Aequa Hotel

Awesome location of the hotel- only 3 min walk to Vico Equense train station. Trains can take you to Sorrento(20min) and Naples(45min). The beach is down the mountain, reachable by car/ scooter, but on foot be prepared to walk a around 20-25min just down. Fantastic personnel. Nicest people. Super helpful. Very good pool and small amount of rooms/guests accordingly. Affordable prices for room/pool service. Fantastic outlooks on Vesuvius. Pompei is in 25 min by train from the hotel. Excellent wines and food they offer. Ideal for vacations without children. P.S. breakfast was good enough to kill the first hunger. But do not expect continental selection you normally see in 5*.

It would not be my 1st choice when it comes to relaxation place. The thing is, the hotel gets offered as a venue for communion celebrations for locals every weekend. Normally, it is a party with music and dancing approx. until 23:00-00:30. Which is nothing like piece and quite. However, if you are higher that 2nd floor, it is manageable, but not ideal.

Hotel is kind of boutique hotel. Very well maintained in such a great position with incredible view. Staff are extremely nice and everything worked perfectly.

Improvement in the breakfast, offering more local products and have more variety between savory and sweets would make this hotel one of the best in the area.

It is local red close to train station, town centre and restaurants. The pool area was kept very clean and we could always get beds and an umbrella. The room was air conditioned too.

Nothing.

Location is absolutely perfect and the staff is really friendly

Rooms could do with some renovation - especially the bathroom and shower. I stayed in one of the old rooms

Perfect location at a 3 minute walk from the train station. We had a super spacious room with amazing sea view from our balcony. The pool was very clean and spacious enough. Towels for the pool are provided by the hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

The breakfast was a little limited and the same every morning. Additional items could be requested, we asked for fresh fruit every morning which the staff was happy to provide us with.

The hotel is such great value and a fantastic location in which to explore Amalfi and Sorrento without being in the tourist swarm. Pool is lovely and the views are amazing. Surrounded by great shopping and restaurants. The staff were all absolutely lovely - they were helpful and attentive. Also, as a queer couple travelling in Italy, it can sometimes be awkward on check in when being same sex and insisting on a double room. But no such awkwardness here - just unquestioning acceptance.

The lift was a bit scary! The lighting in the rooms is all bright white which I don’t like, but I appreciate that’s a personal preference.

The views from the room were amazing and it had a great terrace to enjoy the views and some wine. We woke up to views of Vesuvius and Vico Equense every morning. It was extremely close to great dinner options. The staff were extremely accommodating, friendly, and helpful. The walk to the train station is about 5 minutes uphill from the station, downhill to it. Short train ride to Sorrento, 30ish minutes to Pompeii, ~1 hour plus to Herculaneum.

The shower was a little moody, but it’s a humid climate, so hard to avoid.

The location was perfect - central and scenic. A wonderful view from the pool. Breakfast was varied and tasty, and staff very friendly.

We had a two-bedroom family suite, and the second bedroom for the kids was so small there was no space on the floor for their bags, let alone sit at the desk. No bedside tables or bedside lamps for them. The room is sold for for people but the balcony only has space and chairs for two, which means we could not enjoy the view together in the evening.

The location of the hotel was lovely, so was the availability of parking. The hotel had spectacular views and a fabulous pool area - the sea is hundreds of meters below and a good walk down!! The staff was very helpful, breakfast was lovely. All in all a really good stay!

N/A

Simple comfy room. Check-in staff. Location. Stunning views across Bay of Naples. 5 minutes walk from station. On 3rd floor was an amazing terrace, with even better views. Swimming pool fantastic, clean, simple. Lovely gardens. Did not want to leave.

Breakfast is tired. Presentation poor. Coffee not good. But you can also see offering better coffee to locals, who are not having the inclusive breakfast. I’ve stayed in lots of hotels in Italy, where breakfast is fantastic. Mid range hotels in Viareggio, do great breakfasts simply. Provide smaller pastries, but variety. Fresh fruit, some local yogurt. Better cheese selection. It meant I did not bother dining in at all
