Belmond Hotel Caruso — Ravello
$$$$ Ultra-luxury
★ 9.6 Superb

Ravello's pinnacle of luxury — an 11th-century palazzo atop a 350-metre cliff above the Tyrrhenian Sea, with an infinity pool that appears to pour directly into the horizon, a Belmond spa, and gardens that have enchanted Greta Garbo and Humphrey Bogart. The greatest hotel view in Italy.

★ 9.1 Superb

A splendid 1880 villa set in lemon-grove gardens above Amalfi town, connected by private lift to its seawater swimming platforms below, with a restaurant serving authentic Amalfitano cuisine and rooms of refined simplicity. One of the best-value luxury hotels on the coast.

$$ Mid-range
★ 8.7 Excellent
