Grand Hotel Convento di Amalfi

A 5 night stay was in this truly exceptional hotel. Yes it is at the top of the price range but if you can sample it , try it !!. Set in the hillside above Amalfi harbour/town the views are stunning. Breakfast on the sun kissed verandah , overlooking the Amalfi Bay and away from the hustle and bustle of the town. A complimentary hotel bus shuttle runs you to and from town each day , so no need to walk the hill or negotiate the steps. The staff are perhaps the most welcoming and helpful we have come across. Average size room with all top range toiletries and towels. One minor lower mark was the small wardrobe/drawer space which was slighlty limiting. I cannot praise this hotel more than I have - you have to try it.

Amazing hotel with breathtaking views of Amalfi. Very tranquil. Beautiful gardens and very nice swimming pool. Really nice bedrooms with sea view. Very good breakfast on the most beautiful terrace. Delicious food in both restaurants but especially in the fine dining one where we had an excellent dinner. Excellent service and very attentive and helpful staff. Short walk to Amalfi or shuttle car available.

Beautiful resort overlooking the Amalfi coast. Very serene and relaxing. Only negative was the lack of air-conditioning which made it uncomfortable to sleep at night

Staying at Anantara Amalfi was a wonderful experience. The interior design is truly unique, blending modern elements with charming historical details. Our room offered a stunning ocean view, which made the stay even more special. We especially appreciated Roberto at the reception—he was incredibly enthusiastic and helpful, providing excellent guidance on transportation and local attractions.

This hotel has all the elements of a five star….the property is beautiful and historic, the decor is modern and clean, the setting is perfect….except, the service was marginal. My daughter and I arrived early (approximately 3 hours before check in) and our room was not ready, which is fine. Except we were offered a complimentary lemonade, and nothing else. We waited at the same spot on the terrace…never moved, and were not approached the entire time by any hotel staff. While waiting we would have at the very least ordered a drink and gladly paid for it, and we even would have eaten lunch. No one—came to offer anything, and at approximately 2 1/2-3-hour time frame, I approached the desk to be told they “were just coming to tell us our room was ready.” We were escorted to the room, were given a brief review of the amenities, left to wait for our bags, which arrived approximately 15 minutes later. While looking over the room we noticed the bidet had hair in it, and could not operate the TV. At that point we decided to make the best of it, after all we were only there for 1 night. Well, the “distant” customer service behavior continued, with the exception of the bell staff, they were very accommodating and attentive. I would not recommend this hotel for the price—so expensive, and the service did not match the price by any means. For context, my daughter and I stayed at 3 other 5-star hotels during our trip, Hotel Grand Tremezzo, Is San Pietro di Positano, and Hotel Hassler, so we are accustomed to great service with beautiful accommodations. Thank you.
