This hotel is all about the view. It is well positioned high in the cliff / hill. I have to say that for North American patern you may feel disapointed but relax, you are in Italy! Enjoy the spectacular views! Ask for a sea view. I stayed at the higher floor with my family. We would stay at the terrace... More

The Amalfi coast region (even over Tuscany region) is particularily beautiful as are the views from this hotel. We had a room with balcony on the top floor approx mid building which offered an unobstructed view of the sea and coastline below. If you are prepared to be accepting of the fact this is an older hotel then do not... More

First, the view from our room's balcony was worth the cost of admission...There's nothing that I've seen that quite compares...and I've traveled extensively. The trip on the winding roads through Positano up the mountain to our hotel in Amalfi was breathtaking...although frightening at times. The bus drivers really know what they're doing there and have a great judge of distance.... More

We traveled to Amalfi as part of a semi-escorted tour. Definitely enjoyed this hotel, even tho it had dated decor and a miniature tv, we couldn't help but get up early to watch the sunrises over Amalfi, or spend time on the outdoor terrace bar for drinks, and gaze at the sea and town before our return to Rome. Located... More

Hotel is in a beautiful location with stunning views. Reception and all other staff are pleasant, helpful and professional. It is not by any means a modern hotel; the decor is quite quirky! Everywhere is clean and tidy. Our room was spacious and clean with a lovely L shaped balcony. We made use of the convenient and regular shuttle bus... More

This hotel deserves a 4 star rating as service was excellent from staff at front desk to bar and restaurants. The views are spectacular from rooms facing the coast and from lounge areas. Shuttle to and from town runs conveniently every half hour. Rooms were clean and spacious with balcony facing town and sea. Enjoyed the meals as menu had... More

Stayed here 1 week for our honeymoon and would definitely recommend. Hotel is a short drive up the amazing and hair raising road, provided by hotel courtesy minibus. Best of both as the town and coast is easy to get to by minibus and there are many areas in the hills walk and explore. Hotel was clean and staff were... More

One of our favourites in seven weeks of travel. A beautiful room on the 3 rd floor with a large balcony overlooking the sea and on one occasion a spectacular thunder and lightning show. (All rooms have balconies facing the sea). Huge comfortable room,lovely bathroom. Everything clean, attractive, fresh smelling. Large attractive public rooms, beautifully balconies off both dining rooms,... More
