Italy - Sorrento hotels

Expert: Lisa - 10/12/2009

Question
Lisa, Do you know of any reasonable hotels in Sorrento? I'm sure staying here is more reasonable than staying in Positano. If we stayed in Sorrento, can we rent a car and take day trips to Positano, Amalfi, etc....and boat to Capri?

Answer
Hi Julie. Here's a link to Frommer's recommended hotels/pensions:

I would also check out tripadvisor.com. This link will take you to the hotels sorted by price:

I like tripadvisor because you can read what other people say about a place. Just know that some people are very hard to please and some people have simple tastes, so you need to keep that in mind.

Staying in Sorrento may be more reasonable. Here is a list of places in Positano also to compare:

But your idea to stay in Sorrento as your base and take day trips from there is fine. Also a boat to Capri from Sorrento is a good idea.

If you want to see photos of Sorrento, go to google, type in Sorrento, Italy and click on "Images." You can also go to webshots.com and look at people's photos of Sorrento.

Best wishes,
Lisa
