The Cathedral of Saint Andrew dominates Amalfi's Piazza del Duomo with its striking Arab-Norman facade and golden mosaics. Built in the 9th century and expanded over the centuries, it is the spiritual and architectural heart of the town. Hotels near Amalfi Cathedral place you steps from the historic centre, terraced lemon groves, and the azure Tyrrhenian Sea.
Our Picks — Amalfi Coast
Positano
Perched on a cliff face between Positano and Praiano, with rooms and suites carved directly into the rock face — each with a private balcony over the sea and a glass-panelled lift descending to a private beach. One of the most romantic hotel settings in Italy.
Positano
The defining address of Positano — a converted 18th-century aristocratic villa that has anchored the village's creative and glamorous reputation since 1951, with a pool terrace, the celebrated Champagneria bar, and handmade ceramic-decorated rooms that have been unchanged for generations. John Steinbeck wrote about it for Harper's Bazaar.
Amalfi
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.
Ravello
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.
Ravello
A 12th-century pink villa spread across Ravello's hilltop with a pink pool terrace, a Michelin-starred restaurant (Rossellinis), and rooms of extraordinary colour and character. The atmosphere is more intimate and artistic than the Caruso, with similarly extraordinary views.
Praiano
A white-washed boutique hotel above the fishing village of Praiano with a cliffside pool, spectacular views of the Faraglioni rocks and sea, and a quieter, more affordable alternative to the Positano and Ravello luxury juggernauts. Adored by repeat visitors seeking authentic coast life.
