Dating back to 1875, the fully renovated Hotel Minerva is set in a period stone building with its flame red shutters, commanding spectacular views from its cliff top position above the gulf of Naples. The 58 individually designed rooms have an Italian flavor, with cool stone floors, dark wood furnishings and cheerful patterns. Many have sea views and all include air conditioning, minibars, direct dial telephones and satellite television.

The hotel restaurant serves up an Italian menu featuring local produce and a variety of traditional dishes, with outside dining on the terrace overlooking the bay. Guests can enjoy a drink on the hotel's large sun terrace and cool off in the refreshing waters of the swimming pool, while admiring the lovely scenery of the Campania coast. The hotel also has an elevator and a parking garage.

The center of Sorrento is a few minutes walk where visitors can enjoy boutiques, alfresco cafΘ dining or simply a stroll around the Marina Grande fishing port. Those wishing to explore further afield can visit the preserved city of Pompei, just 18 kilometers away.
