I have 1 million good things to say about La Bizantina! Of our 15 day trip to Italy, our 6 night stay at La Bizantina was by far our best accommodation. The staff is so kind, considerate and genuine. The (huge) breakfast made for you each morning is the sweetest touch. The location is so ideal. I would 100% stay here again and recommend to anyone looking for a boutique hotel on the Amalfi Coast!

From the moment we stepped into La Bizantina it was a breath of fresh air. Our hosts Cecelia & Alessia were gracious, knowledgeable and accessible. La Biazantina was the perfect place to celebrate our 25th Anniversary. Clean, quiet, peaceful, romantic and accessible to everything Positano has to offer. Highly recommended.

This is a cute little hotel, our room had a wonderful view overlooking the sea. The staff was amazing, especially Cecilia! She was very attentive and gave us great advice about restaurants and the best way to tour the city. We rented a Vespa to get around and also took the bus. Walking is okay but keep in mind there are MANY stairs back up to the hotel. The beach was about 15 minutes down stairs, down the mountain.

Unbelievably personal, attention to all the small yet important details, you really got the sense that the staff care and have pride in their work (Cecilia was excellent!). The views from our bedroom were breathtakingly spectacular, we cannot recommend La Bizantina highly enough

This was by far, the nicest hotel we've ever stayed at. The service was phenomenal, the views gorgeous and the actual hotel itself was beautiful. The daily breakfast was high quality and delicious. Located in a nice spot in Positano, not too high up but not too low where you lose the views. Stay here, don't think twice about it
