Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

While the people were lovely, the grounds a beautiful garden, and the breakfast fabulous, the location requires just over an unattractive mile walk to downtown or 25 Euro minimum taxi fare. The room was a great size yet sparsely decorated making it less than cozy. The walls and ceiling were also paper thin making it easy to hear everything next door and above us. This kept us awake late both nights. The driver they arranged for airport pick up was late and didn't speak English, as they assured us he would. Overall, not a spot we'd return to.

This is an absolutely wonderful place to stay! Maria and her staff are amazing, so accommodating and their hospitality is second to none. Fresh breakfast pastries every morning were delicious. The hotel is a bit removed from the hustle and bustle of Sorrento, so it’s nice and quiet with great views, but close enough to walk downtown!

Amazing- views, food, service and rooms. This was our favorite hotel on our trip- we had gone to Venice, Florence and Rome prior coming over to Sorrento. Who can resist fresh lemonade and cake when you first arrive? And the breakfast was delicious with a wide variety of delicious homemade treats. Cannot express how much we truly felt welcomed and grateful for such wonderful hospitality. This was a girl’s trip, and first time in Italy. Well done! Perfecto! Grazie mille!

From the courteous and helpful staff to the sumptuous buffet breakfasts and sweeping views of Sorrento and Mt. Vesuvius, Villa Oriana is truly a special place. My husband and I just spent a glorious week there and cannot recommend the Villa too highly. Set at the end of a lemon grove, it is a clean, quiet, comfortable, and welcoming “home away from home.” You will feel pampered by the owner and personal attention from her staff,

My wife and I stayed here for two nights and it was absolutely amazing. I have traveled a good amount and have stayed at some nice places, but this was probably the best overall hospitality experience I have ever had. It’s a small hotel with only six rooms, so it never felt busy or crowded. When we arrived, the staff welcomed us with lemonade (made from lemons in their garden) and delicious homemade cake. The whole staff was incredible. The room was spotless. We had a sea view room, and the view from the room was gorgeous. Maria the owner is special, she wakes up at 5 AM every morning and bakes for the breakfasts. She cares deeply about the guests and the overall guest experience. There’s a reason this hotel is rated the number one hotel in Sorrento on TripAdvisor. It’s a

Villa Oriana is EXCEPTIONAL! The views are stunning and the stay is beautiful. We were treated like family from the moment we arrived. Maria and everyone there were so accommodating and made sure we felt special everyday. The property was unmatched and clean. Our hotel was almost changed for our Sorrento stay and we are beyond glad and grateful that it wasn’t. Our family cannot wait to go back to Villa Oriana!

We had a fabulous stay at the Villa Oriana Relais from October 10-12. Maria and her staff were exceptional, going the extra yard to make our stay that much more enjoyable. The accommodations were relaxing and comfortable and we had two nights of relaxing sleep on a very busy vacation! Breakfast was delicious with home-baked cakes and pastries. Maria even sent us the recipes after our stay. Our only regret is that we couldn't spend more time at this beautiful villa. We will be back!

My stay at this hotel was truly unforgettable. The awesome experiences began with the warm and welcoming staff who went out of their way to make me feel at home. The owner and the entire team were exceptional in their hospitality, always willing to assist with a smile. The highlight of each morning was the delightful home-cooked breakfast, which was both delicious and comforting. The combination of a wonderful owner, friendly staff, and these culinary delights created a perfect start to my day. This hotel is a gem, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a remarkable and inviting experience. I can't wait to return for another stay!

I stayed here with my daughter for two nights and had such a wonderful time. Maria and her staff were extremely hospitable and made us feel like family the moment we arrived. The breakfast was all homemade with ingredients from the family’s garden. The views are spectacular overlooking the sea. The room was immaculate and very spacious. The pillows were super comfortable. The bathroom was very large too. It is also off the busy town square, so it was very quiet and peaceful. I highly recommend this gem in Sorrento and can’t wait to return!
