This is an attractive, well situated hotel where the extraordinary staff were the key to an outstanding experience. The on site restaurant, Don Giovanni, is definitely worth checking out. Front desk assistance was friendly, thoughtful and competent. The property furnishings are very traditional, and it lacks certain modern touches, but it had everything needed for a lovely stay in Positano.

This property is amazing! They went above and beyond to help us when our ferry service to Capri got cancelled. Ana from the front desk was exceptional. They made our experience in Positano one to remember! The location and the view of this hotel is just as amazing as Le Sirenuse, might even be better!!!!! 5 STARS overall!!!!

Hotel is nice and clean, close to transit. It is a bit of a walk and straight down to the port but not a problem if you enjoy walking. Lots of places to eat and sights are amazing. Check in very easy and staff was very pleasant. We stayed for 4 days and that's way to long. you can see everything in 2 full days. Would recommend staying in Sorento a few days as well, better shopping, pubs, restaurants etc. But the views cant be beat from the rooms here.

We stayed here for 2 nights. the view was amazing. the staff was very nice, and thoughtful. there were many dining options and we shopped and walked by the beach. I couldn't believe i paid a reasonable fee for beachside view. they offered free breakfast and it was delicious. i was able to get a bag of laundry cleaned and folded and ready in under 24hrs for just 22 euros. I highly recommend this hotel and would stay here again.

A dream come true, the movie “Under the Tuscan Sun

Blown away with the service and exceptional staff and owner. It makes you feel like home. As soon we walked in our room was to die for. Beautiful view of the Amalfi Coast and very reasonable price. The service was 10 stars and the view is to die for. The owner personally spoke to us in person and mentioned the movie “Under the Tuscan sun” was filmed in his hotel. It is right across shops and restaurant Bruno. They also serve room service

I cannot say enough good things about this hotel. I would highly recommend it for everyone. They welcomed us with a smile, took in our luggage at 9am (when check in isnt until 2pm) sonce we srrived so early, they said our room would be ready in 30 minutes but we told them we werr catching a ferry to Capri. They offered to put our luggage in our room for us while we were away. We got back and greeted with another smile, she helped us out and walked us to our room where the luggages sat. They said we would get a welcome drink but we were off to dinner, so they gave it to us the next morning during our breakfast to go since we had to catch a taxi back to Naple. We wish we wouldve spent multiple nights here because everything about it was just wonderful!

This hotel is way more than a 3-star hotel. It has the best view of Positano. If you are lucky and get a good room like us you really enjoy the view but overall I think all of the rooms have a view but ours was on the corner and the best. The room service was great and everybody were super friendly and helpful. They could make reservations for us for the best restaurants in Positano. The restaurant also has a great view and food and definitely you should spend at least one night there. I think they should update their photos because it is misleading and the actual room is really better itself. Thank you for having us, we had a great time in your hotel.

Best location - we walked all around Positano and the best view was right around where this hotel is. Price is extremely reasonable given how expensive its neighbouring hotels with the same views are. Excellent breakfast buffet and service. Only con was water wasn't always warm near end of the day and noise was loud from restaurant (we stayed on ground floor) - but I consider this the best quality:price hotel in positano.
