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.

The staff was friendly and so helpful. The room was excellent for our family. We had a suite and we were 5 adults. Convient to everything we wanted. Restaurant staff was very friendly and the breakfast was included and robust with many choices. Would definitely stay there again.

A very good experience in all aspects. Very friendly and helpful staff. The only comment I have (and was brought to the staff attention) is the temperature of the hot water, which is at most warm but not hot. Otherwise, Great ! Would highly recommend.

Horrendous dining experience in the restaurant (I didn’t stay at the hotel). Terrible service, kept waiting for 90 mins for food and poor communication from the serving staff and manager (who said he couldn’t speak English but clearly could). Horrendous prices for a poor experience.

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.
