Hotel Rufolo in Ravello, open April–August.
Perched 365 meters above the Tyrrhenian Sea on Ravello's clifftop, Hotel Rufolo commands sweeping Mediterranean vistas across the Amalfi Coast's dramatic shoreline.
The property's terraced gardens and panoramic terraces frame the coastline in every direction, while the town's medieval architecture provides an authentic Southern Italian backdrop.
Indoor and outdoor spaces accommodate ceremonies at sunrise or receptions under starlight, with the sea as your witness.
The town of Ravello is charming with breathtaking views all around, and Hotel Rufolo is no exception. The hotel grounds were stunning with sweeping views of the ocean from the mountaintop. The hotel was clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful! We spent a couple of afternoons on the terrace for drinks and food when the rest of the town was closed between 3:00-6:30pm. We stayed for 4 nights in a superior room with ocean view (room 428), the room and bathroom were larger than our other accommodations in Rome and Positano. The one thing that left a lot to be desired was the bed, as they pushed 2 twin beds together, and you could tell they were both very old spring mattresses so there were springs out of place and a gap down the middle. Overall, a lovely stay in Ravello but a decent bed to sleep in would have made it much better!
