Address
Via Cristoforo Colombo, 36 - Positano

An intimate 4 star hotel in the heart of Positano, Hotel L'Ancora is the stuff dream holidays are made of. On the one side, the shimmering blue sea and the islets of Li Galli; on the other, the historic center of Positano, which, with its colorful little houses stacked up against the rocks is, for many, the most enchanting of all those on Italy's legendary Amalfi Coast.

Choose the luxury made in Positano

Hotel L'Ancora's bedrooms and suites, each of which has its own balcony or terrace, enjoy magnificent views of the Bay of Positano. Spacious and filled with light, rooms are furnished in classic Mediterranean style and equipped with every comfort, from air conditioning to satellite television.

The perfect honeymoon hotel, L'Ancora has two "Special Suites" with large panoramic terrace and outdoor Jacuzzi from which the guests can enjoy a breathtaking view over Positano.

When not relaxing in the privacy of their rooms, guests might easily be found soaking up the sun on the nearby beaches of Spiaggia Grande or Fornillo, or heading off to explore the other beautiful towns on the Amalfi Coast.

Taste the paradise

Each morning, a mouth watering selection of traditional pastries and fresh fruit is served in Hotel L'Ancora's pretty breakfast room. During the day, snacks and refreshments are available on request.
For ice-creams, pizzas or a romantic dinner by the sea, the hotel recommends the Foyer Bar, Bistrot Pizzeria, and the restaurant of the Hotel Covo dei Saraceni, all of which grant discounts to customers staying at the Hotel L'Ancora.

Thank you very much for your hospitality. I am very grateful that you provided me with the room with the view I requested. Thanks to you, I had a wonderful stay. It was unfortunate that the restaurant was closed, but the room service was of high quality, and dinner at the sister hotel Covo dei Saraceni, which you recommended, was also delicious. By the way, I have stayed at Covo dei Saraceni several times before the pandemic.

This is the fourth time my wife and I have enjoyed staying at Hotel Ancora. The rooms are nicely decorated. The beds are comfortable. The location is perfect. Breakfast is great and the hotel staff is excellent! Can’t wait to return next year!

Review of Hotel L'Ancora

I recently stayed at Hotel L'Ancora for a very special occasion — I proposed to my partner — and I can honestly say it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The entire team went above and beyond to make our stay perfect, with a very special shoutout to Sasha and Valerie, who were incredibly helpful, extremely approachable, and attentive to every detail throughout our visit. However, the star of our experience was Lolanda. She truly facilitated everything seamlessly, making sure every detail was taken care of. She was responsive to emails and helpful in the planning prior to our arrival. After the proposal, Lolanda organized a beautiful cake and charming decorations in our room, creating the perfect celebratory atmosphere. She also arranged a stunning bouquet of flowers that added such a thoughtful and romantic touch. Everything about our stay was flawless — from the comfort of the rooms to the impeccable service. The rooms were very clean, the beds extremely comfortable, and we could not hear a thing, which made for wonderfully restful nights. The breakfast was fantastic, and each morning they brought out everything for us to enjoy on our balcony while soaking in the picturesque views of Positano — truly a magical way to start the day. The team at Hotel L'Ancora were phenomenal, making us feel completely comfortable and welcomed. They also helped organise all sorts of excursions and activities, ensuring we had an amazing and memorable time exploring the area. I can confidently give Hotel L'Ancora a 10/10 rating and would highly recommend reaching out to this wonderful team for any needs or special arrangements. If you’re looking for a place for a special event that delivers exceptional service, look no further than Hotel L'Ancora!

Map

Hotel L'Ancora is the perfect choice if you're looking for a 4 star hotel in the heart of Positano. Just a few meters lie between the hotel and historic center, the Spiaggia Grande beach, and the sea. Although one of the most famous, Positano is not the only attraction on the Amalfi Coast, and the nearby towns of Amalfi, Ravello, Praiano, Conca dei Marini, Furore and Atrani are all more than worthy of visit. Equally unmissable, Sorrento, Naples and the island of Capri are all just a short car or boat ride away.
