Good location, nice staff, clean room. I do not recommend the bar of the hotel. Disapointing attitude of the lady who is incharge of payment asking different price for caffee if it is served at the table.

We were traveling with a family of five in March 2023. The town was not open for the season quite yet but our wonderful hotel hosts found a great place for dinner for us and provided us with a fabulous breakfast. The rooms were very clean and comfortable and the view was amazing! Thank you for a wonderful day!

This location meet my expectations, great location and with parking included in the price. Nice European Breakfast with an incredible view on the sea! The room was clean and comfortable, good soundproofing. Despite the Hotel we found Palinuro City not so beautiful, like the coast/caves that are nothing special. Breathtaking Summer sunset.

Santa Caterina has friendly, welcoming and warm staff. Included luscious breakfast. Large bedrooms over-looking gorgeous Palinuro. And it is affordable! The beach is a stone's throw away. I would not hesitate to stay here again and again :)

After several weeks of visiting Italian cities with their glorious museums, churches, and archaeological sites, we needed the beach! The Cilento coast offered us exactly what we wanted. Since we were traveling without a car, we wanted to be close to the water in a small town. Palinuro was perfect. The hotel is nicely sited, a 10 minute walk from a delightful small cove with a refreshment stand and a nice beach on the crystal-clear, blue-green water. The people at the desk also kindly arranged for a cab which, for €10, took us to the lovely Marinella beach a few kilometers away. (The hotel also arranged for a taxi pick up at the train station upon our arrival from Naples.)
Our room was pleasant, with a balcony that could not have offered more spectacular views of the Tyrrhenian Sea, sunsets, and soft breezes. The hotel is located on the main street in this small town, which meant we were treated to the evening passeggiata. We especially enjoyed the small bar and gelato counter adjoining the hotel, with a terrace that had fabulous views of the bay.

Amazing location, beautiful view, really nice for family or a romantic week end. It has all in one, the bar has delicious Gelato and they make very good drinks. You must try the restaurant, they have dishes with fresh fish, so tasty!!!! Fresh mozzarella and homemade desserts. Very professional staff, in the bar and in the hotel. They deserve five stars!!! Great job!

My wife and I stayed in this hotel from April 27- 30. We had booked a boat tour of the Palinuro beaches and grottoes and mentioned to our guide that we wished that we had booked a hotel in Palinuro. Upon completion of our boat trip he walked us from the beach to this hotel and introduced us to the manager, Nebbina, who speaks perfect English. Nebbina let us see two of the rooms available. We chose the one with beach view.The king sized bed was comfortable, and high end linens were used. The bathroom was large by European standards and featured a full size bath tub. The room was kept spotless. Air conditioning was available along with complementary Wifi service . An additional plus was that the hotel has Sky TV which means that you can watch all the major American/English news networks if you are so inclined. Like most small beach towns, street parking can be scarce but the hotel has their own small lot across the street. We never had a problem with access. The breakfast buffet featured the standard Italian breakfast pastries, juice, cheese and ham and hot beverages. They also had fresh eggs which you boil yourself to your preferred doneness. This was our fifth trip to Italy. We have toured the Cinque Terre and beach towns of Puglia along the Adriatic. We liked the Cliento coast the best so far. The Santa Caterina provides quality accommodations at a reasonable cost. The service is excellent and we are seriously considering a repeat stay next year.

The hotel is nice, with nice views and very central located. The beach is also very close. rooms are nice and spotless. Buffet breakfast is ok. The Front Desk staff are nice and the hotel is also provided with a (small) complimentary parking. Can't fault it at all. Palinuro itself is quiet and small. Beaches are very nice, I was expecting a bit more from restaurants and bars. It's the right place to relax, anyway.

Great location and the Staff were very friendly and helpful. I asked about where I might to walking sticks - the receptionist wasn’t sure, so she went out the door and asked around where to we might buy or borrow some. Clean room, fantastic views, great breakfast. Food at the restaurant and the bar was excellent and the drinks & tapas were a daily treat We loved Palinuro - the town, the people, the biking, and hope to return. When we do, we will definitely stay at Santa Caterina.

Unfortunately the weather was somewhat inclement when we arrived - so we didn't see the place at its best. We were allocated a pleasant room with a dual aspect which was very nice - with a small balcony and it was very clean and spacious. Breakfasts were excellent - you could order omelettes and there was a good choice. The hotel staff were very helpful too but there was little ambience as it was out of season and not many people were resident. There was a really great bar at the side of the hotel - it was unclear whether it was separate to the hotel or part of it - but it was the only area where you could sit out of your rooms - other than the dining room. The staff there were really friendly.
