The staff was very helpful -- they even sent someone out to help park my car when I was having trouble getting it into a small space. Note that they actually have parking (although you have to pay) -- a parking spot on the Amalfi Coast is rare and precious! The room was comfortable and spacious, with a small balcony overlooking the water. Breakfast was A1. The location was good, with many restaurants near the water, and a short walk up into the old town.

Donald United States of America

Nice 3-to-4-Star property, simple but pleasant tiled rooms, nicely-sized; good bathroom/shower (no tub). Rooms #114-115 feature more than balcony - access to large veranda with great views of Amalfi-town and the sea just below. Good breakfast selection, plus special-order items. (Asked about waffle/crepes, got pancakes!) Excellent location on quiet dead-end seaside street; seawall, marina, promenade provides hotel-frontage. Ideal not just for Amalfi, but super-easy access to local SITA-busses and many ferry options. Swimming/beach options nearby.
