in Meta, but they were only obvious during the last few days of our stay, partly because it was quite early in the season and partly due to the unseasonably wet weather they were not always open. The food could have been hotter, as could the plates. If you don't like pasta, tomatoes or cheese, Italy is not the destination for you. Meals were buffet style, (not as described by Tui) which suited us, and there was a good choice of mainly Italian and continental dishes, with just a nod to the British palate -obviously a number of pasta dishes, but always meat and fish dishes and chips. A kettle is available in the room and tea, coffee and milk are replenished daily. Our room was kept spotless throughout our stay, towels were changed daily and bedding changed during the week. All staff, from the front reception, through waiters and bar staff, to the cleaners were extremely friendly and helpful. Meta also has a railway station and is on the Sorrento/Naples line. The hotel also offers a shuttle bus, but you need to book this. It is situated at the bottom of a steep road, but the local bus stop is about 200 metres away (through the tunnel) and there is a frequent service into Sorrento. True, as with all areas of the hospitality sector, it has suffered through Covid, but is now undergoing redecoration and repair. The hotel is not modern and bland, but has a certain faded elegance and is reminiscent of a bygone age. It is well worth paying for a sea view room. The hotel is at the foot of the cliff and has a fabulous view across the bay of Naples towards the island of Ischia and the Marina Piccolo in Sorrento. We've just returned from a lovely week at Mar Hotel Alimuri, Meta, close to Sorrento.
