Gorgeous views because the property is perched on the seaside cliffs above the Mediterranean. I advise taking breakfast at the property. We walked the mile into Amalfi and enjoyed the views, but be aware there isn't much sidewalk, so we shared the road with vehicles. There is a bus stop at the hotel to get into town. (Buy extra tickets when leaving town for the trip back into town.)

Good value for rare cliffside property in Amalfi with gorgeous views. Room was clean, spacious and housekeeping was excellent Ocean view room is slightly more expensive but may be worth the view, privacy and quietness. Standard room is few steps down to dining aisle and walkway so there may be some noise if guests are loud Property is 25 - 30 minute walk uphill / 20 minute walk downhill from port / bus station, city center, Domo, dining and main tourist area. Coming from Sorrento asking bus driver to stop just before Amalfi terminal could save time and effort since less than three minute walk downhill to property. Use google map to insure pinpoint location drop off is close to place otherwise walk may be considerable Bottom line if you’re fit and healthy highly recommend. This is not the place to stay if you’re easily winded. For your safety recommend use phone light when walking in the dark to warn vehicles since some areas may require walking in street

The view from La Ninfa’s room is excellent! Kinda affordable price with such a view in the touristy area. However it would be much better if the hotel can share some transport info from the pier before arrival. The transport is kinda messy in Amalfi , other than that , everything is perfect ! Transport Tips : when u arrive Amalfi pier, get a ticket from a Tabacchi store right behind the playground and then the bus stop is opposite side left of a fountain. Show the staff the google map u wanna go and they will tell u which bus to take. I hope this help reduce the troubles for the next hotel customers. Restaurant tips : Strongly recommend to go to the nearby hotel called Hotel Santa Caterina, there is a restaurant called Al Mare. Just 8-10mins walk downhill from La Ninfa. Amalfi restaurants are pricey anyway, Al Mare restaurant is similar price with excellent service and view. (We just walk in and try ) . Wow~ Totally worth it! It was the best dinning experience in my 7-day Italy trip. It’s super nice ! Enjoy and Ciao !

This was our 1st time to Italy and we chose the Amalfi Coast to explore. While crowded on the buses and ferry’s, coming back to Hotel La Ninfa after a long days was perfect. It was quiet, clean and scenery simply breathtaking. The photos are exactly like the property. We found walking to downtown Amalfi an easy journey and we would take the SITA home after dinner and it stopped right in front of the hotel. The staff was pleasant and helpful. The morning breakfast was delicious. Very happy we chose Hotel La Ninfa.

This property has an amazing cliffside view of the ocean. It has small rooms and no sound proofing so its can get very noisy. The managers are nice and the staff are fantastic. Its on a windy road with constant traffic and walking can be precarious. There is a local bus but it just buzzes by if its full so its unreliable.

The owner was excellent in welcoming in. The property care taker was there every morning and took care of breakfast & cleaning the rooms. There is only 1 room with the Balcony highly recommend to book that if it's available it's a once in a Life time experience. The Balcony is on a cliff over looking the ocean it's simply amazing. Right next to town about 10mins walk downhill. On the way back take the Sita Bus for 1.20e and the bus stops steps from the hotel. Take a cab it's 15e. If you have luggage they charge 20e. Then take the Sita bus to Postiano for 2.50e one way and it takes around 30mins.

We stayed here for three nights at the end of May 2022. This hotel is small yet very quaint. Couldn’t ask for a better location; perched right atop the cliffside with beautiful views of the sea! What a great view to wake up to every day. Breakfast was an additional cost but an excellent option to have since the hotel is about a 15 minute walk into Amalfi. There is a bus stop located right across the street which we found very convenient. Most of the time we would just walk down the hill into Amalfi and then walk back up. We enjoyed the exercise and taking in the beautiful surroundings. Just an FYI to those with mobility issues; there are some stairs to navigate upon entry into the hotel as well as a few into your bedroom or down a stairwell to other bedrooms depending on where you stay. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it. As I mentioned, it is about a 15 minute walk into town so bear that in mind I’m considering booking this location.

A good hotel to stay on a budget within walking distance to town. The view of the Mediterranean from living/breakfast room is spectacular. The owner Maurizio is super nice and speaks fluent English. No parking though (I would not rent a car) beach access via steep stairs. Beach is not free chairs - from 20-25 euro. Overall a very pleasant stay.

Amazing views
We were so glad and happy we stayed at the Ninfa. First of all, Maurizzio was very welcoming. He recommended really good places to eat and gave us some very helpful tips. Also, the rest of the staff was great. Hotel is just perfectly located at walking distance to Amalfi and Conca dei Marini. Right on the cliff, La Ninfa definitely exceeded our expectations. We stayed at room 5 and the minute we walked in, wow! just thrilling and excitement. It’s has one of the most stunning ocean and Costiera Amalfinata views! Also, has this amazing balcony you will feel you own the world. Bathroom views were just breathtaking. I have never enjoyed taking a shower just like the way I did there! You’ll be actually surprised! You can walk down the cliff to this amazing, cool beach. I Really recommend a day beach at Lido Degli Artisti. Great staff, great food, paradise. Overall, we stayed 4 days and enjoyed every second of our visit to Costiera Amalfita

In Amalfi we could not find transportation that would take us to the hotel as the roads are too busy and the taxis will not take you to this hotel during peak hours. At the hotel we had to carry our luggage down a long flight of stairs. We received an unwelcoming greeting which immediately created an unsettling vibe. Our room had a rickety door that barely closed. You had to leave your room key at the front desk when you left the property and get a different key for the front door which made our room feel unsecure. No windows to the room just a frosted glass door that opens to the main patio. The room was so dated and dark. They advertise complimentary toiletries, bathrobes, etc. which is not accurate. The shower head kept falling off. The towels smelled like sour milk which was absolutely disgusting. We asked for a drink and were told the bar was just for looks! We walked the mile into town for dinner as we didn’t really have any other transportation option. We chose to leave the hotel for the entire day as there is nothing to do anywhere near the hotel unless you walk down 500 steps to a beach. That night we met some other friendly guests and we actually were able to enjoy the patio. We were enjoying wine and cheese and crackers and the manager came up and yelled at us for bringing in outside food. He said we could not have the food and we would be charged a 450EU fine for breaking the rules. There is no restaurant so we didn’t understand the issue with cheese and crackers?

A NIGHTMARE
This hotel is a nightmare. Please refrain yourselves from booking there. You will loose your money! You have no space in the rooms and the rooms are dirty, the beds are not comfortables and dirty. The staff is not friendly at all. You have no real parking spots as it says free parking / Self parking. You have to find a parking spot and sometimes walk 25 minutes to come back.

Very very disappointing hotel. I had high hopes and expectations but it was very disappointing and not worth the money. The room and bathroom/shower were tiny and could just about walk around them. The included “breakfast buffet” is not a breakfast buffet and was absolutely terrible; it was a couple of warm yogurts, croissants and mouldy bruised fruit.

Not a hotel, but wonderful staff
Let me start by stressing that I loved Maurizio, the owner, and his staff, they were some of the nicest people I met, Quick to react and responsible. That being said though, La Ninfa is not a hotel, it is at best a B&B or a pretentious Hostel. The rooms are simply too small to qualify as hotel rooms, even by European standards, although the views from the rooms on the seaside are unbeatable. This does not justify the price though, as views are easy to come by on the coast....more than 130-160 Euro a night for what could at best be described as a closet size room is not ok, in the first room I was in I could not fint into the shower stall, I literally had to back in and could not wash my hair as it was impossible to lift my arms. Steep and narrow steps make it difficult for anyone to move around the hotel unless Young and agile....If it was a hostel, and charged about half the Daily rate it would be sort of fair, but considering it a three start hotel and at that price, that is simply not ok and a no go, if on the Amalfi coast or not.....I Can rent a house on Capri for six people at 2/3 the rate of that!

Overall excellent, but two gripes The service by Maria was excellent and her personal skills and languages meant she was helpful every time we met her. 1 we understood car parking was in a garage opposite, however the car was taken to the harbour a mile or so away and kept in a restaurant car park. At the end of our two week stay, we were told we couldn’t pay the car park charge by card, cash please. However with no available cash we paid by card. 2 the service by the other girls meant we virtually ran out of toilet paper and soap. Mauricio was most welcoming and helpful Apart from the two minor gripes we thoroughly highly recommend La Ninfa Hotel. EJ and CJ

The room #4 hangs on the side of the cliff looking over the sea and vision up and down the coastline. It is very impressive. The room is very small with the bed pushed up against the far wall.

This hotel is advertised as having free wi-fi. That is completely true IF you are staying in the main building. We were in a building which was not connected to the main building therefore the owner told us he'd 'get the password' for the wi-fi and never gave us anything. We then figured out that there was not actually wi-fi in our building he was going to try giving us the password for the hotel next to us. The views from the room were amazing - it overlooked the ocean. It was probably the best part of the stay. Breakfast was great too - LOTS to choose from. As I previously said we had a room that was not connected to the whole building - it was pretty noisy at night. It's right off of their main road so you could hear the cars going up and down the road all night. The location is okay - it's about a 25 minute walk to the port, but there are no sidewalks in certain places. The room itself was a tight squeeze as most are in Italy. We weren't overly impressed with our visit to La Ninfa.
