The family owned hotel people were the best. Always with a happy greeting, glad to help with anything. Restaurant reservations, personal drivers, taxi’s and recommendations for places to visit. Loved our room, view, breakfast prompt in the morning, bar in hotel. We are really looking forward to returning to our hotel soon.
Wine on our terrace on arriving day.
Photo of part of Positano from our terrace.. right before nightfall. Beautiful!
Another view from our room to the wonderful Mediterranean Sea.
One of the delicious personalized breakfast served each morning. Again, love the view.

All was great , hotel is in a nice location that we liked a lot , I put 4 star for Staff , just because the lady at the reception was a little too serious and argumentative, although she was helpful and at the end didn’t charge us for water , but we were afraid of asking her for anything!! The younger lady was super nice and friendly, in general we are happy and pleased.

Decent 3 star hotel with a few issues

The good: The hotel is VERY clean. I was impressed by the cleanliness of the rooms and the common areas. We also liked the location and the balcony in our room. The walk up to the hotel from the port/beach is very daunting especially with luggage, but that’s an issue in Positano as a whole. The A/C worked well in the room, which was a huge plus for us during an extremely hot time of year The not so good: The walls are incredibly thin. We could hear everything in the rooms next door and in the hallways. We were stuck next to some noisy families so it was pretty loud throughout our stay. We were also pretty disappointed by the lack of working wifi. Not sure if the wifi was only working in certain areas, but it didn’t work AT ALL for us during our stay. We were also disappointed by the up-charge for cooked eggs for breakfast. Having to give our key to the front desk every day before leaving the hotel was kind of weird as well. And it would have been nice to have some help from the front desk to help arrange a porter service for our bags.

Lovely hotel with excellent staff. Beautiful views. Hotel offers breakfast either in dining area or your room. Wonderful menu to choose from. This town is a challenge for anyone with mobility issues, so spring for a taxi. That said, it is one of our favorite places to visit in Italy.
