La Bussola- A taste of Italy
by lizawithaz

best seafood risotto I have ever eaten, fantastic veal, wonderful pizzas, great service, lovely people .... just don't accept a day out on the boat without asking the price!

Advantages: Central, clean, spacious
Disadvantages: overpriced, unfriendly staff

...recently spent a week in Conca Park and I have to say that whilst we enjoyed our stay, this hotel is nothing special. It is clean and spacious located right in the heart of Sorrento and has a lovely patio for sipping cocktails (shame nobody uses it!). ... Read review

Excellent review by JAVER1967

I had an amazing experience! The hotel is a family hotel with a stunning view. The rooms are clean and nice. The pool area was perfect! The staff was friendly and helpful and really made my stay special. The food was excellent. The crowd is mixed but mostly couples from Europe and America. The only thing I do not recommend is a rental car from the airport..take the shuttle alternative! You do not want to drive on your vacation!

My husband and I stayed here for 10 days in May 2008 and we were not disappointed. The blurb about the hotel says every room has a balcony with spectacular views over the Amalfi coast line. This is not an exaggeration. The views were breathtaking! Staff are friendly and helpful, especially the catering staff. We were really pleased with the quality, choice and presentation of the meals. We would visit again.

Advantages: Clifftop setting, central Sorrento, fantastic service, value for money
Disadvantages: Lift down to beach broken,

We stayed at the Imperial Hotel Tramontano in June ('07) and had one of the most enjoyable holiday experiences to date. It is difficult not to be impressed on arrival by the grand lobby area and public rooms. Apart from the obvious cliff-top location with ... Read review

Advantages: Beautiful views, beautiful Hotel.
Disadvantages: 15 mins distance from center of Sorrento

This Hotel is great! I stayed here a couple of years ago. The Hotel is in Sant'Agnello which is about 15 mins walk from Sorrento (Piazza Tasso) and there is a local bus service if you don't feel like walking. The Hotel is very clean, and the staff are ... Read review

Advantages: Great Location - Great Public Rooms
Disadvantages: Shabby Room - not at all like the website

Visited this Hotel on a weeks B & B basis in late summer 2006. I have to say this was the most let down I have ever felt at any Hotel I have visited. We know Sorrento very well but had never stayed at The Tramontano previously. We chose it as it is terri ... Read review

The Amalfi coast is possibly one of the most beautiful and romantic places in the world. We got engaged there, in Ravello, so it obviously holds a very special place in my heart. There are several towns which are beautiful to stay in. We were based in Pos ... Read review

Firstly, Welcome to Ciao. A fair review although I would have liked to have read a little more about the subject. Sorry I cant rate you higher the reason is as I have said above. When I write a review I imagine that readers know absolutely nothing about the place you visited, the book you read, the film you saw or the album you heard and so I give a little more information about the background, where it is, what it is, who it is what it sounds like what it looks like everything I can think possible would be of interest. Also a personal input about how you felt there what things interested you what made an impression on you. DO drop me a message in my guest book if you do expand it more so I can come back and re-rate you. I am not intending to sound critical just trying to be helpful after all I was once a newbie myself.

Pity about the hotel. Hope it didn't spoil your experience of Sorrento too much. ~ A good first review. Welcome to Ciao. ~ Tony by Newboy3
