Palazzo Della Marra

“Perfectly situated, great value”

Firstly, you're not going to find anything better situated than this in Ravello: this is 100m from the main square - probably just far enough to be away from cafe noise at night! (it was perfect for us) And, if you can look past the fact that things are a bit tatty (the building is apparently 900 y… more

Firstly, you're not going to find anything better situated than this in Ravello: this is 100m from the main square - probably just far enough to be away from cafe noise at night! (it was perfect for us) And, if you can look past the fact that things are a bit tatty (the building is apparently 900 years old), our mattress was good, the sun terrace fabulous and the breakfast remarkably satisfying. All in all, VERY good value.

“Gerardo is the best and location cannot be beat!!”

We stayed here 3 nights and to be totally honest I would stay a month if I could! The location of this beautiful little family owned hotel is incredible! Literally 1-minute walk from piazza duomo tons of food places within 5 minutes walk, and lots of shopping within the same 5-minutes walk. Gerardo… more

We stayed here 3 nights and to be totally honest I would stay a month if I could! The location of this beautiful little family owned hotel is incredible! Literally 1-minute walk from piazza duomo tons of food places within 5 minutes walk, and lots of shopping within the same 5-minutes walk. Gerardo was so extremely accommodating with everything that my review would go on for 10 pages and I won't do that to you... 😊 Breakfast was exactly watch you'd expect from a non 5-star hotel - there is an automatic coffee machine with at least six choices of coffee karma milk karma and chocolate milk. apart from that there are croissants with chocolate marmalade and plain as well as packaged ones with cream. there is bread and a toaster, slices of cheese, I think I saw sliced ham or salami of some type but we don't need that so not sure what it was, fresh fruits, variety flavours of yoghurt, fruit juices, slices of cake such as apple and chocolate... As you can see plenty of stuff. There are no eggs just fyi. There is a terrace at the very top that you can take your food up to to and there must say for us that rivalled any five star hotel. We just said up there and revelled in ravello and the beauty of the mountains all around. Gerardo also has two magnificent parrots that repeat what you say and talk to you and it's absolutely hysterical and super cute. As for the room itself, immaculately clean, the bed was super comfortable, very good strong air conditioning for such a small room which we basically shut most of the time, bathroom is also awesome with a very small shower stall but nice strong stream of water. We got the purple room and our bathroom tiles were absolutely beautiful and green. The medicine cabinet also has room for toiletries makeup etc, for you women... Basically I would stay here again and again when coming back to Ravello and honestly that's the only place to stay on the Amalfi Coast if you want quiet and not tons of tourists. Fyi my husband and I also spent 3 hours at villa rufolo which is barely a 3-minute walk from the hotel and we actually were willing to pay money to go again because it's so amazing. Do not miss!

“Excellent food! Best we’ve had in Italy this far”

We arrived in Ravello on the Amalfi Coast for a night and were looking for a place to eat. The food and atmosphere was amazing from start to finish. I had the Caprese Salad to start, the appearance was like none other I had seen before and the tomatoes so ripe and juicy. For dinner, I had the past… more

We arrived in Ravello on the Amalfi Coast for a night and were looking for a place to eat. The food and atmosphere was amazing from start to finish. I had the Caprese Salad to start, the appearance was like none other I had seen before and the tomatoes so ripe and juicy. For dinner, I had the pasta with calamari, yellow tomatoes and a zesty lemon sauce. It was so good! My husband had pasta with clams. We shared desert, it was a homemade pie with fruit. We’ve been in Italy for 8 days and this is by far the best we’ve had. We are contemplating going there again before we leave for our next stop!

“Very central and very good value for money”

I have been to the Amalfi Coast many times but reasonably priced accommodation can be hard to find. Just stayed for 2 nights, a clean and basic double en suite room with beautiful views of the surrounding hills. Excellent air conditioning and a great friendly host. Literally 1 min walk from the main square in Ravello. Breakfast was great and plentiful and served between 8am and 10pm. I took mine on the roof top terrace in the sun. If you want 4 or 5* luxury then this place isn't for you and there are plenty of hotels nearby where you can find that type of luxury (and pay a luxury price) but if you want somewhere in Ravello to base yourself with a comfy bed and a clean tiled bathroom then you can't go far wrong with Palazzo della Marra. I will definitely stay again.
