"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."

"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."

"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."

"Unlike most hotels in the cliffside town of Positano that require a steep walk to reach the beach and town center, the 17th-century Palazzo Murat is located smack in the town center’s pedestrian zone."

"The best of Positano's sea-view mid-range hotels, the Marincanto is built into the slope (actually more of a cliff) that shelters the bay and main beach to the east."

"It’s all classic Amalfi Coast style – cool, arched rooms in dazzling white with splashes of blue and turquoise. Most of the bedrooms are sea-facing and a couple have private terraces."
