University Suor Orsola Benincasa Tours and Activities

The location is so very beautiful and so very dangerous!! Especially for those with a fear of heights. Arriving at this destination isn't for the faint of heart. It seems to be at the very tip of Almalfi; impossibly high up on a steep cliff. The gorgeous rooftop provides the most stunning views of the Almalfi Coast. In fact, I'd argue very few places offer such an exquisite view of the sea and cliffs of Almalfi. This hotel has breakfast daily and their fresh-baked croissants and cappuccino were honestly probably the best I've had in my travels so far. The older gentleman who runs the hotel is very efficient and kind, (even if initially intimidating). Just don't arrive to breakfast after 9:45 or make too much noise because it's frowned upon. Also, you can't bring food into the rooms, which is something to consider before staying, since it's a hike to town. (A dangerous hike down a dangerous road).

Our stay was wonderful from start to finish! The rooms, staff, drinks and food were excellent but what took our breath away was the views! To wake up and see that view every morning as we walked down to breakfast was amazing! Desk staff are very helpful with suggestions and the free breakfast has a great variety. Pool was refreshing and getting a lounger was not difficult. Rooms and common areas all clean and well taken care of. Really a fantastic place to stay, we would gladly stay there again!

Great staff, great hotel!
