We stayed only one night, lovely view and friendly helpful service. Overall great value, tasty cappuccino and simple breakfast. Hopped in the hot tub at night. I’d recommend arriving before nightfall ( uphill narrow roads ) also there was many stairs so I’d recommend something more accessible if you’re not mobile but was not an issue for us at all.

It was a very nice room. Breakfast was good. It was way up in the mountains far from Amalfi. Nothing around. We had dinner at the restaurant next to the hotel and and fish was very good. Very quiet hotel but far from everything.

Beautiful and Serene
This hotel was well appointed with amenities, and absolutely gorgeous. Views were stunning! The restaurant affiliated with the hotel was fantastic. Every staff member was incredibly hospitable and so kind and helpful. Lovely people! There are many stairs to get to the hotel and back to the street, as it is literally built into the mountains. Worth the walk for sure, but can be challenging for those with physical difficulty walking or climbing stairs. Definitely beautiful and serene. Nice sized balconies too for enjoying that view. The breakfast provided was typical Italian breakfast food - coffee, pastries/breads, cheeses, sliced meat, yoghurt, fruit. They also provided cereals, milk, and juice. Taxis are more expensive since Pontone (the city there) is remote. Buses come by fairly regularly, and the stop is about 10-15 minute walk from the hotel. There are stairs down the mountain to Amalfi too - about a 40 minute walk down. Google maps had the correct walking directions. Not a lot of options for dining in Pontone, as it’s a small town, but the two we tried were both excellent - Ristorante San Giovanni (past the click tower and to the right, very close!) and the restaurant on the premises (I think it was called Ristorante Antico Borgia.) Pictures show view from balcony and stairs (only a fraction of them) to Amalfi.
View from balcony daytime
View from balcony late afternoon - mountains block the sun by early evening so the sun sets quickly!
Stairs to Amalfi
Part of the stair path down to Amalfi is more of a ramp

The Palazzo is beautifully nestled into the historic core of the Pontone village, away from the buzz in Amalfi. Planting beds with lavender and herbs add to a wonderful climate on the terrace with a peaceful view over the bay. We were warned by other reviews of the few steps from the parking to the hotel itself, otherwise there were no detriments to our stay.
