stayed for 25th wedding anniversary. we have both travelled a lot and stayed in some of the world's best locations and hotels. summary the best ever hotel for us - will go back - based on a combination of setting, position,food, service, atmosphere and a real "magic feel" and very good value in comparison with similar hotels positives: room -... more

Okay, you probably could find a place that was newer, perhaps fancier. There are probably places with staff that are better, but for an overall experience the San Pietro is very, very hard to beat. It was simply one of the most remarkable hotels we have ever stayed at, and will stay with me for a long, long time. The... more

This was our second stay at this incredible resort. Two years ago we stayed here and were blown away. This year, when planning my daughter's high school graduation trip (which would include her and her 14yo sister), my husband, who doesn't look for ways to spend money, particularly in this dollar-unfriendly climate, insisted on returning here to show them easily... more

My husband and I recently spent a few weeks in Europe for our summer vacation. We spent two weeks in Italy and were not overwhelmed with any of the hotels we stayed in until we arrived at the Il San Pietro in Positano. If nothing else, the service and views make the hotel. We really liked being away from the... more

My wife and I travel frequently and we are picky about hotels. So there is no hyperbole when I say that we have never experienced a better hotel on a better site than Il San Pietro on the Amalfi coast. The hotel, which is built into a mountain with rooms overlooking the Mediterranean, is stunning. The rooms are different and... more

This hotel is a gorgeous touch of paradise overlooking an amazing sea and the town of Positano. Sitting on our terrace eating breakfast each morning was absolutely delightful! We did not leave the hotel one day, preferring to have breakie on our balcony, relax on the sunloungers by the sea while being waited on for drinks, lunch and the tweaking... more

We stayed for a special event for four days at €600 a day. For this price I was expecting exemplary service ( akin to that in Raffles Singapore for example). Instead the rooms were OK, the staff indifferent and dealt with complaints in an off-hand manner. EG breakfast was not delivered ( as no one collected the card hanging on... more

This is the best hotel I have ever stayed in! The views from the rooms, each of which is unique as the hotel spills down the cliff towards the ocean, are sublime. We had a view southeast towards Praiano. I was initally disappointed not to be looking at Positano, but the light of the setting sun on this other village... more

My wife and I travelled through Italy last month. We went through Rome, Capri, Positano and Venice. The Il San Pietro was our favorite hotel, by far, during our trip. The Il San Pietro has it all, a wonderful location with scenic views in every direction, extremely friendly and helpful staff, huge private outdoor space (composed of a patio, an... more
