Tootie...I haven't been to Positano, but I would like to recommend using the "search" feature here to look for "Bussola Hotel" or even "Amalfi Hotels".
Enjoy your trip!

Dear tootie,
Is there a Hotel Bussola in Positano? I found one in Amalfi that got very good reviews at www.tripadvisor.com.

Although you chose a very poor title for your posting, it really does not make sense to start a new post for this "correction" (which doesn't really have any better message header anyway)

Perhaps you simply didn't understand how to find any of your previous posts - - simply click on your own name.

I posted this message to asist you in understading how the forum works.
1. When you want to make a correction to a post, do it on THAT thread.
2. If you don't know how to find a thread tht you previously started, or one to which you have posted, clck on your name.
3. Good "citizenship" here means, among other things, posting messages with headers (titles) that convey something MEANINGFUL about the question being asked. This is not me making up some rule that is just my opinion. Fodors states this here - - http://www.fodors.com/forums/faqs.cfm#Q6 - - "create a title - make sure it is concise and clearly describes your message (and destination, if applicable)"
I believe that the forum is undermined - - even if it is only a little bit - - by those (mostly newcomers) who are unaware of this request by Fodors, or a tiny few who choose to ignore it for the purpose of personal attention-seeking.
Politeness is important, too, and I hope that I have clarified my intentions politely.

Tootie, I have never stayed there but it looked very pleasant on their website - right on a beach, large patio area, rooms with seaviews, great rates. If you search on this site, you will find a few comments about the hotel. Maybe those comments will help you decide whether or not the hotel is for you.
If you are new to this site, please know that there are so many helpful people here with lots of travel experience which they are willing to share to help others with their trips. Rex is one of those well-traveled people who provides us with such excellent travel advice. IMO his response did have an edge to it (Rex, I say this most politely and respectfully as your experience has helped me numerous times) which may have left you feeling as if you had done something wrong. Not to worry - I still can't write the perfect message title and I've been around here for a few years!
So, come back and check to see if someone who has been to La Bussola or knows something about it will provide you with some comments and advice.
Have a great trip!

Have stayed at the La Bussola a few years ago and it was wonderful - right on the water...sorry it took me a while to respond - afraid of getting chewed out by the master chat-roomer!Let me know how you like it when you return - first trip to Italy?
