This hotel is literally worth 50 dollars a night not 2300 a night! The customer service is horrible, they don’t have a coffee machine, no iron, or water! It’s very outdated! The breakfast has a small menu, it’s very outdated! - I regret spending a penny here! They don’t even care about their guests and they don’t care for the high price guests are paying to enjoy their stay! They over charge you for the luggage pickup and drop off!

Great property and right next to the beach and ferry dock area. Convenient to shopping and restaurants. But a serious hike up the hill if you made reservations too far up. Be aware. Parking is at Gennaro Garage and space is limited there and all over Positano, so we spent the money on a taxi from Napoli and it was worth it. Had no reason to have a car. The view from the balconies looking over the water and up the hillside is outstanding. The service by the hotel staff is as quick as we have ever received anywhere. Daily breakfast was top notch and with the same view. Great pool and bar area. Their business center room has the most ridiculously beautiful view of the bay and hills that I can’t imagine anyone getting any work done in there. Loved Covo dei Saraceni. :)

It was nice having the property near the port. But having construction done right outside our balcony was horrible. The management only cares about making the dollar. We needed to leave early due to a family emergency. We booked for 5 nights and left after 3. Management refused to allow that and would not refund last 2 nights. I now have to deal with my credit card company on it. No compassion whatsoever.

This is a beautiful hotel and we feel we found a gem. Our incredibly big room (junior suite) was very comfortable and overlooked the beach, which was a bustling hub of activity. The staff were helpful and very friendly. Highly recommend this hotel. Loved it.

Amazing property. We absolutely loved this hotel, the best location in town, very comfortable beds, clean rooms, delicious food, incredible sea views.The staff is very friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel is right beside the port so we were able to just jump on ferry for quick day trips. We travelled Italy for 10 days staying a various hotels along the way and this one is hands down our most favorite! We highly recommend!!

Positano stay
We had an amazing stay at this hotel. We were in a basic room and it worked great for what we needed. The staff is extremely friendly and very helpful. The breakfast spread is awesome and the pool is amazing as well. My only negative thing to say is we got two massages and they charge you an arm and leg for them and they come to your room to do them. We had a very small room so they brought us to a bathroom upstairs and the lights couldn’t be turned off. So for 180 euros I wouldn’t say the massage was worth it at all. But they did their best. The location is excellent when wanting to be close to the beach but you will have to climb stairs to get to the hotel and to do anything else. The only downfall to the location and the basic rooms is you are right in the heart of it so it’s extremely noisy at night. There’s a club across the way and can hear the music, people outside yelling at all hours and they come to do some sort of bottle pickup & drop off seems like anytime from 2:00 am to 6:00 am and it’s super loud. Other than that we would definitely stay here again no doubt!

Beautifully appointed and situated hotel at premier Positano location, on the beach near the ferry wharf. Nice bar and restaurant, classy breakfast room in the water . Maria in the breakfast room makes you feel at home . Rosario , of the waiting staff, is wonderful. The front desk staff is always attentive, even before arriving with responsive emails. We could not have asked for more.

Loved this hotel! Located ON THE BEACH! In the walking section of old Town. Staff, all of them, excellent. Especially Rosario in the bar, Alexandra Concierge, gino front desk mgr. Room spotless, large balcony w seating, comfortable beds. Located right at the ferry dock so we didn't have to haul luggage up a bazillion stairs to a taxi (hotel also has porters to do that. If you taxiing here, i Hightower recommend the baggage porter both ways!
