The Restaurant at Bellevue Syrene

"The hotel has two restaurants and 50 beautiful rooms, which are either sleek and modern or baroque and elaborate in design with balconies overlooking the Gulf of Naples"

"The main restaurant, Mimmo Iodice, has panoramic vistas over the bay and a truly tempting menu, or you can enjoy elegant meals under the clifftop wisteria pergola"

"Breakfast is also included as is Happy Hour Wine and lite bites! In the town of Sorrento there are secret gardens, lemon groves, a museum, great shopping, and fabulous restaurants"

"The former restaurant, Il Don Giovanni, is now Mimmo Jodice, a stunning, starched-white modern room with windows framing beautiful bay vistas"

"I doubt the menu has changed much since 1947, but since they serve the freshest possible fritto misto (the fish are too small to be worth freezing) along with, for Italy, unusually good restaurant bread and jugs of glugging bianco – who wants innovation? And, just beyond the threshold, a thrilling confirmation of the rightness of it all: a black and white photograph, taken in 1955, of Sophia Loren in mozzarella-tight shorts, taking a break at this very spot from filming Dino Risi’s Pane, Amore e… Loren said everything she did owed a debt to spaghetti, but I think other factors were involved"
