Palazzo Marzoli Resort

This is a very cute boutique hotel located in a quieter end of Positano but right near the beach. Beautiful view from the balcony and very nice breakfast (huge yummy croissants/cornetti). Very clean and nice people there. Would definitely stay there again!

This was easily one of the best holidays we have ever had because the historic Palazzo Marzoli was such an amazing place to stay! The staff were perfectly splendid!!! We would love to return next year. We got the room we booked with a wonderful terrace which came complete with a gorgeous breath taking sea view. The room was larger and more spacious than it looked in the photos with a King sized bed with plenty of space around it and a good sized day bed and Pouf with a window in front of the bed also with a sea view & tall french windows leading onto the terrace. The bathroom was very spacious with traditional tiles. I don't understand the other less than complimentary reviews. Every one was absolutely lovely and we were made to feel ' so at home'. Special mention for Mr.Antonio Brancati and his lovely wife and lovely daughter at reception who were so very sweet and helpful: nothing was too much trouble. Everything was very clean and spotless,our room & bathroom were cleaned daily, with clean towels etc. We had a little safe to put our valuables in, mini fridge, kettle, tea, coffee etc; all the expected amenities which you don't always find in continental hotels. Also very comfortable bed with a great mattress! Also the Sita Sud bus needed to get around most of the coastal towns, stops a 1 minute walk around from the hotel. There is a mom & pop grocery store 1-2 minutes' walk from the hotel and bars and restaurants, not to mention the hotel's own restaurant. Breakfast on the hotel 's magnificent terrace was a very memorable experience. The whole town is a walkable picture postcard! Sure there are steps everywhere but we loved that we got a free workout on a holiday and what a picturesque one at that. No one wonder these people are so fit! We saw 80+ year olds carrying shopping bags walking up! We also felt very safe here because it is a close knit community and people are just lovely and helpful. Such a delightful small town villagey feel which is heartwarming. Antonio and his wife and daughter at Palazzo Marzoli will always inhabit that special place in our hearts forever reserved for Positano and the glorious Amalfi coast ! Dr.Aboobucker 301

The stay here was preceded by some rather unflattering reviews about this hotel but it would not take long to dispel such inequities. Firstly, having been to Rome, Florence, Venice and now the Amalfi coast, I can genuinely say it was the first time I felt comfortably safe in Italy here in Positano. The town folks are very nice and form a close knit community and most places are mom and pop shops. The room was spotless. It had a high ceiling, an air conditioner, a TV, a mini bar fridge and balcony with a glorious view of the Tyrrhenian sea. There is a grocer for the requisite local citrus, a small pasticeria, a pizza place, two bus stops and even a police post all within 2 minutes walk. The concierge young lady spoke good to English (It is presumptuous that we English speakers think that all foreign languages are English spoken slowly and loudly) I came prepared with Google Translate pre-loaded with Italian but did not need it. It is within easy travelling distance of the other towns and close to the sea side. We were made to feel very welcome and at home. Antonio in particular was always there to help with anything and was a constant cheerful presence. We would love to come back. I can give no higher praise than that!! Thank you very much for a memorable peaceful holiday.

Staff absolutely not serious. They're trying to slip money for anything and they're not clear at all. Before the stay we called to ask for the cost of parking and we were told a completely different price from the one then asked: we had been told about 50€, but we ended up paying 90€ per day, despite having already specified the type of car. At this point it would have been much cheaper to use a public car park, but we were evidently given misleading information. Also for the shuttle service same situation: for a trip of about 5 minutes we were told a price of 40 € round trip. On the day of check-out, however, we were asked for an additional 40€, without any clear explanation. When we asked for the receipt, we were given one without any details, with only the total amount, without specifying the service. This behavior is unprofessional and leaves many doubts about the correctness of the management. Overall experience very negative. I would not recommend it.
