Hi Am looking for a Hotel on the Amalfi Coast that is clean and in a good location and also looking for something that isnt to $$$ thanks for your help.

Rose, you might get more responses if you mention specifically where on the Amalfi Coast you'd like to stay -- Sorrento? Capri? Positano? Amalfi? or give some other clues to your trip.

Rose79

Well im not even sure where would love positano but seems very $$$ so am open for any suggestions.

try www.karenbrown.com - Italy hotels and her Italy Inns - great recommends in Positano or Ravello

My own personal recommendation is the Onda Verde in Praiano. If you have a car it fits all your requirements.

Hi Rose,

We very much liked our stay at the Hotel Le Sirene in Praiano. www.lesirene.com.

See my trip report

You have made a good choice Rose,check out the SITA bus timetables at WWW.sita-on-line.it for bus trips to Positano, Sorrento and Amalfi. (Campania)

Thanks Walkamalfi... what do you think about hiring a vespa in Priano to get around and see the other towns??

Hi Rose,

I think you will enjoy Le Sirene.

Are you an experienced motorcycle driver? If not, Italy is not a good place to learn.

walkamalfi

A vespa is an ideal way of getting around the Amalfi Coast. I use mine almost every day in the summer months when parking becomes a nightmare. Driving does appear to be precarious to coachbound tourists but in a small car or on a vespa it gives the tourist a huge amount of freedom.

Look into Albergo California in Positano. Was cheap for the area, very clean, great location, free parking, huge rooms comparitively speaking.

Hi Ira,

Nope havent I didnt even think you need to know how to ride one.. Do you need a motorcycle licence??

Thanks Swaletr will look into that as well!!!

ira

Hi rose,

I'm sure you could rent a vespa without a motorcycle license.

However, learn to drive one before you go to Italy.
