Amazing location up in the hills above Salerno, around a 45-minute drive the next day to the airport. Felt like stepping back in time - but in a good way. Beautiful old building, carefully preserved and appropriately updated. We'd treated ourselves to a suite - the room was large, well-furnished and comfortable with a large terrace area which had a hot tub on it (which we didn't use). Pool area was great, swimming with swifts dipping in around you may not be for everyone but we enjoyed it! Best bit of all though - the staff. Unfailingly lovely and helpful. Special shout out to Gabriel from Patagonia. Great to see them seem to really enjoy working there, just makes for a lovely atmosphere. We walked around town after dinner to soak it up a bit, well worth taking the time to lose yourself in the little alleyways.

The food was OK. Breakfast the best of the bunch - especially if you like pasties. Lunch menu was quite basic but well cooked (we ignored the burgers had the grilled fish and the beef strips). Dinner menu was simple, local, rustic food - I guess we were just a bit surprised to see the pork belly come out with gravy on a bed of mashed potato a bit like the school dinners I used to have back in the day! So kind of no-frills, maybe not what you'd expect from a place this but the prices were also sensible so I guess that reflects that a bit.

Amazing hotel, quirky, different, lots of character. Lots of thought into every detail. Views spectacular! Staff couldn't do more to help and very friendly. If you want something to switch off and relax this is the perfect spot. Loved hikes and trail runs in the forest nearby. Abbey beside is spectacular.

Not many restaurants to choose from in the village. But hotel food was lovely! We didn't have a car but didn't mind the walk down to Cava de Tirreni and bus back up. Bring mosquito repellent.

Very attractive and well decorated hotel in a beautiful setting in the hills above Cavi Di Terreni / Salerno. We had a suite, which was very large, very nicely decorated and super-comfortable. Staff all very friendly and helpful. We had an excellent dinner there.

The hotel is not that easy to find - satnav seems to struggle with its exact location - and the entrance gateway into the parking area is very narrow, obviously dating back to the days before cars and explains why the majority of cars in these smaller, older Italian towns all seem to have multiple scrapes and scratches on their paintwork! Well worth the effort once you get there, however.

Nice for relaxing and a very nice view

Beautiful location . Fantastic panoramic views of the mountains . Charming old village location . Staff all impeccable . Food very good . Comfortable , traditional rooms . Good sir con.

Hard to criticise anything about this hotel . If you choose to stay here( which we did, and had a wonderful stay ) then you will need independent transport and be prepared to climb the steep narrow streets to get about . But for us that was part of the beauty and the charm

Quiet place, comfortable, a lot of possibilities to take time for yourself, to read, sleep at the swimming pool in a very nice place and view. A very good staff too

- Bedroom not the one we chose online (superior with balcony )they proposed a room with a terrace to share with 2 other rooms. After discussion another solution was proposed. - last day, the restaurant and another terrace were privatised for 2 events with music, games, ...all bedrooms have to support the noise untill ...am. as reminder we chose this place for the silence and tranquility. Nobody in the hotel was aware about it, no communications.

The hotel itself is very comfortable, room was big enaugh, beds were very comfy. Room and bathroom were very clean, everything was functional. Breakfast is very tasty, there is nice selection of local food. Food in a restaurant is also tasty. View from our room was amazing, but view from restaurant terrace was just braethtaking, just as view from the outdoor pool. Hotel gardens are spacious and pictureresuqe. Staff was very helpful - even when we arrived late, they let us order dinner 10 minutes before closing. Hotel has its own parking, even two of them, we used the one further away, which was free and spacious. Hotel is situated on ruins of medieval castle, it is surrounded by cosy little town, and just around the corner of hotel is situated amazing benedictine abbey form XI century.

Design of the room and bathroom was little outdated, but it was the only flaw.

Beautiful location, wonderful building / area, exceeded my expectations. The staff were friendly, especially the chap working in the bar/gelateria, he was always a friendly face to see after a nice meal. Location is rural but beautiful and the locals seemed to use the hotel over the weekend. A few nice restaurants within walking distance and an authentic experience of Italy at all of them. Would love to head back for a chilled weekend sometime.

Great staff from the moment we arrived… nothing was too much trouble. The views from the terrace are stunning and it was great every morning enjoying them over breakfast and the evening meal. The standard of food was a level above and the evenings were enjoyed at the outside bar in the courtyard style entrance. The hotel is up on a hill that is accessed through a medieval castle and the streets are particularly narrow which made the stay even more romantic. Easy access to the coast roads which are slow with sightseeing tourists or you can nip in to Naples on the toll road which is 40 minutes. Lots of walkers enjoying the hills. Wouldn’t hesitate staying again at this special privately owned (6 generations) gem… old school elegance that you struggle to find this days.

The facilities of the hotel are wonderful and there is a pool with a beautiful view. The restaurant is excellent. We enjoyed everything and in particular the pear and ricotta dessert was unforgettable.

Our double room was small. There is parking available for an extra fee. If you have a large car, it may be difficult to arrive in front of the hotel as there is a narrow street to get there. The staff was helpful to get our car through. Availability of sunbed at the pool is limited and all beds there were booked when we got there. There is no iron and ironing board made available for guests for safety reasons.
