Polite and helpful staff.
Clean room, good breakfast and stunning balcony view to eat breakfast on each day or sit and look/read a book. Good restaurants close.

Danielle
My husband and I had a great experience here! The breakfast on the balcony of our room was the perfect start to everyday there. Such a great touch! Staff were nice and helpful. We were able to also utilize beach towels needed for our beach day which was also helpful! Would definitely recommend! And lots of food options available nearby.
Janie Elizabeth
Just gorgeous.
Stephanie
Loved our view. The staff were incredible. Spacious rooms for the area. The staff were so helpful with organizing transport for us. It was so private. Ideal location where it’s not too busy but not too challenging to get down to the main beach.
Rômulo
The localization is perfect. The cleaning is really good. The staff is so educated and professional. The only point that could be improved is the breakfast, the other point I would say that they are 10/10
Ramtin
Perfect hotel!
John
Incompetent and horribly rude staff. We have never been so offended than the scene they caused by barging in our room.. If you value your privacy and basic human decency DO NOT STAY HERE.. Delays, rude staff and uneasy entry, only to be ACCOSTED while we were leaving by the staff.
Matthew
Great
Susan
This place is one of those gems that you hope to find on vacation but rarely ever do. The staff was fantastic, the bed was very comfortable, and the access to restauraunts was excellent. They also have a cozy spot where they serve drinks. The breakfast (included) was delicious and eating it on the patio admiring the view was amazing. Did I mention the staff? So friendly and helpful. It is at the top of the hill - great for views but the stairs are a little challenging.
Caglar
Great location and views. Breakfast is below average dont expect anything special. Cozy and small building which was more than enough for the experience.
Jack
Very romantic and picturesque setting. Beautiful balcony with a wonderful view. Lively area immediately outside of the Palazzo. Authentic property and rooms. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
Jennifer
We loved palazzo talamo!
Adair
Absolutely loved the exquisite location and the view! There are many good restaurants nearby. The Staff was helpful as we don’t speak Italian. We would return here for another stay!
Megan
The view!
Heidi
Very clean, very convenient to center
Breakfast that was included was not that great - limited selection, had to pay extra for eggs.
Staff was very courteous
Lovely to spend time on balcony overlooking the sea

If you visit Positano, PLEASE stay here! You’ll not regret it.
The staff is super friendly and helpful, a bit extra for us, since Swiss airlines lost our luggage’s for 3 days and the hotel front desk went the extra 100 miles to help us get it back. We super appreciated their help!
The location is superb! Across the Da Vicenzo restaurant, which is a must. And 5 minutes downhill to downtown Positano.
The view from the room during breakfast is breathtaking!
I don’t have one bad thing to say about this place.
Next time in Positano, we’ll definitely stay here again!

Outstanding service, location, and ambiance! We will definitely stay here again.
Vanessa
The lady working front desk did her job by providing information and organizing pickup. However, she ruined our experience by making it unwelcoming - hovering over anytime we left/came back, reminding us of the rules repeatedly when nothing was warranted. Beautiful hotel - horrible staff member. Considering we were barely there and kept to ourselves and paid for a great experience, it was shocking to feel that be ruined from the FACE of the hotel.
Kitchen staff and room service staff was amazing.

Canyon
Great location and view! Couple of good restaurants right out the door and easy acces to stairs or road to town/beach. Great staff.
Jay
Front desk was aloof. Key entry was tricky and cumbersome. Breakfast was delivered to room at 8am…. too late and crowded thus. Views lovely. Overall an 8.5
Sondra
Wonderful location with a spectacular view. Breakfast served on your patio every morning. I would definately come back again.
Andrew
Staff was friendly. Location was great. Lots of stairs but that is Positano. The view is worth the hills. Nice restaurants across the street and up and down the hill.
Sergio
Excellent location. Rooms are in small side but cozy. Balcony adds nice open feel and makes for wonderful morning breakfast and coffee. View is excellent. Service wonderful.
Jaylene
Amazing hotel! Amazing stay! Amazing staff were able to accommodate my request during my stay ! Definitely recommend and will be staying here again !
Michael
This place was fantastic!! Quiet, incredible views, but more importantly Alla and her team delivered exceptional service!!! Wonderful!! Won’t hesitate to stay here again!!

Learn to be hospitable to your guests
These guys wouldn’t know hospitality if it hit them in the face. Rude, condescending and made zero effort to be accommodating. Ive never tracked anywhere where staff couldn’t care less.
I asked for an iron. They refused to provide but said they will be able to arrange an iron service next morning (must pay to get things ironed). Morning came around, they back tracked and said staff was busy and could not help. They would need until the next day to get it done. Also the one floating iron they had in the hotel (which could provide for a fee) was also untraceable.
I have never experienced this level of lack of service. They literally act like they are doing you a favor by letting you stay there. Book your stay somewhere else.

We loved the view from our room from the patio — outdoor space was nice for breakfast. Room was tiny.
More privacy between balconies is needed we could see the neighbours on both sides through the lattice.

The balcony was amazingly calm. The hotel & room were extremely clean. Shower was small, but worked for one. The bed in room 4 was soo comfortable! But someone who likes a firm pillow, I could've appreciated a thicker pillow. Staff was amazing. I'd happily rebook this hotel.
LYUBOV
The location was amazing — just steps away from a beautiful beach! The overall condition of the place was neat and well-kept. I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely come back.
Lisa
DO NOT STAY HERE! This hotel should have one star. Our four nights at this hotel were the absolutely worst part of our vacation.
Every day, I had to go to the reception desk to request shampoo. We had no bar soap or body wash after the first day.
Bed linens threadbare and dirty. They changed the sheets one time.
I had no toilet paper in the bathroom and had to use a towel to wipe during the night.
The shower did not drain so you have to stand in dirty water.
Someone from the hotel banged on our door at 8 am for no reason. We were still in bed and my husband had to yell go away.
Don’t stay here. There are better hotels and I hope hotels.com ceases business with them.

Nicholas
The view is what you pay for otherwise, it’s not very private, rooms are on top of each other so you have no privacy for conversations. Staff is friendly.
Location is good but expect a lot of walking in Positano anywhere.
Rooms are somewhat small in size but may have larger rooms available

Our stay at Palazzo Talamo was exceptional.
We had amazing communication with the staff before and during our stay. They provided us with instructions on the easiest way to get to the hotel (which avoids hundreds of stairs!) greatly appreciated! On our first night we asked for some recommendations for restuarants and got an extensive message with many options. We were able to try several of them and they were all excellent.
The hotel is beautiful and charming, the room was adorable and better than pictured. We got a sea view and would highly recommend. We got breakfast in our room, eating on the deck with the most glorious view you have ever seen. It was a pinterest worthy backdrop. The breakfast options were vast and delicious. My mom and I are still talking about the homemade cake. I couldn't recommend this place enough and would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Easy to get to upon arrival, but steep walk to beach.
Veronica
Loved staying here. The room with the sea view was amazing! The location was idyllic, there were stair cases right by the entrance that led you straight down to the beach and right in front of some great restaurants.
Elaine
The view from the rooms are amazing, The staff is very friendly. The rooms were very nice.
Clinton
Unbelievable views! 317 steps to walk up so not for elders. But the views are INCREDIBLE! Very nice staff. Excellent breakfast delivered to room. Beds were not great and sheets/duvets pretty scratchy and uncomfortable.
Julio
The place was impeccable, friendly service and support, place was 100% clean
rossella
Great view from the room! Everyone very nice and accommodating!
stacey
This hotel was absolutely magical. The location is great; right next to several very good restaurants and up the street from the best gelato! The breakfast served to you every morning was just lovely and it was pure luxury being able to wake up to breakfast in bed or on the balcony overlooking the sea. We could even shower while looking at the sea because there was a window that could be opened in the bathroom. Everything was immactulatey clean and comfortable. The yellow colors and gold sconces and decor were everything I would imagine for a hotel in Italy. I just can't say enough about this hotel. It was probably one of my favorite hotels I have stayed at and I have stayed in many luxury hotels all over the world. The staff was so friendly and helpful. I will definately return.
Nicholas
Incredible experience and friendly staff. Room was ready prior to check in, view was amazing and they organized a private transfer to Naples. Not to mention breakfast delivered to the room each morning. When we come back, we will be staying here again for sure!
Mohammad
The quality of the mattress was very poor and not convenient

Palazzo Talamo is beautifully maintained, clean, in a great location with beautiful views and easy walking to beach and shopping. Carmela and Giovanna were so pleasant and very helpful.

Perfect Stay in Positano
We had an incredible stay at this hotel and we cannot say enough about the owner and the staff. They were truly wonderful, so kind, thoughtful and friendly. Just fantastic people. The room was nicely decorated, very clean, and the balcony was so nice, overlooking the sea each morning and night in Positano is truly a privilege. We enjoyed the light breakfast brought to our room each morning and the croissants were some of the best we had in Italy. We rented a Vespa nearby and rode to Ravello and took the ferry another day to Capri. We look forward to staying here again, but longer next time!

The bed is probably the worst bed I have ever slept in. It was very hard and the springs were almost exposed. The shower was also not great….it would cycle through freezing cold, scalding hot and then a normal temperature. Each cycle about 5 seconds.
The location was good with restaurants near by and easy access to the shops and restaurants down near the beach.

Nice staff and very frendly love the place!

Great spot in one of the most beautiful places! We had a sea view room and it was totally worth it to eat breakfast and take in the scenery.

Our stay was good, but the staff were OCD crazy about everything. Every time we came out of our room, they were on us for one thing or another. When are you checking out? Make sure you close the door behind you! We felt like we were getting harassed and our parents were yelling at us every time we left to do something. It was weird.
But the rooms were clean and it was a really beautiful view.

We had a wonderful time in Positano and we couldn’t have had it without the wonderful Palazzo Talamo. Beautiful view with a balcony, breakfast options, a great TV and AC in the room, very conveniently located just enough away from the commotion by the beach to sleep in peace. If you wanted to hang around though there was Caffe Positano right outside (be patient with the staff). Lastly, you Iust need to be prepared for the early morning staff, around 0700-0730 there is a bit of noise and conversation due to breakfast prep. Otherwise, the owner and her staff were very pleasant and helped make our stay a great success. We hope to be back soon!

A nice 3 star hotel, right in the heart of positano, my favourite restaurant was only up the hill on the left so it was an ideal location, but also ideal if you want to walk to the beach and further into town down the mountain.
Staff are absolutely lovely and you have breakfast served onto your balcony with a sea view , so you cant complain, its only a standard breakfast, but i wss happy with that. Overall i was happy with my stay, nice balcony view, nice staff and a nice location.
Would definitely stay again

Exceeded expectations
Stay was awesome! The view was unbelievable, the staff was so friendly and helpful, and the location was perfect. It was closer to the beach than properties higher up the hill (still a lot of steps, but doable). They brought breakfast every morning that we enjoyed on the balcony with the quintessential view of Positano. The room itself was pretty basic, but met our needs and the view from the bathroom was incredible. Would recommend this property for sure.

Excellent views and customer service

As far as I’m concerned the best spot to stay in Positano because right next-door is Café Positano with the most amazing view of the coast everything about this place was magical
Jane
This is my favorite place to stay in Positano and I have recommended it to friends who also love it. Every room has a balcony overlooking the sea. Stunning! The staff are very helpful. I hope to return again!

This hotel was amazing !
Overall our stay was very satisfactory. The hotel staff was very pleasant and helpful. The balcony view was BEAUTIFUL and the aesthetic of the hotel and the room had such beautiful tile work.
Verified traveler
The hotel is well located near the steps to the beach. Hotel staff was friendly. However, there is absolutely zero sound proofing in the rooms, it was very noisy all day and night. Breakfast was absolutely terrible, they dont even let you have an extra bread slice. No full mirror in the room, mattress was too hard.
Sue
Loved the location and our beautiful balcony!
Sholeh
Staff were so nice and helpful specially the lady name Kiara/Ciara. Room was a little different from pictures, expected more for a superior room. Biggest issue was the noise of dragging furniture from upper floor. Overall was a good experience and satisfied 😌

The staff were horrible. They were mean and super disrespectful
Andrea
Amazing. Will definitely be coming back here!

Amazing views and SO convenient
Hayley
We had a lovely vacation at Palazzo Talamo! Our room felt very spacious and had an amazing view of the water that was such a joy to wake up to every morning. The location cannot be beat either- we loved that it was super close to fun restaurants and right next to the stairs leading down to the water. The staff was excellent and helped us on many occasions to plan outings and schedule taxis and recommend restaurants. They also provide beach towels for use at the beach clubs which I found to be very helpful! We also loved the morning breakfast in the room and we were happy that we could pick what time it would be delivered. We would DEFINITELY stay here again!!!
Barbara
The rooms are lovely-spacious, clean, and bright.
The view from the balcony was spectacular.
Breakfast was brought to our balcony to be eaten each morning-delightful!
Purr only concern was that the old fashioned key to our room was difficult to use, and that seemed like a fire hazard.

Fantastic Hotel!
This hotel was amazing! The views from our balcony made us not even want to leave! The location was great, about a 10 minute walk down the beach and port. Going up took us a little longer with the stairs, but it was also easy to walk along the road. You can choose from multiple options for breakfast and it will be brought to your room to eat on the balcony. We didn't even want to leave this review because it's such a hidden gem for the area and price but would highly recommend it and we can't wait to come back to visit!
Nicholas
Absolutely fantastic hotel with gorgeous sea-views!
Staff were very friendly and always willing to help. The area around the hotel is great for shopping and dining and it has stair access down towards the beach and pier area.
Definitely recommend especially if you want a more Italian style and feel to your accommodation during your trip!

Great Positano Hotel
This is a fantastic place. It has a balcony that overlooks the beach, the people are very helpful and the location is great. Couldn’t ask for more!
Palmina
Our room had a beautiful view of the coastline. The staff is very helpful. Getting to the beach is a trek involving hundreds of steps but that’s no different than most hotels closer to the top of Positano.

Amazing view
Great rom with an amazing view of positano and the bay. Staff was friendly. Hotel is roughly 300 steps down/up from the beach. Located right across from a few good restaurants. The breakfast served in your room is amazing and a great way to start the day enjoying the view on your porch.

Amazing 3 nights in Positano
We used ferry from Naples (80 min) and this is the only way for me to enjoy Positano without a car. Looking at the map and I thought it'd be a easy walk but it was a quite vertical HIKE from the ferry terminal. Make sure to use porter service (10 euro/bag) that hotel can arrange. It's NOT a good idea to carry your own luggage!! The stay was worth every steps we climbed. Very nice staff, clean room (tight), we enjoyed breakfast in the terrace brought to the room every morning. Hotel is away from the main crowds yet several amazing restaurants and shops are within walking distance. The only issue was when neighbor's dog was barking frequently while enjoying coffee and the view.
Lola
No privacy with adjoining rooms particularly in the balcony you could see each other all the time couple of feet away , view was lovely, breakfast was unappetising, very small portion, chose to cancel and ate elsewhere, would have been nice to have a drink in their terrace cafe as on their website overlooking bay but this was not open, very disappointing never told us why. Very clean. Unfortunately would not stay here again.
jonathan
The location made it convenient to transport luggage from taxi to hotel without climbing stairs (which is not always the case in Positano). Great views from balcony. In room breakfast was a plus.
Patricia
An absolutely amazing hotel. The view from our terrace was gorgeous. Staff very friendly and helpful. Extremely clean and good facilities. Breakfast delivered to our terrace every morning was a great treat. Absolutely will go back.

Best view room
They have provided me a room, not with only ocean view but also Positano town view.
From our balcony, we can enjoy everything Positano provides. The view was too nice not to enjoy. We bought wine, prosciutto, Burrata, tomato and so on. Restaurants are in 10 seconds to place an order to pick up. Paying more ends up saving more
Also afternoon, we came back with a bottle of wine to lay down on chairs at balcony.

Easily accessed from the street, and the elevator takes you DOWN to the floors with the rooms. As a result, there are magnificent views and no noise from the street. There are great restaurants right outside the door.
The breakfasts were excellent, and staff very accommodating to us.

Our stay at Palazzo Talamo was amazing. We got a room with ocean view and it was so worth it, the views are breathtaking. The staff was so nice and helpful and the breakfasts in the room were lovely too. We made the mistake to climb the stairs to get to the hotel as the map showed it was the shorter path, don’t do it, just follow the road until you reach the hotel, much easier! The area is beautiful too, far enough from the super busy street but close enough to reach in less than 5 min. I would definitely recommend this place to people who don’t have a huge budget but still would like to have views from their hotel room.

Nice balcony, that’s about it.
The view is amazing but that’s about it. You pay for the location in Positano but the room itself is fine, hotel had an odd smell, and breakfast was bad. They also have cameras everywhere and I let a friend in to fix her contact that had fallen out, and they called our room telling us she couldn’t be there. Stay here if no other options.
Monica
My son tested positive for COVID the day when we supposed to check into Palazzo. I informed the administrators that I couldn’t check in not only because he was contaminated, but specially because he was burning in fever. They didn’t care and charged me the whole price of my booking even though I’ve never step my foot into the property. One administrator of the hotel called me at about 11PM, the day when I supposed to check in, and that whole day I was trying to find out how to treat my son in a foreign country, where I don’t speak the language and pretty much nobody speaks English. My son has special needs and also has epilepsy. He had three seizures in a intervale of 6 hours. When the female administrator called me I couldn’t understand her strong accent trying to speak English. I didn’t even recognize where she was calling from. At the end of that night when my son finally was able to fall sleep, I sent her an email explaining why I would not be able to check in: not only because my son had COVID, and we didn’t want to contaminated anybody, but because my son was not physically able to go to the hotel. I sent her the COVID test result. The employee was rude and said that I’d be charged full price and that they don’t have a policy to cancel booking because of COVID. She said that she sent many emails to me. I NEVER received them!!! I was charged more than €700 for a product that I never used!
BE CAREFUL WITH THIS PLACE!!!!

We have stayed at Talamo twice and love the location and view, convenience to walking around Positano, and friendly and helpful staff. The rooms have a small deck where we were able to sip a Spritz and watch boats come and go in the bay. Some of the rooms are quite small--recommend upgrade to the larger room. Rates are competitive for Positano.

Amalfi gem!
Beautiful room with a lovely church view right in the heart of Amalfi. The staff were so friendly and amazing. Plus, the continental breakfast was truly wonderful. Couldn't recommend it more.
Mike
Checked into our room fine but we’re appalled to see that one of our bath towels had blood stains on it (this happened once we had already used it). When we let the person at the front desk know about this she told us that this couldn’t be true and that the towels were changed. She did nothing to address the issue other than printing off a piece of paper that said that the towels were changed. Extremely uncomfortable situation after that with absolutely no ownership taken by the hotel staff about this incident.

The elevator was our of service for a time but not a major issue. The hotel is lovely, the staff goes the extra mile to accommodate, the location was perfection, and the balcony view was spectacular!

Good location but ordinary experience
The location was good but everything else was ordinary except the young guy at reception was the only one that was really helpful. Parking was a rip off … we weren’t notified that it was 60 euros per night, we thought it was for the whole time we were there. So parking cost us 300 euros for 5 nights. Older lady had major attitude. Very un-approachable. They charge 10 euros for beach towel hire per day which was a joke. You could have bought the same towel down the road for 12 euros. Overall, ordinary experience.
Andreas
Great views from terrace in rooms and location is close to shops and restaurants
Allison
Oh my goodness, this was a wonderful stay. Probably our favourite stay anywhere in our life. Do not hesitate to book this place. It is spotless, the staff are so caring and considerate, the food is delicious and the view is almost too good to believe. Plus, you are so close to everything and right on the stairs to the beach. I will be dreaming of this place for a long time.Jealous of everyone who still gets to go. Zero complaints!!
Robert
fantastic view and easy walk to beach and central Positano
Brittany
Amazing view
The view is incredible from this hotel. We were looking to stay in positano at a reasonable price and this hotel was perfect. Only thing to be aware of is you have to walk up quite a few flights of stairs unless you take the bus every time. But you can’t beat the view! It’s worth it!
