The four-pearl Grand Hotel Riviera provides gorgeous views over the Mediterranean Sea from many of its outdoor spaces. Its location allows for private sea access off a lovely deck. The 100 guest rooms are spacious and feature Mediterranean decor, flat-screen TVs, kettles, free Wi-Fi, and minibars -- plus some have balconies with lovely views. Though the hotel lacks a gym or spa, luxe features include an outdoor pool with sea vistas, two restaurants serving seafood and Neapolitan cuisine, and a bar with an outdoor patio -- plus breakfast is included in rates. Hotel Parco dei Principi is a good alternative in the area with the added features of a gym and business center, but it's located farther from the center of town.

This quiet, family-run hotel set in the hills slightly outside of Sorrento provides a peaceful respite from the hum of the city, and is consistently lauded for its cleanliness and welcoming atmosphere. However, families traveling with children might find it to be too quiet; there are few, if any, activities besides the small pool in the back. The decor here contains nods to historical Italian objects without being particularly over-the-top: there are framed paintings and the occasional inlaid wood vanity in the hallways, but the hotel's overall atmosphere is one of simplicity.

The 100-room Art Hotel Gran Paradiso is an upper-middle-range property with panoramic views of the Gulf of Naples. Its setting up a steep hill means the free shuttle service is popular, and the ride is under 10 minutes. It has a pleasing garden setting, art-filled interiors, and a quiet environment, though live music at night provides some entertainment. A sea-view outdoor pool is the highlight here, plus there are a small spa. Unfortunately, the gym won't be available until 2019 and food at the restaurant receives mixed reviews. On the plus side, all rates include a free breakfast buffet and Wi-Fi. Rooms are fairly simple, though many have lovely colorful accents and sea-view balconies. Others, however, have poor views of bushes. As this hotel only accepts guests over 14, young families should consider Grand Hotel Flora.

The Palazzo Tasso is a tiny, 11-room hotel situated in the heart of Sorrento.

Bay of Naples views are breathtaking at the Grand Hotel Royal, a four-pearl property with 101 rooms and a dramatic cliff setting near downtown Sorrento.

Bright, elegant interiors mostly have Old-World charm, while some upgraded rooms were renovated in 2017 to a modern look. All rooms have minibars, flat-screen TVs, and private furnished balconies. Free breakfasts are high-quality, and further amenities include a pool amid gorgeous gardens, sea-view terrace, and access to nearby wellness center providing massages. For killer views with a lighter price-tag, consider the Hotel Britannia.

The 115-room Grand Hotel Ambasciatori is a classic, luxury hotel perched dramatically above the sea with stunning views across the Bay of Naples to Mount Vesuvius. It has a private beach -- actually, more of a bathing deck with lounge chairs -- reached via an elevator. The hotel is not quite centrally located; the heart of Sorrento is a 15-minute walk away. Rooms are spacious and airy with modern design touches, lovely tile floors, and scenic balconies. The elegant restaurant and bars take advantage of the beautiful vistas. For travelers who don’t mind the higher price, the sea view rooms are quieter than the ones that overlook the road.

The Boutique Hotel Helios is a small, upper-middle-range property overlooking the sea in Sorrento, about a 15- to 20-minute walk to the city center. The 15 Mediterranean-style rooms have fresh-looking white walls and blue ceramic-tile floors -- they include flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi -- and upgraded rooms offer spectacular sea views. Roomy bathrooms include rainfall showers and bidets. A highlight is the rooftop terrace with tables, loungers, and a hot tub. There's a small gym, and private beach access -- for a fee -- through another hotel. The staff delivers the personalized service of a boutique property, but guests looking for more facilities might want to consider the Bristol Hotel, which has a pool, sauna, and restaurant but a less-intimate ambience.

Grand Hotel Aminta’s 600-foot-high hillside location gives remarkable views and is within walking distance to the hubbub of Sorrento. With its welcoming mansion-like appearance, it calls to mind grand hotels of days past but with completely modern touches. Still, some guests may feel the clean, simply styled rooms are a bit tight. An exclusive feature of this hotel is its weekly gala night dinners for guests -- an elegant affair with local dishes, music, and a vintage vibe. The property also has a large pool, fantastic views, and an extensive wine collection.

Looking every bit the epitome of a charming, small Italian hotel, the Le Terrazze is built into the hills that overlook the stunning Bay of Naples, offering sweeping views from its rooftop pool, breakfast terrace, and 24 apartment-style rooms. Its location is a bit isolated from a nearby village and the main town of Sorrento, but it makes a great base for couples or friends looking to explore either the bay area or the Amalfi Coast (a car, however, is very much recommended). The hotel is outfitted in blue and white furnishings typical of the Mediterranean, and decor is far more modern than most in the region. All rooms come with kitchenettes, sitting and dining areas, and balconies -- though these aren't very private. Travelers may prefer the Grand Hotel De La Ville, which has more amenities but dated rooms.
