Grand Hotel Excelsior Vittoria

Perched atop the ancient cliffs of Sorrento, the Grand Hotel Excelsior Vittoria has been a beacon of Italian elegance and hospitality since its founding in 1834. Owned and operated by the same family for generations, the hotel is set amidst lush Mediterranean gardens and offers sweeping views over the Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius. Behind its grand 19th-century façade, guests discover a world of classic charm, vaulted ceilings, and frescoed halls.

The hotel features 84 individually decorated rooms and suites, each exuding timeless sophistication. Its enchanting setting served as the backdrop for Billy Wilder’s 1972 romantic comedy Avanti!, further cementing its status as a cinematic icon. Guests can indulge in refined Neapolitan cuisine at the Michelin-starred Terrazza Bosquet, relax by the pool, or stroll through lemon-scented gardens. With its rich history, breathtaking views, and unparalleled elegance, the Grand Hotel Excelsior Vittoria remains a jewel of the Amalfi Coast.
