Going to the Hotel Flora? What you need to know is: 1) Don't get a room at the front of the hotel overlooking a busy road and petrol station. A room on the side is good and a room at the back with a view over the pool is likely to cost you a bit more.
2) You'll get a great view over the sea from the Dining room which is at the top of the hotel.
3) The best staff are without doubt in the dining room. They're cheerful and friendly without ever being overbearing. Moreover they are really organized and get the job done well. I'm a vegetarian and on half board I was well catered for. The food is plentiful and of really good quality for a place dealing with large numbers.
4) The rooms are very clean. Linen changed every day or two.
5) Turn right out of the hotel and within a minute or two you are in the centre of town. You're on the main road anyway - that's why you don't want a room at the front of the hotel.
6) The railway station is less than five minutes walk from the hotel.......

Was rather let down by the hotel in general, felt more like an easy target for money than a guest,sunbeds were 5 euros to hire, no gym or sporting room, bar prices way too high, service can be varied.
Rooms dated with old fashioned lighting fitments and wood inlay furniture, needs a revamp, rating of a four star too generous, maybe 3 at a push, food not catering for the basic eater, can be very fancy and includes a lot of seafood, staff quite offish and a bit patronising.
Wouldnt go again, all show and no substance.

Enjoyed our holiday at Gran Flora. Disappointed at location across from garage, but after getting used to noise it was quite entertaining. Food ok. Reception staff not very helpful but the waiters in dining room made up for them. Loved Sorrento

This was our first visit to this part of Italy and fell head over heels with Sorrento and its beauty. The hotel grand flora was excellent; the food was very good and plentiful with a staggering buffet breakfast which lasted us all day. The waiters were a brilliant blend but always very friendly and attentive. I would have no hesitation in recommending the flora to anyone wanting excellent hotel. Two points that for us was a bit disappointing was there wasn’t any entertainment in the hotel at night and we would have liked a room with a balcony but as we booked last minute this was the luck of the draw

I have just returned form a holiday in Sorrento having thourally enjoyed it and that Hotel Flora played a large part in making that happen. The hotel is very welcoming and give efficent service. The staff obviousley enjoy working there and this comes across making you feel valued, and special. We were only there for a week but I would definatley go back there, there is so much to do, and the staff would make you feel like you were comeing home.
The Hotel is situated close to the center and the walking was not a problem as it was surpisingly mainly on the flat untill you wonder down to the port or up to the Tuesday market. Which we did and it looked worse than it actually was, if walking is a problem then the bus service is adequate.I was in a party of three ladys and we felt perfectly safe wondering around at any time of the day or evening. There arn't any touts pushing there establishments on you, it is hassle free to wonder freely.
I have read reviews about Hotel Flora,......
