Hotel Poseidon

A friend of my husband’s told him this was the nicest hotel they’ve ever stayed in which is what led us here for our 25th wedding anniversary. Hotel Poseidon did not disappoint! The views are matched only by the warmth and hospitality of the staff. Everyone we interacted with went above and beyond to make our four night stay special. Upon arrival we received a card to use at the hotel bar for a complimentary bottle of Prosecco. The servers for the bar area which extends to the poolside patio see the same beautiful view day after day. Yet they seem to understand that their guests are only visiting for a short time. The staff is aware people spend a good amount of time and resources to come to Positano and they want to make your stay a memorable one. Our favorite moments were spent on the patio watching the sunset with a glass of Prosecco or Aperol spritz. We also had an amazing dinner in the restaurant on our actual anniversary. The breakfast buffet was amazing as well! The hotel arranged drivers for us to and from the Naples train station who were professional and embodied the same spirit of hospitality.

A lifelong dream was finally realized by our stay at what I am forever convinced is the absolute best hotel you could possibly stay at in Positano. Service and Staff: From the moment we booked, Marco and Andrea reached out to us and helped coordinate just about everything imaginable. I had mentioned in passing we were celebrating a milestone anniversary, and upon arrival Marco informed us he made additional arrangements to secure a room with a particularly spectacular view. They treated us like family, or old friends and because of that we felt immediately at home. Aldo was available for every question, curiosity or need. I cannot say enough positive things about the entire team. Truly special. Location: Rather or not you are literally geographically “about half way up the mountain” you certainly feel as though you are exactly where you want to be. Exit to the left and walk down towards the shore and explore the heart of the shopping district within minutes. Exit to the right and head up to some of the best restaurants in the area. And the view, unlike anything I’ve ever seen. You are situated at just the right spot to take in the sun rise over the mountains, the ocean, and the famed vertical city itself in full panoramic perfection. Food: For our entire stay we never once strayed from the morning breakfast at Il Tridente as it had some of the most incredible pastries, coffee, juice etc around. The dinner at Il Tridente was where I experienced one of my favorite meals in all of Italy. The lobster risotto, even if you don’t like lobster or risotto is a dish you should consider as it may in fact change what you think about those two things. Rooms: plenty of space, very clean, incredibly important air conditioning. Overall: There are lot of places that tout themselves as being “the best hotel in Positano” and I’m sure they are all wonderful spots. But all of the little details come together at Hotel Poseidon, and the end result is it fells like a dream come true. Thank you Marco, Aldo, Andrea and the entire team for an absolutely incredible stay. We hope to be able to find our way back soon.

Gorgeous hotel with amazing staff. Every single person working there treated us with such care. They were able to arrange a very comfortable private transfer for us to and from the airport and book us a very nice couples massage and Amalfi coast boat tour last minute. We were there for our honeymoon and the desk staff made sure it was very special and provided extra accommodations for us. Absolutely stunning views and amazing food, perfect destination for us and we will stay here every time we visit Positano.

Cannot fault this hotel, perfect location, amazing views, attentive and very helpful staff and the restaurant food was excellent.

Loved our stay at Hotel Poseidon. Beautiful hotel. Amazing views. Wonderful, friendly and very helpful staff. Highly recommend this hotel if you’re staying in Positano. Furnishings are a bit outdated, but that is part of the charm. Hotel is pricey but so are most things in Positano.
