We wil be spending three nights on the Amalfi Coast. Which town do you recommend we get our hotel at? Positano, Amalfi or Ravello?
I have a reservation available in Ravello at Graal Hotel for 459 Eur
I have a reservation in Amalfi at Hotel Bellevue for 420 Eur
I haven't looked at Positano yet.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Craig
Check out Hotel Villa San Michele, situated right on the coast below Ravello. We spent five nights there on our last trip and the place was fantastic!! Not fancy, but beautiful cliff side location, wonderfully warm people, and outstanding food!
Be aware, Hotel Bellevue is about a 1 1/2 miles from town. Walk took us about 40 minutes. Taxi back in the evening.
If you have a "balcony room" great seaviews. Most "garden rooms" look at
rocks covered with foliage.
Limited parking on the coast road.
Amalfi is the transportation hub.
Thanks. I decided on Villa Amore in Ravello.

I'd look into Sorrento for a first visit. It's a transportation hub and makes access to Capri, Pompeii and the rest of the coast easy
Lots of choices. Sorrento probably has the best transportation connections, I stayed in Positano and rode the local bus to Amalfi.
We enjoyed our stay at the Hotel California in Positano. The family (3 generations involved) were lovely and very helpful. The breakfast on the terrace has a breath taking view. If you go to Positano, don't miss the restaurant Scirroco.
Craig,
Is there a reason why you haven't included Sorrento on the list? The other locations have more "challenging" transportation connections, which will add both time and money to any day trips you plan to take. For example, Positano has no rail access, so is only accessible by bus, boat or rental car, and Ravello has similar issues.
