Overall, Il Faro is just fine. It is not a 4 star hotel, it is squarely 3 star and little things like providing hair conditioner, which it did not in my room, and a hair dryer with a longer cord from the wall to see the hair I was drying, would have been greatly appreciated. However, my room was well cleaned, the very busy dining room staff at the end of the season were still nice, and the location at the marina provided sea views rooms which being in town would not. The hotel is a good value but not exciting.

Beautiful view of the sea and easy access to the ferries. The staff was wonderful. Once we found out about the bus stop out front and the lift to the top of the city center it was even better. :)

My husband and I arrived via ferry to the port of Sorrento and walked over to our hotel in less than 10 minutes which was our favorite part. There are beach clubs, restaurants and transportation within walkable distance. The hotel room and bathroom was spacious, clean and had AC which was great. Breakfast is included and there’s a rooftop bar and pool.

Elina was awesome for me, thank you! It was a short lil walk to the lift if needed, I took a lot of ferries, so it worked out very well. Great window views, and the hot lil circle town square was very close to explore if wanted. Great location Ciao

Great hotel. Pictures do not do it justice. We were pleasantly surprised in how nice this hotel is. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Rooms were super cute and clean. I loved the boutique feel of the hotel. Had wine on the rooftop with a beautiful sea view. Had an amazing dinner at the on site restaurant where restaurant staff were so attentive providing amazing table side service. Location is everything, and Il Faro has it. Located right in front of the port and easy access to ferries, taxis and public bus. 5 minutes walk up the road to the top of the city center. Can be a little noisy at night, but it’s just the hustle and bustle of the town which I love. Didn’t bother us.

What a great hotel down beside the harbour nice and handy for early morning checking in for boat trips. Lovely setting looking out to see and staff were friendly and helpful. Bit of a walk up the steps to get to the square were there is an abundance of eateries and shops but there is a shuttle bus that also runs.

Started a little rough because one of our rooms was flooded and very dirty, but got much better after that. The manager gave us a much better room. The staff was quite helpful. The rooms were clean and spacious. Location was amazing. Only complaint was that the rooms got very damp due to the proximity to the sea. Not being able to leave the AC on all day made it hard to get that dampness out. Otherwise a great experience.

The property was clean, room was nicely decorated, loved the pool area and it is located within close proximity to ferrys that go to Amalfi Coast therefore, very convenient. However, the amount of steps to get down to the hotel and then to go up when you want to walk and explore Sorrento are not only overwhelming at first glance but quite a workout especially when bringing luggage as there is no one to assist or any form of transportation provided by hotel to get you down there or up and out when leaving. At night and early morning the walk up to the town by the steps is also not well lit. Also, lacked professionalism as two female employees were arguing and screaming at one another while we were in our room. It was not only uncomfortable but unpleasant.
