Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our room was quite basic, but it was clean and bright and everything - lights, lamps, AC, faucets, toilet, bidet, shower, wi-fi - worked! The balcony was spacious and had a fabulous view of the sea, Positano (the best view of Positano is from Hotel Smeraldo!), Li Galli, the Sorrento Peninsula, and the edge of Capri. Pasquale, Raffaele, Giorgio, and all the staff were helpful and friendly. The location is great for walking to restaurants, up to the convent and the Path of the Gods, or down to the beach.

We absolutely loved our stay at Hotsl Smeraldo. From the moment we walked in we felt taken care of. To bringing in our luggage, parking our car, and automatically providing a reservation at the best table in the restaurant, the staff were amazing. The views from the restaurant and rooms cannot be beat! Located on the main road made accessing the hotel so easy, and it was a short stroll to the shops and additional restaurants and cafes. We are already planning a return trip!

We had a relaxing stay at Hotel Smeraldo in Praiano. There were good food options at a short walking distance. We drove to the hotel and the staff parked the car for us and retrieved it as well during check out. The hotel was at a convenient place for our boat tour at the La Gavitella restaurant which was a short walk away from the hotel. The room it self was very adequate and couldn't ask for more.

We loved our stay at the Hotel Smeraldo. Everyone here was incredibly kind and helpful, providing recommendations for places to eat and activities and how to get around. The property itself is beautiful, and the rooms overlooking the water have gorgeous balconies--the best view we had in 10 days in the Amalfi coast. Would absolutely come back.

First time to the Almalfi coast. Chose this little gem of a hotel in the quiet town of Praiano. The family and staff (Georgio) took care of our every need and made us feel welcome. Hotel clean and up to date with the most beautiful views of the Almalfi coast and Capri. Perfect place to stay in between Positano and Amalfi. We will definitely be back to stay in the future!
