After 22 years I decided to return to Palinuro were I have spent all my summer holidays as a kid. I remembered that, in the beginning of the 80's, King's Residence was the most luxurious and expensive hotel then. We arrived at the reception and a very friendly employee, Luisa, told us that they had upgrated us. On internet, we... More

I agree with the other comments, in that the setting is amazing, the views are spectacular and the pool is nice. We liked the fact that part of the pool was shallow enough for the kids to paddle about in and the other part was deep enough for them to swim and dive (and us). But no poolside service or... More

We stayed here for 5 nights it was a glorious location beautiful pool walk down to idyllic beach (maybe too many steps if you are elderly or injured) handy walk into town 10 minutes. Breakfasts are good staff very helpful dinner menu is limited and a bit pricey but you do get to look over fantastic view on lovely terrace.... More

We have recently returned from our honeymoon at this beautiful hotel and cannot recommend it highly enough. From the moment we arrived until we left we were treated like royalty by the wonderful staff. When we arrived, the lovely Louisa on Reception knew it was our honeymoon and advised us that they had upgraded us to a superior room as... More

The King Residence built alone on the highest peak of Palinuro overlooking away from the village and perched on the bluest of seas above the Baia del Buondormire (Sleep Tight's Bay) is a dream to live, relax and enjoy.

Very nice the regional park just on the outskirts of town. My opinion is to go there for a long weekend,... More

There are a real variety of reviews on here about the King's Residence and we worried about booking but eventually did due to the location. We went for 5 days in mid June this year, arrived from Pompeii by train and got the bus to Palinuro where we were picked up by King's Residence staff (we were charged for the... More

we stayed at this hotel last year and I felt I had to write to put the record straight. We had a lovely time, the rooms are not anything special, but its clean and had everything needed for a good time. The hotel staff do not speak a lot of English, but they are helpful and very good natured. We... More
