Hotel Caravel

Hotel Caravel is a four-star hotel at Corso Marion Crawford 61 in Sant'Agnello, east of the centre of Sorrento on the Sorrento Peninsula in Campania, Italy. The street is named after the novelist Francis Marion Crawford, who lived in the area, and it runs through a residential stretch of the coast road. The hotel has about 92 renovated rooms, offered as Double, Twin, Triple and Family Rooms, with sound-proofing and air conditioning, an important feature on a busy road. Rates start from about EUR 165 per night and the rating is about 4.3 out of 5. A swimming pool provides the main leisure facility, and the hotel runs a free shuttle into Sorrento, which removes the need for taxis or parking in the centre. A restaurant and a bar serve guests on site. The size of the property places it between a boutique hotel and a larger resort, with the practical service character of a leisure hotel for couples, families and groups. Sant'Agnello's Circumvesuviana station gives access to Naples and Pompeii, and Sorrento's harbour, reached by the shuttle, links to Capri and the Amalfi Coast. Contact details are not published in the listing, so reservations are generally made through online booking channels. Summer is the busy season, when the pool is used most, while spring and autumn offer milder weather for walking and excursions. Visitors who value a pool, a shuttle and quiet rooms over a central address are the best match for this hotel.
