Hotel Luna Convento

A former 12tth century monastery, located equidistant between Amalfi and Atrani, a 10-minute walk to either village and specifically the Amalfi ferry terminal. It exudes old-world charm – a centrally located cloister (including an outdoor bar) and all rooms overlook the Tyrrhenian Sea and Amalfi. It also has a very unique swimming pool (located along the sea – you can actually access the Mediterranean). While some prior reviews may suggest the rooms are ‘dated’, we found them to have all the ‘modern’ conveniences and amenities we desired. In comparison to the other luxury choices in the area, Hotel Luna was priced much more reasonably – including an incredible daily free breakfast. We also had a dinner and a lunch, and although I rarely am impressed with hotel restaurants, a sudden rainstorm fortunately led us to their main dining room, which was superb and surprisingly reasonably priced, given the quality of the meal, ambiance and service. The pumpkin soup was amazing and their ‘Marinati’ (marinated anchovies & salmon – had again for lunch) was so good! MOST OF ALL, the staff quickly became more like our family…they could not have been more accommodating and engaging.

Hotel Luna Convento in Amalfi was truly one of the highlights of our trip. The location couldn’t have been better close to everything, but still felt peaceful and tucked away. The building itself is full of charm and history, which made it feel really special and unique.||Breakfast every morning was amazing fresh, delicious, and so much to choose from. But what really made the stay unforgettable was the staff. They were so kind, helpful, and went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of. It felt like the most authentic and thoughtful service we experienced the whole trip. We felt genuinely welcomed and looked after the entire time.||I’d come back here in a heartbeat!

Our travel agent booked Luna Convento for our recent trip to Amalfi. As we were celebrating our 50th Anniversary, we requested a suite. It was beyond our belief. Spacious with sitting room, bedroom, walk through closet area and 2 full bathrooms. We had a huge private balcony overlooking the sea. Every single personnel was most friendly, accommodating, and gave us great advice when we asked. The breakfast was wonderful! We also had dinner there our first night and it was exceptional with fantastic service. We were so impressed with the professionalism of the staff. Everyone was dressed in the appropriate uniforms including the waiters in white dinner jackets on the hottest nights!! All went out of their way to make us feel special. |We absolutely loved this old world hotel. We hated to leave!

Hotel Luna is a hidden gem in Amalfi, close to everything but still tucked away to relax by the pool or the beach. A historic convent turned into a hotel while preserving all of its history. Perfectly located on the top of the hill with great views of the Mediterranean Sea and the town of Amalfi. Also, just a short walk from the center of town and the ferry ports. A stay at Hotel Luna includes a delicious breakfast on the terrace overlooking the sea. We also had dinner at the hotel and I must say that the entire experience was delightful. Not only were the food and service great, but we were seated on the were outside terrace on a clear night overlooking the town and a bright, beautiful moon lighting up the sea, now I understand why the hotel is called "Luna". We decided to take a short ferry ride for a day trip to Positano. It was a great experience and we didn't have to pay the high hotel prices in Positano. We got to hop via ferry to other towns as well on day trips to check out during our time here. The pool and sea access cannot be beat. The rooms are great and the staff is always very friendly ready to help! The experience, the service, the views & it's proximity to other towns that are close by a short ferry ride make Hotel Luna a 5 star hotel I'm my book. If the Amalfi Coast is in your plans, check out Hotel Luna, you won't be disappointed.

Amazing 10 nights in Amalfi! Hotel Luna was perfect. The room was spotless, light and airy, balcony with a beautiful sea view. Breakfast was a delight, with an array of cold meats, cheese, eggs, bread, pastries, cakes. The staff were courteous and friendly. A shout out to Tony the night porter, he went out of his way to ensure our every need was met, what a star!⭐️ Take a trip on the local ferry to Positano and Capri, hire a boat with a skipper for the day and explore Amalfi Coast it’s worth the extra cost! Enjoy! Fiona & James

A Stay Filled with Peace and Timeless Beauty My husband and I visited Hotel Luna Convento in Amalfi this June, and it was everything I hoped it would be—and more. The hotel is steeped in the peaceful, reflective spirit of its former life as a monastery. There’s a serenity that seems to radiate from the stone walls, the cloistered courtyard, and the breathtaking views. Our accommodations were perfectly suited for us—comfortable, charming, and authentically Amalfi. My personal favorite was the seawater pool across the street, built right into the cliffside above the Mediterranean—it felt like a secret paradise. We especially loved the afternoon cocktail hour in the courtyard, a quiet, beautiful pause in the day, surrounded by flowers and soft light. Breakfast was another highlight: not only were the views over the coast spectacular, but the variety and quality of the spread exceeded expectations. From fresh fruit to pastries to savory options, every detail was cared for. Above all, the service at Luna Convento was exceptional. Every single member of the staff was gracious, warm, and attentive in a way that felt genuine. Their kindness added something intangible to our stay—something unforgettable. We left with full hearts and lasting memories. Hotel Luna Convento is a place of quiet magic, and we are already dreaming of our return.

Excellent hotel in great location. All of the staff were very pleasant and service oriented top notch. Rooms were very clean breakfast was very nice also Great little balcony with super view. Only complaint was the room was on two levels with bed and bathroom upstairs not good for someone with bad knees. The “shower” was also not acceptable for this expensive of a room. It’s not acceptable to have to hold a hand piece shower in a tub with one hand and try to wash your hair. Bathroom gets soaked! Need to update that

We felt welcome as soon as we entered the hotel. The hotel has friendly staff who understand five-star service, yet they create a very relaxed and informal atmosphere. We were especially touched when the staff showed us to our room and shared some of the hotel’s history with us. It’s clear that every member of staff is proud to work in such a special place.||The hotel itself is truly exceptional, with a lovely atmosphere, stunning views, a beautiful pool, and swim platforms next to the sunbeds so you can enjoy the scenery and swim in the sea. The breakfast was delicious. The hotel also benefits from an excellent location, within walking distance of everything and close to the centre of Amalfi Town.

Had the penthouse/ superior sea view room, a bit tedious to get to but the room itself was amazing. Nicest staff of anywhere ive ever stayed, restaurant was very good as well.

This restaurants view and food was absolutely amazing. The portion sizes are huge and the food is fresh and delicious. Prices are extremely reasonable, especially compared to other Amalfi restaurants. Service was great and everyone was attentive. Parking was fine, we came on a Vespa scooter and we're able to park in their small lot. If you're coming in a car you may not fit if they have a lot of other cars/scooters though. Tip: if you want to dine here make a reservation. We were able to call 24 hours ahead and get a spot the next night but when we arrived there were people trying to walk in without a reservation and there wasn't room that night.

We visited this past year, the antiquity of the hotel was great and the service was responsive. I wish I could have rated it higher. Here's the pros and cons: Pros: amazing views out the street side rooms and balconies. Outdoor restaurant was very good with attentive service. Room was very comfortable, we had a two story room with stone spiral stairs built into the structure. Close walk to the center town albeit a steep climb and watch for passing cars at high speeds on what is really a 1 1/2 lane two way road. I overall enjoyed the walks. Pool across the way with an amazing view of the sea. If you want to spend time in a clean, well kept 800 yr old structure and are willing to pay for it I would recommend with caveats below. Cons: Expensive, you are paying for the views and solitude that may be worth it to you, just be prepared. I felt like they took advantage of us twice, once we ordered a 30e bottle of wine and "mistakenly" received the older 60e version- our fault for not spotting the year difference between what was ordered and what was displayed prior to opening, perhaps.... the second was an arranged tour to Pompeii, again it was a pricey way to do it with a private driver but we wanted the flexibility. We paid by the hour and were promised to get back with 5 hrs or less, the driver chose to stop at a favorite photo location and as a result we went LITERALLY 5:05 for the trip, we were forced to pay for 6 hrs. Given the high hourly rate I thought that was unfair and we only found out the day after at which time it was not easy to dispute. Amalfi tips, downtown gets busy. Great little cafes for breakfast, but they don't open early! Don't try to convert USD, you can only do $200per day and that process takes 40 minutes.

Awesome hotel at the end of Amalfi! Used to be an old convent, so the place has tons of charm. There are plenty of common space to have a drink and relax, including the garden where we were treated to two glasses of champagne in honor of our honeymoon. There are lots of other Americans staying here so you'll likely make some friends and their breakfast buffet was the best we experienced in Italy. Great service all around, they even found us some medicine when my husband came down with a fever and were kind enough to answer all of our many questions. Be weary though, they will recommend the restaurant across the street and above from the hotel pool, which we found to be quite overpriced with curt wait staff, but truly awesome views!

Recently stayed and the staff pushed us to pay cash for the room up front for a discount. Very uncomfortable situation and we did not but did pay cash for our stay but did for the car service provided upon getting there and were assured it was all set. Our mistake for not pushing harder for a receipt but we were told upon leaving that we did not pay for the initial car service. The concierge said we can look at the video and I said yes, get the video to which he then refused. Our room had a strong odor of a non functioning septic system and we couldn't stand up straight in the shower. Extremely sketchy and will scam you for every cent you have. Do not stay at this hotel.

This place is the quintessential Amalfi coast experience. It is oozing with original charm and has been tastefully maintained. The rooms were clean and beautifully painted. The breakfast buffet and dinner were great and included with the room, huge bonus for families! Dominick and the staff were kind and very welcoming to us and our children. We adored our trip to Amalfi and will definitely return to Luna Convento. I would recommend this gorgeous place to anyone.

This is a nice hotel. The rooms are comfortable, but don't plan to spend a lot of time there, there's too much to see on the Amalfi coast! That said, who needs to pay up for a room with a balcony? Wi-Fi doors not work in the rooms. Only in common areas. Breakfast is nice. Buffet with a variety of traditional American and European favorites including fresh fruit and excellent coffee made to order. Branch out from the hotel for other meals, however, and be warned they'll try to get you to eat at their overpriced hotel restaurants, and there are great options in Amalfi. I'm not sure if there are better hotel options in Amalfi. I'd be inclined to investigate before returning to this hotel after our 5 night stay.

My husband and I were in Italy for our honeymoon/anniversary. Amalfi was our last stop and we stayed at the Hotel Luna Convento for the day of our anniversary. This was by far the best part of our 12 day trip! Eduardo gave us a warm welcome when we arrived, took our bags to the room and gave us great recommendations in the area. Antonio was friendly and accomodating and the lady who checked us let us stay keep our bags after check out while we waited for our ride to the airport. The rooms open up their french doors to a breath taking view of the sea and the pool is a secret little spot on a cliff over the sea. We had our anniversary at the Tower Restaurant across the street which was spectacular! I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Amalfi! Thank you for making our anniversary so special!

I just can't say enough good things about this hotel. It is spectacularly beautiful and has excellent views. The building is an ancient converted convent (hence the name) and the restoration was beautifully done. The ancient courtyard is a delight even if you do not sit there and read for a while. I also found the food in the hotel restaurant to be excellent. The hotel is just far enough out of the center of the tourist activity to be quiet yet also convenient. In addition, the hotel gave me a very nice room upgrade since it was offseason and probably because I dealt with them directly rather than using a third party. I highly recommend this hotel if you are staying in Amalfi Town.

Do not stay here if you enjoy warm showers. The shower was so small and the water was almost always cold. Occasionally, we got lucky and got some luke warm water. The first night, the staff blamed it on a boiler problem which they said was then fixed. After that, they said it was because everyone showered at the same time. There were 16 people in our group and no one had hot water. Other guests I spoke to in the hotel admitted the same. I showered at various times of the day to try to catch it when it was hot, but no luck. Also, the upholstered chairs and lamp shades in our room looked like they haven't been cleaned since the thirteenth century. The main areas of the hotel are beautiful, the pool area is gorgeous, the view is incredible, and the staff is pretty accommodating, hence the 2 stars. However, when I stay at a 4 star hotel, I expect a hot, or at least warm, shower. Never again would I stay here.

Luna Convento is a beautiful hotel and the staff is very friendly and accommodating. The views from the restaurant and our private balcony and terrace were gorgeous. I am only giving 3 stars because we had several issues that I wanted to briefly mention: 1) The wifi was terrible and often went out entirely. I know, we aren't supposed to be on our phones or computers all the time but my wife and I like to watch a little netflix before bed. This was difficult several nights during our 4 night stay. 2) The shower was too short to stand up and there was almost never hot water. Luke warm was about the best we got. We could not take a bath in the luxurious tub because the jets were broken and there was never enough hot water to fill the tub. Who wants to take a cold bath? 3) The ceilings in our room were very low. We paid $425/night USD, so it's not like we had the smallest cheapest room in the house. When we tried to move to a room with a higher ceiling, we were told the only one available would be another 100 Euros/night. Not worth it. Overall average. 4) We had laundry done. They did a good job. Upon checkout, we were informed that it was 60 Euros for the one load. Now, in fairness, we did not ask and it's not like 60 Euros breaks the bank for us. But, come on. 60 Euros to do one load of laundry! Ultimately, we enjoyed our stay and, again, cannot possibly say a bad thing about the staff. They were great!
