Perched on the cliffs of the Sorrento Peninsula along the famous "Amalfitana" coast road, find one of Italy's leading grand hotels, the Excelsior Vittoria. A beautiful villa built in 1834, Excelsior Vittoria offers stunning views of Mount Vesuvius and the Bay of Naples, matched only by the beauty of the hotel's 5-acre private garden, filled with citrus and olive orchards that surround an outdoor pool and fill the air with sweet fragrance. Gracious terraces lead down to a pier in the harbor below where guests can take a boat to explore the coastline of the peninsula, or take a trip to Capri, Naples and Ischia. Relax in Mediterranean style, enjoying the spa, restaurants, bars, pool and park grounds of this historic hotel.

I recall looking at this hotel in 1995 as I was out exploring Sorrento as a budget traveler. I decided to visit Sorrento in 2023, booked Grand Hotel Excelsior Vittoria. I brought my niece and nephew for a short 2 night stay. Everything from cocktails on the terrace at sunset, to the relaxing poolside w snacks from L'Orangerie. And the nightcaps at Le Pergola Bar. I just love this hotel. I've been back 3 summers in a row bringing different friends and family to experience the hotel. I have also seen returning guests and familiar team members each year. Corrado (Concierge) is the best!! He has scheduled my private boat tours and they are truly some of my favorite days in life. I look forward to my visit next summer!

We made the mistake of choosing a different hotel in Sorrento on recommendation of a friend, unfortunately, it didn't live up to our expectations. After five nights, we decided to return to the Excelsior Vittoria for the last three nights, and we don't regret it. We always receive an incredibly friendly and hospitable welcome from General Manager Tiziana, as well as the front desk and concierge staff. We were given a beautiful suite that had everything we needed: a spacious bathroom, bedroom, and separate living room. And yes, four balconies, two of which are seafront. Breakfast is, as always, overwhelmingly good, and dinner at L’ Orangerie is also a wonderful experience. The pool is wonderfully quiet and the staff is excellent. We won't stay at any other hotel anymore when we're in Sorrento, next time we choose Grand Hotel Excelsior Vittoria again, the service and quality are consistent and that’s what we like, no surprises.

One of the most beautiful and magical hotels in the world. We had a terrace over looking the sea and the views were breathtaking. The food was delicious and staff went out of their way to be helpful and were incredibly friendly. We did not want to leave and we will definitely be returning. An incredible hotel and experience.

We had a drink on the terrace at this stunning hotel overlooking the Sorrento port. It's a beautiful spot to have a drink and enjoy the scenery. The drinks were expensive, $19 euro's for a small glass of wine, but to be expected for an establishment of this quality and location.
