Incredible service, food and hotel. Would highly recommend! Best Views in Positano.
Pros:

Staff were so incredibly friendly and helpful. The facilities were lovely and I liked the fact they shut the terrace to non resident guests until after 6pm so that as guests we got to enjoy the view at the pool rather than watch people take photos all day.

We also got to use their car for free which was a lovely experience. Would highly recommend and would love to go back.

Breathtaking views, perfect location & incredible staff!
Pros:

We absolutely loved our stay at the Poseidon! We opted for a suite, and the porch along was worth it. It was spacious with absolutely breathtaking views. The staff were friendly, helpful and so lovely. They really elevated the experience. The hotel is in a great location, the breakfast was nice, the restaurant for dinner is elite and the pool area is divine. I would highly recommend this hotel!!

Look no further and stay here
Pros:

Positano is a special place. I'm a fast-paced kind of traveler who will usually try to pack every day of a trip full to the brim with museums, tours, activities, etc. (You may think I'm exaggerating, but I soaked my socks through with blood on a trip to Sweden a few weeks prior to this from walking so much.) Something wonderful about visiting Positano is that this is simply not an option there. You're forced to slow down, sleep in a little later, take that long lunch, nap on the beach, etc. It's a wonderful reminder to slow down and just savor the moment. And the scenery here is absolutely worth slowing down and savoring.

The Hotel Poseidon is a place that would normally be wildly outside of my budget, but I am fortunate enough to live locally and be able to come on "off" days when it's a bit cheaper. I could not possibly recommend this place enough. The hotel is beautiful, the views are breathtaking, and the staff are warm and helpful. My first trip to Hotel Poseidon felt like coming home, even though I'd never been here before. I will certainly be making an annual tradition out of staying here in the lull of the tourist season, and I will recommend this property to any friends passing through.

My only negative comment is that it is, of course, expensive. The restaurant and bar prices feel a bit steep for what you get. (I had two $30 pre-dinner cocktails back to back on an empty stomach and hardly even felt a buzz. Dinner was good, but I believe you could find something similar out in town for a better price.) That being said, the service, view, and convenience all justified the price for me.

Exceptional Stay at Hotel Poseidon!
Pros:

Our stay at Hotel Poseidon was absolutely exceptional! The staff was wonderful, and the hotel had such a charming, welcoming atmosphere. Our room, the “funny room”, was unforgettable, featuring an outstanding rooftop balcony with an amazing view of Positano and the sea. It was the perfect spot to relax and take in the beauty of the Amalfi Coast.

Everything about our stay exceeded expectations and we can’t wait to return!

They knew what I wanted even before I asked for it! Felt at home in such a magical place. I will cherish the memories of the Poseidon forever!!

We enjoyed our stay for 3 nights at Hotel Poseidon. Perfect location in Positano.
Pros:

Location was perfect. Staff was so friendly and helpful. I really liked having our own patio even though the view was somewhat obstructed. Breakfast was great with many options. We especially enjoyed sitting by the pool with the gorgeous view of Positano both in the morning and in the evening. The spa was able to accommodate me for a massage after hiking the Path of the Gods that same day.

Cons:

All the rooms are different and our particular room didn't have a desk. If you need to bring your laptop be sure to ask for a room with a desk.

First class hospitality with priceless views
Pros:

A friend of my husband’s told him this was the nicest hotel they’ve ever stayed in which is what led us here for our 25th wedding anniversary. Hotel Poseidon did not disappoint! The views are matched only by the warmth and hospitality of the staff. Everyone we interacted with went above and beyond to make our four night stay special. Upon arrival we received a card to use at the hotel bar for a complimentary bottle of Prosecco. The servers for the bar area which extends to the poolside patio see the same beautiful view day after day. Yet they seem to understand that their guests are only visiting for a short time. The staff is aware people spend a good amount of time and resources to come to Positano and they want to make your stay a memorable one. Our favorite moments were spent on the patio watching the sunset with a glass of Prosecco or Aperol spritz. We also had an amazing dinner in the restaurant on our actual anniversary. The breakfast buffet was amazing as well! The hotel arranged drivers for us to and from the Naples train station who were professional and embodied the same spirit of hospitality.
