Hotel Villa Margherita, Sant' Agnello

This charming three-star hotel in Campania is set in a beautiful Liberty style building in the historic centre of Sant'Agnello - a quiet resort which lies around ten minutes away from the centre of Sorrento. Hotel Villa Margherita stands on a handsome street lined with elegant villas dating from the 1880s in an area that was once popular with the artists and poets who flocked to Sorrento for its lovely mild climate, atmospheric coastline and the friendliness of the locals. Lord Byron passed through here during his Grand Tour, as did the writers Goethe and Stendhal and guests staying here will be able to enjoy the refined old-world ambience that these poets experienced.

There are 24 light-filled rooms, all with high ceilings and pretty period details, some with a delightful balcony offering views out to sea. Each of the rooms has been individually decorated and furnished in typical Mediterranean style with wrought-iron bedsteads and ceramic tiles of white and blue echoing the colours of the beach. Guests may choose between single, double, twin and triple rooms, all with private en-suite bathroom facilities featuring a bath or shower and hairdryer as well as direct-dial telephone, a small personal safe and satellite television. Room service is available.

The Villa Margherita has a beautiful panoramic sun terrace where guests can enjoy fine views of the Gulf, furnished with comfortable chairs and sun-loungers as well as umbrellas. There is also a relaxing lounge/bar with an intimate, cosy atmosphere. There is friendly, efficient 24-hour service on the front desk and staff will be delighted to offer you tourist information about the Sorrento peninsula, book transfers and guided excursions or offer tips on where to find the best shopping or information about the many cultural events on offer throughout the year. A range of therapeutic and relaxing beauty treatments are on offer and there is a pleasant shaded play area for children in the hotel garden.
