Villa Malaparte

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Cristina for our week in Sorrento. The staff were so lovely and friendly, particularly those serving at all the meal times - nothing was a problem and they always greeted us with a smile. The views were spectacular and our room was very clean and comfortable. We also really appreciated the free shuttle to and from the station - it was easy to book via WhatsApp and they happily helped with luggage. Overall we'd recommend this hotel as a fantastic stay for an Amalfi Coast holiday.

The hotel is impeccable. The room was clean and spacious. No complaints about the property. However, is important to consider that is up in one of the hills. You can walk down to the town but it’s hard to climb back up. There is no sidewalk and the road is busy with buses, cars, motorcycles, etc. That is Amalfi so do your research. Breakfast was bread, cold cuts, yogurts and coffee. They had hard boiled eggs too. They said they are not allowed to cook. So be prepared for that. There are a few restaurants walking distance but they close from 3pm-7pm. That is Amalfi and Italy for you. The owners are polite except for the most senior guy. We saw him slap a guest in the hand for trying to make a sandwich and putting it in the toaster oven. I got yelled at for accidentally taking a banana out of the breakfast area. The other guys who I assume are his sons were polite and helpful but be careful with that older guy.

Amazing and friendly staff, great service. Breakfast is delicious and fresh. Only downfall was not knowing there is an extra charge to use steam room and sauna. Would definitely recommend this hotel to future travellers.
