Hotel Astoria

Sorrento


This renovated classic has the advantage of being located in the heart of the centro storico (historic centre). Overall, it’s an excellent choice. The interior sparkles with glossy tiles and blue and buttercup-yellow paintwork. The large enclosed back terrace is a delightful surprise, with seats shaded by orange and lemon trees, and colourful tiled murals lining the back wall.
