Hotel Jaccarino

The staff are super friendly and helpful. The view of the ocean and Mount vesuvius is superb. They run a shuttle bus up and down to the main part of sorrento which is very helpful. We would stay here again. We found the whole experience very enjoyable

I highly recommend the Hotel Jaccarino. Which is high up in the mountains in the small, peaceful and friendly village of Sant' Agata sui due Golfi. The hotel has wonderful views overlooking Sorrento and the Gulf of Naples with Mount Vesuvius in the distance. Which can be seen from the hotel terrace and some of the rooms. Although I was travelling alone and I am disabled with lots of aches and pains. I really enjoyed my stay at this lovely hotel and all of the staff were very friendly, kind and helpful. Especially, the manager Renato. Also, the food was very good and plentiful. I just booked a single room which had a small balcony and was on the side of the hotel overlooking the mountains and the back of some of the houses in the small village of Sant' Agata. The hotel also has a free shuttle bus into Sorrento.

A perfect 2 week stay from first to last. On the first day we arrived late at night to a warm welcome and a meal left for us in our room which was greatly appreciated by 2 weary travellers. Throughout our stay the evening meals were excellent Italian fare with plenty of choice and always delicious. These were served by friendly and efficient waiters. (special thanks to Marco). The breakfast buffets offered an amazing variety - something for every conceivable taste. Our room was cleaned very well by our charming chambermaid and fresh towels & bed linen changed regularly. In fact the hotel was kept spotless throughout by the cleaning team (always with a smile). Reception staff were very helpful & friendly with good response to requests and ready with useful tips and information. Renato (The Boss) is a constant presence and takes the happiness of his guests very seriously and his happy & hard working staff are a testament to this. I have been flabbergasted to see some of the negative comments in other reviews!! One thing that may not suit some visitors is the quiet setting (a plus for us) with little nightlife. However, the small town of St. Agata is less than 5 mins walk away and the Hotel runs a courtesy bus to Sorrento ( the local SITA bus also passes the door). The upside of being in the hills above Sorrento is the fantastic view all the way to Vesuvius. We were sad to leave but we will definitely return.
