Grand Hotel Ambasciatori

Sorrento’s most famous and celebrated hotel, the four star Grand Hotel Ambasciatori has an unrivalled location and a sophisticated ambiance. Dramatically positioned on a vertiginous cliff overlooking the emerald Med, yet still in the heart of this most cosmopolitan of Italian seaside resorts, this hotel is really something special. Inside you will find classic Italian style with the most elegant of dining rooms that features grand chandeliers and picture windows overlooking the sea. Then there’s a sumptuous lounge with marble floors and crystal lighting, and the old-fashioned clubby piano bar. The bedrooms are equally grand, with panelled walls and classic Italian decor, featuring air-conditioning, satellite TV and balconies. Upgrades to sea and garden views are available.

Outside, in a setting of lush tropical gardens, you will find a lovely freeform pool with a hydro massage section, surrounded by sun loungers, deck chairs and cabins, and serviced by the poolside snack bar. Take a lift and you will emerge onto the hotel’s private bathing platform, where there are changing cabins, loungers, parasols and a beach bar. A short stroll brings you into the heart of Sorrento for great shopping and fine choice of restaurants and cafes.
