A breathtaking location overlooking the bay and Vesuvius. Whilst the hotel was on a main road, the location for us was perfect. Out of town, on the cliff top with the most beautiful of views and a great shuttle bus that took you to Seiano beach for the ferries and to Vico Equense for the train. Both places also have plenty of choice for restaurants and are much quieter than neighbouring Sorrento. We adored both places. The staff were all fab - attentive, helpful and delivered the best customer service. We were a group of 4, and a couple of us found the bed a little hard. We mentioned it and a topper was immediately provided. The reception ensured we had a local pick up for the airport without us asking and Maria at the restaurant had a beautiful personal touch - nothing was too much trouble and we all felt the staff were just stars. A fab pool, not massive but adequate to do a few lengths and cool down with a lovely lounge area, again overlooking Vesuvius Great breakfast with quality light lunches and evening meals Clean spotless rooms A wonderful sanctuary that was a pleasure to come back to after a busy day seeing the sites. We loved the place and all of us would return

Stayed here for the views from terrace. Grounds and garden beautiful. Lovely old but modernised building. Great breakfast and food at the restaurant. Lovely rooms and clean. Staff helpful and friendly. One staff member in particular stood out in being very welcoming and attending to your regular favourites at breakfast eg. Cappuccino. Thank you. Staff able to arrange day trips to Portfolio and Almalfi which were enjoyable.

Decided to stay for views. Location not great. On a busy winding and partially unlit road. Not recommended to walk at night. Information indicated a shuttle bus to and from nearby station. However, this was an external arrangement and very limited. Caused us to walk from station one night due to local train delays. Staff had tried to arrange a taxi but due to delays made this difficult. Great hotel, food and staff but location without a shuttle not recommended without a car. I would also check about stairs in room as room offered had a mezzanine to bed and down to bathroom at night. Not suitable for us. Staff were able to change our room but it then had a small porthole window.

Lovely hotel with breathtaking views. The layout of our room wasn’t what we expected however it was clean and comfortable. There was a good variety of food at breakfast, both cooked and continental. Staff were very helpful and attentive.

The location of the hotel is a little way out of Vico Equense so be prepared to plan your day around the timings of the free shuttle bus. The road the hotel is on is extremely dangerous and not suitable for anybody with mobility issues. It would be much more safe if the shuttle bus dropped customers off in the hotel grounds or at least on the same side of the hotel.

Hotel was beautiful and the staff were so friendly. The food in the restaurant was delicious. We were offered an upgrade when we arrived and our room was unbelievable wit a view which was out of this world. The only negative thing was we couldn't walk to the train station because of the dangerous roads and we couldn't find a beach that was suppose to he near,otherwise everything was beautiful. The view was breathtaking 😎😘

That you couldn't walk to the next town because of dangerous roads.

The staff is exceptional, the property is somewhat like a boutique hotel with plenty of amenities and a gorgeous view from rooms and restaurant and pool area. The food is also exceptional. It is situated near Vico a little north of Sorrento and ideal if you want to be in this region, but not in the city. We would absolutely stay again.

The facility is located on the coastal road and can be a bit busy while enjoying the magnificent view from the room’s rooftop terrace. Just mentioning this for those that would require a much quieter place.

The hotel has the most friendly and helpful staff I have experienced in a while. The view from the room was exactly as advertised (stunning views of Vesuvius and the Bay of Naples) and, despite being located on the main road to Sorrento, the room was quiet and comfortable. Breakfast has a good range of fresh products, included handmade baked goods, and is taken on a terrace with amazing views. There is a free shuttle bus that takes you into Vico Equense from where you can catch the train to Naples and Sorrento. The whole vibe of the hotel is really nice.

The hotel is wonderful! Located in a beautiful mountain village with an extraordinary view of the Bay of Naples. Simply a fairy tale! The best thing that happened to us was the people. The staff was amazing🩷. Every morning we were greeted with a smile, help whenever we needed it! We are grateful for every day spent at the Torre Barbara hotel and we will definitely be happy to come back! A wonderful place🤌🏻🍀😍!

Property offered amenities necessary for pleasant stay. Staff was very helpful. Maria was present everywhere at all food services and was very friendly and helpful. The front desk was very helpful in setting up excursions and assisting with transportation questions and needs.

It is in a bit of an awkward location. There isn’t anything that is safely walkable. They do run a complimentary shuttle to beach and into town to include the train station but times are limited.

Great terrace - amazing views - good size rooms - free shuttle bus - good choice of breakfast - great food in general / fantastic staff very helpful all of them! Great base to explore other areas from - close to rail network - easy to get to Pompeii, Vesuvius, Herculaneum and Sorrento!

Hard to get anywhere without the shuttle bus - roadside not beach front- website advertises 400m from beach - this is downwards - beach inaccessible by foot- however free shuttle bus is every hour. Rooms do not have a private balcony - only outside space is the shared terrace which is where people dine. No where to dry out wet clothes - these are small gripes as we loved it.

Absolutely loved it. The staff went out of their way to help big thank to Sara at the reception (organising a hire car) but also the lady at the restaurant always very friendly. Whilst the area itself is much quieter than positano and the Amalfi which in the summer gets overwhelmingly busy. however for the experience there is a free bus shuttle that takes you to the marina and the main town in Vico Equense q and can do a day tour on the public ferry. It's fun!
