Quaint hotel, hospitality 100%. Our room had a great view and was spacious. Away from the positano crowds and close to the less crowded Fornillo beach. Just be ready for lots and lots of stairs.

We absolutely adored our stay! The staff were all lovely and incredibly helpful, the breakfast in the garden was beautiful and convenient, and the room had a spectacular view. The stairs are potentially a challenge for some, but that is really the case in all of Positano. For us, the stairs were beyond worth the fabulous stay!

We loved this staying at this hotel. The communication was amazing, the staff were friendly and the breakfast with the view was awesome. When we checked out, we were able to leave our bags there AND hired porters to deliver our bags at a later time right at the ferry station. Highly recommend staying here!

An amazing room and a really delightful staff. I had a balcony and view that was a live postcard experience. The room was large and spacious. My only note to future travelers is this location is hard to get to. Pack very light. Also, the WIFI was completely unreliable. All that said, I enjoyed my experience and would stay there again.

Hotel Demora Fornillo was pure magic. The views, helpful staff, complementary breakfast in the garden and location were perfect. The location is on the north side of Positano, nestled up the hill (about 300 steps UP). We found this location to out of the busy downtown area, however just a close walk by foot! It truly felt like a vacation and only wish we stayed longer.

Excellent view, and kind staff

We stayed on the top floor and the view and the room gave us a lifelong memory. The staff is very kind. The only way to get there is by walking up the stairs from the shore or down the stairs from the road, and it is quite a leg workout.

The hotel was built into the side of the mountain. The staff and owner were very kind and attentive. The only negative and this applies to any hotel in the area is the amount of stairs you need to climb to go anywhere.

The hotel is in a privileged location, excellent view to the Mediterranean sea from our balcony. The staff is very polite and super helpful. Our room was very spacious and comfortable. To get access to the hotel from street you need to take several stairs, but it is a short distance. I will stay there again.
