Folks just back from organised trip from Dublin to Sorrento, stayed
in the above hotel - warning - beware! Listed 4 star, more like no star, food non-existent, portions miserable, salad skimpy no selection if late to salad bar, nothing topped up. Breakfast menial, no fruit, no choice of breads (one only- re-heated daily). Food distribution watched over carefullly by Manageress who was like someone running a Borstal. No bar area for evening drinks. A train ride away from Sorrento, one problem train station at top of hill - at least 20 minutes walk from Hotel. Complaints treated with contempt and overall very unpleasant experience. If you are booked - try cancel. Are the folks isolated - anyone else experience Sorrentos equivalent to Cybil Fawlty!
Sorry you had a bad experience at your hotel. Not the way to run a four star establishment. I hope its not put you off going back to Sorrento. Apart from being underfed at breakfast in a couple of hotels, we have generally been happy with our accommodation. So I think your signora Fawlty must be part of a small minority. Anyway, I would like to ask you about the seafront at Piano. On my map, it shows a couple of umbrellas and some speckles which suggests there might be a sandy beach, suitable for swimming and sun-bathing. Did you get down there and if so what's it like ?
