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.

This property is very old and not kept up. We had an ant infestation and they didn’t do anything about it. The pool area is so run down and the breakfast is terrible. I found a swished ant in my croissant. The concierge was rude and didn’t want to help with the ant problem and said is natural. I guess cause they weren’t sleeping with them and have them crawl in their suit cases.

Extremely Disappointed
The room does not look like the pictures in the listing at all. The hotel is very old, in a bad way. The hallways smell. There are bugs everywhere, including an ant trail in our room! The lights in our bathroom would would stop working/flicker constantly. Stains all over the bathroom counter from God knows what Most of the staff was nice and friendly, but there are a few employees who seem to not really care/want to deal with guests at all. No incidents but by the end of the stay there were people at the from desk we would avoid speaking to if we needed anything. The WiFi was good in most areas but did not reach our room. We had booked this hotel because we wanted to stay in a nice place as Positano is a really small town. The hotel was listed as a 4 star hotel and the pictures looked to back that. However the quality was more in line with a cheap motel. I am extremely disappointed
