We stayed three nights at the Torre Barbara to explore the Naples area and the Amalfi coast. We had a mixed experience as we stayed during the busy Summer holiday period and we felt that all of Italy was visiting the Amalfi region. We tried to visit the small villages such as Positano only to find no parking spaces available.... More

We stayed at the hotel twice during the last 4 years because we liked the distance from all places of interest around (Pompei,Sorrento,Capri,Napoli,Salerno,Costiera Amalfiera etc) and we really enjoyed.We were offered maybe the best rooms at the top front and the top corner at reasonable prices with breathtaking view of Golf of Napoli,we did not like to leave the room...

We stayed at Torre Barbara as a base from which to explore Sorrento, Capri, Naples and the Amalfi Coast by car. Upon arrival, I couldn't imagine where to stop the car as the villa is perched directly above the busy road. A sharp bend led up a steep driveway and into the hotel's spacious car park. Our plan was to... More

We booked after reading TA reviews and were very disappointed. The hotel photo of the pool is very misleading. it is in fact a smallish plunge pool above ground and as we like to swim it was totally unsuitable. Also the pool area is very untidy with some broken loungers and torn cushions. It had an air of neglect about... More

I stayed here in September 2010 and had a lovely time. Yes the location is a bit isolated and once you're back at the hotel you're more or less there for the night, but location wise it's not bad at all. The hotel runs a daily mini-bus service to the train station down the road and the staff were more... More

We booked a family quad room here for our summer holiday and were not disappointed. Lovely hotel and with very warm and friendly staff, I would definitely return. We stayed in Room 302 which has a view across to Vesuvius and had a mezzanine level with the (HUGE) double bed up some stairs above the bathroom. The kids beds (or... More

Stayed in this hotel for 4 nights. We found the hotel to be very clean and with one of the best views we have ever seen over the Bay of Naples. Sat on the terrace each night watching the sunset whilst waiting for dinner to be served in the restaurant, where we found the staff to be very helpful and... More

Torre Barbara is a small and friendly hotel worth a visit. The hotel is located on the winding road between Pompei and Sorrento. Some noice from the road below could be registred but we were not disturbed very much. The hotel is simply but tastefully furnished. Lovely garden with a wonderful view of Vesuvius. Rooms were clean and proper. Beds... More

We have just returned from a fantastic holiday in Italy and stayed at The Torre Barbara which was absolutely wonderful. Our room and all the public areas were well furnished and spotlessly clean. All the staff were very friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Taking breakfast on their beautiful terrace with uninterrupted views of the bay of Naples... More
