"Set on a promontory in town, this proves a more colorful version of the Spanish NH chain's Grand Hotel Convento di Amalfi, on the south side of this sexy seaside resort." Full review

"Ibsen penned much of The Doll’s House in this converted 13th-century monastery. In summer, breakfast is served in the Byzantine cloister, and rooms and the pool area enjoy wonderful views."
