Hotel Cristina

Hotel Cristina stands on Via Privata Rubinacci 6 in Sant'Agnello, a few hundred metres east of the centre of Sorrento on the Sorrento Peninsula in Campania, Italy. The hotel is rated about 9.2 out of 10 by Booking.com guests, and its listed rating is 4.6. Its position away from the busiest part of Sorrento gives a calmer setting, and a shuttle service links the property with the town, which reduces the need for taxis. Rooms are varied for a mid-range hotel: Classic Sea View, Classic Quadruple, Standard Quadruple Garden View, Standard Room, Family Suite and a separate Villa Cristina, which makes the property workable for families and small groups as well as couples. Rates start from about EUR 157 per night. The main leisure feature is a panoramic swimming pool, supported by a fitness centre. Dining is provided by an on-site restaurant and a lounge bar, so guests can take dinner and drinks without leaving the grounds, which is practical after day trips. Parking is available, useful for visitors renting a car for the Amalfi Coast. The service character is family-friendly and leisure-oriented rather than business-focused, with the shuttle and the multi-bed rooms as the clearest signs of that. Sant'Agnello has a Circumvesuviana station for trains to Naples and Pompeii, and Sorrento harbour has ferries to Capri and Amalfi Coast towns. The hotel's website is hotelcristinasorrento.it and its phone number is +39 081 878 3562. Summer is the best period for the pool and sea-view rooms, while spring and autumn bring lower rates and milder weather for sightseeing.
