The hostel is great!! Its is cery clean, facilities are great and they organize tours for you! The staff is very good and they are very kind to help you with tips or what to do during your stay! The only problem is that the wifi dont work very good in all the rooms, but in the bar works perfect so its not a big problem! Everything else its perfect!

Had a great time here. Amazing place. Feels like a 4 star hotel. The roof top terrace has great views. Located in a nice area not far from Sorrento which is good because you are out of the masses of tourists. Would stay here again for sure.

I was in a 5 bed female dorm room with an en-suite. It was so clean and spacious! The only thing was that I was on the top bunk and it was quite a climb to the top. Also the party music was a little loud of the evening so bring earplugs if you are as light sleeper. Overall enjoyed it is more like a hotel than a hostel which is nice. I still can't get over how amazing the bathroom was!

Biggest downfall was not having correct directions listed on the HostelWorld booking. Nowhere does it say to get off the San Agnello Circumvesuviana stop, so the assumption we made, based on the directions, was to get off at the Sorrento stop. Then we had to take a 20 euro cab over to the hostel, which is otherwise a solid 35 minute walk from Sorrento's town center. Overall, though, the modern vibe and drink/food discount made up for that. We had a great two person room.

Seven has amazing facilities! They are more like a hotel than a hostel. Huge bar/ restaurant area with excellent food, an amazing rooftop terrace with breathtaking views and very spacious rooms, cleaned every day! The staff go out of their way to be helpful and are just genuinely kind! The only downside is that its a 25 minute walk outside of Sorrento or 1 train stop. They had a great party on Friday night with both guests and locals. Would definitely recommend this hostel and stay again!

Nice, modern hostel, spotlessly clean. Breakfast basic but fine. View from the roof terrace is fantastic. Manageress was very helpful, other staff were rather less professional. However, this hostel is not in Sorrento, but the next town along - fine if you don't mind walking or the short train journey. Also, the ground floor is a bar/club with VERY loud music starting at 11pm some nights, even weekdays. Just one door between dorm and DJ - doesn't make for a good nights sleep! I left a day early.

Clean rooms, excellent beds. Bathrooms weren't always clean. Staff were a bit hit and miss. Beautiful building with great deck on top, reasonable location from Sorrento. The downfall was at two nights of our stay they had functions downstairs and the music was LOUD!! I have stayed above pubs, clubs etc but this was the worst! Sounded like the speakers were in our room! Didn't have a great hostel feel - they need to decide if they are a restaurant, hostel or function space.

Excellent hotel room. We stayed in the 10 bed female deluxe dorm. Great new rooms with big bunk beds, large bathroom with three showers and three toilets. We were here in the low season so there was no atmosphere and no tours were available. The restaurant is excellent with great food at cheap prices. The bar staff were very friendly. Would love to stay here during summer - beautiful surrounds and amazing countryside! Very close to big supermarket.

Good location near the train station, only a short hop through to Pompeii. Staff were friendly but not necessarily helpful, wifi didn't work for anyone the whole 4 day stay. The internet on their public computers was patchy at best, constantly on and off. Breakfast was better than average but they had packed it away early on my last morning. Worst part of the whole stay was the loud parties/functions on the last two nights keeping the entire dorm awake until late into the night. Not recommended.

I suspect that this will be a great place to stay in the high season, but it was a little quiet when I was there in March. I ended up with a ten bed room with three showers to myself! That aside, there is a great bar downstairs with live music which lots of locals tend to come along to as well so there is plenty of entertainment. Its a pretty flash place, but to be honest it is a little out of town. When returning to sorrento with a heavy backpack I opted for a more central hostel.

Very nice, newly remodeled hostel. Breakfast isn't much (cereal, croissants, coffee), but it is included. Everything is very clean and the staff is quite friendly. Wifi only works in the bar/restaurant area, which is annoying. It's located in the town over from Sorrento, but it's a quick train ride away. Overall, I'd recommend!

Amazing hostel!!! Could easily pass for a 4 star hotel. Really clean, knowledgable staff, yummy pastries for breakfast. Bar/restaurant downstairs makes for a really easy access to food/drinks. The terrace was unfortunately closed due to winter season, but looks like it would be amazing in the summer. The only downside was lack of Internet in the rooms and the location. Nothing really around and the town centre is a fair bit away.

A nice place, and definitely extremely clean. The woman in charge was super nice and helpful. Our only complaint was that the wifi was down for our entire stay. The hostel had working computers to check email, but as students who specifically brought laptops to work on projects, it became increasingly frustrating as the days progressed.

Friday and Saturday nights were difficult to sleep nights as there was recorded music til late on Friday and a live band on Saturday playing just below the rooms. Ideal place for Sunday through Thursday. Good directions to the hostel and easy to find.

This hostel was more like a dorm-style hotel than it is a hostel. I stayed in the 12 person room, but only had 2 other roommates at a time due to off-season travel, but it seemed roomy. Beds are firm and don't squeak, lockers are provided (need own lock), and hostel is clean. No room #s, just room names. Breakfast is tastier than most other places (croissants!), but another hosteller mentioned the lack of coffee. Location is not in the center of Sorrento, but walkable. Excellent terrace views!

This was one of my best hostel experiences ever. I wish just that they work more on their breakfast. Nevertheless, it definitely worth the money.
