The sea washing the Amalfi Coast

  1. Step onto your room's balcony and the sea of the Amalfi Coast is right there

  2. Simplicity paired with 4-star comfort and a Jacuzzi tub

  3. Panoramic terrace and Neapolitan cuisine at the hotel restaurant

The pleasure of waking up and discovering you're just steps from the waters of the Amalfi Coast. It's not a dream or a secret wish, but a short description of your stay at Hotel La Bussola, a welcoming 4-star hotel in Amalfi ideal for a holiday dedicated to the sea of the Divine Coast.

Where wheat was once ground, the spaces of Hotel La Bussola now stand, born from the restoration of an old mill. The rooms, almost all with a sea view and private balcony, are simply furnished and decorated with Vietri majolica from local tradition, but what truly stands out is the feeling of always being at home.

Every comfort of a modern hotel on the Amalfi Coast is here, and some rooms feature a Jacuzzi tub, essential when you want to leave everyday stress behind.

In the dining rooms and on the restaurant's panoramic terrace, you'll find the right atmosphere for a peaceful dinner dedicated to Neapolitan gastronomy, along with an American Bar for an aperitif or an after-dinner drink. Banquets, special events and romantic weddings can also be arranged: it will be impossible to forget cutting the wedding cake under the moonlight of the Coast! Thanks to a meeting room with capacity for 100 people and independent access, Hotel La Bussola is the ideal venue for small conferences.

From Hotel La Bussola, it's easy to rent a boat to dive into the waters off Li Galli or reach the beaches of Amalfi, Atrani and Positano. Traveling by car is a real pleasure, since the hotel offers reserved parking with an EV charging station, but if you'd rather not stray far from your room's comforts, there's the roof garden, the sundeck on the cliff facing the hotel, and the solarium. Here you can enjoy the sun of the Amalfi Coast and the sea breeze that cools the last hours of the day.

Exceeded expectations

Chose this hotel as it was one of the rare hotels in Amalfi with on site parking for guests. However, driving in Amalfi is not for the faint hearted (or if you didn't opt for zero excess for vehicle damage). The hotel carpark requires multi point turns to enter and exit. The hotel decor was dated - it seemed to be last decorated in the 80s - but it was kept clean, spick and span. The hotel staff were very helpful and polite. I booked a premium room with a view of the sea and a balcony. It was nice to leave the french doors open to enjoy the sea breeze. The room was good sized though the TV was very small. It had multiple satellite channels though. Wifi speed was good - it worked with corporate VPN as well as video streaming. Ample power points at the desk and bedside, which also had USB-A sockets. The bed was very comfortable and the shower water pressure good. The shampoo and body wash had a lovely scent and the towels were fluffy. Coffee and tea was provided as were 2 500ml packets of water daily. Sometimes flushing or shower noises can be heard from adjacent rooms but it did not bother me too much. The buffet breakfast had mostly breads, pastries, cold cuts and salad. There was bacon, scrambled eggs and hardboiled eggs. You are served the food you choose; no self service required. Omelettes (4 varieties) and coffee could be ordered. The menu remained the same for 4 days. The hotel has no gym and the nearest gym to that sells a day pass is about 20 minutes walk away at Atrani. The hotel has a little floating pontoon directly opposite the building across the road with sunbeds so you can tan without going to the public beach. Amalfi Piaza Duomo with its shops and restaurants is about 5 minutes walk away.

My wife and I spent 5 days here on your honeymoon and loved it! It was a great location with very friendly staff. The complimentary breakfast every morning was great. We had a Prestige room with a balcony overlooking the water. It was a short walk to the town center and ferry stop, which made it very easy to get around. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it. They also have a beautiful rooftop bar with live music.

Excellent location, a stone's throw from everything. Beautiful and very clean room. Top-notch breakfast, excellent restaurant; we chose half board (dinner) and the courses are truly exceptional, desserts included. Very friendly and helpful staff with a special mention for Andrea from the restaurant, particularly nice, always attentive to the guests' needs and very professional. Highly recommended.
