Nice hotel with no AC
We stayed here 4 nights and the air conditioner did not work a single one. We slept with the windows open but it was still very hot. The bathroom lights were too dim, we did not receive shampoo/shower gel packets on the first day we arrived but maybe it was overlooked since we never mentioned it and we actually got them on the following days. The location was great, the views from our room and the shared patio were amazing. The breakfast was pretty good and the staff was friendly imo. The hotel was small but pretty cute. The 77 stairs is normal in Amalfi , not too big of a deal honestly as this hotel is in a prime location with multiple restaurants/shops nearby. I would stay again in this place if they fix the AC.

Good spot close to the beach, but the AC was not working and room was full of ants, and wasn’t given shampoo & body wash packet on one day or toilet paper.

Don’t waste your money at this place, stay at a different hotel. Air conditioning was not working and staff couldn’t care less. They were extremely disinterested and unfriendly. Hotel was in a loud area which made sleeping at night difficult too - needed an open window with A/C broken. Breakfast wasn’t great either compared to other hotels I have stayed at in Italy.

Staff was helpful. Parking guy was on time. Luggage service was a bit delayed but it is understandable as people have to carry you bags 77 steps up to the B&B. Tipping very appreciated. At check out car was waiting at plaza on time. Luggage was a bit delayed as one guy have to carry two bags from B&B down to plaza. That was ok and we have to call to reception for status. Nice place.

This hotel was beautiful. The views were superb overlooking the sea. It had a fantastic shower with full water pressure I’m used to back home. Plenty of hot water. Nice TV and table and chair in front of the big window. The check-in was east once I arrived. Chiara was very nice, and even gave me a dinner recommendation which turned out delicious. She and the lady at check out were both so nice and assured me that holding my bags after checkout was no problem. This saved me so much hassle. The flight of steps isn’t bad at all, they are wide steps so you can easily take breaks as you need. In fact, the only trouble I had was finding the entrance to the steps. You must enter a narrow alleyway that leads to a small Piazza. From there you will find the bottom of the stairs. From that point the rest of the trip was so fantastic. Grazie Mille a Hotel Croce di Amalfi. You made my trip possible. :)

The location is great for the town and the waterfront. The hotel is up a long staircase but that’s how the locals live in Amalfi and adds to the charm. Breakfast was really good and the view from the outside terrace is incredible.

The breakfast was incredible and the view was amazing. Unfortunately the reception was not helpful and closed at 8 pm. You have to climb more than a few steps to get here but the view is worth it; may not be suitable for the elderly and definitely not wheelchair accessible. Thank you to the breakfast and cleaning lady she was the sweetest! The room was also clean and a good size but we paid for one with a view. Overall, the view is what makes this hotel exceptional.

Standard Stay
Overall a good stay. Big warning is that it is about 75 stairs to get to this hotel. You will want to hire the guy to bring up your bags. The room was standard. Nothing special. The air did not work very well so we kept the window open most days and nights. The eating area outside has a pretty good view of the water and the hotel is close to all of the attractions (restaurants, port, beach). The staff was very friendly and helpful. The free breakfast was pretty good.

Great view and a lot of stairs
At this hotel I suppose it matters what’s important to you. My husband and I recently stayed there for three nights. We were on a lengthy vacation and had numerous pieces of luggage and there was a 64 step climb to the hotel. For that reason I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re older, have mobility issues or just have a lot of bags. However, the view was absolutely beautiful. Check in was easy and the room was spacious and clean. There were limited toiletries available and the shower leaked all over the floor every time we used it. Leading to the balcony were two very tall beautiful doors. However, only one opened. This was disappointing because we were going to place two chairs in front of the doors to enjoy the view. The breakfast had indoor and outdoor seating again with beautiful views. There was plenty to eat every morning and they offered cappuccino, espresso and tea.

The many steps to the property require a porter to carry suitcases. Cost is €5 per case. This property will not suit elderly or infirm. Too many steps. There is no 24 hour front desk. Staff were friendly. Place is well maintained.

Hotel in good location close to beach
Hotel close to all facilities in Amalfi, but can be quite noisy due to main road below. Great view of sea from our window. Our room which was advertised as a junior suite with hot tub was a little disappointing - it amounted to a large room with traditional old style furniture and bathroom with shower over jacuzzi bath which had black mould in the jets. Needless to say we did not use it! Breakfast was better than previous reviewers had indicated: bread ham cheese eggs croissants, cakes, jams etc. Think its important to get in for breakfast early. On our last day we went in half way through the time slot and had to ask for bread etc to be topped up. The English spoken by the staff is limited which was a problem when asking for help/advise at reception. We had a late flight and there was no shower or changing facilities available after we had checked in and our suit cases were left in a public area until we collected them after our day Amalfi. We had a good stay in Amalfi but would probably not stay in this hotel again if returning.

Nice central location
As many others will probably say,the steps leading up to the hotel are quite challenging,however don’t let this put you off,if you have any disabilities or mobility issues this place is not for you.Now regarding the place itself,both my wife and I really enjoyed our 3 day stay at the hotel,our room had a balcony with sea views,the beds were very comfortable and the morning breakfast on the roof terrace a bonus with a good selection of conitinental goodies.On the day of our checkout the girl on the reception asked us if we would like our bags carried down the stairs for a nominal cost of 5 Euros. You could also make arrangement to have your luggage carried up to your room on arrival.

Very small hotel (12 rooms) 100 steps from port.
Lovely, tiny hotel with very few facilities. Not for someone who wants 5 star facilities, but perfect for those who want more individuality. It's a long climb up from the port and you will have to carry your own bags!

Ok, but...
The hotel was ok, at best. The location was fine because it was central, but while our room faced the ocean, over the main street, you could not see it because it was blocked by another building (It's not one of the photos we saw on websites. Just the luck of the draw). The terrace photo they show is one floor up. The issue was the noise. TRAFFIC. I had just stayed at another BnB 50 stairs below and it faced the Piazza dei Dogi and that was quiet. The other issue was the internet. First: none in the rooms. Second, only in common area which means the terrace, so forget having a private WhatsApp call without an audience. Third: it's not very strong wifi. This is 2017. When a hotel claims to offer free wifi, they should provide wifi in their rooms and it should work. The hand/shoulder 'What can you do' shrug is not compensation for misrepresentation of amenities offered. The rooms are ok. The most basic of amenities: soap and a pouch of shampoo/bodywash (which we all know isn't really shampoo). But it is clean. One final thing. There was no safe in our room and the room was accessed not through the hotel lobby, but directly from the outside. So we did not feel safe leaving any of our documents there.

Great location!!!
This was a great hotel and an amazing experience staying in Amalfi. The hotel is in the best location in the heart of the city. Hotel room was clean and we had a nice view of the harbor from our bedroom and bathroom window. Only downside was that we could not get wifi signal in the room, but that is because we had the one room that was furthest from the main lobby. So we just brought our computer up to the main balcony and used the wifi signal from there, which wasn't a bad view :) This hotel is also close to our favorite restaurant in Amalfi, which is the first restaurant on the right side at the bottom of the steps that you take up to the hotel.

Nice well-run small hotel. Good buffet breakfast - great views on the sea - multi-lingual staff. Not all rooms have a balcony. Should know - 77 step claim to the hotel. Can hire helpers at 5 euros a suitcase - worth it going upstairs. Great restaurants in town - beautiful cathedral. Buses can be packed.

Can't wait to go back.
Beautiful Amalfi. This hotel is right in the center. Room had exceptional view of Almafi harbor. Room was clean, and comfortable. Breakfast was simple but elegant, especially the lovely outdoor deck. One caution, Amalfi is built on the hills. When you arrive at the address it is straight up from the main street. Minimum of 75 steps walking to get to this lovely get-away.
