A delightful restaurant-turned-boutique-hotel, perched above Sorrento's harbour, with 12 immaculate and artful rooms This place is cool. In fact it's the coolest place we visited in southern Italy, and one of the best small hotels we've seen anywhere in the Med. What makes it so special? The 180º sea views for starters, which you can enjoy lying in bed, thanks to huge picture windows. The artistic detail in the rooms for seconds (think nichefuls of coral, funkily-tiled wetrooms, brightly painted model boats set against boldly coloured walls). The vast sun terrace, where you can easily spend 2 hours over a healthy and delicious breakfast. And let's not forget the setting: plunging views over the fishing harbour and mirror-still seas of Sorrento, with the volcanic cone of Vesuvius breaking the horizon. You're just outside town, away from the summer crowds but 10-15 minutes' walk from its bustling restaurants, bars, shops and quayside. Hydrofoils whisk you to Capri, Positano, Amalfi, even Naples for the day; the train is handy for Pompeii and Vesuvius. Sorrento is the best single base for exploring this area, and La Minervetta is the stylish, intimate and immaculately-cut gem in its crown. read more and book at i-escape
