Hotel Croce di Amalfi

The hotel has a great location and the breakfast was good. Our air conditioning didn’t work well and it was very, very hot in our room. The staff said it was working , but it really wasn’t working at peak capacity it was very stuffy and still humid. We tried to have our window open at night but the noise from the streets kept us awake.

Hotel claims there are 77 steps. We had 109 steps to get to our room. Staff do not know what a smile is. They are very cold and ignored when I complained the TV does not work. It switches on, but no channels! I informed reception from our first day. I reminded them every day but they never attempted to solve it. They just smirk. Breakfast is very poor. Staff ignore you and you have to literally beg for coffee. Coffee is excellent though. Hotel has an excellent location if you don't mind the steps.

Cons: - Air conditioning was locked on low at 29*C/84*F - Wifi only worked near the room entrance - Complimentary breakfast included bland breads and terrible coffee - Situated on busy street with extremely loud traffic all day and night *All of this resulted in zero sleep* Pros: - Situated near the port and Piazza Duomo

The pros: beautiful views and location is close to ferries and the Duomo. The cons: You are on the busiest road (the only road) of Amalfi and it is LOUD all night. The air conditioning is not really AC, it is a fan that blows cool air (80 F/29 C) only if you are in the room with the key placed in the wall. Only one outlet actually fit plugs. The shower felt like it belonged in an RV. The room was cleaned, but towels were not replaced after days and our bedspread was taken and not returned (didn’t really need it as it was so hot in the room anyway). Breakfast is included, but should be skipped.

Nice place to stay with a lovely view. Amalfi very busy during the day - best to go out after the day trippers have gone. Bear in mind it is up 75 steps from the harbour. Ignore google maps from Piazza Favio Gioia, take the underpass below the coast road near the Arsenale

Very nice and quaint boutique hotel with very few rooms. Nice sea view room but facilities seem a bit dated. b'fast was OK. Very hard to find when we arrived so our driver dropped us by the harbour. Many steps to carry luggage, so not recommended for travellers who are physically challenged. But very charming, nice terasse with sea view. Helpful staff and close to Piazza del doge. I would likely stay again.
