I can't say this place was amazing. The area it is in is a ways from town. It's a 20 minute walk, which we enjoyed. It's in a pretty part of Sorrento, down by the bay. The hotel was ok. Wasn't thrilled when I thought I had a room with a balcony overlooking the sea, got one on the bottom floor with no view. Oh well. We stayed one night. People were nice, but nothing special.

“Fantastico”

Hotel Admiral

14/14 found this review helpful

LOCATION OF HOTEL:- Excellent. Stunning views across the bay to Sorrento, Naples and Vesuvius. Frequent bus service to
Sorrento (Centre, Bus and Railway Station). Or if you wish a 15 min walk into the town.
HOTEL :- A small hotel, clean and tidy at all times. Food is Very
good and appetising. Rooms are plainly furnished with no frills
STAFF ;- Always smartly dressed and courteous and one is made most welcome

We both agreed that having had such a marvellous time we will return to Sorrento and The Admiral Hotel

Well done to all concerned

“great location but thats all”

4/6 found this review helpful

As the title says - that is all...
Rooms - We stayed at the Admiral for 10 nights and had a large room with a great view, but as someone else stated, the rooms are noisy, no carpets to drown out general noise - not even in the corridors so everything echos, oh and the bedroom doors, boy do they slam, whenever anyone shuts their doors in a surrounding room our windows shook! Rooms could also do with some colour....
Staff - Basically repeating what everyone else seems to have said - they have a rude and bored attitude - apart from the breakfast staff and cleaners. Whenever we went to the bar and the older barman was serving, he never greeted us, the only word we got 'yes' and a 'sign this' as he thrust a receipt at us... the younger barman was more polite.
Food - We only ever had breakfast there and that was enough and what is with the cheap plastic white cups???
But the hotel has great views and is in a great location, the surrounding restaurants are great - they have friendly smiley chatty staff!!!

“Great situation”

3/4 found this review helpful

We particulaly enjoyed the situation of the Admiral, it was an easy walk into town. The real disappointment about the hotel was the staff which we found surly and indifferent especially the barman Santos, he was positively rude. The food at breakfast was poor to average. The evening menu was varied although the buffet lacked organisation which resulted in the people who got food at the end of the line missed out. The hotel does give the impression that all rooms that are classed as seaview overlook the marina they don't! There seemed to be one rule for one and not another. We complained having booked a seaview room that our outlook was directlly sideways with a cliff face facing us. We were told that we had a defined seaview room and could not be moved as the hotel was full and yet a couple from Japan in the room next to us also complained but rather more verbally than us and were moved immediately to one of the rooms overlooking the bay with a sunterrace. It seems that if you stayed for 11 or 14 days you got a side or sea view but those staying for 7 days got a restricted view.The room was very clean but somewhat noisy. The trips organised by the rep were good but it was easy to find you own way to all the tourist attractions at a considerable saving.

“Wonderful Location”

Hotel Admiral

1 Oct 2007
4/5 found this review helpful

Have just spent a week at the Hotel Admiral, and I agree it's location is wonderful. It's clean,comfortable, has good food and is all you would expect from a 3* hotel. My only complaint would be that, the staff are quite surly. The receptionists are bored by your requests, the barman, positively rude. The exceptions to this were the Maitre D and one friendly waiter whose name I think was Raphael. Sadly it spoiled our stay at the Admiral.
