The hotel is nice but staff is not accommodating, my cloth was ruined and I have pictures of the day before and they said well. Some wall moist in the bathroom. Inconveniently far they were fixing the road and you cannt pass between 9 to 5 you are stuck also the bus is almost in front but staff don’t know how late they run. The restaurant staff, chef the food and the bartender and the bar great and excellent manners. I wouldn’t stay because the front desk leaves early and it’s far with very limited wifi and no taxis pass by. Unless you have a car and want to stay far out and loose some morning and return time not great location to take ferry’s and go around amalfi coast

A wonderful stay!
We could only stay one night but this was a beautiful oasis of a spot. The pool and bar was very nice and quiet. The owner checked us in and suggested a spot for dinner. We were able to walk there. It was exactly what I needed after over 24 hours of travel! We ended the night with wine by the pool sitting on the side with feet in the pool. The breakfast the next morning was also fabulous as well. My only complaint was that I could only stay one night!
This picture shows that each room has an outdoor area for  relaxing.  The pool picture I took was too large to post but the pool is beautiful and wonderful!
This is where we ate on our first night.  We walked from the hotel to this beautiful quaint beach area.
The food and the view was exceptional!  This was recommended by the owners of the hotel.  It was fabulous!

It’s a bit far from the port and taxi is ridiculously expensive but there is a bus which stops every twenty minutes right in front of the place and you can go to the city center for less than two euros riding that . My complaints of any are about the fact there is no hot water in the shower. It’s barely Luke warm . We told the manager and nothing really changes although they promised to take care of it . After going around all day in the sun and sweating and dust laden I really wanted a hot shower but that did not happen . Other than that every thing else is good but far from any attractions or restaurants

Our only regret is that we did not book this place for twice as long. It is beautiful and peaceful, and our host, Walter, arranged dinner for us at local restaurants where we had some fabulous fresh fish and octopus. Breakfast was at Melrose and everything we had was homemade and delicious! Everyone at MelRose was friendly and approachable. We would highly recommend!

Property was extremely clean comfortable and scenic. A great relaxing way to unwind for three days after hectic travels from Rome. The location was a great launch pad to Sorrento, Capri and Naples. The staff were so kind, hospitable and ensured our arrangements for ferry’s, and excursion were taken care of. And the breakfast we received was delicious!

I can’t rate Melrose Relais highly enough! My husband and I are just back from a two week break. We stayed in the junior suite which has a private terrace with views over Capri and Vesuvius! Fabulous! Walter and his family were amazing. He booked boat trips to Capri and Amalfi for us and helped us with a bus tour to Pompeii and Vesuvius. All 3 were excellent. The local bus between Massa Lubrense and Sorrento is very easy to use -2 euros each- so we used that for day trips and eating out at night. Breakfast was included and lovely. On the days when we chilled beside the pool we had fantastic lunches from the Bistro and cocktails from the pool bar! Nothing was too much trouble and hopefully it won’t be our last visit!

A tranquil oasis on the Amalfi coats.
The hotel is a little bit of tranquility, on the Amalfi coast. The family run hotel was an excellent base, only a short journey into the heart of Sorrento, (less than 10 mins) either by car or bus. We preferred the bus as the stop is only 100 yards from the hotel & parking can be a bit of a pain in town. The hotel its self is kept very clean, the rooms have a white minimalist theme, which is excellent & in keeping with its surroundings. It is situated amongst an olive grove, which is a great backdrop for the views of Capri & the Bay of Naples. The staff being very professional, polite & friendly. Elias the current mixologist/bar tender was always on duty, to offer his knowledge on choice of cocktails. We had several afternoon lunches at the pool dining area, during our stay which were always fresh & full of flavour, Elias again providing his choice of wines to accompany the meal. The continental breakfast, along with a small choice of freshly cooked items was always a good way to start the day. A lot of the items available are cooked in house by Rossa, a very tasty too. Linda was on hand at breakfast, to take your order & serve fresh juices, coffee & tea, if required. Prior to our arrival we where contacted on WhatsApp, by Walter the reception, inviting us to use this line of communication if we required any assistance during our stay for any restaurant or tour bookings, etc which was a nice touch. Thanks to Melanie & Rose for hosting us. Will be back

Incredible spot, great value and excellent service
A hidden gem in Sorrento! We looked at dozens of places and settled on MelRose Relais for the ratings and good value. We were blown away with Walter's hospitality, the quality of the property and the good location. An absolutely relaxing spot, you don't really even need to leave if you don't want. Walter helped us with free shuttles to several local restaurants so we could leave our car and the bar and pool service were great and friendly. Would absolutely stay again, we wish we could have stayed longer last time!

Melrose Relais was a dream stay for me after a busy 4 weeks travelling for work. The hotel is super quiet and peaceful and is very close to Marina Di Puolo which is a lovely little beach front, much calmer than those directly in and around Sorrento. The hotel is close to public transport, the breakfast was great and the guest services were impeccable. I really loved my stay there. My only tiny feedback would be that it would be of benefit to non-italian speaking guests to have a subtitles option for the television. Not that I came to Italy to watch TV at all, but it was a bit of a frustration on those nights i'd come back to my room after a long day at the beach/ hiking and didn't feel like reading a book etc.

I have nothing but great things to say about this hotel. The bed was very comfortable, the room was very clean. The host (Walter) was very welcoming and helpful. The breakfast and staff was amazing. The only warning I would give people is this is a 45 minute walk to Sorrento on a narrow dangerous road. Busing into Sorrento is an option as they run every 20-30 minutes, bus stop is 2 minutes away. I would still highly recommended this hotel and stay here again!!

Firstly, when we arrived to Sorrento, we were unable to ask the hotel how to get there by bus. We walked 35 minutes (with 45lb back packs). We ended up stopping and asking a hotel on the route to get us a tax. The taxi driver showed up and took us the wrong way. A 5 minute cab ride costed $50 Eruos (Canadian exchange is terrible at that). We got dropped off a 5 minute walk away as the taxi had no idea how to get there and I wasn’t allowing him to charge us anymore). The hotel manager was wonderful but said he had issues with his computer and phone and that is why we weren’t able to contact him. Once at the hotel, we loved every minute! It had beautiful grounds, once we learned bus EAV was so easy to ride (walk out of the hotel, go left at the entrance and right by a hotel on the right there is a bus stop (it’s 2 minutes to walk there, not even maybe that long). The bus comes every 20 minutes and the make change on the bus for money. The room was really nice, although the workers worked late our first night and I had to contact the manager. It was soon done and back to being quiet and peaceful. Hotel MelRose is a hidden gem. It’s a 15 minutes bus ride to the centre of Sorrento but we didn’t mind it at all. We even walked our last day and it took 45 minutes, with stopping to take breath taking view in! Would definitely come back again and never use a taxi ever again.

We spent 4 nights at Melrose. This is a wonderful boutique hotel, (only 8 rooms) located surrounded by nice gardens and a quite atmosphere away from the noisy city. Parking is offered and, if you have a car, moving out to the surrounding towns and costa Amalfi is simple. Walter was waiting for us and had a reservation at a restaurant located nearby and booked us for a day tour to Capri (don't miss this) on a 12-person boat. We stayed at the junior suite with it's own terrace where you could have spectacular views to the Capri Island side and to Vesuvius Volcano. Great sunsets by the way. Room was a bit smaller than expected, but the terrace compensated that since it gave us an open private space to enjoy the panoramic views previously mentioned. Breakfast at the Bistro down at street level were complete and delicious with great coffe plus a super personalized attention. We could not enjoy the pool because of the low temperature but I imagine will be nice in the summer. In summary, this is a great hotel to spend your vacation days at Amalfi Coast where you can choose to relax or move to explore nearby towns, including Sorrento which is the largest city around.

Fabulous hospitality. I came during the very end of the tourist season. I had the place to myself and was still treated as a king. It's a $25 euro 1.5 mile cab ride from Sorrento, but the bus is a $1 euro option and one i took into Sorrento every morning. There are no dinner options on site, but Martina called a restaurant that overlooked the ocean up the road and they sent a driver down to pick me up.❤️ They have a cafe on site and Ginavre cooked breakfast. Bith girls spoke English and were very friendly and conversational. The grounds are impeccable. The place is wonderful. Peace on the Tyrhennian Sea with views of Capri and Vesuvious. Highly recommend Grazie ❤️ 🇮🇹.
