Grand Hotel Sant'Orsola

Fabulous experience! This is a wedding venue and it sits prepared for large, elegant events. Stunning decor and details. The hotel entry conceals it's large size. The staff are amazing by every measure and at every function. The views from our room are jaw dropping. Elevation is around 3200 feet and the temperature is great! The food and service are wonderful. This literally rises above the tourist frenzy in Amalfi and Positano. The walk into town is very pleasant and the shops are wonderful, especially La Fattoria del Castello where we made fresh mozzarella. Easy access by local bus.

Showers are dated and tiny. I’m 5’2 and barely fit. Bed is not comfortable.

This is amazing place to stay and relax, people on front desk very friendly and helpful with us

Great Restaurants near hotel, staff super helpful.

Large property with views in every direction. Great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of some of the better know places on the Amalfi coast.

View is amazing

We recently spent three unforgettable days at the Grand Hotel Sant’Orsola and it truly exceeded our expectations. The hotel is set in the calmest and most serene location, with breathtaking views that will stay with us forever. Our room came with a beautiful terrace overlooking the endless blue sea, with Capri Island and the dramatic cliffs visible in the distance — a view that felt like pure magic. The staff were exceptionally kind and attentive, always ready to help and make us feel welcome. Even though the hotel was hosting wedding events during our stay, the hospitality never faltered. Every detail was handled with care, from the amazing dinner menus to the wonderful wine selections. It was a perfect blend of relaxation, elegance, and warmth. Our stay at the Grand Hotel Sant’Orsola was truly memorable, and we cannot wait to return.

Great place to stay!

Worth the drive and money. Pino, the owner was awesome and staff was exceptional. Set us up with a massive room and belcony with spectacular views.

Love the view of the coast

Lovely hotel! The rooms facing the ocean have incredible views! Nice big rooms, friendly staff. The road up to Agerola is a little stressful if you are not used to the coastal roads, but you will get over it!

The view was amazing. Staff were very friendly and accomodating. Food was delicious.

The hotel was amazing with spectacular views. The staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Clean room & hotel. Great staff! There’s a pool on the 5th floor. But the best part is the view! The most breathtaking beautiful view of the Amalfi coast. The entire staff is super friendly, kind, personable and friendly. They treat guests like family. Great stay! Well worth the drive. Highly recommended! Thank you Giuseppe and staff!

A beautiful view of the ocean, absolutely gorgeous!!

Very nice environment. Nice staff and services 👍

Great views and perfect location. Loved the atmosphere and was a great base to travel amalfi

The only thing I suggest are Tempur-pedic bed toppers because the beds are hard. Also, better pillows or at least one in the closet that is a Tempur-pedic pillow for persons who are seniors and have neck issues. Everything else was excellent.

The staff are amazing. - Very helpful and kind. The view from the property is breath taking.

Clean room air conditioning

This property and hotel is a joke. What the photo says is not true. They room was dirty and smoke someone before probably and stains all over the room. Let’s put it this way that we booked for 2. Nights and when we arrived after checking the room we left and never went back. We slept in our car until next day we went and find another hotel.

Amazing place, this hotel is wonderful and Royal we will highly strongly recommend

Very comfortable hotel sitting on top of the Amalfi Coast. The view is amazing. Wedding venue that had events every day that we were there, which was really fun. Small town, with a lively night life. Good breakfast with incredible views whiling dining on the balcony. Rooms are very traditionally decorated. Drive down to the coast takes a little over an hour. Would stay there again.

Amazing hotel with a beautiful view. Would definitely stay here again. Front desk staff very helpful

Fabulous views from the room. Lovely traditional hotel. Staff were very accommadating. Room was comfortable and very clean

I want to return with all my daughters. Great staff so friendly and helpful. The hotel is a forty minute bus ride to Amalfi but is so so worth it. We loved the bus system the experience was amazing and breathtaking. The breakfast area views are the best! The older gentleman that wears his ties different than in the US is so genuine. Hope to return soon!

This is a very good, quiet, relaxing hotel and the stuff makes you feel at home !!!! It’s home away from home ! Kudos to Michele who is the best in customer service !!!! We will come back for sure !!!!!!

Beautiful views. Peaceful.

The staff was warm and friendly and the views from the balcony were breathtaking. The town is small and we had to drive pretty far to get to the “happenings” but we loved coming back and relaxing.

I stayed here for a week, originally 4 days but I ended up extending my stay because it was so convenient to get to Amalfi by bus. It’s a little bit of the country side, but the town is small and filled with friends and family so it’s definitely safe. I’d come back as late as 11pm on the bus and felt comfortable walking to my hotel. The views are also AMAZING, I couldn’t get over it!

The service at the hotel was excellent. The staff was very helpful and kind. The view is unique and stunning, and the hotel's restaurant is fantastic! The food is delicious!

It was a well kept 95 year old hotel on top of a mountain giving a breathtaking view of the Amalfi coast. Nestled in the region of Agerola, it was a very peaceful area. There are lots of little local shops at walking distance from the hotel (pasticceria, enoteca, gelateria mini markets and local producers of cheeses and salumi. The staff was very friendly. The only downside would be the hardness of the mattress. Also, keep in mind that it's a 40 min drive up and down to go towards Napoli or Amalfi. We definitely recommend you stay for a great experience!

Excellent quality price only thing their breakfast could use some help

The hotel is beautifully perched on the hillside above the Amalfi Coast, but it is NOT on the coast. It is an hour or more with traffic to get to Positano and more or less the same to get to Amalfi. There is a bus, but it is still very different than described in Expedia. It is so distant in fact that we left a day early because of this. At the time, the manager said he would work with Expedia to get us a refund for the 1 night or even a partial refund for the 1 night, but has since refused. Don't stay here is you want to be on the Amalfi Coast or spend time on the coast.

Friendly and helpful staff especially Peppe! Thank you

The only good thing I will say is the views are amazing. The rooms are dated and mattresses are hard as a rock. We had to leave our first room because there were ants all over the sheets. The restaurant is mediocre at best, the staff except for 1-2 employees were rude and unprofessional. Lastly, we are traveling with a family of four (1 load max) and asked to do our own laundry. The staff insisted they would do so, except when laundry was finished they charged us 200 Euros, unacceptable.

Excellent View. Nice Rooms and Staff. Quiet Location. Bus Available to Amalfi from near by hotel ( 5 min walk) which is 45 min away.

Most Beautiful views of the coast. Cannot be beat. Highly recommend !!!!!

Very cute and sweet area. So much to do in the neighborhood and the hotel room although old school - it is very well kept! We loved it. The views were incredible as well.

Location is far from Almafi , long drive to get there but price is cheap, old fashion hotel

We loved this hotel. The views are absolutely stunning, I honestly can’t think of a better property view wise on the amalfi coast. It sits on top of a mountain basically and oversees so much, you can see Positano very clearly. Some may complain about the location; we loved it. It’s about 35 minutes by car from amalfi and an hour from positano, Sorrento and Naples. We loved being away from the tourist madness, the town is small, intimate and walkable. Leonardo’s across the street is an unbeatable restaurant. Food is so freaking amazing and prices cheap, we went every night we were there. The only opportunity for improvement is the mattress, it was thin and not super comfortable. But if you walk enough you’ll be too tired to notice too much :).

Very good hotel with nice view

Very nice view of the sea from balcony and breakfast area

Beautiful views. A little diifcult to get to a beach. 1 hour+ on a bus. Not a lot of sandy beaches to easily go to.

The views and location were incredible. Panaramic views were amazing from anywhere in the hotel and the balconies. But, the hotel was not exactly as advertised. Service was near non-existent, we did not receive a bottle of wine as promised, and the bar and restaurant that was advertised did not seem to be open. A/C in our room was not very effective. That all said, the views made up for it, and it was a nice point to take the bus to Amalfi.

A family-owned, family-run amazing Wes Anderson style hotel on a priceless cliff. Cannot believe how easy is it to take one shuttle to Amalfi, safely - no parking hassles, low stress, shuttles on the hour. Amalfi is mobbed. Also 3 miles from the Hike of the Gods entrance, above Positano. A quiet gem. Dated but in the most charming way. Wish I could retire here. Quiet, honored, off the map gem.

Clean, beautiful views, staff was helpful. A few drawbacks : was the distance to get to the ocean. The bus stop is very close so it’s not difficult but it was a high windy road daily. Breakfast was very basic, only had it once. Ac was only turned on & controlled by management (not the room) so you had to go to the main desk and asked for it to be turned on daily. Showers were also extremely small. I am 5’4 and weight about 145 and could barely fit. Other than that, good eating places nearby and people and staff were very friendly and very helpful.

Love the atmosphere, professional staff. Only negative feedback is ants were on balcony.

That was probably the best hotel that I booked. Though it looks near Amalfi and other beaches, the road is quite long going there. Due to it’s high altitude, I had an amazing sunrise at 6:15am ABOVE THE CLOUDS! How unexpected and epic was that!!!

Pictures do not do this place justice. The whole neighborhood is all family owned businesses with three generations working in them. The hotel is full of charm and the staff treats you like royalty.

nice view from terrace

Lovely property in quiet town of Agerola overlooking Amalfi coast. Room was clean and comfortable. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

Wonderful views and the staff were very pleasant.

The hotel is located on a very beautiful hilltop. You can see the sea view from the balcony of the room. The staff is very friendly and patiently explains how to use public transportation. The breakfast is very delicious and the staying is very comfortable.

One of the best stays of our entire Italian trip with my wife. We booked the room with the incredible sea view and large balcony—a breathtaking view honestly and it definitely looks even better in real life than in the pictures. The staff were very friendly and communication was fairly easy in English. Luckily, the hotel was hosting a wedding that day, so we had the honor of witnessing an Italian wedding! One of our highlights was the broadly selected breakfast we had—with a sea view at the restaurant as well. Omelet, fresh bread (!!), filled croissants, yogurts, mixed fresh fruit and one of the nicest cappuccinos I had in Italy—this hotel has it all. The car drive up and down the hill to Amalfi took about half an hour and was fun, but be cautious; the street is quite narrow and only for experienced drivers. Would definitely consider this hotel again; thank you!

Amazing view off our balcony. Had a rental car and plenty of free parking. Ate next door at Restaurant Leonardo’s often. It was amazing. Unfortunatelyz, didn’t even try the restaurant in the hotel. Was charged an extra €30 upon check out and have no idea of why. This seems kinda common with my hotel bookings through Expedia. Same thing happened with a Pariw hotel a couple of months ago.

If you are looking for a place to stay overlooking the Amalfi coast, I cannot imagine that there is a better place than this! We got a room with three beds and the terrace was probably larger than the room. It was huge. The room was fantastic. I cannot recommend this hotel more!!

This classic, beautiful, and well-kept hotel was a joy to stay at. The staff and grounds showed personal care and provided a wonderful experience. Near the Almafi cost area, but not busy. The views were amazing! Highly recommended.

Lovely location with views across the sea (if not raining or cloudy). Charming and friendly place & staff. Could do with a little modernisation (e.g. charging points, black out blinds, tea & coffee facilities in room). Away from the hubbub so nice and quiet & relaxing. Would stay again.

Charming and unique hotel with absolutely amazing views of the Amalfi Coast. Fantastic breakfast. Beds and pillows were very uncomfortable, but still a great stay!

Remote location with good breakfast service. Fantastic view outside hotel. Friendly staff members. Easy parking. Little bit challenge to access by car fro Positano or amalfi

The views can’t be beaten. Easily the most beautiful resort I’ve stayed at. I would come back in a heartbeat.

It feels like home :-)

Very nice week in that hotel. The view is astonishing and the staff was very nice with us. It s really a perfect spot if you want to avoid the usual crowd of Positano and Amalfi and get the best view of the Amalfi coast. We strongly recommend it. Some downs, no coffee machine in the bed rooms, beds could be updated, breakfast could be better, particularly the coffee and fruits. they do weddings every day and that limits the ability to eat at the hotel, it’s possible though but you’ll feel that they are making you a favour and will not have access to full menu. You could expect better from a 4 stars hotel. But fortunately there is a very good restaurant next to the hotel, very large and open all the time.

Great view - room was a bit too small for two people.

A quiet oasis above the Amalfi coast in a charming town. Wonderful views and great dining in this little spot.

We were so happy with our room. The balcony was huge with amazing views. The staff was very nice. The only complaint I had was the bed was not very soft and the pillows were a little flat. Other than that we would highly recommend this hotel. It was beautiful!

The view of the property was amazing.

The hotel it's in an astonishing position on a cliff above the sea,one of the best hotels on the entire Amalfi coast,the building is very beautiful remindig of the glory days of "La bell epoque" . great breakfast choice,very clean ,but the best about it is the staff,very friendly and helpful specially Pepe and Michele they are some of the nicest people i ever met. The surrounding area is very beautiful and quiet whitin walking distance from shops,restaurants, cafes and gelaterias. We rented a car and as advertised there was plenty of parking space right by the hotel I couldn't recommend this place enough. Hopefully we'll come back at some point.

Nice place would stay here again

What a pleasant place, it was a dream came through! The place is surrounded by Gods and Angels on the top of the mountain with the best views at Amalfi Coast. It is no doubt the best place to hold any special events to create the best memories

My husband and I stayed there late September,it was our first stop on a two week trip to Italy. The hotel is very traditional, older Italian and very well-maintained. It is located at the top of a mountain so the view from our room was unbelievable.The drive up the mountain may take some getting used to because of the narrow winding roads but once we did it a couple of times it was no problem.The staff was great and the town it is in has everything you need as far as shops and restaurants.We had a car and there was always plenty of parking.We would highly recommend this hotel.The complimentary breakfast was great, Italian meats,cheeses, pastries, as well as yogurt, cereal, and toast and of course amazing coffee!!

What a gem this hotel turned out to be! Can never forget beautiful views into the Mediterranean sea right from my room’s balcony: one can sit and enjoy the tranquility as the Sun goes down. The bed was comfortable, had a TV with English programs, a nice bathroom with a hair dryer. People at the reception, staff, are very sweet and warm hearted. Even when I had to leave early morning on both days (before 0630am), they made sure I got a coffee and a cornetto-when full breakfast starts only at 0800am. There is a long winding window-less corridor to walk to get to your room-that’s the only discomfort-but it vanishes once you open your room and its balcony. Agerola is an hour long journey from Amalfi by bus + add waiting time for the bus. But the pocket friendly tariff, spectacular views and genuine hospitality at this hotel is simply worth it. I am recommending it to anyone going to Amalfi. Just too good.

Great home base for the Amalfi Coast with awesome views. We wish the food at the actual hotel was better, but there's plenty of good options within walking distance.

It is a beautiful quiet area near the Amalfi coast.

Owner operated hotel at the end of the road (Via) with magnificent views of the Mediterranean at 1800 feet elevation for cool night temperatures Reasonable price for ocean view room with large balcony including a great breakfast with homemade breads, meats,cheese, fruit coffee, and juice. Room is smallish but adequate and has a mini fridge.

Amazing stay cannot say enough good things about the hotel, the people and the location. A must stay for sure 😊

Rooms not maintained, dirty linens. Not going back

our time immensely. The location was perfect and the view of the cost truly enhanced our experience. We look forward to stay here again in the future.

The views are the best part of this hotel panoramic views amazing. The rooms are a little out dated and the staff was not the friendliest they were okay. They do offer breakfast which was convenient. The small town is cute but not too much to do.

Older property, breakfast was poor and not a lot of staff. Not terrible but wouldn’t stay here again if I am in the area or if there weren’t other options.

Amazing staff! I am Definitely coming back

Location has stunning views of the sea and communities below. However to drive to Amalfi or Positano takes 45 min to 1.5 hrs because of the location. A bus can be taken. Loved the historic setting and decorations.

It was the very last top stop on the bus on top of the highest hill. It took over an hour. Which is very whiny. I got very sick and nauseous from the bus ride up and down. Although it is a great view from this location if you get a balcony view room. The shower was the size of a cruise shower. Extremely small. We did notice mold in the shower which my husband kept cleaning when entered shower. It would come off easy if maids too time to clean. The hotel is popular with wedding events. We noticed fireworks next to our hotel. Later realized there is a castle next door with wedding events as well. The good news is the hotel is in an adorable little town with great restaurants and shopping. Our favorite meal was accross from hotel at Leonardo’s. With an amazing view. Excellent 4 cheese pizza! Great food at great prices. Highly recommend. Bought bus tickets to go below hill to Amalfi in local shop. Tickets any where is only 2 euros Make sure to bring Dramamine if you get motion sickness for bus ride. The best part is you can’t get lost. Amalfi is the last bus and the hotel is the last stop up. Easy to find hotel. Other hotels are not convenient on hill. Nothing around them. This one is best for price. Breakfast has an awesom view . Beware they don’t tell you that you can order eggs any style for free. We didn’t know until we hear another couple ask for scrambled eggs. Otherwise there are boiled eggs available. The plus was a toaster for bread Most hotels didn’t have a toaster

This was our first time to the area! We were so glad we stayed at this beautiful hotel. The whole place is beautiful and the staff are absolutely amazing! They are very friendly and helpful! Thank you for a wonderful stay Grand hotel Sant’Orsola

This is the second time we stay in this hotel, and we loved it! Agerola is a beautiful town, quiet, friendly with a lot of dining options, stores and transportation to Napoli and Amalfi. The hotel offers rooms with a breath taking view! The room, bathroom, sheets and towels were clean, they offer laundry services too, breakfast is good, maybe can improve giving more options but is still delicious and fresh, staff is very friendly too. We can't wait to go back to Agerola and this hotel!

The view could not be beat! It was simply stunning from the balcony and breakfast room. also easy access to Amalfi and Positano (by car). Would definitely return!

Breathtaking views and great hotel, but it’s a little far from Positano or Amalfi!

Stunning views and very nice staff. The area was very cute, with 2-3 restaurants close by. Rooms with balconies enjoy exquisite views of the amalfi coast.

Great

Rooms are outdated and dirty (hair in the bathroom, dirty towel in the wardrobe, cigarette burns on bed sheets, dirty bath mat, etc). Breakfast was poor, with a limited selection and poor quality (food and coffee). The only good thing this hotel has is the breathtaking view from the rooms. How this hotel is a 4 stars is beyond me.

A very quiet place to stay. The restaurant across the street had great food. The young girl, Katie?, at the front desk was lovely. She made me a Spritz to have while I sat with the view. She also helped me with the ants that came into my room from the air conditioner. The breakfast was good. Lots to choose from. Lacking in the caffe experience. The man at the desk during check out charged me more for my additional costs. They are more about making money than the customer experience. I will not be staying here again.

Hotel was perched high above ocean with exquisite views. Property conditions were very good; beautiful setting and property. Pepe and staff were so kind and helpful. Even presented a thoughtful welcome gift as staff was aware of our journey to hotel late at night. The immediate town provided an opportunity to immerse in the local culture. Extremely impressed with young folks employed in markets, sores and restaurants. So clean cut and friendly; refreshing to experience. Also we visited in August and experienced the local celebrations in the immediate community. My wife really enjoyed this place and she is extremely picky.

The view is simply breathtaking!!!

The location is Amazing with ocean view, transportation is easy, the staff are helpful . I will go again.. stayed for two nights .

I highly recommend this proposal. I will spend more time on my next trip.

What a great stay here, the view was absolutely spectacular, I have stayed at many hotels and different countries but this was the best hotel view I have ever seen, it’s quite breathtaking. The breakfast was lovey, staff were very friendly and nice, and Agerola is a great town, not too over run with tourists like other parts of the Almafi but not hard to get around. Highly recommended!

I had a very disappointing stay at Grand Hotel Sant'Orsola. The room I stayed in was infested with bed bugs. I woke up with my back covered with bites in clusters. When I informed the hotel staff, they dismissed my concerns and insisted that the issue was due to mosquitoes. This response was not only unhelpful but also frustrating. After unpacking when I returned home, I found bed bugs in my luggage and informed the hotel. Despite the clear evidence and my request for a refund, the hotel refused to address the problem appropriately or provide any form of compensation. The lack of care and accountability was shocking. I strongly advise against staying here, as it’s clear they do not prioritize guest comfort or hygiene.

Magical experience, amazing view, great staff team. Excellent experience!!!❤️🍋🇮🇹

Very good and the best view
