Caffetteria San Pasquale In Portici

20/11/2024: This stay was with a group for a week. Lovely high up and away from the Amalfi crowds. Rooms are basic, quiet and comfy, food amazing and so appreciated felt like I was part of their family at dinner. Thank you. Very reliable bus service and direct point of access to hiking trails.

08/11/2024: Stayed at the hotel as part of a solo traveller holiday group with Exodus. Location was inland and took around 40 minutes to reach Amalfi. Room: I was given an excellent room with a beautiful front facing balcony and the views were fantastic, the only recommendations I would make are that the bed’s are much to hard along with the pillows (like a brick) lack of provided tea, coffee & milk (although the shop is only next door). My other bug bear which isn’t directly the hotels fault, dogs barking pretty consistently, from 2am in the morning I was woken up with dogs barking, usually two to three times for long periods of time, this was the same in the evening / late afternoon, there was possibly only one or two days where I couldn’t hear it but was extremely annoying - surely this been mentioned by guests before ? Food: As we part of a group we had breakfast and evening meals included, breakfast was very simple and repetitive, cold ham, salami and Cheese, yoghurt, croissant’s, fruit, bread and boiled eggs that you cooked yourself, it was a little to basic in my opinion even as a continental breakfast. Evening meals were included as part of our tour and I personally found them quite restrictive and lacking in taste, however the pizza was excellent as was the lunch off the main menu, the rest of the food was pre-defined and we could only select a few options - it was quite dull and felt like it was prepared to a specific budget (€), I didn’t get the feeling I was in Italy having amazing food as I expected. In general the hotel was good, but small improvements in the hotels offering would be nice - stop the dogs barking too.
