The Villa Strongoli is a former rural palace located on Vittoria Veneto #1, on the Bay of Naples shoreline of Sorrento, in Campania, Italy.
According to local legend the property includes the house in which Torquato Tasso was born.
Because the ownership was advertised as English, the hotel held great appeal for British and American travellers by the end of the century.
[4] A review from 1896-1897 describes one of the managers as a Mr Doyle from Ireland, nephew of the wife of the owner.
[5] By the late 1880s, there would have been competition for Anglo-Saxon travelers from other Sorrentine seaside hotels Bristol, d'Angleterre (Villa Nardi), and Vittoria.
