Set on a promontory overlooking the port of Sorrento, the Grand Hotel Excelsior Vittoria was just voted the best resort in Italy in Travel + Leisure’s World’s Best Awards—and it’s easy to see why.
So, so beautiful. I remember my parents stayed there when we met them in Sorrento-- we were staying at remarkably unattractive hotel we'd found through an AmEx travel agent. Entering the Excelsior Vittoria was like falling into a dream. And I love his comment about light switches. Not sure what it is, but Italians love to complicate the light switches. We told our builder: whatever you do, keep it simple. 20 years later, I still switch on every light in the room before I find the one I'm looking for.
I often go to Sorrento with my cruise enrichment gigs on Azamara , always admired this beautiful hotel…and the Museo Correale,,,, unfortunately the shopping area has become too touristy. Thanks for this insightful interview …
