Via Cristoforo Colombo, 25 - 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.

Magic in Positano

A magical experience that, every year for a quarter of a century now, renews its fairy tale. The Hotel Bougainville was the first and only love nest for me and my wife Francesca, surrounded by the affection, courtesy, and professionalism of the entire staff. The location is strategic and very convenient: in front of the pedestrian area. I absolutely recommend it.

Cheerful and Friendly Hotel

A cheery and bright hotel in an easy-to-get-to location! The rooms were spacious and comfortable. They felt clean, and came with lotion, shampoo, conditioner, water and complimentary snacks. The staff went out of their way to ensure our comfort. They even provided a birthday treat, complete with birthday song for me. Positano is pricey, but the hotel was worth every penny. I would recommend Hotel La Bougainville.

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!

Positano is an excellent base for exploring the coast, from Praiano to Furore, from Conca dei Marini to the more famous Amalfi and Ravello.
