Our room was a suite with two balconies, and a picturesque view of the sea and Mt Vesuvius. Our room felt secluded and private. Beautiful and comfortable sofa and chairs in the room with all the bathroom amenities you would want. We would love to come back and spend more than the four nights we were there! I would highly recommend the hotel installing some safety features in the shower, as it is very slippery and there are no rails in the shower to hold on to. I would imagine someone has probably slipped. The breakfast was enjoyable and relaxing, the omelet maker girl was very nice! We really enjoyed walking the grounds including the cave to the waterside. It was a beautiful pool and very relaxing with drinks. I would also recommend the hotel accommodate travelers who would like to mail a post card and do it for them. Most hotels will mail it and even put the postage on the card. I would also recommend water to be handed out at the concierge or lobby desk for NO CHARGE. We had to pay 7 euros for one large bottle. We have stayed at other hotels and they just ask how many boxes of water we would like. This hotel is close walking into town, we would definitely go back!

What an amazing experience! To say my wife and I were pleasantly surprised with the way we were…read moretreated is an understatement! I was last in Capri 20 years ago and it has been my dream to always come back and to show my wife the amazing hospitality and beauty that is Capri/Anacapri. First off, you can call the hotel when you get to Marina Grande to let them know you've arrived and they will send a shuttle either for you and your luggage or just your luggage so you can go straight to the hotel or you can start exploring from the Marina and work your way up. To say we were shocked when we got to La Piazzetta and saw everyone in designer clothes and designer shops as far as the eye could see was an understatement, immediately I got a wave of imposter syndrome and regret of bringing us to a place in which we no longer belonged. Then, we got to the hotel. We got there very early, around 9:30am due to a sporting event happening during normal check-in time which was going to shut down the main road (the only way to get to the hotel) during normal check in hours, to see if we could store our baggage until after the sporting event ended and we could check-in. Not only was that not a problem, they immediately said "we can have your room ready in an hour and a half"! Granted, this was a special circumstance, please don't try to take advantage of their kindness unless it's a necessity. Not being prepared for how high-end Capri had become, we weren't necessarily "dressed the part", my cargo shorts and flannel/North Face fleece surely stuck out to them but they didn't let it show to us. Not once were we treated any differently than the guests dressed head to toe in Fendi or any other designer you could name (believe me, if you can name it, we saw it). At one point, we were leaving for the morning and a staff member asked which room we were in, I misunderstood and thought they were a lost guest because of how well they were dressed and tried to give them directions on which rooms were where (insert face-palm emoji here)! She gave me the Italian version of "oh, bless your heart" more or less, lol. The hotel has a shuttle that runs all day and into the evening to and from La Piazzetta which was such a great perk, it runs every 15 minutes, the drivers were all very professional and friendly! We were greeted each time we entered the lobby with smiles and welcomes and were asked how our day was or what our plans were, how our boat tour went, etc. The entire staff went above and beyond with kindness and hospitality and they don't know how much that truly meant to us both. The room was immaculate! We had a seaside view, you can see the Faraglioni Rocks from the hotel and we could see them perfectly from our private terrace as well, they happen to be one of if not my most favorite things that I've ever seen and I've been dreaming of seeing them again since I first came to the island as a teen. To wake up to and see the sunset with them was a treasure. The hotel has more than one restaurant, we dined at the main one just off the lobby and the food was delicious! The tomatoes in the caprese could not have been more fresh, the mozzarella di bufala was to die for, the seafood was local, dessert was fantastic! We were even given a traditional Limoncello shot with dessert but politely declined as I'm almost 2.5 years sober. This hotel will forever be the ONLY place we stay on Capri and I don't recall ever having an experience that made me feel like that about a hotel. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for such amazing and kind treatment!

Had a far less than ideal experience. The only redeeming quality was the view. Couple notable…read morethings happened: - To start, our room smelled very strongly of mildew/mold, which we suspected to be from lack of the hotel's regular servicing/maintenance of the AC unit. With lack of servicing, an AC unit can start growing mold spores inside. My bf is particularly sensitive to mildew/mold and it causes him to break out with an allergic reaction. We tried to explain this to the reception staff but they didn't seem to get it. We tried to have them at least clean the AC unit, which they were very slow to finally do and the process took about an hour and a half of us repeatedly going back up to reception to remind them. When it was finally "cleaned," we went back into the room and found that the staff had sprayed a horrible smelling strong air freshener in the room, clearly to try and cover up the mildew smell. The fragrance actually smelled WORSE than the mildew and I started getting a horrible headache. They weren't able to switch our rooms that night since the hotel was fully booked, which I understand, and unfortunately there were no other nearby hotels with availability for us and it was getting late into the evening. So, we slept in the room with the doors open to let the room air out. The staff never once offered us anything for the inconvenience -- when I asked whether they could at least knock off half the cost for the night, they said they couldn't do that and offered us some drinks instead. ??? The next day, they were able to switch us to a new room (they told us the night before that we would get a "nicer" room), and the new room was just the room right next door and felt smaller than the first and was not nicer by any means. Still a faint smell of mildew in the second room, but we were ready to just give up and put up with it. - The second room's toilet seat was broken which was another ordeal to get fixed. - Then we took a look at the AC unit in the second room and what do we see? Mold! Black mold. And we found mold growing on the telephone cord in the bathroom of the room. We told the reception staff and showed them pictures. They just didn't seem to get that mold in a hotel room is unacceptable and a literal health hazard. They then showed us around two more rooms which were fine but we, at a minimum, wanted a refund for the first night for the inconvenience caused, lost time on our vacation dealing with the issues and time spent changing rooms, and most importantly the health hazards posed to us by breathing in the mold. The reception staff person (Vincenzo) began getting more and more upset and raised his voice to us that he was getting impatient with our requests (well, so were we, we didn't want to deal with this on our vacation....). We contacted the booking agency (Hotels.com) and were on the phone with them for 45 minutes to try and get a refund for the first night. To keep it short, at first Hotels.com offered us just a 10% refund ($150). This was laughable and we *eventually* got them to refund us the first night. - We ended up taking a new third room at the hotel. I took a shower in this third room and after the shower noticed a large pool of water beneath the sink. Turns out that water was backing up out of the cleanup because of a buildup of soap scum and hair (um gross). We had maintenance come by to drain it and our entire suite smelled like sewer gas. To top that off, the bathroom has no fan for some reason which is foul, so the smell was stuck in the bathroom. Also, breakfast buffet, dinner, and bar drinks were mediocre. We ate dinner at the hotel one night and had grilled fish which was not seasoned at all and a foul smelling black liquid came out of the head of one of the king prawns we ate. Thankfully, we didn't get a stomach bug. The pasta we ate was good. Again, only positive thing about this place was the view. Will not be returning even if this is the last place available on Capri. The front staff person is also in major need of customer service training. His behavior was unacceptable. BEWARE BEFORE BOOKING!

An Unforgettable Stay at Hotel Villa Franca, Positano…read more Hotel Villa Franca offers the most breathtaking views of Positano and the sparkling sea--a setting that feels like a dream. The Michelin-starred restaurant, Li Galli by chef Savio Perna, delivers a truly exceptional dining experience. The rooftop with its swimming pool, restaurant, and lounge area is the perfect place to relax while taking in the spectacular panorama. Mornings begin with a generous breakfast and the hotel's spa and gym facilities provide the perfect balance of wellness and indulgence. From arrival to departure, the team's kindness and flawless service made my stay memorable. I was warmly welcomed with a bottle of Prosecco and pastries, and my room was upgraded to a beautiful, cozy sea-view room. The hotel's elegant design--with beautiful decorative pieces throughout--creates a sophisticated yet welcoming atmosphere. A thoughtful transfer service to the city makes exploring Positano effortless. My stay at Hotel Villa Franca was truly unforgettable; I cannot recommend it highly enough for anyone seeking luxury, comfort, and breathtaking beauty in Positano.

The minute we walked in, it smelled incredibly musty, and things didn't get any better because the AC barely worked. It was constantly warm and stuffy in the room, making it really hard to relax or get a good night's sleep. The property overall is just a very old hotel that is showing its age and could use some serious updating. Breakfast was another frustrating experience. It's set up like a buffet, but you aren't allowed to grab anything yourself, so you have to wait for the staff to serve you. Because of that, the lines back up and it takes forever just to get a plate. The food itself was just okay, nothing to write home about. The only saving grace was the view and the location, which was admittedly really nice. But honestly, a good view doesn't make up for a hot, musty room and slow service
