Find your vantage point along the Amalfi Coast at Hotel Mediterraneo Sorrento. Once a private cliffside villa and still family-owned, this 60-room, elegantly understated hotel boasts iconic views over the Bay of Naples — a panorama that sweeps from Mount Vesuvius to the island of Capri. Practice yoga, unwind in the stone-hewn spa, or take a dip in the pool surrounded by fragrant lemon gardens; a rock elevator connects guests directly to the beach below. Sorrento’s original rooftop bar serves golden-hour aperitivi, Mediterranean cuisine, and DJ sets, while Vesuvio Panoramic Restaurant offers a contemporary interpretation of Campanian flavours

Hotel Mediterraneo Sorrento

This is a whole different story...

Built in 1912 as Antonietta Lauro’s seaside mansion, Hotel Mediterraneo Sorrento is a five-star lifestyle retreat where heritage and contemporary design meet. Reimagined by Italian architect Manuela Mannino (THDP), the hotel blends Mediterranean elegance with sculptural Italian furnishings, local craftsmanship, and views that stretch across the Bay of Naples.

Days at the Mediterraneo unfold with lively, modern ritual: yoga among lemon trees, music by the pool, pizza-making demonstrations, and aperitivo rituals at Vista Skybar & Dining, Sorrento’s first and most iconic seafront rooftop. Fine dining at Vesuvio Panoramic Restaurant celebrates Campania’s culinary heritage, paired with a curated selection of Italian wines.

From 2025, the hotel expands its cultural program with artisan workshops - sandal-making, mozzarella, fine wine and seasonal cooking - enriching its identity as a contemporary coastal home with a vibrant spirit. Quietly sustainable and deeply connected to the community through Fondazione Sorrento, the Mediterraneo offers elegance, warmth, and modern glamour

Sorrento is waiting for you, the famous and sought-after destination for high-class tourism since the eighteenth century, when it was included in the Grand Tour, the journey undertaken by young aristocrats in the various European countries to complete their education.

However, its history is much older, dating back to the Roman era, as evidenced by the ruins of the Villa di Pollione, the secret beach of Regina Giovanna, or the nearby Herculaneum and Pompeii, that you can easily get to and visit.

Today Sorrento is a tourist town overlooking the Gulf of Naples, famous for its panoramic views that are among the most beautiful in the world, for the historic centre with its picturesque shops, and for its excellent food and wine.

Sorrento is also the perfect base to discover all the beauties of the Campania region, from the Amalfi Coast to Naples and, with only thirty minutes by yacht or hydrofoil, the mythical island of Capri.

How does this compare to other programs, like through AMEX Fine Hotels & Resorts, or Chase Edit?

Using a hotel's own VIP program may provide higher upgrade priority, additional VIP benefits and promotional rate offers, and a direct relationship with the hotel for special requests. Rialto offers more VIP hotels than any credit card program. In addition, Chase Edit rates can be substantially more expensive as they rarely run promotions whereas AMEX rates are often comparable but do not offer programs such as Upgrade at Booking.
