I love Ravello and I love the series of beautiful luxury Hotels lying one next to the other along the the Via San Giovanni del Toro. They all have charm and character despite the very different facilities & decoration level. Hotel Palumbo could only confirm my previous experiences and did not disappoint my clients & myself who spent a night... More

We stayed here on our wedding night in August 2011 after using the hotel garden for our wedding. The hotel dates back to the 13th century and has all the old Italian charm anyone could wish for,with original marble pillars,antiques filling every room, and the most amazing view over the coast which was the main selling point for choosing it...

Great view. Hotel hasn't been refurbished since the 13th century! The toilet in the room leaked, which made the tile on the floor like an ice rink. It was never fixed. The shower curtain was hanging off. The knob fell off the water temperature adjuster. The refrigerator was not cold. The decor of the room was horrible. The mattress was... More

We came back to stay for a big wedding anniversary having had a coffee here when we were just married. It lived up to expectations although not quite as luxurious as some newer five-star hotels.ravello itself is amazing and if you go outside of high summer it is much nicer than down the hill in the coast. Staff were fab... More

We just stayed at the Hotel Palumbo for 7 nights. It is a 13th century palazzo with unbelievable views of the Mediterranean and neighboring villages dotting the hillside. The public parts of the hotel are breathtaking, only second to the view. Real Italian antiques and paintings fill this hotel for a most elegant, yet comfortable setting. A wide marble staircase...

what a shabby excuse for a 5 star hotel. The exterior of this hotel is in serious need of renovation. Our balcony was a poor state:- walls cracked, peeling paint, etc. Also don't be expecting a pool, for this is non existent, and neighbouring hotel's pool was inoperational apparently. Definately will not be returning there!!

We had booked a trip in April to stay at Villa Fraulo, but they had an electrical problem and were closed for several days, so we were re-booked next door in Palumbo. Overall, a very pleasant and romantic stay. The hotel lacks some "polish" that keeps it from being classified as 5 stars (compared to our experience in travels all... More

We stayed there with our child for two nights in June 2009. We had a double room in the newly built side house - we also had a look at rooms in the main building, but they all were in a terrible estate (old). All in all our experience was terrible. The hotel seems to have its best times over... More

Well, I must first say that my last name is Palumbo so that is indeed why I was initially attracted to this property. I checked it out many years ago after looking into getting married in Ravello. I ended up choosing Lake Como but both areas offer stunning settings and are equally lovely. So we saved Ravello for our 5... More
