Will be travelling on the Amalfi Coast in early June and need a nice hotel, reasonable, somewhere along the way. Love Positano, but it seems pricey--any suggestions?

Hi we stayed in a beautiful hotel in Amalfi, it was early April/2000 so I do not how more expensive it can be now, but it is worth the splurge because of the location and beautiful views...it is the Hotel Luna Convento, in Amalfi we paid with breakfast $150.Good luck, <BR>what I can really recommend is an excellent little restaurant in Amalfi, <BR>fish there was outstanding, really very very good, <BR>namea Taverna del Duca, 089872755, <BR>it is on the main street some blocks from the sea. This is not a fancy restaurant, just a very nice one decoration wise, attended by the owner, <BR>food is really good. A meal for two with wine was some 45 dollars. <BR>Good luck

Try the Hotel Amalfi. I <BR>stayed there last year. Very pleased. Have Fun!!! <BR> <BR>V. dei Pastai, 3 <BR>Amalfi <BR> <BR>Tel: 089 87 24 40 <BR>Fax: 089 87 22 50 <BR> <BR>3 Star Hotel <BR>Very Clean <BR>Great Location <BR>Breakfast Included

Margo Classe, <BR>Still giving away tidbits from your Hello...books? Thanks for all the give-aways thus far! Keep um comin!

Hi The Amalfi sounds very nice, but I just wish to say that the Luna Convento is 4 stars and the view from rooms and restaurant, and sitting room could be 6 or 7 stars.....

Topper: <BR>I loved your response and the clues you left. Thank you.
