The hotel does not live up to the web site, photos and the price. Possibly the worst hotel we have ever stayed in. The first room would fail any health and safety standard (live wires hanging out) and hygiene in the bathroom. The second room was pretty close to a prison cell but slightly better finishes. Pool area OK, reception... more

My fiance and I booked Hotel Girasole for a two night stay in Aug 2007. Things started badly when the driver they had confirmed would collect us from Marina Grande when we booked turned out not to be available when we arrived, so we had to find the hotel ourselves, taking a bus from the Marina to Ana Capri and... more

Our stay at Il Girasole in Anacapri was GREAT. This small hotel has 24 rooms. It was an island of calm compared to Capri near Marina Grande. Anacapri on the whole was quieter, and less crowded than Capri sxide of the island. Heaven could be a lot like this place if only there weren’t any credit card charges. Back to... more

My husband booked this trip for me as a birthday surprise. After an exciting fast taxi ride from the airport (the naples taxies are like being on a rollercoaster) we arrived at the port to catch our ferry which is only an hours crossing. the taxi had never heard of the hotel........ then we realised it is in Anacapri, up... more

My best friend and I stayed at the Girasole in June and had a great time. The room was small but comfortable and everything worked, including the a/c. There were some quirks, like the room safe that was not screwed down to the floor or wall and Ciro's charming explanation: "But Signora, gypsies don't come up here and what would... more

This was my second time staying there. I had my postives and negatives. I had a group of 8 traveling with me. Postives: decent rooms, great terrace with a beautiful view of the ocean, good directions on how to reach the hotel, good breakfast. Negatives: we were told we would get a shuttle down to marina grande to go to... more

It was awful. Capri should be a place of tranquility and leisure, but Il Girasole takes away any of that by being one of those places where you just get the feeling that some one is always watching you. It's a good 10 minute walk from the bus stop, and the courtesy bus charges for the privilege of driving you... more
