The Best Western is 3 km from Sorrento centre, although they mention a 'courtesy shuttle':

The Aminta doesn't mention how far away it is, though they have a shuttle bus and say the walk to the town is 1.8km.

Shuttles are unlikely to run in the evenings, so either hotel will mean taxi or longish walk if you eat out in town (unless you will have a hire car).

I am attaching below a interesting link concerned with Sorrento Hotels:

Both hotels have good reputations and, personally, I would be happy with either. Both are on bus routes with nearby stops. Together with the courtesy bus service, this should provide convenient access to town. It is also convenient to explore the peninsula in the opposite direction. Walking to town is not a quick option. The Aminta is high up with terrific views. The footpath to town shortcuts the winding road and is steep.
