Star Service "Exceptional accommodations, a secret garden, a magnificent seasonal restaurant and drop dead gorgeous views of the towering granite Maritime Alps rising behind the hotel, not the sea." Full review
Concierge "Step off the busy, boutique-lined lane that heads beachward in Positano into the entrance courtyard of Palazzo Murat, and suddenly you're in another world."
Frommer's "This 18th-century baroque palace near the marina is said to have been built for Gioacchino Murat... today it's one of our our favorite places to stay in the town center." Full review
