Wonderful spot with incredible service
We stayed here on our mini-moon. It was a last minute change of itinerary after we got rained out of the Aeolian Islands. Davide & team were extremely helpful as we made last minute plans & gave us a lovely room in honor of the occasion. The hotel itself is gorgeous - balconies with stunning views, very clean, delicious breakfast to fuel us for a couple of long days hiking & walking. Excellently located too: bus stop outside the front door, a few minutes' walk from the start of the Path of Gods trail, and a fierce set of restaurants nearby (try Il Pino & Da Armando). If we ever make it back to Amalfi, would stay again!

The staff was the rudest I’ve ever personally dealt with. Refused to call a taxi when. checking out, even though when I checked in they said they could call a taxi whenever. My room appeared clean but the sheets had yellow stains on them and there were ants everywhere in the room. The stairs and hill to this place are absolutely awful and the staff is unwilling to help you. Do not expect a big breakfast of any type here. The smallest selection I’ve had while in Italy for 2 months. They will not help you and refused to change my sheets when I asked.

Dear customer I would like to point out that I told you that the taxi for short distances are not available about the room you can easly read other guests reviews other customers said that are very clean can read from the other reviews.About breakfast We always receive many compliments . You consumed a lot of takeaway food in your that is not allowed and we did not say even anything may be for this did ants come in? I am the owner helpedyou personally by getting off your huge suitcase along our descent and the taxi driver can confirm so I do not agree at all with your mendace review . I'm proud of my staff and of my hotel and please respect other people bye bye

Excellent location in Priano, can easily walk to Marina Apia to catch a boat to Capri or walk to many fine restaurants within 1-12 mins along the beautiful scenic alleys of the Amalfi Coast. The hotel is spotless, friendly and helpful staff, and offers a delightful filling breakfast including coffee bar to make your morning cappuccino or espresso- and all with a dreamy view of the coast! Definitely booking this hotel again next visit.

If you have stamina to climb.
Prepare to have good stamina to climb up a steep slope then flights of stairs to your room. It may have been a 3 stars in its hay days but it’s definitely a 1 star for me. The toilet seat was missing when they check me in and the room looked like an hourly love motel. We asks for a replacement room and they were v poor in attitude. Managed to get a change after being upset against our liking being on a holiday. Made us come to the reception (4 flights of stairs) when we didn’t park our car properly - due to lack of parking space. Perhaps the reception lack vocab of English, he said ‘I don’t care..’ even when I look pathetically tired and couldn’t get to the slope to park the car into their locked car park. Overall really unpleasant stay at vacation area.

Excellent Hotel!
Our stay was fantastic. All the staff was incredibly helpful, friendly, and kind. We felt more than welcomed, and the Hotel went out of its way to make sure that we would recover the phone that we left, by mistake, in the room after our check out. Special thanks to Davide for that! Truly recommended!

We loved Hotel La Perla - the location (spectacular), our room with a view of the ocean, the dining room manager (amazing and helpful). There was nothing not to like. We loved staying in Praiano as well, away from the busy tourist scene of Positano and Amalfi. It is a bit of a climb up to the hotel but it is absolutely worth it!

Hotel was hard to find. Google maps pin location is incorrect and takes you to the wrong location. When you do find it, it has good parking space. Hotel is up a ramp and steps with no elevators so lots of climbing. Front desk guy was not very welcoming. He didn't even offer to have someone take our bags up the stairs so we had to drag them ourselves. Room was decent. Had a great sea view. We had to leave at 5 am the next day and told the front desk guy. He did not warn us that there is no hot water at that time. I assume they turned off the hot water for the night. This is was ridiculous. We couldn't even shower before leaving because the water was too cold. Disappointing experience overall.

After struggling up the access road with our luggage, Raphael great us and carried our bags up the long flight of stairs to our rooms. Check in process was very smooth and welcoming and included a description of the amenities and breakfast available. While the room was typically small and appeared to be in need of some updating, it was incredibly claim, comfortable and quite! Breakfast included a variety of sliced meats, cheeses, fruits, eggs, pastries, yogurt, olives and freshly made delicious bruschetta. But the best was the sfogliatelli! When I inquired at check-in if breakfast included this delicious little clam shell pastry, Raphael exclaimed - Yes! Mamma's!! These were the best! Great experience great sleep and great breakfast! Thank you!

Great spot to go to Marina de Praia and the wonderful restaurants and beach there. It is a little difficult to get to the neighboring towns because the buses are full, but worth the effort. I would recommend taking water taxis wherever you want to go!! The hotel offered a nice breakfast every day and we were able to do laundry there, so that was nice! The terrace in our room was a fabulous place to drink our morning coffee and relax in the afternoon/evening before dinner.

Beware, the single rooms are so tiny and the shower even smaller at width of about 14 inches meaning you can’t really lift your arms or take a real or comfortable shower. Also, the hotel seems to have limited connections to taxis and drivers if you need that. There is no lift so stay away from the third floor rooms which is really like the fifth floor up.

Poor customer service
After traveling from half way around the world for 30+hours to a country where we were not able to use the internet or phone till we could purchase or use local wifi....we arrived jet lagged, tired and hot, 1 day late due to travel problems. We were greeted with a surly "You are lucky your room is still available". This was a prepaid 1 week reservation. We were then given directions to a room with a single, shuttered window with almost no natural light. Thankfully, the room was clean and the A/C worked, but the hostile check in interaction put a damper on what should have been a fabulous week on the Amalfi Coast. Friends Staying at a nearby hotel, averaging about 40% less a night were greeted warmly and helped at every turn by the staff there. They were there, as we were for a wedding at a different hotel. Every time they needed assistance they were helped. So attentive were the staff at hotel Torre Saracena, that when the van to take us to the wedding venue did not appear on time, They called for another taxi service without our asking. The original taxi showed up at the same time, the staff handled the potentially difficult confrontation and arranged another fare for the driver. Now, I will always stay at Hotel Torre Saracena whenever I return to the Amalfi coast. I will never stay at (not) la Perla again.

Cool little hotel, the views from the dining area and especially from our room were excellent. The staff was very helpful. They negotiated a price with a taxi driver to pick us up, take us to Pompei, wait two hours (with our luggage) then take us to the train station in Naples. It wasn't much more than what I paid for a taxi from Naples airport to Praiano.

Decent with pros and cons
The hotel is a good quiet location and we had a parking space although there it’s limited and hard to manoeuvre in. There’s a steep ramp and a flight of steps to climb up before you reach the reception area and no lift. The views from from the breakfast area and roof terrace are beautiful. Our room was a good size with a balcony and air con which worked really well. WiFi signal was decent and rarely lost connection. One downside was the poor construction of the party walls which meant you could hear the sound coming from adjacent rooms. One morning I actually woke up to an iPhone alarm that was going off in the next room and it was so clear that I thought it was mine on low volume. I could hear toilets being flushed and guests taking showers. Not sure if all the rooms are like that but ours certainly was and can only imagine as the hotel is dated others must experience similar problems. There was no kettle in the room nor iron available to use, we were only offered an ironing service which was chargeable per item of clothing. Breakfast was pretty basic too.

The Hotel is on a hill that requires some effort to climb to, then you have stairs at the hotel. For younger and fit persons this should not be to difficult, but for those with health conditions, mobility problems, I would not recommend this hotel. I love the location and staff, we had a great room with a wonderful view, best of all Parking for our car.

This place was Amazing! I would definitely stay there again we spent 4 magical nights there and chose Priano because it was affordable and it’s central location to Positano and Amalfi. The bus stops often and it’s only 3€ round trip to either. There is also a local but that will carry you around. We rented a scooter which the hotel arranged and went all the way to Maiori stopping everywhere along the way. The staff speaks English and were super helpful on any questions or concerns. Photos are of Positano, Ravello, Amalfi and the hotel balcony.

After reading some reviews I wasn't expecting anything out of the ordinary but it ended up been one of the nicest hotels in our trip around Italy. The location is great, right next to the sita bus stop so there's no need of walking or climbing up the stairs. A few restaurants close by, il pirata being the best option. Close to the beach and a minimarket aswell. Praiano town is just a 15 min walk where you will find more options to dine and shop. Staff was on point, helped with everything we needed. Rooms are fully equiped w even a spa bathtub. Rooms are huge and the view from the balcony is incredible. Large buffet breakfast over a terrace overlooking the amalfi coast. One of the highlights! We will be coming back
