Excellent property, the restaurant alone is a destination place, and having the hotel located in the middle of the shopping area is positioned perfectly, built on the side of the mountain along the Almafi Coast. Rooms are beautiful and the view is beyond compare .

This hotel was amazing and the staff were so lovely and attentive. The only thing that could be improved is that the bed was really firm (no mattress topper) but other than that the room was perfect. The location is where you want to be, right in the middle with everything you need around it. Would definitely recommend!

Our stay at hotel L’ancora was absolutely wonderful. Positano has been my favorite town in Italy, I did not want to leave. This hotel made us feel at home with its amazing central location, great staff, and included breakfast was a big plus!! We even used the transfer service at the end of our trip to Naples train station and our driver was punctual and made sure to get us to the station safe and on time. I truly loved our stay and can’t wait to go back.

Staff was super helpful. Perfect location and easy to find and walk to. Room was quiet at night and the bed was comfy. Minibar was appreciated for water, coke and drinks if needed. Would rent here again. Great value for the location.
