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

My husband and I stayed at Il San Pietro at the end of April '08. The views and the service were incredible. We went right before the busy season so the hotel was very quiet. When we would go to the front desk they were always very helpful and friendly. I was afraid they would treat us like riff-raff (we're... more

I just want to tell anyone that is considering staying at Hotel Il San Pietro to stop considering....and do it! You won't regret a thing! I was a culinary intern there for 3 months and just could not believe how wonderful this place was. It is owned and operated by a mother and her 2 sons whom of which had... more

My husband and I loved this hotel. We had a gorgeous and spacious room with balcony overlooking the ocean. The balcony had sun loungers and a table and chairs where we had our complimentary breakfast each morning. The gardens and beach area were stunning and we felt very glamourous lazing on our sun loungers with views out to Positano. While... more
