Precioso hotel con varios inconvenientes
Pros:

La habitación era magnífica, nos cambiaron a una superior por el mismo precio. El mobiliario, las vistas, el baño.

Cons:

Hay que cargar el equipaje por escaleras hasta llegar al hotel. El desayuno no era en el mismo hotel y, aunque cerca, al estar lloviendo era muy incómodo. El parking asociado al hotel era carísimo, nos cobraron 80€ por dos noches (de día sacábamos el coche) y era al aire libre sin vigilancia

En fantastisk resa och ett underbart boende! Vi kommer gärna tillbaka!
Pros:

Min dotter och jag bokade Villa Principe Giovanni, men blev på plats uppgraderade till hotellet Conca d'Oro. Vi bodde där i 5 nätter i slutet av oktober och vi verkligen älskade Positano!
Otroligt hjälpsam och tillmötesgående personal på hotellet, helt fantastiska frukostar, enastående utsikt från såväl rummet som frukostterrassen, sköna sängar, bra städning och utsökt restaurang!
Vi bodde i västra delen av samhället, ovanför Fornillo Beach, vilket gav en fantastiskt fin utsikt över Positano.

Resan: Vi flög till Neapel och åkte till Positano med taxi, på hemresan tog vi Positano Jet/snabbfärjan till Neapel (färjan kan ställas in vid dåligt väder).

Jag är drygt 50 och dottern snart 20 och vi var förberedda på alla trappor i Positano och planerade en aktiv semester. Några utflyktstips:
- Pompeii: Om du gillar arkeologi och historia så är Pompeii ett måste! Vi åkte till Sorrento efteråt för såväl shopping som middag. Åkte från Pompeii med tåg till Sorrento och därefter buss till Positano.
- Capri: En dagstripp är ett måste. Missa inte stolliften Seggiovia monte (på Monte Solaro). Makalös utsikt från toppen.
- Path of the gods: Vandringsleden är bitvis ganska utmanande och även om du är höjdrädd (som jag) så rekommenderar jag det starkt. Rekommenderar dock inte "genvägen" ner till Praiano (ca 400-500 m) som är otroligt brant, utan staket och mycket lösa stenar.
- Vi åkte till Praiano två dagar (15 minuter med buss). Åt middag på Tramonto d'Oro med helt underbar utsikt och solnedgång. Missa inte takterrassen. Praiano är även fullt av små gränder med mycket mosaik/keramikskulpturer.

Vi besökte Positano när säsongen nästan var slut, men upplevde ingen som helst trängsel. Det var fritt fram för oss att själva upptäcka alla gränder och trappor - och genvägar till såväl hamn som strand. Vi blev otroligt vänligt bemötta i alla affärer och restauranger och vi skulle väldigt gärna åka tillbaka - för att upptäcka ännu mer av Positano och Amalfikusten!

Cons:

Allt var toppen! Det enda negativa var att resan var för kort :-)

A comfy, luxurious hotel with very nice staff.
Pros:

Beautiful room and view, and a truly wonderful breakfast. The staff were also very kind and helpful.

Cons:

It’s really hard to find (tight streets and lots of stairs to haul your luggage up), and the check-in system is weird — you have to contact another property to let them know you’ve arrived and are ready to check

Pros:

Hotel stuff met us at the requested hour, helped us with parking and luggage. Stuff was friendly, polite and helpful. We felt welcomed. The room was huge, the bathtub was gorgeous. The terrace and the view was spectacular. It was a pity we came very late and had only a few morning hours to enjoy the view, but the sunrise was very beautiful. Breakfast was at a near by hotel's terrace, we enjoyed walking up the hill a bit. The breakfast was with a stunning view, it was tasty, variety of food was vast, coffee was good. It was a best way we could imagine to start a day. The hotel is not far from the center and main beach, just 15 min walk down the hill. You can return to hotel with a bus, if climbing up the hill is not your preference.

Cons:

We enjoyed everything, thank you!

Pros:

Very nice, small hotel. Comfortable bed and good shower. The breakfast was great, served in a nearby hotel.

Cons:

Room had a patio with table and chairs, but no view at all. The hotel was rather hard to find. It's located rather high up on the west side of the town, so had to walk many steps to get there.
