What guests think
Across recent reviews, Hotel Caravel stands out for a pleasant pool and rooftop, and a convenient yet quieter location supported by a free shuttle that makes reaching central Sorrento easier.
Breakfast is widely enjoyed, while opinions of dinner range from excellent rotating menus to advice to dine elsewhere, and there is regular evening entertainment in the bar. Rooms are clean but dated, with recurring remarks about hard beds and weak sound insulation; some are spacious with strong air conditioning, and not all have balconies. Service is generally friendly and helpful across departments, though a few guests reported unfriendly reception encounters and occasional maintenance or policy frustrations such as pool towel rules or faulty hairdryers. Expect a comfortable, traditional base with modern conveniences and a handy shuttle rather than cutting edge style.

The hotel was very nice, but there were some issues. There was some exceptional staff members that went above and beyond; Angelo in the dining room and Carmen and Joseph at reception. Some of the other staff members at the reception were very hard to deal with. The hair dryer in the room kept shorting out and the air conditioning didn't work so well. The pool was very nice as well as the lounge areas.

Lovely hotel. Spotlessly clean everywhere. Very friendly and helpful staff who can’t do enough to help. A 25 minute walk into Sorrento which is a long way in the heat but the hotel provides a frequent free aircon shuttle bus there and back. Also lots of lovely bars and restaurants near to the hotel so you don’t have to go into Sorrento centre if you don’t want to. We ate in the hotel each night. Menu different every day and lots of variety and always something we enjoyed. Pool was clean and never too busy. Plenty of sun loungers. Hotel provided towels for the pool. Rooms spacious and fantastic aircon. Great views of Vesuvius and sunset from the roof top terrace. Would love to stay here again.

Our overall stay at hotel Caravel was great - - disappointing factor was that we had a room with no balcony. From our observations of the hotel it looked like we got 1 of maybe 3 rooms in the entire building that didn’t have a balcony which was unfortunate when we were there for 5 nights. We also discovered on our 4th night that there is a 2-level rooftop solarium which I think the hotel should advertise better as the views from the top are fantastic over looking the Bay of Naples and Vesuvius. The hotel was very clean with very little noise. The pool area was never too crowded which was good for a relaxing day. Sorrento town is a 15/20min walk but the hotel offers a complimentary shuttle bus to/from Sorrento throughout the day which may be booked in advance. This was a nice surprise as we didn’t realise this was offered prior to arriving. The Sant’Agnello train station is approx 10min walk away also which is good if doing a day trip to Pompeii (30/35mins by train and costs €3/4 one way) Overall a good stay here and would recommend but feel the hotel should promote more of their great offerings online

Older hotel about 20 min walk to city center. Staff very friendly and helpful, daily breakfast buffet was very good, pool very nice, rooms spacious and clean, bathroom and shower were good, hot water more than enough, good Wi-Fi access. Shuttle option was very nice except didn’t run in the morning to get to town for tours. Other than that we were very happy with our stay!

We were disappointed. Bath had one light which dimly lit. What 4 star location has plastic glasses in the bathroom. Extra charges for clean pool towels seemed excessive. Staff was friendly. Best part was the nightly entertainment. Violin and piano player was absolutely excellent!!! Location was convenient and their shuttle to Santorini an appreciated service.

Prisvärt, du får ett bra hotell med shuttlebus och pool. Gymmet är obefintligt, är en cykel som står bredvid ett biljardbord. Du får 1 handduk till poolen för hela din vistelse. Hade önskat lite mer av ett 4-stjärnigt hotell, ex småsaker som vattenflaska ingår på rummet.

Not sure when I will be back to Sorrento but whenever that is I will be staying at Hotel Caravel. The service by all the staff is outstanding and the pool is so clean and very refreshing. The staff were so helpful with suggestions for tours and sightseeing. The breakfast and the service at breakfast was great as well. The shuttle to town was so convenient. And even on the day we were leaving we could store our bags, use the pool and even use the courtesy shower facilities after. Overall 5 out of 5

This hotel is a little dated but spotlessly clean with staff that are friendly and very helpful to your every need. Pool was great and the location was superb....walkable to Sorrento but they have a free transfer bus which is handy. No complaints about the food though we only had breakfast every day and it was decent. Not all rooms have balconies so it's best to make sure you have one if thats your thing. All in all i would rate this hotel as a 9 out of 10....suited us.....good value for money.....

Regular visitor here for many years and always enjoy our stay there and will return. Great staff, friendly and we like the cleanliness. The food is very good, as is the location and everything just seems to work for us. Only issue this time was the noisy young couple in the room next door for a couple of nights playing music after 11pm, but that is not at all the hotel’s fault. The hotel staff were very sympathetic that we had disturbed sleep and offered us another room which was very helpful.

Had a great experience staying at this Hotel. We picked it because it was close to the local train station and away from the busy downtown. Hotel staff were excellent, very friendly and accommodating. The free shuttle into Town was an excellent feature. Breakfast was really nice. The Hotel Restaurant manager always went above and beyond to make people happy. If you bring a baby be prepared to have him show him or her off to the rest of the guests. Cost was very reasonable for rooms and and restaurant. Nightly entertainment in the bar. Overall an exceptional place to stay away from all the downtown crowds and noise. The views were exceptional from the balcony and upper deck!

In die Jahre gekommenes Hotel. Das Frühstück war mittelmäßig. In der Dusche lief das Wasser kaum ab. Der Föhn funktionierte nur manchmal. Auf dem Dach ist eine Klimaanlage, die man bei offenen Fenster in den Zimmern der oberen Etagen als störendes lautes Grundrauschen hört. Die Lüftung in den Zimmern ist auch sehr laut. Durch die geschlossenen Fenster zieht der Wind. Das Personal ist dafür sehr nett. Die Standardzimmer sind sehr klein! Die Betten sind superhart. Wir waren nach zwei Tagen wie gerädert…

Hotel was great. Its not brand new, but its very clean and the staff was excellent. Location is about a 20 min walk from downtown sorrento but they have a free shuttle that runs close to there every 30 mins. Wonderful places to eat near by. The only issue we had is we thought the beds were very hard, but thats not something to really complain about.

This was a nice surprise as we didn’t realise this was offered prior to arriving. The Sant’Agnello train station is approx 10min walk away also which is good if doing a day trip to Pompeii (30/35mins by train and costs €3/4 one way) Overall a good stay here and would recommend but feel the hotel should promote more of their great offerings online

Really wanted to give this 3.5 stars but the system won’t let me. Good points: well isolated from traffic noise. Aircon on all the time. Pool and loungers well located and sufficient. Breakfast. Transportation service into Sorrento. Not so good: internal noise insulation poor, i.e. noise from adjacent rooms (particularly toilet flushing). Don’t bother having dinner there as other local restaurants are much better and cheaper.

Basic property about 20mins walk into Sorrento. Hotel room was dated. Mattress was sloping to one side and the acoustics in the room was awful. We could hear people talking and walking around in the rooms above and next door. You could also hear them using the toilet as if it was in your own room.

The hotel was very nice, but there were some issues. There was some exceptional staff members that went above and beyond; Angelo in the dining room and Carmen and Joseph at reception. Some of the other staff members at the reception were very hard to deal with. The hair dryer in the room kept shorting out and the air conditioning didn't work so well. The pool was very nice as well as the lounge areas.

The staff was great, especially during the free breakfast which was very good. 1 day they had eggs to order, wish it was every day. Lots of choices, even gluten free pastries. Room was good. The free shuttle to Sorrento was the best. It's a 7 minute drive.Try to book at least 30 minutes in advance or you may have to wait for the second run. Though that's not a long wait. My only minor complaint would be they were unable to provide clear information on what the excursions the hotel provides (I think there is someone there on Saturdays who books as well, but we weren't there). We booked an Amalfi/Positano big boat group tour. We wanted the small tour but they were already booked (do this in advance if you want). The large group was much cheaper. We asked when it returns, we were told 5. We got back a little after 7 and were super exhausted. It was very hot. Amalfi and Positano are similar. After doing 3 hours at Amalfi, 2 1/2 at Positano was a lot in the heat. However, it was a really good value. My last night I asked to book a taxi to the airport and was told it was too late. Eventually they found someone. We had to pay 150 cash or 200 card. 150 is close to what it should be, but I prefer to pay card. That being said, front desk are all super friendly and try to help. Last complaint is they keep your passports at the front desk in plain view of everyone. I saw the desk unoccupied a few times. That's just a nightmare waiting to happen. That being said I would definitely return.

Lovely hotel. Spotlessly clean everywhere. Very friendly and helpful staff who can’t do enough to help. A 25 minute walk into Sorrento which is a long way in the heat but the hotel provides a frequent free aircon shuttle bus there and back. Also lots of lovely bars and restaurants near to the hotel so you don’t have to go into Sorrento centre if you don’t want to. We ate in the hotel each night. Menu different every day and lots of variety and always something we enjoyed. Pool was clean and never too busy. Plenty of sun loungers. Hotel provided towels for the pool. Rooms spacious and fantastic aircon. Great views of Vesuvius and sunset from the roof top terrace. Would love to stay here again.

Not sure when I will be back to Sorrento but whenever that is I will be staying at Hotel Caravel. The service by all the staff is outstanding and the pool is so clean and very refreshing. The staff were so helpful with suggestions for tours and sightseeing. The breakfast and the service at breakfast was great as well. The shuttle to town was so convenient. And even on the day we were leaving we could store our bags, use the pool and even use the courtesy shower facilities after. Overall 5 out of 5

Hotel was great. Its not brand new, but its very clean and the staff was excellent. Location is about a 20 min walk from downtown sorrento but they have a free shuttle that runs close to there every 30 mins. Wonderful places to eat near by. The only issue we had is we thought the beds were very hard, but thats not something to really complain about.

Our overall stay at hotel Caravel was great - - disappointing factor was that we had a room with no balcony. From our observations of the hotel it looked like we got 1 of maybe 3 rooms in the entire building that didn’t have a balcony which was unfortunate when we were there for 5 nights. We also discovered on our 4th night that there is a 2-level rooftop solarium which I think the hotel should advertise better as the views from the top are fantastic over looking the Bay of Naples and Vesuvius. The hotel was very clean with very little noise. The pool area was never too crowded which was good for a relaxing day. Sorrento town is a 15/20min walk but the hotel offers a complimentary shuttle bus to/from Sorrento throughout the day which may be booked in advance. This was a nice surprise as we didn’t realise this was offered prior to arriving. The Sant’Agnello train station is approx 10min walk away also which is good if doing a day trip to Pompeii (30/35mins by train and costs €3/4 one way) Overall a good stay here and would recommend but feel the hotel should promote more of their great offerings online

Had a great experience staying at this Hotel. We picked it because it was close to the local train station and away from the busy downtown. Hotel staff were excellent, very friendly and accommodating. The free shuttle into Town was an excellent feature. Breakfast was really nice. The Hotel Restaurant manager always went above and beyond to make people happy. If you bring a baby be prepared to have him show him or her off to the rest of the guests. Cost was very reasonable for rooms and and restaurant. Nightly entertainment in the bar. Overall an exceptional place to stay away from all the downtown crowds and noise. The views were exceptional from the balcony and upper deck!

A good full service hotel. A good place to setup base in sorrento. The shutle was very convenient to keep you close to town, but allows you to escape the tourists to a quieter part of the area. Room was good enough and although a bit dated, it actually adds to the old world charm of the hotel. The restaurant was great with a rotating dinner menu and the selection of pastries and cakes was impressive. The restaurant staff we're fantastic and really go out of their way to be hospitable.

This hotel needs a lot of improvement to rate as a 4 Star in my opinion. (Yes it does have a nice pool and garden which is great, and I guess helps it get an extra star) Yes the outside looks excellent but unfortunately the interior is very dated, especially the rooms which appear to have no noise insulation at all, the beds are hard and the bathrooms are just so outdated. Unfortunately that is not the end of it. The food is the worst we have had anywhere in the last decade that we can recall, and certainly the worst we had in Italy in the proceeding two weeks. I strongly suspect the Chief has been there for many years and does no realise things have changed. I would suggest he is taken out to one of the many excellent restaurants in town for him to see how it can be done. I am very surprised at how good the rating are. We can only assume some others don't get away very often and are pleased not to have to cook themselves.

Séjour très agréable. Personnel accueillant, navette gratuite vers Sorrento, service de réservation d’excursions. Belle piscine, terrasse invitante. Musique en soirée. Très bon petit déjeuner style buffet, beaucoup de variété, je recommande de l’inclure. Lunch à la carte sur la terrasse très bon. Le seul commentaire est pour le repas du soir, qui est un menu pré-établi et qui change tous les jours mais qui n’est pas à la hauteur du reste de la qualité de l’hôtel. Je ne recommande pas le repas du soir, qui semble être fait en grande quantité. Je retournerais volontiers à l’hôtel Caravel.

Really wanted to give this 3.5 stars but the system won’t let me. Good points: well isolated from traffic noise. Aircon on all the time. Pool and loungers well located and sufficient. Breakfast. Transportation service into Sorrento. Not so good: internal noise insulation poor, i.e. noise from adjacent rooms (particularly toilet flushing). Don’t bother having dinner there as other local restaurants are much better and cheaper.

This hotel is exceptional. Very clean with all amenities. Beautiful pool and veranda with a bar and restaurant on site. Breakfast was outstanding with hot foods, fruit and pastries. Excellent wait staff bring cappuccino. Complimentary shuttle every 30 minutes is a 5 minute ride to downtown Sorrento. Very convenient. Staff are very polite and helpful to accommodate needs and set up any services/tours. Very walkable to many services. I highly recommend and would definitely return!
