Hotel del Sole

Comfortable room in a location directly across from the entrance to the ruins. Nice breakfast and very accommodating staff.

The location was excellent. We chose it due to it being just minutes from one of the entrances to the Pompeii ruins. A far superior location to that of Pompeii Scavi. Being minutes away from the centre of Pompeii; the thriving bustling hub of today's Pompeii.

The shower! Why, oh why can hotels not get showers right. They all appear to inadvertently install showers that malfunction, run cold, dribble, or as in the case of our shower, the water did not run away fast enough, and had an ill fitting door, which meant one had to use the shower at low pressure, in order to not allow it to soak the bathroom floor.

Position A for the archeological site, and easy access to the train line for visiting Herculaneum, Naples and Sorrento. Eating breakfast overlooking the ruins made for a perfect start to the day!

Room could do with better power / upgrading to USB sockets

Great location within walking distance from the train station and facing the archaeological park. The room was adequate for our needs although could not understand there being a kettle and 2 tea bags but no coffee or milk! The lady in charge of breakfast was extremely welcoming and helpful. There was a good choice of food made all the better by the view as the breakfast room is on the 4th floor. We stayed for 4 nights and as we had a packed agenda booked half board which was a huge disappointment. The restaurant is connected to the hotel but also open to the public and could be noisy as our room was situated above. The menu for half board was very limiting made worse by the fact that we had to pay service charge, of which we were unaware, every night !
