Hotel Caruso, Ravello
A former 11th century palace set on cliffs beside the Amalfi Coast, Hotel Caruso seems to drift on a ‘balcony’ above the Mediterranean Sea.
As with so many Orient-Express hotels it is a triumph of the restorer’s skill. Its ancient walls and fresco-covered ceilings have been carefully preserved to make it a work of art in itself.
Stroll through the terraced gardens or lounge beside the stunning infinity pool. Take a boat trip to Positano or discover Roman Pompeii. Wherever you turn, both inside the hotel and out, a world of heritage, culture and beauty awaits.
Hotel Caruso offers a breathtaking range of possibilities for its guests with 48 very spacious Rooms and Suites. Each has its own unique style, with most having sea views and terraces and many also with private gardens. The furniture reflects Neapolitan style and tradition, and has been exclusively created for Hotel Caruso; some rooms also feature antique 18th and 19th-century pieces.
Hotel Caruso has a range of dining facilities to suit every occasion. Traditional Neapolitan and regional Italian dishes are, of course, our speciality. Special attention is put on the freshness of the food, which is immediately apparent in the mouth-watering selection of mozzarella, local vegetables, fish and meat.
Guests can choose between two restaurants, both affording peerless vistas of the Amalfi Coast: The Belvedere Restaurant on the terrace is perfect for sunny days and warm evenings, and the Caruso Restaurant boasts both a beautiful outdoor terrace and an elegant indoor dining room.
Guests can also spoil themselves at Hotel Caruso's Wellness Centre, where a full range of restorative spa and beauty treatments are available from an impeccably trained staff.
