We wanted a hotel with breathtaking views away from the heart of town. This place fit the bill perfectly. Check in was easy. There was some brief explanation about the restaurant hours and their town shuttle times, but all of this information is on a brochure in your room. The rooms were bright and cheerful. They do require you to put your room key in a slot to get electricity to the room (so keep your curtains drawn if you're out to keep the room cool). AC worked fine. Bed was quite comfy. The view from our balcony....I could have stared at it all day. Heavenly. We did not use the pool, but it looked wonderful. There is also a hot tub on the other side of the pool area. There's a spacious poolside bar/lounge that serves sandwiches in the off-times between lunch and dinner. I highly recommended their limoncello spritzes! We had a fun time after dinner with the bar staff watching Napoli's football team on the bar TV. Breakfast is in the main dining area. It has an old school banquet hall vibe with white tablecloths and chair covers. The servers there were top notch. Breakfast had the usual hot breakfast foods and a massive table of all kinds of sweets (pastries, cakes, etc). Dinner was also delicious. The menu has section of chef's recommendations, and they were spot-on. The hotel has a shuttle to the heart of downtown Sorrento that runs every half hour, with breaks in the afternoon and around dinner. It picks you up across the street from the hotel. Getting the shuttle back to the hotel can be a bit confusing because other hotels pick up at the same spot, but all of the drivers are very friendly and helpful. In fact, one night a driver for another hotel's bus agreed to take us to the hotel because the hotel bus was either full or running behind. It seems like they all work together to help out the visitors. I highly recommend Grand Hotel Aminta for a quiet, relaxing visit to Sorrento.
