The Hotel is set on a spur of rock in one of the most panoramic settings of Sorrento where at one time there was a " Tonnara" from which the hotel takes its name, "La Tonnarella" is an oasis of peace and tranquillity for those who wish to sample a corner of paradise.The Hotel takes its name from the typical net used for fishing the smallest species of the tunas family. The net was called "Tonnarella".The net is nowadays still in use in the autumnal months. On the mountain edge existed one small tower called "Guardiola", today transformed in lookout, used anciently for the control of the nets of the "Tonnarella".
