The 7 Best Boutique Hotels in Sorrento

Relais Correale Rooms and Garden

Sorrento, the "jewel of the Amalfi Coast", is often remembered as the favourite hideout of writers like Byron and Goethe, and its romance continues to this day. And with this popularity, there is inevitably a wide range of accommodation. But for the smart set, it has to be a boutique hotel! And we've discovered that you can also book a chic stay in Sorrento without endangering your bank balance. Our pick of the best boutique hotels in Sorrento range from elegant, classical properties with gorgeous gardens to chic renovated townhouses that offer amazing value for money. Check out our collection and start planning your trip...

For Value chic

Palazzo Marziale

  • A glorious pink-stone townhouse in the heart of Sorrento, the Palazzo Marziale is a charming blend of classic Italian elegance with colourful splashes of chic sensibility. The lobby is a faded, eccentric affair, littered with antiques and an array of dramatic potted plants, while the light-filled rooms are simple yet chic, and the restaurant exudes classical elegance. Superb value.
  • A renovated farmhouse set in a garden of olive, orange and lemon trees, Relais Correale Rooms and Gardens is a great place for young couples seeking a unique experience. The chic and airy rooms open out onto the garden, and if you book the Junior Suite, you'll get a hot tub bath too! You can sunbathe on the wide, open terrace, eat your croissant in the shade of the lush arbour, and hire some bikes and journey to the seaside - only 11 minutes away on foot!

For old world charm

Villa Manning Relais

  • A small and intimate hotel, Villa Manning Relais belongs in a different time. Originally a 19th century villa, it's adorned with marble floors, antique furniture and graceful, refined rooms in shades of whites and blues. In the shade of the leafy garden is the swimming pool, again, an intimate affair. The place is perfect for couples seeking a spot of good old fashioned charm.

For a Spa Break

Laqua terrace pool

  • Laqua is a specialist of seaside spa breaks, undoubtedly one of the finest in the region. Each of the six, minimalist suites opens out onto a wood-panelled terrace from which you can bathe in the warm bubbles of your own private plunge pool. From there you'll be able to see the sea stretching out before you, along with the sun rising and falling. A mesmerising and unqiue experience, the wellness hotel boasts a glorious spa.

For a romantic stay

Maison la Minervetta

  • Maison la Minervetta is perfect for couples looking for a getaway. A chic clifftop boutique hotel perched above the Bay of Napoli, the rooms are awash with scarlets, ocean-blues and cloud-whites, floors chequered with tiles and windows from floor-to-ceiling. Stunning views can also be glimpsed from the swimming pool. It's breathless romance at its finest.

For families

Anna Belle Elegant Resort

  • Offering rooms the colour of the sea and sky, Anna Belle Elegant Resort is a classical take on the boutique hotel. There's a large garden centred around a swimming pool with sea views, and the spacious suites are plush and refined, making it a great stay for families.

All-out luxury

Bellevue Syrene

  • Bellevue Syrene was once a haven for wayward bohemian artists. It's unsurprising, really. The clifftop setting is deeply romantic, and the light-filled, whitewashed rooms adorned with antiques, modern art and splashes of colour, make it so simple yet beautiful. The pool and terrace afford gorgeous views of the Bay of Naples, and some of the suites boast their own hot tub. Plus, there's the gourmet restaurant, beauty parlour, wine cellar, and the hotel's very own private beach. Astounding.
