The location of this hotel, within easy walking disrance of Vico's shops, restaurants and mainline train station was excellent. Rooms were spotlessly clean and staff very helpful. The swimming pool was a lovely addition while the restaurant on the terrace afforded stunning views of the Bay of Naples.

Nice little hotel with a breathtaking view, lush and beautiful garden and a very good pool / relaxing area. The room that we stayed in is quite outdated, but was always cleaned spotless. The location is amazing, I highly recommend this hotel, would love to return in the future.

The hotel was in a great location, train station 5 mins walk. Staff were v helpful particularly with our omelettes and decaf coffees for breakfast. It was great to have the pool to come back to after busy days exploring. The only criticism was what we thought was a fridge with complimentary drinks was actually a mini bar but with no price list.

The front desk staff was so incredibly helpful guiding me with the public transportation system, I am very grateful to them, made my stay so much more easier and enjoyable. The view from the patio restaurant is so incredibly beautiful. The hotel is a 2 min walk away from the train station which is convenient, be aware the hotel is located on a hill. Their restaurant food is delicious, they close at 2pm after lunch i believe, and open after 7:30pm for dinner, so if you need to eat between those times there is a good restaurant open right across the street.

Amazing Hotel !
The Hotel was exactly like the pictures, amazing view and the staff are so friendly and helpful with every question you have!
We couldn’t of picked a better place to stay, the location was perfect.. a 2 minute walk to the train station and 12 minute train to Sorrento!
Vico Equense is perfect as it’s away from the crowds in Sorrento so you get less of a ‘ tourist ‘ experience but still plenty to do:)
Would recommend to anyone!

We stayed for 4 nights, and it was very comfortable. The staff was courteous and professional, the beds were comfortable, the rooms were quiet and clean. Breakfast has a wide variety of delicious options. The pool is great but closes too early. Would be nice to swim after sightseeing all day, or sit out there in the evening. In spite of the short pool hours, I would stay again. Very beautiful hotel!

Quite surprised this is a 4* hotel. The rooms were really cheap and there was a weird smell in our bathroom. Breakfast was not much to have, some sweets and yoghurt.
The location of the hotel was great. But there are cheaper 3* alternatives around the area with better standards.

The property served the needs
However, not providing basis necessities such as shower gel or shampoo, or an iron for guests, is quite odd. Would these added perks be appreciated, most definitely. All our clothes were very creased, with no way to look decent.
Plus the hanging place for our clothes was squashed next to the fridge, was not ideal.

Fantastisk service og vidunderlig udsigt.
Vi nød opholdet, alle medarbejdere ydede en fantastisk service og vi følte os meget velkomne. Selv om det var i højsæsonen var der god plads både ved poolen og i restauranten.
Morgenmadsbuffeten var en smule ensformig, men til gengæld var udsigten fra spiseområdet vidunderlig, det samme var udsigten fra vores balkon.
Rengøringsdamen sørgede dejligt for at holde værelser og området pænt og rent.
Byen havde mange fine spisesteder og var hyggelig at gå rundt i. Vi vil på alle måder anbefale stedet.
