Location

Hotel Il Faro boasts an impressive location, right on the waterfront of Marina Piccola with stunning views of the Sorrento Gulf. Guests loved the convenience of being just steps away from the ferry to Capri and having easy access to other areas of the Amalfi Coast. The hotel is strategically located in the heart of the city, close to the main attractions and surrounded by restaurants and shops. Despite being close to everything, it remains a tranquil oasis and guests enjoyed the peacefulness of the area. The clean and comfortable rooms offer a perfect vantage point to take in the impressive views of the harbor. While the location is near perfect, bear in mind that some guests noted that the property does require some uphill walking or taking the lift to the center of Sorrento. Overall, this hotel offers an unbeatable location for those looking to explore Sorrento and beyond.

Breakfast

Hotel Il Faro offers a decent breakfast to its guests that is served with attention. Some guests have suggested improving it by incorporating local products and increasing its quality. However, others have praised the breakfast, calling it great or spectacular. The breakfast buffet is also mentioned as a great facility. While some guests found the breakfast basic or of poor quality, many appreciated the variety of foods and good coffee. Some guests have suggested adding more fruits to the breakfast. Late risers have mentioned that the breakfast options shrink as the plates are not regularly re-filled. Despite the mixed reviews, the staff's cordiality during breakfast service and the hotel's location and price point compensate for any shortcomings.

Rooms

Hotel Il Faro offers a comfortable stay with clean rooms and a great value for money. Many guests appreciate the friendly and welcoming staff who make their stay enjoyable. The rooms may have a dated style, but they offer great amenities such as hairdryers and clean bathrooms. The highlights are the stunning views of the sea from the rooms with balconies or large terraces. However, some guests find the rooms too small or outdated and may not be suitable for more than two people. The hotel could also use some renovation as guests have noticed moldy smells and dampness in some rooms. Despite these drawbacks, most guests appreciate the cleanliness and festive nautical vibe of the hotel.

Beds

Hotel Il Faro boasts of a coastal-themed decor that adds a unique charm to each room, as shared by one reviewer. The comfortable bed ensures that guests enjoy a good night's sleep, while another reviewer commended the clean and cozy ambiance of their room. However, some guests commented on the beds being somewhat hard or the mattresses not to their liking. Despite mixed opinions on the bed's firmness, most guests have had a restful stay when staying at Hotel Il Faro.

Cleanliness

Hotel Il Faro is a clean and welcoming hotel according to guest reviews. Many guests praised the cleanliness and overall nice ambiance of the hotel. The staff was described as professional and friendly and the rooms had lovely views and were very clean with towels changed daily. However, some guests did have issues with the cleanliness, such as strong vinegar smells on towels, mold growing on the ceiling, dirty bathrooms and shower doors and dirty floors. Despite these few negative experiences, the majority of guests found the hotel to be spotless and highly recommended it for its location and cleanliness.

Pool

Hotel Il Faro promises a rooftop pool with a stunning view of the bay and it delivers! Although some guests experienced closure due to bad weather, others raved about the incredible pool and terrace area. The pool may be small, but it's still great for a relaxing dip. Some guests were surprised and not happy about the charge of €15 for sunbeds and umbrellas, but paying for a cozy spot in the picturesque rooftop pool area might be worth it for those seeking a chill-out day. However, the limited service might underwhelm some and it's disappointing that some guests had to pay again to use the pool since it should be part of the stay. Lastly, be aware that the pool may have an odd schedule, as it is closed early or only opens late for the bar. Overall, while the pool might not be the highlight of everyone's stay, it's perfect for decent swim or an afternoon sunbathing with a view.

Beach

Hotel Il Faro offers stunning sea views and a beach area close by. The hotel is perfectly situated near the port and ferry arrival, making it convenient for transportation. The location is ideal for those who want to be near the sea with a small free swimming beach available nearby. The hotel charges extra for sun loungers on the sky deck, but guests suggest the price of renting a sun-lounger should be free. Some guests noted there is no beach access directly from the hotel, but the proximity to the sea and the atmosphere of the place more than make up for it. However, some guests mentioned that there was limited space for drying beach towels. Despite this, the hotel is highly recommended for its perfect placement in the port area and the gorgeous coastline surroundings.
