pleasant and breakfast was great. I especially want to give a 5 star review to Eva, our server. She went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. Eva gave suggestions on places to visit and things to do and see. I also noticed that she was kind and joyful with every customer that came into the restaurant. Our first room (23) initially smelled like a septic problem and had some huge flies but the next day all was well. The bed was very comfortable and the view was terrific . I would stay again.

Zero Stars for this hotel. Zero stars for the staff. First and most important of all you should know that the hotel staff is extremely rude!! But I'll get to that in a moment. The hotel itself is a little dated. We had to take 2 flights of stairs to get to our room which wouldn't have been that big of a deal except we had to carry our own bags up. (Never have I ever had to carry my own bags to my room) We had an escort who quickly picked up one of my carry on bags and left the 2 large bags for me to carry. (My wife carried her carry on bag as well) The bellhop walked us to the room, handed me the key and left. The room itself looked decent at a glance, but upon further inspection had mosquitoes (I counted 6 that I had to squash) which probably came in through the bathroom window that had been left open. I'll get to the bathroom in a little bit) The WiFi did not work in our room & it took a technician about 45 minutes to 'fix it'. Truth is it was never fixed. It worked for about an hour, then we were logged out & it never worked again. There was a small balcony which revealed a magnificent panoramic view of the sea. You could see from the Sorrento marina all the way to Capri. I'm talking Breathtaking view!! This is the 1 and only good thing about this place. I hopped onto the bed to relax before heading out & almost broke my back. The thin mattress is supported by a steel beam running down the middle with flat chain link springs on either side (see picture) To give you a better idea of what it's like to sleep on this thing, imagine trying to sleep on a hill. You can't help but roll off to either side of the bed. I went down to the reception desk to let them know that the bed was unacceptable & the response I received from Christine (the receptionist) was this... "if you don't like it, you can call your travel agent and have them book you a room somewhere else" NO JOKE! NO EXAGGERATION!! Verbatim this is what she said!!!! Talk about customer service! WOW!!! This is exactly what I did. I called my agent and arranged a different room at a different hotel. Unfortunately we were unable to be transferred right away & were forced to spend 1 miserable night here. Luckily our agent was able to secure a room at a nearby hotel (Hotel Belair) which was a much nicer experience (check my review to read about the difference) I understand that this hotel is trying to stay "authentic" not my word.. this is the word the travel agent had used to describe the hotel, but give me a break!! There is no shower! Only a tub with a hand heals shower head. Get ready... here comes the best part... The ceiling is so low over the shower, that you have no other choice but to shower while sitting on your knees!! (Or bent over, or sitting in the tub) At some point during the night I wanted to make some tea (since I was unable to sleep in the bed!) and I was disgusted at what I saw in the kettle that was provided in the room. (Please see the image I provided of the tea kettle) there was mold inside of it. Anyway, That was 24 hours of my life that I can never get back. It almost ruined my entire vacation. If you are thinking of booking this hotel I urge you to do some more research. I highly recommend finding different accommodations.

When I walked into my enormous hotel room (room 24) and saw the floor to ceiling sliding glass doors with the curtains blowing in the breeze and the panoramic view of the Mediterranean Sea, I thought I'd died and gone to heaven. Seeing the outdoor bed and the outdoor shower on the balcony made me absolutely speechless. Silence between he and I as we took in all of the amenities. We looked at each other with raised eyebrows. Yes, we were going to enjoy this space. It's certainly very Italian. Our floor was completely tiled in blue and yellow ceramic and the balcony made of terracotta. It felt very old world. It did feel "busy" with all of the patterns compared to what most American's probably are used to. While I wouldn't live with it in my home in America, I absolutely loved it and embraced it in Italy. It felt palatial and I loved waking up to that every day that I stayed. LOVED the bathroom. With a huge sliding glass door that also opened to the balcony, I could soak in the 6x4 ft tub as I overlooked the Napoli coastline. A tub that was made completely of glass on one side. Yes, this was a hotel room made for lovers. Despite having been to the Amalfi Coast three times now, I'm still dying to go back. And of course, I would book my stay again at La Tonnarella in room 24. I wasn't there even 20 minutes before I was sprawled out on the balcony in a bathing suit with a mischievous grin on my face.

The room was amazing our terrace on Naples Bay could easily have a large party. It was outfitted with a table for two, two lounges plus an umbrella. Amazing views of the water and landscape plus a marina. Walking to the city center was easy but we felt tucked away when we were not shopping or eating in town. We always had breakfast here always great variety and good coffee. Our last night we decided to have dinner here versus walking in town. Service and food are very very good. Back to the room very spacious as well as a spacious bathroom and soaking tub.

Very arrogant service and bad customers service. Food was fine but definitely overpriced . The server was complaining about my choice of wine just because was the cheapest one on the menu, not knowing I had the exact same wine the night before in Napoli for 7 euros. (There was 30 euros). Wine was good lol At the end of our meals we payed and the server asked for the tip. I am fully Italian and my husband family came to visit Italy for the first time. You can fool tourists but not Italians. Tip is not mandatory in Italy . If you enjoyed the experience and you want to be extra nice you leave some coins. My husband said ok to the tip and he wanted to give him 10% but he insisted on the 20%. That pissed me off. Better improve the service if you wanna get 20 % In US the care of the customer goes way beyond. and customer service it works way better than this. Also I work in restaurant in US and even we don't get payed for our service the 20% we are not allowed to ask to tip us. Otherwise it will be extortion. The customer decides. I will never suggest or come back to this place.

I must start by saying my experience at La Tonnarella was many years ago. 1998 to be exact! Lol. Sorry...it was so long ago I never thought to write a review but in reading over the few that are here...I figured why not? Some things will never change... like the absolutely breathtaking view. We visited for a week with the kids when they were teens. Dozens of vacations since and our week in Sorrento at La Tonnarella is still our favorite. We went off-season November. Only a few other guests there. The food was amazing. We still talk about it. Fresh seafood and pastas... and Breakfasts were ample without being heavy. We always grabbed a pastry or slice of pizza for lunch while out but enjoyed fantastic dinners at LT every single night. We talked about trying other places in town but ultimately did not. The food at La Tonnarella is so fresh and wonderful...why go anywhere else?!? I do not remember the number of the large family room we occupied but I do recall it being lovely with bright blue tiles and comfortable beds. I suppose because it was not high season, there were very few employees visible..very few guests as well...we had the place largely to ourselves. . The same fellow who checked us in carried our bags to our room and saw to our every need throughout our stay. He was also our waiter every meal! Just changed his hat and vest to suit the role! It was a magnificent stay and reading these reviews/seeing the photos makes me long for another week...or longer in Sorrento at La Tonnarella. As soon as COVID lightens up...in going... minus the kids who now have children of their own!

La Tonnarella is exactly as described and far more. It's an example of what a hotel should be. We stayed four nights in Oct., two in a suite and two in a superior room. The views from every window of each room are stunning. They overlook the Bay of Naples and you can see the cruise ships, Naples. Vesuvio, both harbors in Sorrento, the town and the cliffs. It's hard to stop looking out the windows or enjoying the terraces. Everything works fine in the rooms. The suite is over the top for two, two bedrooms, two baths, jacuzzi, sitting room and would work for a family. The superior room is perfect for two and has the same views and a balcony. They say every superior room has a view and balcony. Everything is clean, well maintained and works perfectly. The decoration is quite eclectic and old-school, very interesting things for the guest to examine. The restaurant is closed Oct. 1 except for the complimentary breakfast which is great. Their omelette is perfect, an example for all home cooks to emulate. The staff at the desk and in the restaurant is very friendly and helpful. There is a beautiful little beach. Take the elevator, they provide towels. Unfortunately when we were there our beach days were windy and cloudy/rainy but the water was still warm. Some other things. The walk into town is just an easy 6 -10 mins but the road is busy and the sidewalk narrow. Many many people do it so it's OK. Cabs into town are about 20 euros. There is a bus but we did not use it. Walking to/from the docks with luggage is possible but a long way up or downhill. Our superior room had a tub with a hand held spray, no shower.
