Hotel Poseidon

My husband and I had the most fabulous four days at Hotel Poseidon. The service, food, atmosphere, location, and room were all incredible. Our private room terrace and also the pool terrace overlooking Positano are so stunning. I asked for a fan to be put in our room and there was no issue. The staff at this hotel really go above and beyond. We had dinner one night at Il Tridente and it was delicious. I highly recommend this hotel!

View - 10/10 Hotel Room - 10/10 Noise - almost nothing for how busy of an area it is in! Fantastic place to be - its up high enough that you get a view but it's very walkable to the main areas. I give it one less star because this was a VERY nice hotel and it does not have conditioner just shampoo and body wash.

Absolutely spectacular! We couldn't have asked for a more romantic, relaxing location. The view of Positano from the pool deck and restaurant takes your breath away. The food was delicious and service was very attentive. Our room was charming and comfortable; bonus points for the service staff who were always in and out quickly. Everyone we met who worked at the hotel was very friendly.

Hotel Poseidon is a charming heritage stay in Positano, and our Room 19 was impressively spacious with thoughtful amenities, including a dedicated makeup mirror that made getting ready easy. Both dining and breakfast come with a stunning panoramic view, though capturing those iconic Instagram shots is now a bit harder because of the many umbrellas used for shade. Still, the atmosphere remains beautiful, and the staff are truly exceptional—warm, attentive, and always ready to help with anything you need. A lovely, comfortable stay overall.

Perhaps it is hard to mess up a hotel in Positano but this hotel was close to perfect. After much debate on room type, we booked a premium room ; these come with an exceptionally large private terrace and are reasonably private (if you're standing at the edge you can see the other balconies but not if you're lounging in a chair). The views are completely accurate and stunning. Note that if it is raining or recently rained, the balcony is pretty unusable without cover. The room itself was large with a reasonably modern bathroom (perhaps not in decor, but in function). A minibar with snacks was a nice touch. The hotel itself has many levels and stairs, which I think may be one of the reasons it maintains such a historic, boutique feel. Front desk staff were pleasant and helpful in arranging car transport and transport of bags down to the ferry. The breakfast each morning was fantastic, with the rising sun beautifully blocked by shades on their outdoor terrace. A small daily "newspaper" with facts about Amalfi Coast or Positano is a nice touch. We did not use the pool area, although it looked relatively small. That being said, the pool deck is beautiful and one could easily hang out there with amazing views if you wanted to book a cheaper room category. One thing to note: in April at least this hotel faces sunrise, not sunset. This can mean that your balcony is in shade during much of the afternoon and can get rather cool, and of course, you miss the sunsets.
