Very well located hotel by the ferry port can catch an elevator ( 5 minutes walk from hotel) that takes you up to main shopping areas. Has a great skyline bar with wonderful views of the sea. Breakfast is good. Some restaurants very close to the hotel are excellent . The hotel has an elevator .

Really liked the property and location. Be prepared to take the public lift, or a taxi to get up to the piazza and shopping. Too many steps and walking in a very winding road otherwise. The room had the smallest shower I have used before. Loved the hotel, area and staff.

We stayed here with our two teenage daughters and we all loved this hotel, especially the location. It was perfect! It's a quick walk up the stairs straight into town, or there is a lift. We were Monte's from the marina where we caught our boat for our excursion. Highly recommend!

The location is excellent if you are taking the ferry to Capri, Positano, Naples, etc. You walk right outside and it is directly out the door. Incredible views from the port. There is a very small beach nearby which is nice to put your feet in. The lift up to the city center is also very close and convenient. The included breakfast alone was worth the stay. Lots of options and staff incredibly friendly. On day 3, the breakfast coffee lady brought us cappuccinos without even asking, she knew what we wanted and was so kind. After traveling the coast for 16 days, I would say this is probably the best value/convenient hotel you can find in the area.

Poor room

I was disappointed to be given a room with no window, only a light well. I booked the hotel in the port/marina to have a view. Paid full price but didn’t see anything from the room. Perhaps single occupancy is not valued If the hotel intends to rent the room they should notify them at the time of the booking. It spoilt my stay

Mixed Feelings. Nice hotel. Terrible Staff

I have a bit of trouble writing this review. Whereas the hotel itself is exceptionally nice, the attitude of the front desk staff was horrible. Everyone we dealt with at the front desk over our three day stay was exceptionally rude. On the very last day, we were checking out early and I sent my daughter to the desk with one of the card keys and asked her to get a receipt. She came back, telling me that the woman at the desk was chastising her because she was only turning in one of the two card keys. Now mind you, these are plain white plastic card keys. No customization, and nothing fancy. The lady at the front desk would not give her a receipt. I then went out to speak to the lady and told her that we only had the one key on us and that the other one might be in the room or we may have lost it. She rolled her eyes at me and told me that there was a standard €10 charge for a missing card key. I told her that was ridiculous and that that was not ever mentioned to us. She then went on to ask who we booked our hotel through. When I told her it was hotels.com she said it should’ve been in their contract. She ultimately told me that she would just pay for it for herself, which was clearly just said in spite, and we knew it was not true. Additionally, we were invited up to a “guest only” music session on the roof bar. We ordered three cokes and were charged €30 and the guitarist took a break the entire time we were there. And the pool closes at 6:00 PM.

Great location for us as we loved being next to the water. Fabulous view from our balcony. We enjoyed walking up and back down to the town too. The pool was a nice feature, but I was surprised that we had to hire sunbeds next to it. The town however, was heaving and not relaxing. No beach either which was a shock

If you want to stay right near the water and the ports, this is the place to be. Cool at night (no AC in the rooms) and conveniently located near the water and excellent restaurants. However, if you are going between the hotel and the downtown area, there is a big hill to climb with lots of stairs. There is an elevator, but a small walk to get there. The hotel was clean, the breakfast in the morning provided options and the rooftop bar was my favorite place.

We would certainly start there again!

The hotel was in great location, especially if you want to take the ferry elsewhere! The service was great, especially at the roof top bar/pool and the restaurant on the ground floor. Everyone was amazing! It was a typical European room that was a little tight, but our view was amazing!!
