Hotel california Positano

Fantastic hotel, couldn’t beat the location and the views are incredible! We were in room 61 which we like to think was the best room as we had a lovely corner window that showed the town and a balcony that viewed the sea and town. Staff were exceptional, the room was lovely and clean and the shower was huge! Breakfast was simple but lovely, couldn’t fault this hotel!

Perfect location! Staff went above and beyond my expectations. Extremely clean and comfortable. The restaurant Don Giovanni's is exceptional!! The view has to be the best in Positano. 20 out of 10!!! Thank you Albergo California I will always come back to you 💙

The staff was so nice, helpful, and attentive. The location is centrally located and the views are stunning. We enjoyed the fabulous breakfast overlooking the water. I can’t say enough good things about the staff — they really helped us when we forgot something at the hotel.

My husband and I stayed here, the view from our terrace was spectacular! Everyone was very friendly and helpful. A lot of stairs and steps throughout Positano, but that’s okay as you can burn off your pasta! We had a wonderful stay. Love this property!!

We had an amazing stay at Albergo California! The staff, owners, and service were exceptional. We wholeheartedly recommend this hotel. The view from our room was absolutely stunning!

My husband and I stayed here for three nights and we absolutely loved it! The location couldn’t be more perfect, the best view of Positano from the rooms and from the terrace. The rooms were very clean, felt like out of an Italian movie, supplied everything we needed, and the hotel was very quiet and restful after a busy day in Positano. The staff was very nice and accommodating, everyone helped with a smile. Breakfast food was delicious, loved all the options, especially the fresh squeezed orange juice, no hotel had one like it. Loved that I could order a decaf latte, most places didn’t know what I was talking about. They had a lovely bookshelf filled with different options for guests. We would definitely stay again, our balcony view was to the best, we loved our stay 1,000,000/10.

Our stay at Hotel California for our destination wedding was truly unforgettable. The staff organised a beautiful cocktail party for our guests, with music, delicious food, and a live saxophonist, making the evening magical. Their attention to detail and care made the whole experience so special for everyone. The rooms were picturesque with unique touches, immaculately clean, and spacious. I highly recommend this accommodation for anyone staying in Positano, as it’s perfectly central to the main town, beach, shops, and restaurants. Thank you for your dedication in helping us create such a memorable celebration and stay!

I recently stayed at here for a wedding in Positano and I must say it was an exceptional experience. The staff were incredibly accommodating, and the service was top-notch throughout our stay. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, providing a perfect retreat after the day's festivities. The views from the hotel were simply breathtaking, can’t beat it. They also hosted a cocktail party for the bride and groom, and the food was delicious—definitely a highlight of the evening. The atmosphere was fantastic, and the overall vibes were just right for a celebration. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a memorable stay in postiano!

Couldn't end my trip in Positano any better this hotel room was the best!!!! Super spacious and the view was to die for. Everyone was so nice and welcoming!! When I go back to Positano I am definitely going to stay here again!

Just came back from there. Second time at this place and it is awesome. Very close to city center and underground parking. The staff are like family, very kind and helpful.

Beautiful place with a great restaurant and helpful, friendly staff. The room was the most comfortable of all the hotels I stayed at during my trip to Italy. The balcony overlooking the city and water made the room perfect for a place like Positano.

Service with a smile and private balcony views to die for from the room. Food is 5 star to go along with the room.

Our recent stay was awesome and exceeded our expectations for the rate we paid. The hotel is about a 12-min walk from the port, if you know where you are going. Naturally we got lost so it took us about 25-min. Once you get off the ferry, PAY the 10 euros to have the port take your luggage to your hotel. It's worth it. There are no taxis or cars at the port, so you will either have to walk your luggage to your hotel, or pay for the service (very worth it). About the hotel itself, let's start with the staff which were SUPER friendly. John was the main person we interacted with, and I forgot the two men that helped with our bags (he's buff) and also forgot name of guy that provided us with wine glasses and an iron for our room. The hotel is not too far up, but it's not very low either. I think it was just perfectly located for us to get our steps in, but not so high up where we were dying every day. We arrived early but our room was ready, so we were able to check-in and make it on time to our lunch reservation. Breakfast was included in our stay. Wasn't the best but wasn't the worst. We kept it pretty simple with fruit and a light pastry, then made our way to lunch after a nice walk. One thing that is lacking is a gym, however it's not the end of the world; I climbed many stairs to make up for the difference of not exercising. The room is pretty big; I mean I am not used to this in Europe and I did get a room for three, but still, I could've easily had four or maybe even five in there with comfort. The décor screams vintage but in a nice manner. Aside that, it was very spacious, had a balcony, safe, and fridge. Also note there are quite a few mirrors outside the bathroom which helps when you have two girls getting ready. No pool that I know of and complimentary wifi worked fine. Overall, a great hotel and I would stay there again!

Incredibly friendly staff that made us feel very welcomed and comfortable. Excellent continental breakfast was served each morning which included a variety of fruit, pastries, meats, cheeses, cereal, and beverages with ample seating out on the veranda. Hotel is conveniently located off of the main road and offers amazing views of Positano, especially from rooms located on floors two and above. ​

Quite simply the most charming and wonderful hotel I've stayed in. If you're visiting Positano I would actively encourage you to stay here. It also has on-site car parking underneath the hotel, which is a real bonus if you've rented a car during your time on the Almalfi Coast. Ask for room 59, 60 or 61 for the most incredible views of Positano bay. Breakfast included is a really good selection and a great terrace that it's served on. The last mention goes to the staff in this hotel, the best hotel staff I've ever encountered. They have all the time in the world for you and love to chat and get to know you and help you get the most out of your stay in Positano. I could not fault there service!

This establishment truly is as good as it gets. The view of the sea is spectacular, the service is personal and friendly without being overbearing. The rooms are clean and well air conditioned. We only ever ate breakfast there, which was perfectly nice on the veranda. Prices are reasonable. This place was recommended to me and it made the trip all the better!

Wonderful location. Stunning views. Staff goes above and beyond. Family owned and they take care of you like family. Beautiful terrace for breakfast or drinks. Breakfast is good. Rooms are spacious and have balcony with sweeping sea views. Air conditioning. Parking onsite. Right in town with many shops and restaurants nearby. Beach is 5 minute walk. Bus stop connection up hill 5 minutes. Dont miss out on this great place!
