The beauty of Positano

  1. A 5-minute walk separates the hotel from the sea

  2. A welcoming family-run hotel

  3. The hotel is situated right in the heart of Positano

Situated among the picturesque lanes of the historic center of Positano, Hotel La Bougainville is a small 4-star boutique hotel, recently renovated, where contemporary design, functionality, modern technology, and a warm family welcome are all at the service of guests.

The sea and beach of Positano are just steps from Hotel La Bougainville, as is the lively and charming historic center with its boutiques and restaurants. The hotel, with its understated and essential style, features 16 rooms in the vibrant colors of the Amalfi Coast, including the Comfort Rooms with a sea-view balcony. All rooms come equipped with everything the modern traveler needs: satellite TV, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, a minibar and a safe.

A charming breakfast room welcomes guests each morning, the perfect start before a day exploring Positano and the Amalfi Coast. In the evening, the same space transforms into an elegant lounge bar, perfect for a cocktail or a glass of wine in a warm, convivial atmosphere.

Legend has it that in the 12th century, a ship carrying a painting of the Madonna Assunta ran into trouble in the Tyrrhenian Sea. The sailors heard a mysterious voice say "Posa Posa" ("rest, rest"), urging them to stop right here. This is said to be the origin of the name Positano.

The hotel also offers a concierge service to help arrange experiences and bookings during your stay.

Perfection

My stay at Hotel La Bougainville was absolutely wonderful. The hotel is in the perfect location in the heart of Positano, with beautiful views, comfortable rooms, and easy access to everything the town has to offer. What made my stay truly unforgettable, though, was the incredible staff. During my trip, I unfortunately injured both of my ankles, making it very difficult to get around. Everyone at the hotel showed me so much kindness, patience, and genuine concern. They were always willing to help and made sure I was as comfortable as possible throughout my stay. Their compassion turned what could have been a very stressful experience into one where I still felt able to enjoy the beauty of Positano. The level of hospitality I received went far beyond what I expected. I can't thank the team enough for their exceptional service and kindness. If you're looking for a hotel with an amazing location and even more amazing people, Hotel La Bougainville is the place to stay. I can't wait to return—hopefully next time on two healthy ankles!

The hotel is perfectly located in the middle level of Positano for easy access to the bottom and the top. The staff was friendly, the rooms were clean! While there is no pool, they provided complimentary beach towels upon request. There is a delicious breakfast included every morning. You are able to get it delivered to your room upon request by filling out a menu the night prior. Before arriving, the hotel was able to help us set up travel logistics via email as well as help set up activities and reservations upon request. My friend and I traveled together and we found our experience lovely!

The best location in Positano. The best atmosphere ans welcoming people. The hotel is in the very city center and minutes from the beach. Walking to the hotel is super pleasant. Rooms are super clean and bright. They have been cleaning them every single day, making up the beds and changing the towels. We got complimentary water bottles every day. The hotel provides beach towels and complimentary flip flops. The receptionists would recommend the best reasonable restaurants and would make reservation for you. They would also assist in arranging any transportation anywhere you want. Breakfast is amazing and fresh every day. The staff would serve you the breakfast in the room if you want. There is also a happy hour every evening. When you get back to the hotel all hot from the heat, there is a lemon water waiting for you in the lobby to refresh you. I left my heart in Positano. Thank you Hotel Bougainville❤️

Strategic location, right at the entrance to the "lower" part of Positano, so you are not in the chaos of the pedestrian area, but just nearby. Splendid sea view, guys, staff, all super welcoming, rich breakfast, and bar open for evening aperitifs. Truly a fantastic atmosphere in a place of breathtaking beauty.

Hotel Bougainville is located in the heart of Positano, among the lanes of the historic center of this charming Amalfi Coast town. The hotel is just 5 minutes from the sea and the beach. Positano is an excellent base for exploring the coast, from Praiano to Furore, from Conca dei Marini to the more famous Amalfi and Ravello.
