Basilica of San Severo Outside the Walls

The room was very clean, Breakfast was not great! There was very little choice, this was the 3rd hotel that I had stayed in during my trip and the worst Breakfast..you had to ask the member if staff for more coffee and it felt like you were imposing on them. The hotel itself is lovely but the area is very rough. Every cafe I went into advised me to put my bag in front of me and look out for pick pockets.

The check-in process was completely lacking. I stood outside for over an hour emailing calling and trying to get lit in the door. It says the front office is open, but you have to know how to get in the door. Apparently you have to use the keypad and click on one of the options that was available. But nowhere was that in the directions and the phone number to call the reception area was not taking phone calls and no one ever responded to my emails so I spent almost 2 hours standing outside until other people came along and let me in. Absolutely ridiculous!

We had a great stay. Our room was very clean and mostly quiet, though there was a party one night. The AC was really good. We found the bed hard but asked about this the following day and a topper was added which made the bed very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent (apart from Disney tracks on loop!). Staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly. The pool and bar area has an incredible view with sun loungers. Having visited some other towns we felt that Praiano was definitely the best place to stay on the Amalfi coast with a great selection of restaurants and easy to navigate.
