Hotel la Vue d'Or

This location is absolutely stunning! We were warmly welcomed by all of their staff and are a delicious meal with one of the most astounding views I have ever had. There is a full bar there. There are tables outside to eat as well. The landscaping is beautiful.

We’d a super time for our pearl wedding anniversary. Brilliant hotel. Beautiful location. Very friendly staff. Loved it and would go back. Little more choice at breakfast would be good. Tony, waiter is hilarious.

A big thank you to all the staff that make us feel very welcome. I big shout-out to the wonderful and very kind Federica who exceeded our expectations and helped us in a time of need. The view from our room and the dining room was breathtaking. Quiet and relaxing hotel environment with no noise. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone staying in the Sorrento area. The only minor issue we had was the bed being a little firmer than we would have liked, but don't let this put you off staying. We would book this hotel again when visiting Sorrento.

Positive points: this hotel has some of the best views as it is quite high up away from Sorrento, (at least a 35 minute walk into town), clean, very quiet and tranquil with friendly staff. It has a swimming pool, but as with most Italian pools it isn’t heated and in October I wasn’t keen to use it as it’s too cold, which for me was disappointing. It has a regular shuttle bus service, every hour, except around lunchtime, for getting back and forth into Sorrento. Negative points: our room was a little tired and in need of some TLC and upgrading. After a downpour of rain one morning, water flooded under the balcony doors into the room. Our room was sp****, dull and had nothing in the way of those little extras that we’ve come to except, like tea/coffee making facilities or even a kettle, and no tissues…had to use the toilet roll. Their room service charged and extra €5 and when I was I’ll one day, and had to stay in my room all day, I wanted some tea bought to me, this did not impress me at all. Worst of all was the food. I don’t think I’ve ever experienced such bad food ever in any holiday hotel in my whole life. At Breakfast we had very little choice, and the evening meals, if you were on the half board basis, were just dreadful. If you were eating a La Carte it seemed you got a better standard all round, including the plates it was served up on. We felt like second class citizens sitting next to those who were eating a La Carte! We even had to make our choices at breakfast time, when you really didn’t need that at 7 o’ clock in the morning. The best thing about the restaurant was the waiter, Tony, who was a complete clown, and he made everyone laugh 😂…maybe he was put there to take our minds off the food…lol Overall our experience was very average, beautiful views of Mount Vesuvius and the Bay of Naples, but I wouldn’t recommend it purely on the quality of the food alone.

Room was nice and hotel very clean. Problem was the location. While the property sits on a hilltop with an incredible view, you are pretty much trapped there. The have a free shuttle into town (actually a bus shared with other hotels) but it only runs hourly. The bus did not run on schedule and was early when we tried to use it so we missed it and had to wait another hour to return from town. I suppose u could overlook this issue if it were not for the restaurant on site. Food was the worst we had in Italy especially the breakfast. I would find something in Sorrento rather than being trapped in this location.

we stopped at the hotel due to an emergency.the manager helped us and we had dinner and stayed until late evening. the manager was exceptionnel and helped us in spite we had no reservation. the food for fantastic as wells the service. w highly recommend also the spectacular view and site of the hotel

Hotel was perfect. Away from the hustle and bustle of Sorrento, yet you can easily take the hotel shuttle into town. Beautiful views.

Hotel Vue D Or is situated some two miles outside of Sorrento and the only way to get in and out of the town is by a shared shuttle bus, which in fairness works very well. The hotel has great views, a good pool, (which unfortunately doesn,t catch the sun on an afternoon), is kept clean, has friendly staff, (mostly unless you complain) and is generally ok. Why you may ask have I then given it a rating of poor, in a word, the food, it is that bad I would think twice before feeding it to my Cavapoo. We were asked each morning to choose our evening meal, (which was most off putting), and the fun then was to remember what you had chosen and even more fun to actually identify what was on the plate. We worked out quite quickly that the reason for the pre-ordering was so that the food, (I use the term loosely), was prepared in the afternoon and heated up closer to being served. This arrangement allowed the kitchen staff to concentrate on their non half board guests, where presumably there was more profit to be made. Sufficient to say of the fare served up that the carrots and peas were tinned and the tomatoes not fresh, (in Italy for gods sake). I can only presume that the big tour companies had agreed fixed accommodation rates , which the hotel could not afford, and in an attempt to make the bookings viable had resorted to cutting back on the food costs. This drive for extra profits extended to any drinks ordered which were routinely short measured. In addition some of our fellow travellers were requested to pay their final bills in cash, I can only speculate what that was about, but it has never happened before to me when travelling Italy. In short a very pleasant holiday was spoiled by the actions of this establishment and i would urge you caution before choosing to stay there.
