Grand Hotel La Favorita Sorrento: majolica and rooftop pool
Grand Hotel La Favorita, a 5-star hotel in Sorrento’s old town: majolica style, a rooftop pool facing the San Paolo dome, Bellavista bar and Zest restaurant.
Grand Hotel La Favorita and Grand Hotel Europa Palace belong to the same hospitality family. For travellers choosing Sorrento, this means two addresses in the town centre, each with its own personality.
La Favorita stands at Via Torquato Tasso 61, between the sea and the ancient walls, on the street that links the town’s main historic sights. It is a 5-star hotel designed around Mediterranean majolica style, with period artworks and a harmonious atmosphere throughout. In the lobby the marble details, paintings and spiral staircase catch the eye at once, while the rooms, from Classic up to Junior Suites with whirlpool bath and double balcony, are furnished with fine fabrics and works of art.
The most striking spot is the terrace. The Rooftop Pool has sun loungers and a solarium and looks onto the majolica dome of the church of San Paolo, dating back to the ninth century and lit up in the evening. Romantic dinners are set right in front of the Dome, including in a private corner. At the Bellavista Cocktail Bar soft lighting and expert mixology set the tone for aperitivo, and in the morning breakfast can be served in the garden beneath the lemon trees.
The hotel is also home to Zest, chef Domenico Iavarone’s restaurant, included in the MICHELIN Guide, with its veranda overlooking a citrus garden. For Europa Palace guests it is an easy way to see another side of Sorrento: dinner at Zest, a drink at the Bellavista or lunch in the old town, with the Cathedral 50 metres and the beach 100 metres from La Favorita, according to the hotel’s website.
The Grand Hotel Europa Palace, which in turn becomes a 5-star hotel from March 2027, and the Grand Hotel La Favorita together tell the story of hospitality in Sorrento, from Gulf views to the lanes of the centre. La Favorita’s rooms, offers and contacts are at https://www.hotellafavorita.com. For a stay at the Europa Palace, write to us or book directly on our website.
