| HOTEL AMENITIES & SERVICES: |
The Grand Hotel EXCELSIOR VITTORIA is notable not least for its private gardens, which lead from the main square of Sorrento to the Hotel entrance. An immediate feeling of peace and tranquillity is experienced as the town centre is left behind and the visitor discovers a place unlike any other hotel.
Five acres of luxuriant grounds full of beautiful Mediterranean plants and flowers, the gardens are an important part of Sorrento, containing a number of very old specimens and magnificent blooms. Guests can enjoy a stroll and admire the plants, or simply relax in the shade of the trees and take in the unparalleled beauty of the Bay of Naples. And with no shortage of different paths to follow, this is also the ideal place to take a jog or do a few keep-fit exercises in the open air.
A number of original Roman columns were found at the time when the Hotel was being built, and these can still be seen in the gardens of the EXCELSIOR VITTORIA. Other items of interest uncovered are exhibited in Sorrento’s Museo Correale.
The gardens of the EXCELSIOR VITTORIA gratify not only the senses of sight and smell, but of taste as well. The citrus groves still provide most of the oranges and lemons consumed daily in the Hotel, and the old olive trees are currently the source of the fine extra virgin olive oil used in the two Hotel restaurants.
Also situated in the gardens of the EXCELSIOR VITTORIA is the swimming pool where guests can relax and bathe in the perfect setting, and enjoy good food sitting in the orange grove nearby. |

Dining at the EXCELSIOR VITTORIA is an exciting experience. The Chef offers a selection of delicious local dishes and Haute Cuisine, with the emphasis always on fresh food in season. A vegetarian menu is also available.
The two Hotel restaurants are very different from one another. The main restaurant is the imposing "Vittoria" dining room with its original decorated ceilings of the early 19th century (the restaurant is air-conditioned). The "Bosquet" is a more intimate dining room, at its best in spring and summer when diners can enjoy the view from the beautiful terrace overlooking the Bay of Naples.
Once a week during summer, a candle-lit buffet dinner is served to all guests on the panoramic "Vittoria Terrace". After dinner, with a live orchestra playing romantic melodies and the lights of Naples twinkling across the Bay, even the most reluctant dancer will surely take a turn on the floor.
The unique and elegant dining rooms and terraces of the EXCELSIOR VITTORIA can also be booked for banquets, private functions and Gala Dinners. |
Meetings and conferences held at the EXCELSIOR VITTORIA are permeated immediately with a sense of quality and exclusiveness that is especially rewarding for delegates.
The meeting rooms are all tastefully decorated with frescoes and paintings so that delegates feel at ease while working.
The Hotel offers six different theatre style meeting rooms seating from 30 to 250. Audiovisual equipment of every kind can be supplied on request. |
