5.6/10

My experience at Hotel Royal Positano was mixed. The amazing views of Positano were definitely a highlight, truly stunning. However, the cleanliness of my room left much to be desired, with issues like ants and a generally worn ambiance that didn’t match the four-star expectations. The service varied; while some staff were helpful, several encounters felt a bit rude, especially when addressing concerns about my stay.

The room I stayed in was quite worn, with uncomfortable beds and issues like ants in the bathroom. I had to deal with unpleasant cleanliness standards and a malfunctioning air conditioning unit that made the first few nights unbearable.

My stay at Hotel Royal Positano was a mixed bag. The very nice views over Positano were absolutely stunning, and I appreciated the friendly staff who did their best to make me feel welcome. However, I ran into issues like the awkward room layout that came with a bad smell and uncomfortable sleeping arrangements. The dining options were decent but didn't impress, and the trek down the numerous steps to the town was tiring after a long day of exploring.

Rooms

The room was a confusing maze to get to, and while the sea view was amazing, I had to deal with a damp smell and an uncomfortable fold-out bed. The bathroom felt cramped and outdated, with a showerhead that was almost useless.

The staff were generally friendly, with some standout moments of helpfulness, particularly from Maria at the restaurant. However, inconsistencies in service left me feeling a bit let down at times.

Location

The hotel is perched high in the hills, which offers amazing views but also means a challenging walk down to the town through over 400 steps. The bus offered a good alternative, but it sometimes felt inconvenient.

Breakfast was acceptable with some nice fresh juices, but overall, the dining experience didn’t live up to my expectations. I found better food options in town after my first few meals here.

The pool area was a nice feature, especially given the small beaches in Positano, but I wish there had been more attention to detail regarding pest control, as mosquitoes were prevalent.
