Our stay at the property is not exactly what we imagined. We did end up having a pretty decent view of what you would expect in Positano, however, hotel wise, we were not impressed. Breakfast was included, but was very limited to breads and spreads. It was very tricky getting to our room as we had to take two elevators, different sets of stairs, etc every time. The room itself seemed a bit run down and definitely required some work. We didn’t have a terrible experience, but just some things to note.

Will give an honest review after reading all the other reviews before this. My wife and I had read that there was ants in the hotel. During my stay there I saw one crawl up on me but only one. The hotel itself is pretty clean, but like all the other reviews have said… it’s very old… has the bare minimum. I would say that our room had a nice view which was great. AC was super weak and wasn’t working that well. Luckily I went during the end of September so it was low 70s. So at night I could just open the window for it to cool down. If you’re staying here in the summer… you might just die of the heat. Walk up to the hotel was a big struggle everyday. If you’re overweight or out of shape… you might reconsider booking another hotel closer to the ground level. I would honestly give it a 4/10. Has the bare minimum, didn’t really stay inside the hotel that much. Got the job done type of hotel.

The hotel it’s really outdated, and ridiculously overpriced. The breakfast was also bad. The only positive ill say is the staff is very friendly and helpful. Also there is a bus stop right in front of the hotel that can take you straight to main plaza.

Hotel itself & grounds were extremely outdated. This is not a 4 star hotel in any stretch of the imagination. Furniture in room was stained, bed was made with just one single sheet, AC didn’t work. Complete ripoff for the price. I wish we would have listened to other reviews & stayed somewhere else.

Loved the property, but be aware it is high in the hills so getting to and from the town was inconvenient. Be prepared to walk up many stairs if you plan to head into town frequent. There is also a bus route

Our stay was great! Staff was helpful and friendly. The breakfast every morning was nice. The pool was clean and huge. The hotel is outdated and could use some renovations. Location of the hotel is near the top so maybe a 15 minute walk down to the beach and 10 minutes down to shopping and restaurants. Luggage porters are available for $10 per bag.

Although in Positano therefore a great and memorable vicinity and view but the rooms need a serious upgrade of facilities, staff are nice but couldn’t help with the room conditions. Coffee for breakfast was one of the poorest ever that we experienced ( instant coffee ) not expected from a hotel hosting in popular Positano, Italy ! Very unpleasant and disappointing !

The main beds were fine. However we had paid for 2 quadruple family rooms. In both rooms the second beds were just chairs that folded out flat. I went to the front desk and said that we needed to have another bed put in one of the rooms. We were told to just fold the bed out flat and that bedding was in the closet for us to make the bed up. I’m not against making my own bed but I paid for quadruple rooms so I expected them to be made up as such especially considering how the cost of these rooms was extremely high. The fold out beds were broken and uncomfortable. The included breakfast was a bit lacklustre. Meat and non-meat items were often handled with the same serving utensils. One day we tried to get a snack from the bar 3 hours before the posted closing time but we were told it was closed. The lifts do not service every floor so you may be expected to go up and down stairs to your room or other places in the hotel. To get to the pool you have to go down a significant number of stairs and it is unavoidable). I’ve not stayed at other hotels in Positano so I can’t really compare, but it felt like the hotel was in major need of some upgrades and repairs. Most of the staff were very friendly and helpful.

This hotel was exactly what we wanted! We had a sea view at an affordable rate in Positano. Right outside the hotel entrance is the bus stop €1,80 per person takes you right down into town in just a few minutes. It comes every 30 minutes. If you want to skip the bus, you can walk into town, but prepare yourself! There are more stairs than I cared to count, and you need to be prepared to endure the heat. It’s pretty easy to navigate. You can also simply walk the road if you want to avoid the stairs, but the that will significantly extend the length of walk. It took about 5-7 minutes of stairs to get down to main town, then another 10 minutes or less through town to get to the beach. This hotel had an amazing, wry deep pool. It starts at about 2.5 feet, then begins to quickly drop. The main section of the pool is Olympic pool sized, being about 50m long, and a depth between 2.5-3.3m. The space was quite quiet until the weekend, when it appeared a number of locals come in for a poolside lunch ant the restaurant and swim. We enjoyed the breakfast spread which was included in our stay. The rooms were average, but served our purpose perfectly. I would return to this hotel if the price was right!

Beautiful view, welcoming front desk, great breakfast with eggs, fresh fruit, breads, cold cuts, cured salmon. Close to bus but it’s a vertical city so lots of steps. Great air conditioning in room. Did NOT like 4 PM check in and 10 AM check out. Price was too high for much shortened stay. At the price point should have earlier check in AND later check out.

I will only add to all the previous reviews that this place is definitely not worth what it’s charging. It’s pretty tired and in need of a lot of attention. Most disappointing was the front desk staff. Totally disinterested and even contemptuous. Zero idea what service should be. Grumpy and aggressively unhelpful. I would never stay here again.
