Guest Reviews
Location
Situated just a short walk away from the quaint village center of Sant’Agata sui due Golfi, visitors can easily enjoy the local restaurants, shops and charming atmosphere this small town offers. Despite its slightly remote hillside position, the hotel ensures convenience with a free shuttle service to and from Sorrento, making it simple to access the vibrant city without staying amid its hustle and bustle.

Breakfast
Numerous reviewers mention the breakfast as superb with many local products and fresh ingredients adding to the appeal. Omelettes, freshly squeezed juices and hot beverages such as cappuccinos and espresso made to order enhance the overall experience. The breakfast is said to be filling, diverse and caters well to international guests, ensuring that it meets a wide range of dietary preferences and desires.
While there are occasional mentions of some items like cakes being dry and a few reviews suggesting room for improvement, the overwhelming consensus is positive. Guests appreciate the hearty and varied selection, the pleasant breakfast ambiance and the consistently good service provided by the staff. Descriptors such as delicious, exceptional and perfect frequently appear, underscoring the high-quality breakfast experience at Hotel Iaccarino.
Dinner
However, the consistency of the dinner offerings varied. While some found the dishes tasty with undeniable quality and reasonable prices, others felt the menu was too limited, lacking in imagination and not living up to expectations. The service, efficient though it was, sometimes felt rushed and forced, which detracted from the overall dining experience.
Lunch on the terrace received consistently favorable reviews, noted for its good food and excellent service. In contrast, the dinner menu, described by some as coming from a large-scale kitchen and in need of improvement, was a point of disappointment for several diners.
Noteworthy are the themed gala evenings and the historic ambiance of the restaurant, which added to the charm for some guests. Ultimately, while the hotel restaurant has clear potential and strong points, there is room for improvement, particularly in the consistency and variety of its dinner offerings.
Rooms
However, numerous reviews point out that the rooms and bathrooms are dated and in need of renovation with some furnishings appearing worn out. Soundproofing is a common issue, as many guests could hear noises from neighboring rooms and outside, affecting their sleep. The bathrooms, in particular, seem to be a weak point, often described as old, small and lacking modern fixtures like proper ventilation. There are occasional reports of cleanliness issues, including less-than-clean bathrooms and general wear and tear.
Despite these drawbacks, the comfort and cleanliness of the rooms are generally well-regarded, making them adequate for many guests. The spectacular views from certain rooms and the historical character of the hotel provide unique charm and appeal, potentially making up for some of the dated decor and occasional maintenance issues.
Beds
However, a few guests noted inconsistencies. Instances of discomfort arose, linked to issues such as two single beds being pushed together to simulate a double bed, leading to height discrepancies between mattresses. Some found the mattresses too soft, hard or worn out, lacking proper support.
Despite these occasional drawbacks, guests generally slept well, appreciating the comfort level of the beds. This mixed feedback suggests that while the hotel hits the mark for many, it might need to address some inconsistencies to ensure all guests have an equally restful experience.
Cleanliness
However, there are several remarks about areas needing improvement. Some guests found issues with specific elements in the rooms such as dirt, dust and outdated or broken fixtures.

4 Star
However, a recurring theme in the reviews highlights that the hotel is in need of renovations and maintenance to keep up with its star rating. The structure has been described as old-fashioned and the rooms, although clean, are dated and sometimes uncomfortable. The small showers and lacking cleanliness in standard rooms were also pointed out as areas needing improvement.
Moreover, the breakfast service, while decent, does not consistently meet the standards expected of a four-star hotel. Overall, the Hotel Iaccarino could benefit from updates to its facilities to align more closely with the expectations set by its rating. Despite these criticisms, some guests still consider it a worthy destination, emphasizing its potential if certain improvements are made.
Business
Accessible
However, there are areas where accessibility falls short. While there is an elevator, many stairs and some rooms are not wheelchair accessible and might present challenges, particularly for those with suitcases or large families. Specific requirements are sometimes overlooked and some floors remain out of reach without elevator access. Additionally, the hotel may not be the safest option for disabled guests due to maintenance needs in some areas. Therefore, while the hotel offers many accessible features and dedicated service, it might not fully meet the needs of all guests with disabilities.
