Relais Paradiso

We have stayed in many good hotels around the world, but have to say that the Paradiso Relais in Vietri Sul Mare close to Salerno on the Amalfi Coast was an exceptional experience. The hotel itself is modern, very well designed and all of the management and staff without exception were friendly – spoke excellent English – although we were speaking our best Italian! We stayed in one of the Junior suites which was spacious, cool and had a very comfortable bed, as well as the usual facilities you would expect in a hotel of this standard. Opening the double doors and stepping outside on to our private sun terrace, with its own sun beds and whirlpool, was one of the highlights of the stay as well as the beautiful views of the sea seen from every level of the hotel from the bar, restaurant, pool and sun terrace entrance. We dined in the hotel restaurant which offered a selection of sophisticated as well as more familiar dishes and Antonio the bar manager keep us happy with Prosecco and cocktails. The hotel provides a shuttle bus to Vietri at multiple times during the day and late into the evening which we took advantage of multiple occasions to travel into the town for shopping, lunch and dinner as well as going to the station where you can catch the train to Salerno, Pompeii, Naples and local towns such as Cava de’ Tirreni which is well worth a visit. This review would run to many pages if we recorded every wonderful thing about the hotel and our visit, so it must end here, but we would like to take the opportunity to thank Connie and Guiseppe on reception, Antonio who ran the bar and restaurant, Ernesto for driving the mini bus to town and back, as well as all of the staff at the Paradiso who afforded us the very best service, were always helpful and smiling and looked after us way beyond the call of duty and our expectations.

Fantastic experience here in the Amalfi, the staff were absolutely fantastic. So hospitable & welcoming. They truly made our trip memorable. We had the most Conny and Arriana were great. We would highly recommend the hotel.

The entire staff deserves 10 stars for the helpfulness and friendliness shown; we felt at home thanks to the atmosphere created by people who love their work. Thank you: Ester, Carmen, Michele, Pier Paolo, Antonio, Mauro, Conny, Rosario, Giuseppe, Arianna, Roman,

Stayed for five days in summer. After a repeated problem with a persistent smell in the room, we were upgraded to a better room and the hotel sent beautiful fresh fruit and wine as compensation. The pool is great. Distance to Vietri is fine for long ish walk or the shuttle bus. (Public transport exists but is very inconsistent). The service is the best thing about the hotel; friendly, welcoming, eager to help and personal. We were sad to leave after our stay ended!
