The Poseidon is situated away from the bustle of the main shopping precinct and its elevated position provides lovely views over Positano. Service is unfailingly courteous and helpful. The Poseidon has a faded elegance reminiscent of a more glamorous era and therein lies its charm. The main shopping precinct is a ten minute walk away so you would need to... More

My husband and I were celebrating a special anniversary with a trip through southern Spain and parts of Italy we did not know well, including the Amalfi coast. We like to stay in A rated hotels but as we were travelling for 3 weeks pricing became important. The Hotel Poseidon fit the bill perfectly for our 3 day stay in... More

Even after multiple visits this wonderful hotel retains it's luster. Perhaps it's the views from the rooms...which are the stuff of dreams. Or perhaps it's just the right balance between comfort, facilites and service, but the Poseidon is a place we always start thinking about returning to while we are enroute home, and we can't wait to get back there....

The Poseidon was recommended by friends for our 4 night stay in Positano and yet in many ways it still exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived we felt welcome, every request was greeted with a positive response and every member of staff that we met was friendly,caring and efficient. In our bedroom everything was thoughtfully designed and provided... More

We stayed for 1 week here as part of our 2 week honeymoon in July 2012, and couldn't have been happier with our stay. From the very second we arrived, the staff were more than helpful to make sure we enjoyed ourselves. The boat trip (on the hotel's own speedboat!), and the drive along the Amalfi coast (in the hotels... More

I am not sure what has taken me so long to write this review - this hotel is wonderful and if I close my eyes tight enough, I can imagine myself back there ..... Every one of the staff was welcoming, from the receptionist to the bartenders. The family run nature of the hotel was evident with their "little" extras... More

Apart from the lovely views from this hotel, I would endorse this hotel for it;s location. It is within walking distance of Positano, without being too close to the centre. Being just outside and slightly higher up, the views are just spectacular. We had a room with partital seaview and it was enough to feel the magic. In the summer... More

This was such a great hotel and such great views. Enjoyed breakfast on the outside terrace every morning - such a beautiful view of the sea and the bougainvillea. Food was wonderful. Room was spacious and quiet. Convenient to all of our side trips. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful.
