One of Italy’s leading Grand Hotels, the Excelsior Vittoria is located in Sorrento, the place where it is said that the Roman Emperor Augustus had a beautiful villa with magnificent views of Mount Vesuvius and the Bay of Naples.T he Hotel dates back to 1834, a time when Italy was not yet a unified country. From the day it opened the establishment has been owned and run by the Fiorentino family, one of the few founding hotelier families remaining in Italy today.
The long history of the Excelsior Vittoria is reflected in the unique fin-de-siècle style of the building, which still retains its period of splendour. The interiors are tastefully decorated and contain original antique furniture including beautiful pieces, crafted locally, with inlaid decoration. The Hotel and its terraces, famous for their breathtaking views over the Bay of Naples, have played host to many celebrities and discerning travellers including Kings and Queens, Artists (Richard Wagner, Enrico Caruso, Jack Lemmon, Marilyn Monroe, Sophia Loren) and other notable personalities attracted to Sorrento and the surrounding area.Thanks to this unique location, the hotel offers a variety of different room types. Nearly all the rooms have a veranda or terrace overlooking either the Gulf of Naples or the orange orchard surrounding the hotel. All rooms are ensuite with air-conditioning, satellite TV, minibar, safety deposit box and direct dial telephone, free internet connection (free Wi-Fi).

The cuisine at Vittoria is an expert blend of seasonal flavours and fragrances. The many tempting dishes, can be relished in either the monumental "Vittoria" dining room where you can enjoy a delightful lunch under the vaults of a majestic frescoed ceiling, or in the summer, on the open-air "Bosquet" terrace, overlooking the Gulf where you can glimpse the mauve shades of Vesuvius through the baluster.

Five acres of private garden with citrus and olive trees also contribute to make the Excelsior Vittoria a unique hotel. There is a large swimming pool in the grounds, with an orange grove nearby, where guests can bathe and relax in the Mediterranean sun. Built in a converted greenhouse located in the hotel’s garden, the holistic centre La Serra has been designed as a place for the pleasure of renewing indulgence.
From the main terrace, a private lift descends directly to the pier in the harbour below, where sight-seers can easily hire a motor boat for an excursion along the beautiful coastline of the peninsula, or take a trip to Capri, Naples and Ischia on one of the many jet boat and hydrofoil services, which operate daily.

With its unique charm and history, and excellent meeting facilities (capacity up to 250) the Excelsior Vittoria offers a perfect venue for guests looking to combine work and leisure.
