I cannot stress enough how AMAZING this hotel was. I want to give a special thanks to Magda, she coordinated for us to help us solve an issue that came up with so much kindness, compassion, and helped me feel so much better and in good hands. I absolutely loved this place. The view from the room was an absolute dream, and the location was so incredible for us because we did not want to be in a loud area but wanted to be close to main Positano. It was a 20 min walk to the main beach, but this place was so amazing you almost didn’t even want to leave. The food at the restaurant was top-notch, and the wine selection, amazing. As another plus we are a gay couple and felt absolutely safe and at no point “othered” by staff, which does happen in other parts of Italy. Overall I cannot recommend this place enough. I just wished I stayed there longer.

A wonderful stay at Pupetto hotel. We had a sea view room with a balcony and absolutely loved the proximity to the beach, we could hear the water from our room. If you want a Positano hotel without stairs, this hotel is perfect. We are 26 so it only took us 5 minutes to walk to Positano town each morning. We stayed four nights and used the beach and the beach club restaurant. Hotel residents receive a discount on the beach chairs. The restaurant is exceptional. We are usually one to venture out for dinners but we had dinner twice at the hotel restaurant. The food was exquisite, pricey - but worth it and the restaurant staff were kind and accomodating. Breakfast was wonderful, I love the different pastries they had each morning. Thank you to the front desk for organising our Vespa hire and the porters for their assistance with our luggage’s.

Absolutely everything.

Before coming ask the hotel to tell you how it is best to come to their place. We went through long way with a lot of steps which was unnecessary. There are a perfect way to come from bus stop and port if you come with ferry. Don’t make our mistake😀

Had seen this Hotel on previous trips , always wanted to stay here , used to look a bit tired but absolutely immaculate and our room was lovely as was the balcony . stroll down some stairs to the beach and enjoyed the beach cafe and sun-beds which were discounted price.Easy and pleasant walk into Positano centre . Easy to get to the boats to take you elsewhere. breakfast was good and staff were really excellent friendly and so helpful , it felt like nothing was too much trouble especially reception. They also provide beach towels which was great.

Dinner menu was quite specialised we are vegetarians so not much choice .

Beach front hotel with panoramic views of sea and surrounding hills and cityscape from our room and balcony. Hotel had a cafe by their beach and above it a top notch restaurant for dinners with sea view. The breakfast is huge and delicious served by the sea. The courtyard is beautiful with flowers and lemon trees. A scenic path runs from the hotel to the port and town along the cliff side with breathtaking views at every point. The staff is friendly and efficient and rooms and amenities are great. This hotel is better than 4 & 5 star hotels we have stayed in Italy!

Nothing

View is incredible one of the best you'll ever wake up too, Beach a little disappointing very Stoney but the beaches on the coast line are all like this, Location is amazing in relation to how close to the beach you are & only a short walk along the beach front to reach Positano, But if you are not fit & able to deal with lots of stairs then this hotel may not be for you as getting down & back up is only for the fit hearted

Nothing it is what it is you cant moan about the stairs or beaches as they are exactly what the Amalfi coast is its a beautifully crazy place built on cliffs that make no sense but also make for an incredible experience.

This hotel was like a slice of secluded heaven. Our only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer. It’s only an 8min walk from the main part of town along the waterfront on a much nicer, much quieter beach. The town itself gets HECTIC busy with day trippers so we were very happy not to be staying in the thick of it. Staff were amazing (thank you Magda & Veronica!) We are a couple travelling with our 3mth old baby and the hotel had set up the cutest little cot for her. Room was spotless, modern and better than the photos. The ocean views from our room balcony were divine and the restaurant is fantastic. There’s also a beach club attached to the front of the hotel but very chilled vibe and closed at night so no loud noise - only the lovely sound of the ocean. This was easily our favourite hotel of our Italy trip - just book it!

None - we loved it all

Located right off the beach, in a slightly quieter part of Positano, this hotel was a dream! There is a quick path that takes you from the hotel to the port, make sure to call ahead and let them know you need a porter before arriving. There is also a path on the side of the hotel that leads you up into the center of town, away from the crowds. Beach access is right in front of the lobby, and there are beach chairs for rent. Also cannot understate how lovely it is to be away from the spring-breaker crowds on the main beach. The rooms are clean and well furnished, the shower is large and the water pressure is great. The balcony and the views are the real winners. You open the doors to a view of the ocean and fall asleep every night to the sounds of the waves. The restaurant's breakfast buffet was excellent, the dinner was great and the service was impeccable. The front desk staff was AMAZING. They helped us navigate to our excursions and even arranged a couple on our behalf when we didn't have luck with online or in-town tours.

Not a critique of the hotel, but it's a very long walk (with lots of stairs!) to the bus stops, keep that in mind when planning excursions. Guests do not get priority or discounts on the hotel beach club chairs.

The hotel gave us an early check in and upgraded room with balcony and full beach/seaview. The restaurant for dinner and at the beach club served excellent food and servers were all professional.

There is a serious security issue with trespassers having access to the roof of the hotel and thereby gaining access to the private balcony to our room - during the first night of our stay, at 3 in the morning we were woken up when someone jumped onto the roof, then onto our balcony and then fell off the balcony and through the roof covering the patio of the room below, leaving a blood trail and broken furniture. We heard rattling of our balcony doors. We are fortunate to have locked the balcony doors while sleeping or the intruder could have entered our room. We were told that hotel security also heard the loud noise but assumed it was someone moving around luggage. We also learned that this has happened before - trespassers jumping from the exterior stone stairs onto the roof.

The location being right on Fornillo beach and not the main Positano beach so it is less crowded. The hotel had a beach club but they do charge for the use of sun-beds and towels which is standard practice in Italy but we were able to have lunch and drinks and spend the whole day by the beach so well worth it. The porter service was so helpful as the hotel is at the bottom of a lot (and I mean) a lot of stairs so we didn’t have to lug suitcases down to the hotel and back up upon checkout. The staff are great above and beyond, friendly and so welcoming. Our hotel room was newly renovated and we had a magnificent view of the beach from our balcony.

Whilst the location is right on the beach the flip side to this is that to get to the main Positano shops/restaurants it is a decent hike up stairs and there are a lot (i mean a lot) of them, so be prepared for that which when it’s hot and humid can be taxing. The room did not have a kettle or coffee machine.
