I have been staying in Amalfi at Scarpariello for the last week with 40 of our family and closest friends and our friends decided on our last night as there would only be 4 adults and our daughter left that we should have a memorable dinner at Il San Pietro ( we have had dinner here on 2 previos visits... more

Just got back from 4 nights at this hotel in mid-October. The weather was unseasonably cold (15-17C) while we there but we still managed to get a good tan and swim in the sea. We played tennis every day and spent most of our time down by the beach. Positano is a short shuttle ride away. Almost everything about this... more

Having recently returned from a 3rd consecutive, 2 week stay at Il San Pietro and with a reservation in place for next year's return, I suddenly realized that this hotel doesn't need a review. Words would be superfluous & a picture's worth a thousand words. What a cliche, you say? And normally I'd agree, but this hotel simply MUST BE... more

It's taken me a while to write this review, but my wife and I stayed at San Pietro during the first leg of our honeymoon in early July. We had called 6 months before and the place was almost fully booked so I highly recommend making reservations in advance. The night we got there they had a festival of St... more

Our stay of three nights followed a a week of touring around Italy and was a very welcome and spectacular opportunity for relaxation. Staying at the ll San Pietro was like stepping into a movie set, it was so breathtaking and inviting that it was often hard to believe that this hotel and it's location are real. Built into a... more

My husband and I just returned from a memorable vacation in Positano and unfortunately I do not see us returning to Il San Pietro on our next trip to the Amalfi Coast. We arrived and were shown to our superior room which smelled very musty and moldy. We requested another room which was tucked into a corner with an inferior... more

This was our second trip to this beautiful hotel and it didn't disappoint. We find the staff very friendly, from Vito to Franco and Lorenzo on the front desk to "Pasquale1" by the pool and "Pasquale2" the maitre'd. The food has if anything got better and the Pasta chef in the Beach restaurant needs to be transfered up to the... more

The rooms are nice but the really special part of this hotel is the setting.....unlike anything you have experienced before--the hotel is literally built into the side of the cliff. It isn't cheap but if you are going to splurge once on your trip to Amalfi--do it here, you won't be disappointed. more

It was not my first time in Il San Pietro. I noticed that some travel magazine selected the hotel as the best in the wordl for 2008. I do not know if it is the best in the world, but returning to Il San Pietro reminded me how one of the best hotels in the world should be run and... more
