Guest reviews Hotel Villa Franca

by 532phree Hull, Massachusetts

Vacation with friends

We had the most wonderful time at Villa Franca in Positano. When we arrived Antonio greeted us and showed us the hotel. Antonio was helpful when we checked about perhaps changing our rooms to have better views. That did happen and it made our stay that much more beautiful. The hotel is very modern and “chic”. The buffet breakfast is outstanding and our two cups of capichinno made us feel as if we were really in Italy. The last night of our stay we ate at their hotel. Although it was very expensive, the meal, the atmosphere and service is something that will stay with us for a very long time. The hotel and Positano is just a wonderful place to vacation.

Incredible

This hotel is incredible. We got an upgraded room. The views are breathtaking and the staff is amazing. The restaurant li galli - and the experience it offers - is out of this world. No better place for our honeymoon.

Overrated

Very disappointed staying here. The rooms are tiny! I didn’t even have space to lay my luggage out. It’s definitely overpriced, you are just paying for the view( which is not the prettiest color your looking at the other side), the room I would say it’s worth maybe 1/3 of what we paid. I would much rather pay a little more and just stay at Le Sirenuse. Which has a much better view and it’s not that much more expensive. I was so mad I didn’t even want to take photos of the room.

From the top of the World!

HVF is a gorgeous property situated at the very top of the hill in Positano. Upon arrival we were greeted at the front desk by Tanya and the staff. We were checked in were given a tour of the hotel and its facilities. The staff was wonderful, accommodating and more than happy to assist with any request. The hotel has a spa, gorgeous rooftop pool, restaurant and a lounge bar. Breakfast is included in your stay. I am a connoisseur of breakfasts and I must say their breakfast was impressive! They offered an extensive variety of freshly baked pastries and breads, fresh fruit, meats, cheeses, yogurt, cereal and an omelet station which would make eggs to order. They had a beautiful honey station which offers a variety of different honey and beautiful honey comb! This boutique hotel is truly gorgeous. It was recently renovated and it is apparent every detail was thought through. The contemporary decor perfectly frames what are arguably the best views in Positano. The view from the lobby, our room (Room # 448) or the rooftop pool are all unique and just utterly breath-taking. HVF is at the top of the hill and it’s a bit of a walk down to the stores and restaurants. They provide a shuttle service, but it runs only during certain scheduled hours, so we ended up walking. Chez Black, Fly Bar Lounge and Music on the Rocks are must visits while in town. From the Fly Bar Lounge at night, you can look up on the hill and HVF literally looks like the shining north star perched on the hill.

Breath Taking Views

This is a beautiful property overlooking Positano. The roof top pool is glamorous. Max was especially helpful with our room selection and making our stay special. The terrace rooms are worth the price.
