Maison Montechiaro

The hotel is pretty clean and we had a good view. However it is extremely inconvenient for transportation. Immensely ! There’s a local bus that passes every hour and it’s not reliable. You need to schedule taxis in advanced and they’re every expensive. Car rentals are expensive. There’s only one good restaurant close by.

Really nice hotel in a quiet location. The hotel was well maintained and the pool was great for the kids. We didn’t have a car but there was a bus every hour to the town and train station and a few restaurants close by. Highly recommend if you like to be a little away from the hustle.

Our original hotel fell through so we ended up at this hotel with very short notice. The rooms are very nice, spacious bathrooms and very nice decks. This hotel is perched on the hilltop of Montechiro, behind the church. It has a lovely pool and grounds. We did not have a car, so getting around was difficult at this location, there is a bus, but it only comes by, taking you to Vico Equense where you can catch the train to Sorrento once per hour. There is a corner store and the most beautiful restaurant I have ever been to in my life within walking distance. There are a few things that this hotel can do to improve, they close the pool by 6:30-7 pm which is too early when you’ve been out all day and want an evening swim to cool down. The rooftop deck was only open when there was a bartender available, having it closed on a beautiful summer night is just wrong. Taxi’s and Ubers are absurdly expensive, €30-40 to ride less than 3 km, we were left at the side of the road as the bus driver saw us and just kept going leaving us to walk uphill at night, if this hotel offered a shuttle a few times a day to Meta station, even if it cast a few euros, that would be a game changer and make this hotel just perfect.

The hotel is in an incredible location, the view of the sunset is priceless. The hotel is clean, and the staff is attentive. The only thing that left something to be desired was breakfast. The coffee machine that was available and free to use was instant coffee, which had a questionable taste compared to the excellent Italian espressos. If you wanted, you could ask the waiter for a real espresso or a cappuccino, but these were limited to just one per person.

Overall we really enjoyed our stay.
