We loved the decorations and history of the castle. Very ornate a little over the top but beautiful. There were two weddings at the hotel and they were very loud all night but that's the way it goes. Great pool and fountains everywhere

It was fabulously designed and decorated, some say over the top for every day occasions, but we loved it. Holiday decorations accented the effect.

The staff were helpful at reception. We unfortunately were there when the coronavirus was over north of Italy, and we were the only residents very strange. The hotel is very kitch not to our liking at all, something like Hearst Castle in California. Definitely not 5 stars , I would give it 3 star.o We had been booked into a nearby hotel but on arrival the restaurant was closed and we had to get taxis every night. Thanks to Bennis at Expedia he got usmoved to the sonrisa.

Shower leaked all over floor, door handke fell off, paint was scruffy. Got upgraded room which was better. Staff helpful. But so so so noisy at night - music and shouting from nightly parties so could not sleep. Hotel not willing to lower music volume.

The hotel was a beautiful place to spend a few days, staff were friendly and helpful, the rooms were large and clean. The bar was reasonably priced for a hotel. Only let down was no sun loungers by the pool area, which I can understand as the hotel is geared towards a wedding venue. Ideal place to stay for a few days if traveling around the local area.

Beautiful.
Wonderful and helpful front of house staff. We travelled as 3 Adults. Myself, My Dad and Nephew. We were blown away by the hotel. It has such beautiful old charm. Just stunning. We found that the Taxis were very expensive! Although, less so if you book through Reception. Great stay.

Hotel is a beautiful building with very friendly staff. The room unfortunately was very minimal and looked very exhausted. It could be brought up to a very high standard but it seems no body cares.

An Oasis in a not so pretty town.
The hotel was amazing.It was over the top.Everything was like it was in a movie.There were birthday parties in the afternoon with doves being released and a horse drawn carriage with one of the birthday girls in it.There were fresh flowers everywhere.The breakfast had wonderful croissants and great cappuccinos There was ham and cheese and not so good cold fried eggs.The room was well supplied with all sorts of amenities, toothbrush, toothpaste,soaps.cue tips,needle and threads.Supper was too late for us so we had room service on our balcony.It was deliscious.Agreat stay and a short drive in the morning to the Scavi of Ercolano.

Over The Top Decor
Over the top décor and surroundings, but we really enjoyed our time here. The staff was great and the things to look at in the hotel were very interesting. The air conditioning worked great. The rooms could use a little maintenance in some areas, but we did not mind because everything else made the stay fun.

Magical
I felt as if I had stepped into a dream world where every idea of what would make me happy had already been considered. Initially I thought the decor was overly dramatic, however it was with intent as it is a famous wedding venue. The staff was very intent on ensuring our happiness. It’s wonderful. Highly recommend stay here, just for the experience. It’s like being in a large, sweet, wedding cake.

Amazing and Palatial Hotel
This hotel was booked because it is close to Pompei and Ercolano. Taxis were available from the hotel. we took the taxi to the Pompei and then the train onwards to Ercolano. We had use of their sister hotel for use of the swimming pool. this was on the roof, and had a stunning view of Versuvius, and Pompei. The hotel has bookings every day for the most stunning weddings. The restaurant was good. The hotel is so outstanding, and famous people stay there. This is inland, not near a beach. The roads do not have pavements. No where to walk to.
