Myself and my husband held our wedding in hotel hermitage in august this year and we were extremely impressed with it. The location of the hotel is perfect, in a quiet area with outstanding views of the sea and cilento national park. The hotel has plenty of amenities...football pitches, crazy golf, large swimming pool and childs pool with slide. Most of our wedding guests stayed in the hotel and were equally impressed.
The food served in the hotel was of top quality, so much so that many of the guests changed to full board after sampling their first meal. The staff were extremely friendly and did everything they could to make ourselves and other guests happy.
The wedding day itself was fantastic, it was organised by 'Amore Weddings' in Ireland who did a fantastic job. We could not be more grateful to them or the hermitage for giving us such a superb time.
We will most definately return to this hotel, as will many of our guests. It is a perfect location for couples or family holiday as well as the perfect wedding venue.

We stayed here for the last week of our honeymoon. The staff were very welcoming, helpful and friendly and really made a fuss of us. Nothing was too much trouble.

The rooms were clean and tidy and we had a balcony with a fabulous view. The private beach was very busy and we only went to the beach one day because of this. However, we were traveling in the middle of the Italian summer holidays so everywhere was pretty hectic.

Castellabate is a beautiful hilltop village and a pleasant place to spend an afternoon/evening. It was very quiet when we were there and a good get away to avoid the crowds. From San Marco you can also get the ferry to Capri (about 2 hours). The Greek temples at Paestum are within easy reach and there is public transport from San Marco to get you there.

Overall we loved our stay and were glad that we chose to spend a relaxing week here at the end of our honeymoon!

My husband and I stayed at the Hotel Hermitage for 5 days this June in room 24. The room was on the top floor and had two small balconies. The room was comfortable and spotlessly clean, however our shower was particularilly small. We also stayed during a heatwave and the air conditioning was struggling.

The hotel is aproximately a two hour drive from Naples and is located on the edge of a medieval village set within the Cilento National Park. The restaurant, bar, terrace and pool all have breathtaking views.

The hotel is very welcoming, the staff extremely helpful and the hotel owner is fantastic. When we visited there were mainly older couples and Italian families staying at the hotel.

The hotel offers a good continental break fast with fantastic coffee. The evening meals are fair, however we ate out most evenings. I recommend the Bellavista which is located behind the hotel car park the views are stunning and the food excellent.

The area the hotel is situated in is quite touristy and a little scruffy but absoultely charming with lots of traditional italian shops and cheap clothing/ shoe shops. There are also a lot of local markets in the area.

The hotel operates a courtesy bus to a nearby beach and town which is very busy but definately worth visiting.

We loved the hotel and the staff in particular made it a very enjoyable stay.

Hotel Hermitage was portrayed as a 4 star property with all amenities to make one very comfortable. We had booked a suite with a view of the sea; a suite should mean a bedroom plus a sitting room/area. We were given a very small room--so small that 2 people could not pass at the end of the bed. We complained and the answer was " because you have a view and a balcony, we call it a suite." We had paid plenty and I might add that we had to wire the room charge from the U.S. to Italy before our arrival. The bathroom was tiny; the shower stall was so small that if one dropped his soap, forget it. One could not bend over to even wash his feet. The doors of the shower stall stuck and didn't want to slide. The free standing closet was rickety; clothes hangers were odds and ends that past guests had left behind. We were lucky to have a view. Most of the rooms face the parking lot. While we were there for 3 nights, the hotel hosted two very loud parties out on the pool deck beneath our room. The dining room staff was not professional. I had to almost argue with the manager to see a menu. (I like to know exactly what I'm ordering and what I'm paying.) The only thing wonderful about this property is the view; unfortunately only a half dozen rooms have a view. Be careful when considering this hotel. Ask plenty of questions.
