We are just back from our 5th visit to the hotel Margherita. Over many years we have come to love this hotel with its comfortable, spotless rooms, sea views and beautiful tiled floors. We always feel as if we were having new experiences as the hotel is continuously being improved. The hotel has helpful and friendly staff and delicious food with local ingredients in the gourmet restaurant. Breakfast choices include delicious fresh Amalfi orange juice pressed on the spot, with a great variety of dishes available. The location is in the quiet village of Praiano between the busy towns of Amalfi and Positano, well placed for day trips to Ravello, Sorrento, Pompei, Capri, Ercolano and other places of interest. Even though we have visited many times before, we still found new places to visit near Praiano this time on the advice of the owners, and we came back with delicious Amalfi lemons. We are sure we would like to go back next year.

3 star but with 5 star everything! This family run hotel is a slice of heaven along a busy yet pristine Italian Coastline. Nothing felt like too much trouble. As a family of 4 we had one of their apartments which was perfect! Everyone had their own. beds and own space. Views of the Mediterranean from every window, in fact from every part of the hotel. Only minutes from Marina di Praia and the famous world heritage Fiordo di Furore. Suella and her team are amazing. So many simple touches to make life easy, including ordering food and drink service at the pool by WhatsApp! The shuttle bus service made life so easy, being dropped close by, then a simple WhatsApp message to be picked up during the next run. The onsite restaurant was amazing, and breakfast each day was way more than what we had hoped. So much to choose from. We truly felt like we were wanted at this hotel. We are now trying to plan when we can come back again! Big shoutout to our beautiful housekeeping ladies who made our children feel so special each day, and to the lovely Carla at breakfast who was always happy to chat and offer guidance on what to do and where. See you again Hotel Margherita!

This was the perfect spot for us on the Amalfi Coast: attentive staff, good food, great views, and not too crowded. It isn't the all-out luxury that some people might look for, but it was more than comfortable, and all of the staff was wonderful. We felt very catered to and like we were getting an authentic Amalfi experience. Pool is small but nice and with a great view.
Just make sure you inquire about the free water procedure when you check in. They very kindly provide you with all of the still and sparkling water that you need, but we didn't understand the system at first and ended up paying for water that we thought was free. Not a huge deal at all, we are talking about a few euros total, but if you ask about it at the beginning, you can avoid any confusion.

From the moment we arrived to our departure we were treated to some of the best hospitality you can imagine, Suela and her team are extremely friendly and helpful with nothing being too much trouble.
The hotel is perfectly situated to take advantage of the fantastic views of the rustic coast and we chose Praiano because of its location, pretty central for exploring the Almalfi coast. There is a bus stop outside the hotel where you can catch a bus to nearby Positano or just a short walk the Sita bus stop, you can reach Sorrento or Salerno from here, ferries are also easily accessed from Almalfi or Positano from which you can explore further. The buses are an experience in peak times or when the ferries are cancelled, they can be very packed, but still great fun and very cheap.
The hotel has all the amenities you could need with the bonus of a small pool The rooms are excellent, spotlessly clean, very comfy beds/bedding, great bathroom with shower.
The breakfast was excellent with plenty of hot choices plus a great buffet, the breakfast team are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble.
The rooftop restaurant we visited 3 times and each time the food was perfection A great idea is the hotel's shuttle bus which will take and pick you up from anywhere in the village. There are E bikes available to rent directly from the hotel or if you feel the need to drive try one of the hotels small EV's, we rented one for a day and was great fun.
We spent a fantastic two weeks here and would most definitely highly recommend it Thank you for making our stay so perfect.

This was the best Hotel experience that we have enjoyed throughout Europe. Firstly, Praiano is probably the best location in the Amalfi Coast, relatively quiet at night but with plenty of excellent restaurants and convenient for trips to Positano, Amalfi, Capri, Ravello by your choice of bus, water taxi or road taxi.
If you decide on Praiano, then there is simply no better option than The Margherita. the rooms are nice and large enough, equipped with what you need and the views from your room or pool area are magnificent. The in-house breakfast is generous, and mama's restaurant is very good, but within a 10minute walk there are 10-12 excellent eating establishments.
What sets this Hotel apart is the dedication, friendliness, kindness and helpfulness of the staff, without exception. They will go out of their way to assist, make suggestions, organise transport, bookings etc and their communication is timely and pitch perfect. The shuttle will pretty well take you everywhere in Praiano and to the beach and they will pick you up when you call them.
Please stay at Margherita, we will every time we come to the Amalfi coast

I don’t even know where to begin, but from booking with Hotel Margherita, our experience with them had been nothing short of personable and easy. We had to reschedule due to Covid and that was a breeze! The staff was so responsive and flexible that it relieved any stresses we had about having to rebook our trip.
Once we arrived we were greeted by smiling, friendly faces even though it was 9pm and we were personally shown to our room and our bags delivered shortly after. Never once did we approach the counter with a question or something pre-discussed that they couldn’t answer or weren’t aware of. The staff was soooo accommodating, I was pregnant and craving an Aperol Spritz and they even made me a virgin one, even though they were slightly confused (lol)!!!
The ease of asking questions, ordering room service, reserving the shuttle, etc. all through just texting them via WhatsApp truly made our stay so easy and stress free!
The small mom and pop feel of the hotel was extraordinary, we loved feeling like they got to know us personally and weren’t overwhelmed by 100s-1000s of guests at a time. The location was also spectacular, close enough to visit Positano and Amalfi due to being in Praiano, smack dab between the two, yet quaint and quiet to not feel like you’re in a touristy location was prime!
You also must take advantage of the Capri boat tour the hotel offers to book for you! This was my favorite day of the entire trip and the ease of getting to the beach and on the boat was great, and for only €120!!
We stayed in the romantic room where we had the private balcony with the jacuzzi and the most incredible unobscured view of the coast and it was just the most incredible experience! If going for your honeymoon or a romantic couples getaway I highly recommend the romantic room!
If I didn’t make it clear enough, this hotel made everything EASY and they were extremely FRIENDLY while doing it. These are two of the most important things to me when traveling, it makes me want to return and give them all my money!
I can’t recommend Hotel Margherita enough for your stay on the Amalfi Coast, there is not one bad apple amongst the staff and they made us feel at home!

We chose this hotel because it was in between Positano and Amalfi. Positano and Amalfi are very busy and Praiano in the middle is much more laid back. This hotel is up part way on the hill and out of the hustle and bustle of the Busy Highway and Beach area. Every single person that we had contact with in this hotel give the utmost of service and care about your stay. The restaurant on the roof has the best views around and amazing food, they have a shuttle that will run you around and if you want your exercise you can walk all over from their location. I cannot describe how much everyone in this hotel cares about you and your stay. Don't hesitate stay here you will not be disappointed.

My husband and I traveled to Italy for a much delayed honeymoon after covid. We were looking for a relaxing vacation on the Amalfi Coast, with good food, culture, and views. This hotel is so lovely. We enjoyed the views of the ocean from our room, the delicious breakfast and coffee, and the charming town of Praiano. We were able to walk to the beach and restaurants in town. Each morning we woke up to the sounds of birds chirping - it was truly a dream staying in this location. We also loved how eco friendly the hotel was. There were no single-use items and the hotel provided us with reusable water bottles that we really appreciated.
By far the best part of staying at Hotel Margherita is the friendly and helpful staff. After breakfast each day, we'd stop by the front desk to ask for any tips about our plans and they always had great advice! Whether it be restaurants, bus tickets, directions, anything! Thank you so much for everything!
Don't Miss: Path of the Gods hike, Cafe Mirante, bus to Positano (bus stop right outside the hotel!), dinner at Kasai, dinner at Da Ciccio (short drive)

I was looking at many alternatives in the Amalfi coast area and for the Comments I decided to stay at Hotel Margherita and I was not wrong at all. It is a simple hotel with human quality and excellence in the Service from everyone who works there. Always ready to help, Bianca knew our tastes perfectly every morning at breakfast. I think this is what makes it unique. The view from the rooms with sea views is impressive. Having the pool area is an excellent option on hot days because you can also order something to drink and eat on the sun loungers. They provide towels, a bag, Hawaiian clothes and bottles of water for the Use of beach and pool. The Mama restaurant has a very good menu and excellent food. Very complete breakfast. In short, I could talk for hours and hours about everything Good thing the hotel has. I would always come back. Maybe and only For being demanding (which compared to everything Well, it's nothing) it's just that the glasses and plates ordered from the restaurant the day before were not taken out when cleaning the room. Room.
