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.

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.

What a beautiful hotel out of the way, only a few miles from Vietri Sul Mare and the start of the Amalfi coast. The hotel is just beautiful and the views are breathtaking. It's in a small hamlet but there are 3 (really reasonable and tasty)restaurants that are walkable, and a cute little village shop for water , beers, snacks etc. The hotel were so helpful with calling taxis etc. The hotel breakfast was lovely , made even better with the view over the hills. The pool was fab. Just a beautiful few days in a lovely hotel. We got there on train from Naples to Salerno and then organised a taxi , we didn't have a car as we were happy to just chill near the hotel apart from a couple of days out which is when we just used a taxi to get to the coast and ferries.

Our suite was a good size, great layout, had all the facilities we needed including two bathrooms (one with a bath and the other with a shower), a very comfortable bed and cot for our baby. A huge balcony with seating and a hot tub. And most importantly an exceptional view. The rest of the hotel looked out onto the same stunning scenery whether you were dining at the restaurant or swimming in the pool. We ate nearly all our meals at the hotel and enjoyed them all immensely. The staff couldn't have been more helpful and quickly organised whatever our requests were from a massage to dining on our room balcony.

I only have one complaint: I couldn't borrow an iron because they only had industrial ones as part of a full laundry service.

Nestled in the tranquil mountains above Ravelo and the Amalfi coast, Hotel Scapolatiello whispered to us the decadence of a bygone era while exuding every inch chic vintage charm. Round every corner of this lovely gem of a hotel was a new delight. The abundance of butterflies, the chysantheums, the Serin swallow-like birds who would occasionally swoop and take sips from the deliciously cool pool. Nothing was too much trouble for the fantastic, friendly staff. From the pool boy getting our sun longers and complimentary towels, the waiters at breakfast and reception staff. Breakfast on the terrace was a highlight. Try the pizza in the restaurant 150m away. Yummy and only 4 Euros a pop.

They could have replenished the freshly cooked doughnuts at breakfast quicker. 😀

Incredible service, great staff and always very helpful / responsive. Breath taking location and view. Relaxing visit to the spa

Breakfast was a varied and good quality continental offering. Standard bedroom. Nice pool with beautiful mountain views. Loved the Pool Guy " Francisco" who gave us a 5* experience. Nice relaxed vibe about the hotel. Great location if you love the mountains and away from the hussle and bussle. Beautiful gardens add to the ambience.

For a hotel of this 4 star standard just a few of the staff seemed disinterested and aloof. Just going through the motions. This was mainly in the dining experience. Evening meal options were ok but not wowing. We dined quite a bit there but also had much more amazing sea food meals and other choices at restaurants in Amalfi, Positano and sorrento

Everything

Nothing

I stayed two extra nights before a tour. I loved the location high in the hills above a working town with proximity to Amalfi coast. There are walking trails right out of the door. My room was comfortable with a balcony and a great view; all the food was superb. I accessed the hotel on the no. 61 bus from the station at Cava di Tirreni. The area is very quiet - apart from the Sunday morning band which is all part of the atmosphere..

There was nothing I didn't like.

Absolutely everything. Attention to the guests was beyond what you would expect. We got in quite late, but still we're offered a lovely drink by the fireplace that was list just for us. Breakfast was great, filling and fresh. Birthday dinner: food was 5 star. They have organised a cake to our specification as well as amazing service. One of the ninights we were stuck waiting for a bus for two hours, and they had no trouble in picking us up :) Cannot fault anything at all. Very attentive and great customer service 👏
