Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Staff were always available to assist with enquiries and recommendations. The hotel was well located, easy to find, had a great breakfast and beautiful views.
This meticulous hotel is in a great location. Not too far close to the city center, but you can walk down to where all the action is. The staff was very helpful (their English is excellent) with great restaurant recommendations and bus information. They were very responsive when we had an issue. Overall a very positive experience.

Long walk up from beach with luggage.
Very clean but sparse room. Probably a good value for the price at this time of year. Good view, but toward the west, not overlooking Positano.
Great position with great view and close enough to main beach. Restaurants all close.
We had an ocean view quad room with ample space for 4 adults.
Lots of steps to get around but that is Positano
Beautiful view of Positano and overlooking the water. Would stay here again. Found a nice restaurant a short walk away that served up some great pasta.
Up on the hill with a great view. Would suggest you pay the porter service to get your bags to and from the hotel. its worth the Euros. They didn't put us in the room that we originally had booked. They gave us an apartment down stairs. Initially I felt like they were trying to pull the wool over our eyes (australian saying) but in the end we enjoyed the privacy and the room the apartment offered. Had dinner at a beautiful dinner at a restaurant just down the hill overlooking the coast.
Overall the location, service and room were excellent. Very clean, staff is very friendly, and the location offered great views and was right by the bus stop so you didn't have to worry about walking up/down stairs with luggage or to get anywhere. Only main issue is that in 2013 - wifi should be accessible in every room....instead you can only get it in the common area upstairs and the signal strength is not that good.....really not acceptable in todays technology driven society. But regardless of that I would stay there again.
Charming, immaculate family operated property, great service. We had a room on the second floor affording us a superior view. Hotel is very well maintained and nicely laid out. Shower is a bit messy and the bed was as hard as a rock. The location is at the top of the city so a walk down the stairs gets you to the shops and beach. A very easy-to-use bus stop is just a few steps away. Very convenient. I'd stay here again.
Each apartment comes with a beautiful view and the communal area has some of the best. The place itself is super easy to find (a huge plus in Positano) with much of what you'll need a short walk away. The biggest plus about this place is the staff, especially Dario - he was incredibly helpful during our stay! Thanks heaps!! If one thing could be improved - stronger wifi so it can reach the rooms. Currently only available in the communal areas but with that great view you don't mind.
Would not stay there again! Two days they did not clean the room or give me fresh towels! Would not recommend it to anyone!

Great for family
The hotel staff was very helpful. I even had a headache and Pablo prepared for me black coffee with zest of lemon, which he said it was great for headaches. It is a family business hotel and they even prepare the croisants and other pastries for breakfast from scratch...delicious! The hotel is on the top of the hill, so you can enjoy the view of the city and the ocean. It was a pleasant experience with a personal touch thanks to Pablo and Lucia.
Wir waren rundum zufrieden, v.a. die Aussicht war super. Zimmer & Balkon wirkten frisch renoviert und gepflegt. Ich kann die schlechte Bewertung des Hotels nicht nachvollziehen. Frühstück war etwas spärlich, aber typisch italienisch.
Adoramos o hotel, possui um vista maravilhosa e a localizaçao é boa, apensar de nao ficar na parte inferior. A estrutura do hotel é simples mas super confortavel, cafe da manha razoavel e funcionarios simpaticos
Hotel familiar, a equipe foi muito atenciosa, a vista é linda, o quarto para 4 era um pouco apertado, principalmente na hora de abrir as malas, mas nada que atrapalhasse a nossa estada, varanda muito gostosa com uma vista maravilhosa, café da manhã razoável.
Tolle Lage, Sehr netter Empfang. Das Zimmer war superschön mit Terrasse und wundervollem Meerblick. Der Aufenthalt war ein Traum. Das Frühstück hat noch potential nach oben.

Helt okej hotell!
Hotellet ligger nära havet (med en lite jobbig uppförsbacke dock,hehe) och går att nå till fots. Vi hade bokat ett dubbelrum men fick ett lägenhetsrum, vilket vi såklart uppskattade (egen uteplats m.m.). Dock visade det sig att vi inte fick nyttja det rummets egenskaper, t.ex. spis, porslin med mera vilket vi tyckte var lite snålt när de faktiskt hade placerat oss i denna lägenhet av någon orsak. Annars var upplevelsen positiv. Trevlig personal, okej frukost, skapligt nära busshållsplats, gratis uppkoppling till internet m.m. Största pluset går helt klart till den vackra vyn!
Bra, rent hotell med terass/balkong med havsutsikt i alla rum. Lätt att komma till med taxi eller bussen.
Hjälpsam trevlig personal, där de flesta pratar engelska.
Få nackdelar - Wifi endast i lobbyn/baren och kanske lite trögt med frukosten när det var många samtidigt.
Bra hotell som rekommenderas.
