Location could not be beat! Walking distance to train, ferry and bus terminals and shopping/restaurants.

*Location: A lovely boutique hotel in Salerno. The location is perfect — right on the main shopping street, steps away from great restaurants, the train station, and a beautiful seaside promenade with a flower-filled park that felt like a hidden gem. * Hotel: The hotel room was small but so thoughtfully designed. Every inch was smartly used, with space for our luggage and all the little touches that made it feel welcoming. The bed and pillows were super comfortable, and the elevator was a nice bonus. We parked in a nearby garage recommended by the hotel — it was reasonably priced and just around the corner. * Breakfast was served in the most charming little restaurant downstairs, elegant and cozy. The food was delicious with options for every dietary need, and the coffee was the best! Absolutely perfect. * Staff: The highlight for us was the hotel staff — kind, attentive, and incredibly professional. They made everything feel effortless, always available when needed without being intrusive. You can tell they genuinely care about their guests and take pride in every detail of their work. From warm greetings to helpful suggestions, they truly made us feel at home.

The only downside was Salerno town itself. While still charming in many ways, the city felt a bit neglected — litter and graffiti on old buildings made parts of it look worn. Still, the hotel made our stay wonderful, and we’re grateful for the experience.

A gem of a hotel. 🏨 We spent several nights at the hotel and it’s in a fantastic location for exploring the Amalfi coast. Bang next to the train station and also the bus stop for the Amalfi bus which stops at the major towns. The staff are superb (special shout out to the more mature gentleman in the red jacket who tends breakfast and other duties) he’s a credit to the hotel and adds a definite touch of charm to the establishment. Breakfast was excellent with a large selection of cakes and cereal and bread and ham, mozzarella, various fruit and yoghurts and boiled eggs. Coffee can be made to order. All of the staff were friendly and attentive which is always a sign of a well run hotel. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. There’s a small mini bar with basic drinks like beer and coke and water but we didn’t use it. The bathroom was spacious and the walk-in shower superb. Water always hot and pressure good. A definite must after a long day exploring. Would have been nice to have body cream. There was just only 2 shower gel/shampoo bottles. We asked down at the reception for a kettle and they gladly provided one plus cups and saucers and sugar and tea spoons on a well presented tray. The air conditioning worked very efficiently and quietly. The main town of Salerno is right outside your door and it’s worth taking some time to wander the streets and alleyways as there are some outstanding examples of historic architecture. The crypt of St Mathew in the Cathedral is jaw dropping, even if you’re not religious. We got a ticket for three venues ( all close to each other) and were astounded by the art on display. Also recommend you visit the archeological museum which is free. Highly recommend two restaurants for authentic regional food: Mariterraneo , run by Anna and her husband chef Emiliano on Via G Ruggi d’aragona and also La Lampara da Pepe Seccia on Via Dogana Vecchia for a Nonna cooked feast.

Maybe some body cream in bathroom would be a nice touch.

This Hotel is in the perfect position just an easy 3-4 minute walk directly opposite the Central station. It is also less than a 10 minute walk from the Ferry terminal where you can take a ferry out to the islands or up the Amalfi Coast. Just outside the front door is the main pedestrian thoroughfare with numerous bars right there and restaurants just a short walk away. The room was spotlessly clean and comfortable and quite roomy in comparison to many Italian Hotels. The breakfast was very generous and delicious with a good range of savoury and sweet items. Staff were watching and replenishing items so that guests didn’t have to ask. It was clear that the staff were proud of their hotel and its breakfast offerings. One of the things we liked the most was the greeting we received every time we arrived at or left the hotel. Never once were we not acknowledged. This made us feel valued as their guests. We would definitely choose this hotel again if we return to Salerno and highly recommend it to you.

Absolutely nothing!

With a few steps out of the Salerno train station it was lovely to arrive at this family hotel, with friendly staff. When I arrived in my single room, I was happily impressed by the high ceilings, the air-conditioning and the smell of soap. For a small room, it felt spacious with good eye for detail. The bed was good, and the internet worked perfectly fine. In the morning I enjoyed the breakfast, by which I felt like entering a bakery.

It would be a nice addition to have real glasses, instead of plastic cups in the rooms.

This hotel is so incredibly close to the Salerno train station, the buses that run to different stops in the Amalfi Coast, and is a short walk to the ferry. The hotel room I had was so big for just one person. For what I paid, it was probably the most bang for the buck in terms of all the places I stayed during my 3 week vacation in Italy in Oct/Nov 2024. I would book here again, rather than staying in Amalfi or Positano, since it's so conveniently located to buses and ferries for day trips. I also enjoyed the continental breakfast.

The shower wasn't draining properly so I was worried it would overflow, but luckily it didn't. No complaints otherwise.

We had a trip from the USA to Italy for 10 days. We stayed at the Plaza Hotel in Salerno for 3 nights. It is a wonderful hotel and one of the best hotels that we’ve been. Very convenient location. About 2-3 minutes of walk distance from the train station and bus station, 5 minutes of walk distance from the Ferry for Amalfi or Positano, walk distance from the beaches, Old town, new town and downtown of Salerno. Very clean facility including inside the room and public areas. The Hotel provides great breakfast. Artist style designed restaurant. The hotel staffs are very friendly.

Excellent location – very close to the train station; bus stops & harbor to catch ferries. The hotel was clean. The balcony of our room overlooked the main promenade so we could people watch. It was very quiet at night. Breakfast was delicious – with a wide variety of fresh items, and a member of the hotel staff who made coffee drinks to order. The hotel staff was extraordinarily helpful and friendly. They assisted us in buying bus tickets; made restaurant recommendations; even directed us to a self-serve laundromat so we could wash our clothes. The staff demonstrated pride in the hotel. We will carry fond memories of our stay at the Hotel Plaza!

No critical comments about this amazing hotel.

Surprisingly, received a warm welcome (and farewell) from the owner, Signore Gaetano who gave a tour of the reception and breakfast area with beautiful family paintings (like an art gallery). Efficient and helpful staff at the reception (Fabio, Andrea and Ylenia; did not meet the night staff but he should also be very good) and the breakfast staff who were also helpful and provided good service. Excellent location in the center close to the main plaza, train and ferry station and pedestrian street, while rooms are surprisingly quiet. Good breakfast with a variety of bread, fruits, pastries, cold cuts, eggs and cheese and freshly prepared coffee. Rooms are spacious with high ceilings, clean, while beds are firm and pillows comfortable. Bathrooms are clean with enough space for cosmetics and with large bath towel and hair dryer. I will strongly recommend this hotel.

So, let me tell you about this awesome hotel my family and I stayed at in Salerno, Italy. First off, the location was killer! But you know what really made our stay special? The staff. These guys were like the friendliest bunch of people ever! They went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and made us feel right at home. The room was no joke. Spacious, squeaky clean, and so dang comfy! We slept like babies every night. Oh, and the breakfast buffet? Italian Style! They had enough to fill your appetite. All in all, it was a family trip to remember, thanks to that amazing hotel.

The Elevator was scary. It needs to have sensors to understand if somebody is still entering or exiting this. I almost got stuck and it made me more cautious to decide whether to use the elevator or not.
