Polvica Holidays

Exceptional view from the property No taxis or public transportation available close to property. You either rent a car or arrange taxi by yourself as Sorrento is few miles away from this property. Staff will give you a taxi driver whatsapp number to arrange transportation.

The hotel is not in Sorrento, but they operate a shuttle bus hourly. If you’re looking for town centre location, this is not for you. The hotel is set high above Sorrento and from the public spaces, commands sensational views across the Gulf of Naples, and an amazing view over Sorrento itself and Vesuvius! It’s a hard view to beat! The hotel & rooms are spotlessly clean, the bar and terrace all have amazing views and the swimming pool is lovely, although was almost bath temperature whilst we were there so ideal. We had partial sea view rooms with balcony on 1st floor (224 and 222 which our daughters had). The rooms really need updating as look very dated and the balcony and partial sea view were just not worth the extra money. Also no coffee/tea making facilities which is always a negative for me. However, beds were very comfortable and the rooms have AC. Restaurant was very good, although we ate quite simply (ie pasta!) and the bar was great - hotel prices obviously. Breakfast was excellent. Same dining room as dinner and a lovely space to eat in. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and found the staff to be plentiful and universally excellent, in particular the receptionists. Note on travel: it’s worth taking a taxi or using the hotel airport transfer service. Public transport looks good on paper, but the trains are rammed. We did a trip to Pompeii by train and it was so crowded we got an uber back to the hotel. Costly but money well spent!

Giuseppe at Breakfast Service exceeds customer Expectations. He has been a great host over the years!

Fantastic stay!.. will recommend!

The staff were very welcoming and helpful. The rooftop terrace Sky Bar was a lovely place for an evening drink. The hotel is well located to reach Vesuvius National Park, Pompeii and Herculanium using the public bus or the train. We enjoyed our stay at the Hotel Marad.
