We have just returned from a two night stay at this treasure of a hotel. I agree with the last comments that the hotel staff were superb. We had a superior room with a lovely balcony overlooking the town, church and beach. The bed was very comfortable and the room quiet (we slept through until 930am one morning...we were on... more

After reading all the reviews on Trip Advisor, I was expecting great things from the Posidon but I have to say that I was disappointed. Perhaps it was because I stayed in two amazing hotels earlier in the week (La Bandita in Tuscany and the Inn at the Roman Forum in Rome) that I was spoiled, but this hotel didn't... more

A model as to how a hotel should be run. Faultless and friendly service, without being over-familiar. The veranda bar staff were outstanding in this respect: professional and with fine attention to detail. Restaurant was excellent with a good selection of local wines. Our room was spacious and clean. Fine view over the coast and, unusually (for Positano) the hotel... more

I am finally getting down our thoughts about this wonderful hotel. We picked it based on all the great reviews and at the time it was #2 in Positano. We wanted to be a little up the hill away from all the tourists coming and going. And the pool looked so inviting. Since we have returned, I have been keeping... more

We had an asbolutely wonderful stay at the Hotel Poseidon. We had a junior suite which was very large, and simply but nicely furnished with a small outside patio to sit on in the evenings. The bathroom was a very good size with a separate shower. We did catch a peek at some of the standard rooms and they seemed... more

The Hotel Poseidon is a $250 a night hotel posing as a hotel worth twice the price. On the plus side, the staff is very friendly and helpful, but that is as far as it goes. Our room was tired and small, and rather spartan. The towels were threadbare and the soap and plastic cups were more Motel 6 than... more

From the time we arrived in Positano and at the Poseidon, we were made to feel at home and immediately feel in love with this place. Everyone was cheerful and more than just pleasant! Our room was a little small, but this is the European way. However, we had a large bath and patio. We didn't visit Positano to stay... more

When we arrived at the hotel, we were so excited to be in Positano. You cannot imagine the disappointment we felt when the front desk never once smiled upon greeting us. It was almost businesslike. Once we left the darkness of the lobby area and ascended to the second floor sitting and pool area, the view was so pretty, that... more

We spent our honeymoon in Positano and had a lovely suite at the Poseidon with a balcony overlooking the water and the winding town nestled in the cliffs. It was a wonderful visit and as others boasted, an extremely warm and accommodating staff. The food was very good, water hot and beds comfortable. You do have a hike to your... more

We stayed at the Hotel Poseidon for 3 nights in May 2008. We arrived in the afternoon on a Sunday. The reception we received was pleasant and polite. The bell hop took our luggage immediately up to our room while we checked in. The man checking us in was polite and gave us a couple of dinner recommendations. We stayed... more
