Palazzo Confalone

Housed in the oldest villa in the town, Villa Confalone is a wonderful little hotel (with suites located nearby) with excellent service and great food. For me, Ravello felt like the the soul of the Amalfi coast, as it doesn't attract massive crowds of sun-seeking, day trippers (it isn't on the beach). But each evening we were there, sitting in the town square, watching the couples strolling, kids kicking around soccer balls and hearing the church bells ringing, I could feel la docle vita in the air.

This hotel is amazing with amazing views but it’s the staff and five star service that really made this experience. They absolutely went above and beyond, we were blown away. We came to the area for a wedding and having visited friends in other hotels, compared to other hotels, our rooms were spacious and the fixtures more modern. Great breakfast and really high end restaurant for dinner. Would highly recommend and we hope to come back!

First of all, Ravello is by far the best place to stay on the Amalfi Coast. It’s beautiful and not as busy as other towns in the area. This hotel was marvelous and the staff was very attentive. We ate at their restaurant the first night and the food was delicious and the service was impeccable. We loved it so much, that we ate there again the next night. A great breakfast in included with your room, as well.

Buyer beware. There were other reviews that suggested this hotel did a bait and switch. But since we were in the last couple days of our honeymoon, somehow I didn’t think it would happen to me. But it did. They checked you in and then walk you across to a different building. When I complained that I rented a sea view room I was told that all their rooms are considered sea view. Even though you can’t see the sea. The pillows were flat and god awful. The curtains were not black out so the street light shifted in our room all night. The street noise was loud. The decide in the room was non existent. It was really a joke for almost $700 per night. The only reason I gave it 3 stars is because the staff were very nice and accommodating. The food was good at the restaurant. But don’t make this a honeymoon destination.

Our friends restored an historic 12th century villa in the enchanting village of Ravello. Tucked between narrow cobblestones with sweeping coastal views, this hidden paradise offers the authentic Italian experience that has been diminished in so many places due to rampant tourism along the Amalfi Coast. Yesterday’s experience felt like the Amalfi Coast I fell in love with over a decade ago. Personal connection, impeccable service, unadulterated, seasonal dishes to die for. Peace and quiet☺️Better than Five Stars = Seven Stars + 💯💓

We found this amazing restaurant with outstanding food by accident. It certainly is a hidden gem if you are in Ravello. We had a two course meal with lots of added value. Don’t miss out it certainly won’t disappoint. Very much value for money.

this hotel is outstanding!! Can't believe how beautiful it was. The staff was so helpful and the breakfast was beyond our expectations. Highly recommend staying here. The only downfall is that there are lots of steps but the history of this estate is so special.

Lovely historic property with a terrific staff, great breakfast (included) and a great bar overlooking the coast. Ravello is beautiful and quieter than the rest of the Amalfi Coast. Our room (especially the floor) could have been cleaner and the AC does not work well. Very comfortable room. Cabs are VERY expensive and the drive is long to get anywhere outside of Ravello. Lots to see in Ravello though.

The Palazza Confalone was our first step in Ravello and we were only there for one day/night before moving to the Palazza Avino to be with a larger group for a wedding. We stayed in the ‘Ellen’ suite, which was on the first floor above the garden terrace and offered very nice views of the garden as well as the mountains and ocean below. The room was beautifully appointed, with a very nice bathroom and large walk-in shower, as well as a nice sitting area off the bed looking out the window, and then a terrace outside of the glass french doors. The staff was very friendly and nice, and the breakfast served in the morning was delicious and offered a beautiful morning view of that quintessential Ravello view. It was a very quiet and peaceful hotel and quite relaxing. We would absolutely stay again - it really depends on what you are looking for. It does not offer a swimming pool or beach club like the Palazza Avino, but our rate was also almost half, so you have to decide what you get value from. Overall beautiful hotel in an unbelievable setting and ancient palace.
