Hotel Metropole Sorrento sits on the hillside above Sorrento, offering a quieter base than the busy centre but still close enough for easy access. Citrus trees, bougainvillea and classic Sorrentine villas line the surrounding streets, giving you a sense of place the moment you step outside.

Life in Sorrento revolves around elegant Piazza Tasso and the maze of lanes leading off it, packed with trattorias, gelaterie and artisan shops. From the hotel, you can travel into town, head down to Marina Grande for seafood lunches on the water’s edge, or use Sorrento as a hub for day trips to Pompeii, Capri and the Amalfi Coast.

Food here leans into comforting Italian classics, with plenty of flexibility for days spent out exploring.

• Main Restaurant – An à la carte spot combining Italian favourites with international choices for breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner. Expect pasta, grilled meats and seasonal produce, plus a kids’ menu to keep younger guests happy.
• Poolside Snack Bar – Informal, à la carte light bites and Italian dishes served beside the pool from lunch into the evening, ideal if you don’t want to stray far from your lounger.
• Metropole Lounge Bar – A cosy bar pouring local wines, aperitivi and international drinks – perfect for a pre-dinner spritz or a relaxing nightcap.

A smart‑casual dress code may apply in the evenings and, as is typical in Italy, restaurant opening times and inclusions can vary by season and board basis. Reservations may be required and some items or premium drinks may incur a supplement, payable locally.

The heart of Hotel Metropole is its outdoor freshwater pool, open seasonally (usually April to October, weather permitting). It’s framed by a sunbathing terrace with loungers and parasols, surrounded by greenery that makes it feel pleasantly secluded after a day in town.

Sorrento’s “beaches” are typically bathing platforms built over the rocks, accessed via lifts or steps from town, with deckchairs and ladders into the sea. From the hotel it’s about 2.1km to the nearest facilities – easy to reach by bus or on foot if you don’t mind hills. Many guests split their time between the hotel pool, boat trips and visits to nearby coastal spots like Marina Grande.
