Overview

Located in the town center of Amalfi, Hotel La Bussola is just steps away from the waterfront and offers a prime location for exploring the area's attractions. Within a short walk, you'll find the beautiful Cathedral Square, local shops, and the fascinating Paper Museum. Enjoy views of the coastline and harbor and easy access to the shops and restaurants that make Amalfi a popular destination.

The rooms at Hotel La Bussola are simple but feature vintage furnishings, bright colors, and small balconies with sea views. Previous kimkim travelers have appreciated the clean, comfortable, spacious accommodations, air conditioning, and free WiFi. In addition, the hotel offers a delightful breakfast buffet with a wide variety of choices to start your day.

What sets Hotel La Bussola apart is its amazing rooftop with a modern bar, offering an original cocktail list open to everyone. The scenic views from frontal and lateral sea view rooms are nice perks, as are the on-site restaurant and the easygoing nature of the staff.

This hotel is an actual dream. Waking up every day to the stunning view of Amalfi was truly breathtaking. The rooms were incredible spacious, with super functional storage, very comfortable beds, and surprisingly sound proof windows (important on a main road at night). Staff here was super friendly with a breakfast spread I will miss for weeks to come. Location could not have been more perfect. Read more
