FRAUDE
La estadia era un precio elevado, pero decidi tomarla con vista al mar (amo!!) y por su ubicacion. Me dieron una habitacion diferente a la contratada, en un 1er piso sin vistas al mar, y sin balcon, y sin el espacio de sillon que aparece en las fotos. Tenia acceso a una terraza con unos paredones de 1,50m de altura, delimitada como una zona por una cerca, pero el de la habitacion de al lado podia pasar caminando frente a mi ventana y ver en el interior. La abitacion continua hacia el frente renia una libustrina, por lo que desde la habitacion nada de mar se podia ver. Ademas era mas pequeña de lo que figuraba en las fotos pues solo contaba con una cama y la circulacion en U perimetral. Cuando lo consulte con el hotel me respondieron que si era lo contratado ya que lo dice en la pagina (lo cual es mentiroso, porque ninguna foto hay de esta habitacion ni de estas NO vistas), y que si queria cambiarme debia pagar mas dinero, ya que las habitaciones de las fotos estaban todas ocupadas. Hotels.com no hizo nada tampoco para resolver esto solo me ofrecio puntos en sus istema para una proxima estadia. Luego entre a la pagina del hotel y para mi sorpresa me encontre que ademas habia abonado un 20% mas caro. FRAUDULENTO todo, el manejo, el cobro, la falta de solucion, el pedido de mas dinero. Decidi no hacerme mala sangre pero me parece importante dejarlo en las reseñas tanto por el hotel como por la app que ninguno fue capaz de dar una solucion satisfactoria.
Falta de intimidad, habitacion pequeña, sin visuales mas que a la aldera de la montaña y no al mar como estaba contratado, sin balcòn

Was easy to get from the port to the hotel, only a few minutes walk. The view and private beach are amazing. Hotel has a very nice restaurant. The area includes many nice restaurants and is not far from the main square where there's lots of shops and dining options. Would definitely stay here again.

Great location close to ferry drop off, shopping, and restaurants. They were quick to check us in and even checked us in a little early. When we settled in our room, we got a knock on the door and were greeted with complimentary champagne. They recommended us where to rent a scooter and even called to help make accommodations if we needed. Everyone was very helpful. A great stay overall with great service. Thank you to all the staff for making this an amazing trip! It’s definitely hard to leave here.

We had a view and balcony facing the water. It was a little loud at night but that's because we had the windows open/shutters closed to let in the breeze. Room itself had a comfortable bed, pillows and nice bathroom. We found the staff at the desk to be very friendly and helpful. The buffet breakfast was very good with many choices and delicious made to order coffees. The location was close to the ferry, bus and main shopping street of Amalfi. We would stay here again. The staff also helped us arrange a driver to Naples for departure.

Nice location, not so nice in assisting
When we stayed it was a little warm but the AC broke so had to sleep with the balcony door open. People walking by making noises at all hours of the night. Didn’t get a good sleep. When we checked out, ask the receptionist if she can called us a taxi. Instead of helping she told us to walk to the taxi stop. I don’t understand how she couldn’t take a few minutes to call a taxi. It wasn’t like she was busy. So we ended there waiting for almost 30 mins trying to get a taxi but most were already reserved. Hotel could be a little more accommodating. Probably won’t stay there again due to this.
