Pros:

Otelin konumu cok guzeldi odamiz deniz manzariliydi ve cok guzel bir balkonu vardi genel olarak cok temiz bir otel .merkeze ve feribot iskelesine yurume mesafesinde.bence amlafinin konum olarak en guzel oteli

Cons:

Check in sirasinda otopark ve beach fiyati hakkında bilgi verilmedi. Havlunuzu alip beache gecebilirsiniz dendi acikcasi otel musterilerine ucretli oldugunu bilseydim yakindaki baska bir yere giderdim cunku deniz o kadar da kaliteli degildi. Teknelerin girip ciktigi bir bolumde .
Odalarda acikcasi kahve makinasi ya da kettle olmasini beklersim. 4 yildizli bir otelde plmasi gereken bir konfordur.

Great hotel, Perfect location, helpful & friendly staff!
Pros:

Perfect location, walking distance to the little city centre area of the Amalfi. We had a private sun lounge area with access to our own sea water seperate from everyone else visiting the coastline, so it was lovely and peaceful. Beautiful room, beautiful views, great service!

Cons:

On the 3rd floor the wifi connection was pretty much non existent so nothing loads if you’e just trying to relax in the room. Only fault, everything else was perfect.

Perfecto!
Pros:

I spend an average 150 to 200 nights per year in hotels every year for the past 15 years. La Bussola has become my favorite.

Cons:

My only complaint, and it’s minor, is the music played during the 5pm cocktail hour. I only visited the rooftop once, but when I did there were 3 other couples already there, and all looked to be like me, in their 60’s.
The music playing was electronic, driving, a little too loud and repetitive. Needless to say all 3 tables left after one drink. My recommendation would be to play calming music, like the view. Save the electronic music for the younger crowd.

Lovely Breathtaking Views
Pros:

Lovely hotel right across from the water with breathtaking views of the coast. Lobby and common areas have a nice welcoming feeling. Rooms are spacious and immaculate. Towels and sheets were changed every day with a new supply of toiletries. The A/C was pretty good, although we had better in other Italian hotels. Breakfast was delicious and service impeccable. The only issue was the rooftop bar that plays loud music until 10 pm and we were on the 3rd floor so two of the three nights were a bit noisy. Aside from that it was a great place.

Beautiful hotel in Amalfi on the water
Pros:

This hotel is located well on the water and about a five minute walk from the ferry if you’re arriving to Amalfi that way. The hotel is very clean. We had a corner room with two balconies overlooking the side and the water in the front. The bed was comfortable. Breakfast was very good. And service at breakfast buffet was excellent as well.
We both travel frequently throughout the year for work and comparing this experience. We would definitely return to this hotel!
