We loved our stay at Il Nido. We went in early October, and the hotel was very quiet. Our ocean-view room (#118) was spotlessly clean, as was the hotel in general. The room was also very large by european standards, which was a bonus. I'm not sure if this is true of all of their ocean-view rooms, but ours had a spectacular view of the Bay of Naples, with Mount Vesuvious clearly visible across the bay. A nice semi-private balcony made it a nice place to just relax and watch the boats on the bay.
All of the staff were very welcoming, helpful, and hard-working. A special thanks goes out to Dino, who was a tremendous help in getting us to the bus station the morning of our departure.
The breakfast buffet was as expected, with a relatively large selection of morning fare. The single hotel dinner meal that we ate at the hotel was very good.
The shuttle bus that runs in the morning and late afternoon/evening was very helpful in getting us into town and then back up to the hotel. You wouldn't want to walk it, since it's several miles on a winding/narrow/uphill road.
If we return to Sorrento, we will stay at this hotel again!
