Hotel Alpha

Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Man hat sich immer willkommen gefühlt. Abendessen im Hotel war sehr gut. Nähe zum Bahnhof.

The location was perfect--quiet, pretty neighbourhood only steps away from the bus to downtown Sorrento and just a couple of blocks to catch the train to Pompeii and Naples. The meals we had at the hotel were excellent. Plentiful and lots of variety. Coffee was excellent! Salvatore and his team are terrific!

Parking is an issue. The underground parking is expensive--$15 Euro per night. Parking on the street is much cheaper--a week for 15 Euro. The only problem is that we arrived at the hotel, very tired and hungry and then we had to deal with the parking issue, which took a lot of time, due to the fact that we had to find 15 Euro in coins--only 1 and 2 Euro coins were allowed. The hotel would only give us 5 Euro in coin, so we needed to find a place off site to give us 10 Euros. It was a lot of back and forth as the parking meter would not accept 50 Euro cent coins (which we learned), so back to the shop to change the coins...When we put the money in, we followed the directions but only got 2 days of parking-what? The problem was that you had to push a button for the weekly rate and there was no direction in the original directions to do that. Yikes! My advice to other travellers: bring 15 Euros in coin (only 1 and 2 Euro coins). Do not follow the original directions, but find the button that will give you a weekly rate. Maybe have the bell boy at the hotel help you, it will save you a lot of frustration. My advice to the hotel: give your guests the full 15 Euros and put it on their bill as a great service to your customer.
