Pros:

The view from the balcony was beautiful! We received breakfast delivered on our balcony each morning. The location was excellent- along the water, next to Franco’s and Le Sireneuse- which was excellent for a post dinner cocktail. We highly recommend L’Ancora!

Acolhimento e vista privilegiada em Positano.
Pros:

Excelente localização, apartamento amplo com linda vista. Funcionários muito atenciosos, limpeza cuidadosa, inclusive trocas de toalhas até 2 vezes por dia. Comodidades como água de cortesia diariamente. Notamos o interesse em fazer valer o custo da acomodação.

Cons:

O restaurante estava inoperante. O café-da-manhã era servido no quarto em horário e com conteúdo especificados de véspera, o que nos exigia um planejamento prévio, nem sempre conveniente.

Trevligt hotell med bra läge men dyrt
Pros:

Härlig miljö och fantastisk utsikt. Mysiga gränder
God frukost med mycket att välja bland
Tyvärr fick vi äta på rummet vid skrivbordet då restaurangen var stängd och skulle vara några veckor till. Ingen information om detta vid bokning
Maten var ju då inte tillräckligt varm när den levererades och kall cappuccino. Jag värmde vattnet i vattenkokaren så blev kaffet bättre.

Cons:

Äta på rummet
Rumspriset var för högt mot vad man får för pengarna.

Prachtig hotel op goede locatie met zeer vriendelijk personeel.
Pros:

Het hotel ligt op een hele mooie locatie. Doordat deze een beetje in het midden ligt kun je alleen het uitzicht van de rechterkant zien. Maar dit was heel erg mooi. Je bent zo beneden in het winkel gebied. Het hotel heeft de mogelijkheid om bij het zuster hotel Covo dei Saraceni de dag/middag door te brengen bij het zwembad. Je betaald hier €80,- voor waarvan €50,- te besteden aan eten/drankjes. Het is niet mega goedkoop maar zeker de moeite waard. En echt een prachtig uitzicht. Het personeel op beide locaties waren enorm vriendelijk.
Het ontbijt wordt op de kamer bezorgd. leuke ervaring met het uitzicht vanuit je balkon.
De kamer was van alle gemakken voorzien.

Cons:

Ik zou persoonlijk voor het ontbijt toch naar de ontbijt ruimte gaan. Nu moest je van te voren aangeven wat je wilde eten, maar er bleef best veel over.
De bedden waren erg hard en daardoor niet comfortabel, maar dat is natuurlijk persoonlijk. Ook had de douche (in het bad) geen douchegordijn of deur. Dus alles werd nat.
Het is een mooi hotel maar je betaald wel echt voor de naam van het dorpje.
