Castello Marchionale Tours

This is a really nice property with a few highs and lows. The rooms are well done, there are great dining options, the view is spectacular, and it is conveniently located to the pedestrian walkway and shops and restaurants; the lows are the pool, which is small and can only accommodate about 8 people; the hotel is also located right on one of the main streets through the town so sitting on your terrace is not a quiet experience, and the prices are kind of outrageous, cocktails in Eden Bar are 40e and the lobster special at the rooftop restaurant ran over 350e which is really crazy. Staff is very friendly, especially Toni who is the breakfast manager. He is very nice and accommodative but can be a bit much before you get a cup of coffee in you:) Overall it was a very good experience but might consider other options if I am looking for rest and relaxation.

Hotel Bellvue Suite was a very pleasant, value for money, place to stay for my wife and I for our week in Amalfi, all the staff were helpful and happy to chat. Breakfast was a treat with a variety of foods, fruits, drinks available. A 20 minute walk gets you to Amalfi centre or a bus stop is very close-by, hotel reception had a selection of bus tickets for sale which was most convenient too! Our room was clean (and cleaned/serviced every morning) and featured a near 'black-out' blind so early sunrise didn't wake us too early, the shower and bathroom generally were excellent, a safe in the room was handy for keeping documents etc in to save carrying about. Our only disappointments were the lack of a café - which was advertised on Expedia and it not being a beach-front property - again as advertised on Expedia. The bar did sell crisps, peanuts and very light snacks but was not a café. As for 'beach-front' cliff-front would be a more more accurate description. A major reason we booked this hotel was for walk out the door onto the beach expectations. Both these downside points are I imagine down to Expedia failing to visit the property rather than the fault of the property itself which as I stated previously is excellent! Overall we had a wonderful stay and I would particularly like to thank Antonio for his advice regarding tours, transport and general information, his advice was invaluable. I can highly recommend Hotel Bellvue Suite as a great place to stay if you visit Amalfi.
