Hotel Villa Annalara Charme and Relax

The place is well located so you are near hiking trails and as close to the square, the beach, etc. It is well-maintained and the host tries his best to help. Breakfast was ample, tasty and you have it on the trrrace and have your fill of the beauty of Amalfi

Myself and my husband stayed here early October. Firstly, the hotel is in a great location. It’s close to amalfi centre, but far away enough to feel tranquil. The terrace area is great with beautiful views. The host/ owner is also incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. There are quite a few steps up to the hotel, however there is a lift available. Rooms could maybe do with a little upgrade. Only room for improvement would be breakfast which is extremely limited - although the coffee and pastries were great. Apart from the pastries we didn’t feel there was anything else we could eat.

The location was nice and far enough away from the centre to be quiet. Nice room and good view on the shared terrace - with two other rooms. This was the best room, so Salvatore told us and so it should be for €260 per night! However, two things were really shocking. Firstly, breakfast was dreadful. There was a four pot container with omelette, fried eggs, bacon and something else. However, it wasn’t hot as expected but chilled!! I mean - chilled fried eggs!! Even worse, we stayed 3 nights and the food never changed - it was exactly the same items!!! We had been warned off this by a nice American couple. I imagine it would have been riddled with bacteria. Other than cereal and fruit, the only edible food was a bread roll. Secondly however was far worse. When I cam to pay, the owner insisted on cash. I questioned this and he said it stated quite clearly in the terms. It certainly didn’t. And what business wants cash when banks charge double to bank it. He said if we want to pay by card it was an extra 10%. There is only one clear reason for this - cheating the tax man. How sad that some Italians continue to let their country down by cheating the state. This has only happened to us once before and strangely enough, that was in Amalfi also - some 5 years ago. Perhaps it is an Amalfi thing. A lovely location but so let down by its owner.

Great location and we would have certainly recommended this hotel except for the room we stayed in. Every room except Bougainville. You will love the views from the terrace and the calm and quiet after the bustling Amalfi town.

Very nice room but it had ants. I complained and the manager said he found only two ants, and did not spray. They were many many more than two aaunts and I was disappointed. Also many steps to get to it and then to my room. Not bad but I would stay elsewhere next time.

Great view of the ocean from the breakfast terrace. As already mentioned cars restricted so some walking with luggage and the small slow lift could be an issue for some. It rained and was cold so we were stuck in our room when on the hotel - there is nowhere you can sit or even stand in the hotel when it’s raining. Sitting on terraces is fine when the weather allows. It’s a B and B really. There’s no bar and there was no food available other than at breakfast - which was just ok.
