    Pros +

    • Spectacular in every way
    • Best hotel I’ve ever stayed at. Cannot wait to return! Service, rooms, beach club, food all 10/10
    • Service was some of the best I have ever experienced.

    Cons -

    • It is pretty expensive, and it felt a little uncomfortable when I was asked to tip the reservation and front desk staff when I am already paying over 3,000 Euro/night.
    • Remember this hotel first opened 120 years ago. It is not modern, or grand in any physical way. More like an elegant grandparent, the one that you envied for their style.
    • Nothing. It was all exquisite.

    Service is impeccable. Location cannot be beat. Views for days. Several excellent dining options, including a Michelin star restaurant. And an amazing breakfast buffet to start your day. You pay for all this excellence, but it is the best place to stay in Amalfi.

    Literally our stay could not have been any better. Like another reviewer said, come and stay at the Hotel Santa Caterina if you want to feel special. The hotel retains an aesthetic of old school class and hospitality that you don't find elsewhere; the staff are absolutely incredible and genuinely care about being as hospitable as possible - they're kind, thoughtful, pay attention to every detail (most you likely will never even perceive). The hotel is visually beautiful, the views are immaculate, the entire property smells like beautiful wisteria (in the spring), you have breakfast with the most breathtaking views you could possible imagine (no breakfast will be the same). Overall, this is perfection in hotel form.

    Nothing. It was all exquisite.

    9LynnePosted on: 4-25-2025

    The location is great, with beautiful sea views and views of Amalfi town. Breakfast was excellent, there was an extensive choice of fresh fruit, pastries, cold meats and cheeses, a hot buffet and also the option to order from a menu for something specific such as eggs benedict.The staff were very friendly and helpful, from concierge to breakfast waiters and housekeepers, shuttle drivers etc.

    Food. Views. Service.

    10DianePosted on: 11-30-2024

    HSC is my home when I am in Amalfi. Lovely and attentive staff. Always the most beautiful breakfast with a stunning view. Every room is exceptional.

    9SarahPosted on: 10-23-2024

    Loved the staff and the hotel itself. The breakfast was superb and the location was perfect to get to Amalfi and surrounding areas.

    They had a wedding on the day we arrived and we were only told on arrival that because of this we couldn’t have access to the pool and beach club which we were unhappy about.

    10Ann E. H.Posted on: 10-16-2024

    A truly beautiful hotel with lots of character and attention to detail, in facilities and staff. They upgraded our room to a junior suite with balcony, and gave us a half bottle of prosecco and treats (just because they could!). The food was all stellar as well, but the staff was exceptional. Truly a bucket list hotel!! Former monastery with lemon groves.

    I only disliked having to leave! I wish I could have stayed for a week or two, at least.

    10EwaPosted on: 9-7-2024

    A stunning hotel, located a few hundred meters from the busy center of Amalfi, the view from the hotel is like the most beautiful painting, we got a very beautiful room, full of stylish lamps and accessories, with an amazing view. The hotel has its own beach, which is not common on the Amalfi Coast, you can spend a day right by the sea. The hotel has two restaurants, including one right next to the beach, the Amalfi and sea view from the restaurant is amazing. Excellent breakfasts, service, everything. There is also a small souvenir shop and very beautiful handmade jewelry. Amazing place!

    Nothing, this was a perfect stay.

    10FrancescaPosted on: 8-30-2024

    Fantastic setting with impeccable service. Staff couldn’t do enough for us, in all of the restaurants at reception and by the pool. The bar is stunning and the food was delicious. Amazing choice at breakfast especially the pastries. Our room had some ants as it was in the garden so we were instantly upgraded to a stunning suite. The extra details from the restaurant recommendations, early check in, the Dyson hairdryer and the make up towel in the room, to being offered iced water throughout the day all added to an incredible stay. We loved the Prosecco and treats from the chef on arrival to celebrate our honeymoon too. This is an expensive hotel but it was a real treat and we would love to come back in future!

    Stunning location near Amalfi, beautiful descent down the cliff path to the beach area every morning

    10EmmaPosted on: 7-29-2024

    Everything was absolutely superb! We could not fault the excellence of the cuisine, the staff, the view - just spectacular!! Thank you so much, we hope to return again soon!

    10AngelaPosted on: 6-4-2024

    The staff here was so welcoming and kind. We were traveling with our four children, and were welcomed like family. They took such great care of us and made dinners and transportation so easy. And the location is phenomenal! Beautiful pool with steps leading down to the ocean.

    6GraemePosted on: 5-28-2024

    Liked the gardens. Lunch was superb

    Our room with a partial view of the sea was located beside the outside bistro restaurant. Could not sit out on balcony as too noisy. Was not worth the money

    10DanielaPosted on: 5-27-2024

    10VanPosted on: 5-13-2024
