Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Marincanto, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the higher floors (3rd, 4th, or 5th) on the Via Cristoforo Colombo side, as these tend to be quieter due to the hotel's orientation and the street's traffic pattern. The hotel's lift is located near the entrance, so rooms closer to the lift (around 2nd floor) may experience more noise from the lift's operation and nearby guest comings and goings.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms near the service entrance, which can be located towards the back of the hotel, as this area may experience noise from staff movement and potential deliveries.
Best views
Rooms on the Via Cristoforo Colombo side of the hotel (facing the street) will have a view of the surrounding town and the sea, although the view may be partially obstructed by buildings.
Quietest floors
The 3rd, 4th, and 5th floors, given the hotel's layout and the fact that these floors are likely to be further away from the lift and any potential street noise.
🔊 Noise notes
Guests may experience some noise from the street traffic on Via Cristoforo Colombo, particularly during peak season or when there are events in the town. Additionally, the hotel's proximity to the service entrance may lead to occasional noise from staff and deliveries.
Insider tips
1. When checking in, ask for a room with a balcony, as some rooms have small outdoor spaces with a lovely view of the town. 2. If you have a car, be aware that street parking in Positano can be challenging, so consider booking a parking spot in advance or using the public parking lots near the town center.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Monnaie & Monnaie
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use ATMs in Positano for the best rate; avoid exchange bureaux and airport desks which add poor rates and fees.
Major credit and debit cards are widely accepted in hotels, restaurants and shops; contactless and mobile pay (Apple Pay, Google Pay) work in most places, but carry cash for small purchases and bar tabs.
Not obligatory; round up the bill or leave 5–10% for good service in restaurants, a euro or two for taxis, and €2–5 per day for hotel housekeeping.
Manger, faire du shopping et voyager sur un budget
Cheap car hire →A standing espresso at a local bar: around €1.20–1.50.
A margherita pizza or panino from a casual takeaway spot: €8–12.
A pasta or pizza main course at a simple trattoria: €14–18.
The main drag (Via Cristoforo Colombo) and side streets near the beach have a few small bakeries and panini stands; cheap eats are limited – plan for sit-down meals.
Supermercato Decò and Conad (local small supermarkets) are common in Positano for basics.
Positano is expensive for clothing; head to larger towns like Sorrento or Salerno for affordable high-street brands.
The SITA bus along the Amalfi coast (€2.60 per single journey) is the cheapest way around; from Naples airport take the Curreri bus direct to Positano for €10–12 one way.
Eat a generous lunch and a lighter dinner – lunch menus are often better value. Buy bottled water and snacks from a supermarket rather than tourist kiosks. Walk instead of taking a bus for short distances within town.

🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →S’entourer
Find train tickets →Napoli Centrale (Garibaldi bus stop) → Positano (Sponda or Chiesa Nuova stop)
💡 Buy tickets at the tabacchi shop inside the station, not from the driver. Ask the driver to stop at 'La Tavolozza' — it's a short walk downhill from the Chiesa Nuova stop, but save yourself the hike up.
Naples International Airport (NAP) → Residence La Tavolozza, Positano
💡 Book a shared shuttle through Positano Shuttle or Grassi for about €60 per person instead. The drive along the Amalfi Coast is spectacular, so ask for a front seat if you can.
Naples Centrale Station → Sorrento station, then SITA bus to Positano (Sponda stop)
💡 Buy a combined ticket from the Sorrento tabacchi — the bus from Sorrento to Positano is packed in summer, so grab a seat early. For Residence La Tavolozza, get off at Sponda stop and walk down the steps — it's steep but saves the 500-metre uphill from Chiesa Nuova.
Naples Molo Beverello (ferry port) → Positano piers (Sporthus or La Porta)
💡 The ferry drops you right at Positano's beach — a 10-minute walk up steps to Residence La Tavolozza. It's worth it for the sea views alone. Verify timetables with Caremar or NLG on the day; they change monthly.

Principales attractions à Positano
💡 Combine this with a walk up to the higher streets for free views of the cliffs; the trail is unmarked but starts near the head of Via Marconi.
💡 Take the path from the church down to Fornillo – it's a 15-minute walk and saves you paying for deckchairs on the main beach.
💡 Visit early morning to catch the light through the stained glass; avoid the mass service between 8–9am if you want to take photos.
💡 Arrive before 9am to snag a spot on the free public sand; after that, you'll be squeezed in among paid loungers.
💡 Start in Bomerano (take the SITA bus from Positano) and walk downhill to Nocelle; this saves you the steep climb at the end.
