Loved the cleanliness. the view from the property and above all, the friendliness of the staff! they were super helpful and wonderful throughout our stay.

Very disappointed and angry. The room given to us was not in line with the photos posted on line. The room, bathroom and balcony were much smaller than expected. When we complained, they firstly denied. Then they said there was no immediate solution as the hotel was full and promised to come back within 1 hour. No news until the next day, when we came back from our tour in the afternoon they said it was too late to change our room… We only could get a decent room in our last night. Not honest and not acceptable. You should never promise false things. They mix together photos of very different rooms. Last but not least, the communication with the person in charge was surrealistic. She even said « you know this is just a room, only to sleep. Why make such problem? ». Well, it says it all for a hotel selling rooms at more than 200€ a night !

The Hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. The hotel is very clean and comfortable. Location is convenient.

All good.

Friendly staff, clean room

EVERYTHING! The room was clean and comfortable with an amazing view. excellent facilities and friendly, helpful staff. Free parking was a bonus. we had a beautiful meal in the restaurant and delicious breakfast the following morning. would highly recommend staying here.

We wanted to stay a little away from the overcrowded main villages so this was the perfect location for us. It is a short (and beautiful stroll) to the village.

the staff, the rooms and the location.

nothing

Fantastic view Super friendly staff Central location Excellent value for money

The owners were very very friendly. The room had a lovely balcony and chaise lounges to take in the sun or have a glass of wine in the evening. The location, for us, was perfect. Right on the main street - convenient to both Amalfi and Positano, without the high high prices. The breakfast was great and you could eat in their restaurant or go out. Free parking is a big plus and the bus stops at their parking lot. Perfect!

There was nothing to dislike.

Nice hosts, great restaurant. Try the seafood pasta!

it is close to the road, But thats How it is here

The hotel is located near Positano (16 min by car, 30 min by bus), in a very quiet area that allows you to rest well at night. The bus stop to go to Sorrento-Positano-Amalfi is a 5-minute walk away. The rooms are lovely, the view exceptional. Its owners, and all the staff, are very friendly and helpful people who make you feel at home. You can spend a lovely evening, dining on the small terrace of the hotel, accompanied by the wonderful view of the Mediterranean. Breakfast is exceptional. I was pleasantly surprised; when they finding out about my gluten allergy, they brought me special products, including some delicious gluten-free bread and croissant. The chef prepares exquisite meals. I have eaten here the tastiest and smoothest parmigiana in my life.

Location, room , food, staff

N/A

We spent a lovely night in this hotel. The room was tied, clean and quiet. All employees were very nice. Breakfast was good. And the view on the sea is awesome !

Location, friendly well run hotel with a huge balcony. Reseraunt food was really good.

Would have liked tea/coffee making facilities in room. Corridor bit noisy with key system to enter rooms. Could have done with a chest of drawers especially for a triple room

on the highway, parking space, spacious room recently redone with bright tiles, big terrace, good breakfast (more than usual Italian sweet breakfast)

The view was amazing and the balcony had lounge chairs, perfect to put the feet up after all the hiking around Praiano. Surprisingly, given the dated look of building, It had USB ports for the electronic devices. Breakfast was good and personnel were nice, remembering our choice of beverages both for breakfast and after dinner.

The building is a bit dated; there's no lift (we had to climb two flights of stairs). Shower gel was provided in single use plastic sachets which made it difficult to use. Water pressure in the hand shower was low forcing us to use the overhead shower. Though the breakfast was good in the hotel's restaurant, the a la carte menu wasn't very great.

The room was clean and bright, looks like recently renovated, the staff was super friendly, accommodating and welcoming. The breakfast was OK, they could offer omelets or scrambled eggs as an option

The moth balls smell in the room was quite heavy, needed to air the room every time we came back.

We got room 25 on the first floor and got a lovely view. The room did not contain that much apart from a bed, a small TV on the wall and a chair. The bed was comfortable enough, but I would have preferred a thin duvet and not sheets/blanket. The bathroom was also with tiles and included a shower corner that worked great, a bide and toilet. And outside the room – a balcony with a lovely view of the ocean! There was parking right outside the hotel and trust me, that is great as parking is really an issue along the Amalfi coast. Breakfast was in the restaurant on the ground floor, and we could choose to have e.g. croissant, muesli, fruit, yogurt etc. Location of the hotel is not perfect – you can walk to Marina di Praia to take a dip in this charming little bay with a small beach and you can walk to the restaurants around the church of San Gennaro but it can be a bit nerve wrecking due to traffic.

Not the very best location as it takes a bit of time to walk to e.g. the church of San Gennaro, would prefer a proper duvet and a better pillow, small TV (not that we actually watched it), would be great with better reading light

The view was magnificent; we enjoyed the room interior and breakfast place. Staff was welcoming. One great bonus for unexperienced Amalfi coast roads travelers here was the was easy and accessible parking space behind the hotel!

Owners and location

Thank you Pascuale for your hospitality. We had amazing view from a balcony. The restaurant in hotel is good - we liked grilled fish and home made spaghettis. It was delicious. We were offered a local wine from Ravello - the small village near Amalfi where you can visit vinery. Thank you again!

Everything was absolutely wonderful. The location, the view, the room and the terrace, the parking space and for sure not on the last place, the staff. We will be back there!

The location was amazing! The view from your room is spectacular! This family owned hotel went out of their way to please you! Food was great, service was great! Highly recommend this hotel!

staff were super, view was excellent

room just a little tight

We loved loved loved Open Gate. Stefania, Pasquale & Eva were wonder hosts and their recommendations helped us plan our days efficiently. Our deluxe room was wonderfully Italian, spacious, comfortable, and the view from the large balcony picture perfect. Breakfast in the hotel's restaurant was generous, fresh and tasty and so were the dinners - we were so happy the first night at a table overlooking the sea that we decided have all our dinners there (the restaurant was full with walk-ins). Off road parking is a huge asset in the area, we were thankful for it. The quiet location mid coastal road between Positano and Amalfi worked best for us. We had a wonderful time.
