The Villa Franca was an amazing find in Positano. This quaint hotel at the top of the hill overlooking the Amalfi coast couldnt be better, expecially considering the price. We were looking for a nice place but did not want to pay the outrageous prices of many of the hotels here like le serenuse and hotel caruso. It made our... more

Have just returned home from a relaxing week with my wife at the Villa Franca. We arrived in the late evening and were warmly welcomed and immediately offered a free room uprade as the there was a superior room available in the annex. The view from the balcony was absolutely gorgeous and the room was superb. We ate dinner at... more

Hotel Villa Franca is a beautiful white stucco hotel located toward the top of Positano. The restaurant, which is all windows, is outstanding and the breakfast that is included with the room rate was the best we had while in Italy, especially the coffee! The roof top pool is amazing! The hotel provides a complimentary shuttle to the center of... more

This hotel was a wonderful pick. It was elegantly decorated and the staff was very helpful. Since it is situated at the top of the town, the free shuttle was a bonus. We walked down each day and didn't have to walk back up! The breakfast was great with pizza, meats and cheeses, many cakes and pastries, scrambled eggs, cereal,... more

We stayed at the Villa Franca for our 25th anniversary mid-September 2009. The requested 'deluxe room with balcony and jacuzzi' proved to be a small, claustrophobic, tired room with a tiny cramped balcony and non-functioning jacuzzi. The location of the hotel does provide spectacular views but the services and amenities do not justify the high rates. I would recommend Albergo... more

We had a wonderful time on the Amalfi Coast overall, but our stay at the inconveniently located Villa Franca was a huge disappointment. Bathroom was cramped, the closet was tiny and the so-called Delux room was so overpriced, we thought it was a joke. We stayed at other first class hotels that were so much better than this one. Villa... more

Hotel Villa Franca was a wonderful choice for our stay in Positano. The location is lovely with spectacular views. It is located on a mountain, so there is a long walk down (longer up!) to the town and the beach. We enjoyed the walking, but some will find it too strenuous. If so, the hotel offers a shuttle between the... more

Visiting Positano in mid July ment that this hotel was certainly not cheap. However it fell far short of expectations, as a four star. Our room smelt damp and was very basic (although the balcony was lovely) and at the bottom of a stairwell, we could hear magnified converstations of any fellow guests coming and going (and the american in... more

We have just returned from our two week honeymoon at the Villa Franca in Positano. Positano is the most romantic and beautiful place we have ever been with breath taking views at every corner. Villa Franca is a beautiful hotel which is run by a very friendly and attentive family. We never experienced any problems with any of the staff... more
