Room decor varies between classic and modern, but all are attractive and come with espresso machines, free Wi-Fi, and minibars. The hotel offers a host of notable features like an outdoor pool with a stunning view and nearby massage hut, private beach, two restaurants and three bars, and a large terrace with sea vistas. It's a bit removed from the center of town, though the hotel does provide a free hourly shuttle service. For something directly in Positano, check out the similarly priced Covo Dei Saraceni.

Of the three high-end hotels in the vicinity, the Covo Dei Saraceni is the only one on the beach with a pool overlooking Positano Bay and the spectacular Amalfi coastline. Crowds on the beach and boats headed to and from the nearby ferry dock can be a bit noisy, but rooms overall are pretty quiet and many are equipped with private hot tubs and two balconies. Exploring the ancient cliffside town involves a walk uphill, but the return trip is always downhill. There are three restaurants (including a brasserie with delicious pizza), and a gelateria, and though the Covo may be the most expensive hotel in the area, many guests feel it’s worth it.

A member of the Relais & Chateaux luxury fellowship and one of the most expensive hotel in Positano, Il San Pietro is a stunning property with breathtaking Amalfi Coast vistas from multiple vantage points. The 57 spacious rooms are elegant and individually designed, featuring free minibars, free Wi-Fi, and sea-view terraces. In addition to outstanding service, the hotel offers a Michelin-starred restaurant, an elevator leading to a private beach and daytime eatery, a small spa and gym, infinity pool, and tennis court next to a lawn where activities such as yoga are held. The downside is that it is not within easy walking distance to town, but a free shuttle can take guests there 24/7. For a luxury hotel in the town center, consider Le Sirenuse, though it lacks a beach and isn't as quiet.

The three-pearl Hotel - Albergo California Positano is light on features, but it offers magnificent views over the pastel-dotted hillsides and Mediterranean Sea throughout. Though the 15 rooms are basic to the point that they might seem bare, all have gorgeous vistas from private balconies or terraces. They also come with small flat-screen TVs, minibars, hairdryers, and air-conditioning. There are no pool or gym facilities, and the only meal served is a free continental breakfast. Still, a five-minute walk from the center, it provides an ideal base to explore the town and Amalfi coast. Guests looking for a pool and spa might want to check out the nearby Hotel Marincanto.

Perched above the charming town of Positano on the Amalfi Coast, B&B Casa Nilde is known for the hospitality of the family that runs it: they go above and beyond to make stays special. With only six rooms, the three-pearl property is small, but each room is cheerful and contemporary, and has a balcony with a gorgeous view out to the ocean. Rooms have flat-screen TVs, kettles, and mini-fridges stocked with free water -- which might be needed at the end of the day, as the stairs going to and from the property number in the 600s. That being said, it's possible to walk the road back up or take a bus stopping outside the property. Travelers wanting something on the water and quiet should consider Hotel Puppetto, set on a quiet pebble beach about a 15-minute walk from Positano's center.

A romantic escape, I Giardini Dei Sensi is best for couples who are looking for a getaway, rather than to tick sights off their list. Located 17 minutes by bus from the center of town, the property offers access to the beach and hiking along the Amalfi coast, as well as stunning views of the Positano bay. An infinity pool and solarium are excellent (if less active) ways to enjoy the natural surroundings. However, the property isn't suitable for those who aren't comfortable with steps, and families with kids should look elsewhere. The Covo Dei Saraceni is a four-pearl property that's a bit more family-friendly and located on the Positano beach.

The 10-room Hotel Reginella is a boutique value property located in the center of Positano close to shops, restaurants, and the beach. Rooms are simple, clean, and spacious, and some have incredible views of the town and sea from furnished balconies. Some rooms are Old-World elegant, while others look a little more basic. As a budget hotel, there are no extras aside from a free continental breakfast and a bar, but the views and location -- as well as the rates -- are hard to beat for this expensive town. Hotel Villa Bellavista, another value property, has a small pool and a restaurant, but its location is less convenient.

Perched on Positano's highest point, the mid-range Conca d'Oro offers spectacular views of the Amalfi Coast below. Most of its 42 spacious guest rooms have balconies or terraces that overlook the sea. But there's a price to pay for these exceptional vistas: Guests must climb 100-odd steps to reach the hotel from the town, a climb some may find challenging. The hotel's restaurant provides a fantastic setting for romantic candlelit dinners on its terrace, and the outdoor hot tub offers panoramic views. A cold breakfast buffet and Wi-Fi are included in rates. The beach is about a 10-minute descent down the steps, while the town center is about a 15-minute walk from the property. Travelers looking for a hotel that doesn't require as much of a climb could consider the Hotel Villa Gabrisa located on one of Positano's main roads.
