"Terrible hike up many steps with luggage, expensive elevator fees which are basically required. Cleaning fee in cash only and not listed in the total All in all I would have preferred to pay more at a drive up hotel after factoring all the side fees needed each time to get to/fr this property. Living room needs more seating Sea facing bedroom missing a blind/shade so had to hang a towel Sea view is terrific and should be for how high we climbed"

"Notre séjour a été très agréable. L'appartement est fonctionnel et propre. Les propriétaires sont très accueillants et disponibles. Quelle vue magnifique ! Il faut cependant préciser qu'il faut gravir 130 marches pour accéder à l'appartement. Praiano est plus calme que les autres villes environnantes et l'accessibilité au reste de la Côte Amalfitaine est très facile par transport publique."

Hotel Royal Positano

8/10 Good

"Location and views"

Hotel Buca di Bacco

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing. No other explanation needed"

Villa Rosa

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay at Villa Rosa. Prime location! We will be back for sure. Every one of the staff members were super nice and helpful. Thank you!!!! 10/10"

Villa La Tartana

10/10 Excellent

"Exactly what we wanted in Positano. Clean, comfortable room, a balcony we actually used, and staff who went out of their way. Alfonso sorted our transport to Naples and confirmed it in person when we asked, which mattered because we had a train we couldn't miss. Easy walk to the beach and restaurants. Would stay again."

Miramare

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice staff, room views are amazing, recommend the junior suite!"

Casa Guadagno

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing experience at this hotel. Friendly and helpful staff. It really felt like home"

Covo dei Saraceni

10/10 Excellent

"I had an absolutely wonderful stay at this hotel and couldn’t recommend it more highly. From the moment I arrived, the staff was warm, welcoming, and incredibly attentive. The room was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully maintained, with everything I needed for a relaxing stay. The location was convenient, the amenities were excellent, and every detail made the experience feel special. The service truly went above and beyond, and I felt valued throughout my visit. I would happily stay here again and will be recommending it to friends and family."

Positano Art Hotel Pasitea

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing hotel and amazing staff. There is porter service so no need to lug baggage around (but highly recommend walking the steps! Tough in the heat but you run into amazing spots and beautiful views). Central location close enough to port you can walk no problem but not super busy during the day - tons of restaurants close by. Would recommend for anyone staying here!"

Hotel Le Agavi

8/10 Good

"Very nice hotel. Only problem is the location. If we planned better we would have stayed lower in town, probably on the beach."
