Hotels in Amalfi

La Bussola Hotel

The hotel is in a building that in 1900 was originally a pasta factory.  It is on the seafront and conveniently located, just a short walk to the center of the city. Your breakfast is included. (map)


Hotel Luna Convento

Almost two hundred years have passed after the conversion from a Franciscan monastery grounded in the thirteenth century by St Francis of Assisi first into an inn, and after that into a Historical hotel designated “Hotel Luna Convento” which has been continuously managed by five generations of the Barbaro family.

Cloister

It is one of the oldest cloisters in the Amalfi area, a spectacular example of Moorish architecture that leaves you amazed by the evocative mystic atmosphere that reigns after almost 800 years since its foundation in 1222, by Saint Francis of Assisi.


Hotel Antica Repubblica

Situated in the Historical Center, in one of the typical Amalfi alleys, overlooking the main road. Accessible by 29 steps from the main road or the alternative by “Piazza dei Dogi” with 4 steps. Just 50 meters from the Cathedral, 150 meters from the nearest beach and 200 meters from the port and bus station.
