Best view and the patio was great. Having said that….decor needs updated including furnishings in room (shelf or table in bathroom for example). No plugs near bed, and the lights on nightstands had a short and didn’t seem safe. Tablet a good concept but not practical. Had to use tablet for tv but if you put tablet on the table at night after turning off tv, it is dead in the morning and you can’t turn on tv. No coffee pot in room. Shuttle scheduling didn’t work and not enough availability, shuttle was always full. Fantastic views but be aware, no access to city except the shuttle. Listing says 2 restaurants, but actually only one which you can order from restaurant or bar area. If you don’t like menu, no other options.

Outstanding!

We couldn’t have been happier with our stay ! The views were gorgeous, the hotel was beautiful and had everything we need and it was a major plus to have great food on site. My husband and I preferred to eat dinner at the restaurant every night of our stay. I highly recommend and hope to be back again!

Views are spectacular and the balcony area for each room is beautiful so that you can experience it from your own room, as well as terraces, dining areas, etc. Breakfast is great but it would be nice to have ceramic dishes, cups, etc. and cloth placemats & napkins to make the experience more enjoyable, with a small elegant touch.Also, in previous years the other location for breakfast ( now repurposed) was preferable, and guests were able to sit out on the terrace and enjoy a beautiful view on very pretty and comfortable furniture, in addition to tables/ chairs. That option was another plus*** for this hotel, but no longer available. The front desk staff are very friendly and helpful, which made my stay very pleasant. Love it here and plan to return! Thank you! Shuttle service is a real plus, convenient,and runs smoothly!

Love the views and shuttle!

The views from the Sky Deluxe room were amazing and we loved the large tub that also had a view from it. The shuttle was awesome to use as taxis were charging a lot in the area.

The views are stunning, the rooms clean, and overall facilities are good. However, we went mid October, and the pool closes on the 15th of October, which is not advertised, and unfortunately was a large part of the reason we'd booked. At the outside we missed the shuttle bus from Amalfi to get us to the hotel (it does not wait, booking makes no difference), and at the end our bill had been scammed. Food was expensive as well, and overall not what you would expect from a relatively high class establishment.

My wife liked this property more than I. The hotel was built in 1835 but has only been updated to circa 1960, and in some places, it shows. We were there off season and pool was empty which detracted from the overall look of the property. Big room was sparsely furnished but opened onto unforgettable deck overlooking Amalfi coast from a higher elevation than in town. So yes, the surroundings are spectacular but the hotel isn’t keeping up. Shuttle is wonderful (and necessary) as a way to get to town and back. Great staff and great breakfast. Solid 4 stars for a less expensive place to stay in Amalfi.

This hotel has to have one of the best views on the Amalfi Coast. The staff is welcoming and helpful with any of your needs. It is vey high up from the beach area so the hotel provides vans to transport guests to and from the town center. The facility and rooms are spacious with balconies that overlook the sea. Meals are served in a beautiful dining room or on the veranda again overlooking the sea.

My wife and I stayed at this hotel for two nights at the beginning of September 2024. We wish we would’ve stayed an extra couple days. The hotel is very nice with a mid century modern vibe. We really enjoyed the pool area and our room had a nice balcony view overlooking the sea. This hotel has a free shuttle that will take you to downtown Amalfi and also to their private swimming beach. Be aware that if you stay at other hotels in the area, the taxi rides to the center of town are very expensive. The free shuttle was a godsend. The front desk staff greeted us warmly and showed us to our room. When we had an issue with our bill at checkout, the staff quickly rectified the issue. The daily breakfast on the veranda overlooking the sea was a great way to start your day.

The view is spectacular! The rooms are older but the staff makes up for any shortcomings in that regard. The shuttle that takes you from town and back runs regularly and is a must! The staff helped us with some logistical planning and were always nice and helpful. The breakfast is full of variety and quality offerings.

The hotel is literally on a hillside, with an amazing sea view. Even though it's a short distance from the Amalfi city center, you feel very remote. This is due to the winding streets to get to and from the hotel. You would not want to walk very far from the hotel based on the narrow street and extreme elevation changes. That being said, we didn't leave the hotel for 2 days and were perfectly content. Our aim for this visit was to relax, and we were able to do that. Food on site was exceptional - not only in quality, but in presentation. Most of the staff was attentive and friendly, but not all. We enjoyed many lunches and dinners, but the breakfasts really stood out. The housekeeping staff was second to none. Very thorough, always busy, and friendly when engaged. We would definitely recommend this hotel.
