Staff extremely helpful and friendly. Very nice general areas, food good. Waiters try hard but dinner service is S L O W. No way of getting through fast unless you miss out loads of it. People waiting outside restaurant from 7.30 to be seated which shows the whole thing is not set up for the numbers they have booked in, and it's only May. Having said that you can't help but love 'em. Fantastic views from general hotel. View from back hotel rooms could be a lot nicer if they tidied up the walls and put a bit of effort into the, or should I say `a' planting scheme. Sure sea view rooms are lovely but you pay the price especially if you are a family needing two rooms. Feed the kids during the day at restaurants in town to avoid the service at dinner which starts at 7pm and it too late and long for them to be expected to sit through patiently. Nice and close to the main square, try out the small side streets that run behind main road through for lots of lovely little shops and restaurants. Pool not heated so be very hot before you get in and you'll surive it. Overall very nice hotel that I would go back to, nothing's perfect is it.

We only stayed here for one night, but found the hotel to be very nice. Our room was large, clean, and had a great view of the water. A short walk into Sorrento (but not if you're hauling luggage).

We stayed at the Grand hotel capodimonte for 1 week in april 08 to celebrate our silver wedding anniversary. The hotel was fantastic! Rooms spotless clean with fresh linen daily.

The food was fantastic and staff in restaurant were very friendly and helpful- lots of choice- even for breakfast and we were never rushed , even in the busy mornings.

Overall we would reccomend this hotel for anyone who is looking for a quiet , peaceful get away- can't wait to book up and return again soon!

My husband and I stayed in the Grand Hotel Capodimonte in Sorrento for our Honeymoon four years ago, returned the next year and have just booked to go back again this year..and we can't wait.
Of course the service can be a tad 'huffy', but that's just Italians (I know my dad is from Naples and half my are family there). If you smile and try the odd Italian word they love it!
The rooms are great, wonderful, just think Italian romance, not perfect, new, shiny 5* British standards.
We usually prefer modern hotels, however, this is just the best. The food, although good, doesn't compare to the restaurants in Sorrento, but they are just trying to make it a little more meat/veg. as most half board hotels do.
Yes, it ain't cheap, but where is in Italy? If you want to go to the corner shop to save a few Euros for a beer maybe try Benidorm.
Just look through the photo gallery..amazing!
Oh, make sure to book a sea view or partial sea view. Both are excellent.
