Scale is a great location and Hotel Villa Giuseppina is an affordable and comfortable option. We booked a room with a very large balcony which was a great place to sit and enjoy a drink. The room was comfortable - relatively spartan but functional and practical. The pool and area has plenty of room, pool is clean and plenty of umbrellas for shade. The room came with breakfast which was very good and the staff are all friendly and helpful.

Coming from New Zealand where smoking has strict controls it was disappointing that the European attitude of smoke anywhere is still prevalent. We think a portion of the pool area should be non smoking as it did annoy us when surrounded by smokers at times.

Villa located in Scala, near Ravello, has an extraordinary view. We got the room on the top floor. Overall, it was clean in the room and bathroom, equipped with fridge and air conditioning. Heat in the room, in April being cooler, hot water in the shower. Breakfast was ok, we are not fussy, just enough to eat in the morning and have a coffee. We liked that we had free parking available at the accommodation for our rented car. Pizza with porcini was amazing.

I can say that the duvets we covered ourselves with were very old and worn. Please change them.You can diversify your breakfast a bit, add more options. Food and drinks a bit pricey, but considering the area.

good overall impression, good location, free parking (!!!) the best view, good breakfasts and coffee with the best view

The rooms are old and need some renovation, there was some mold in the bathroom, very small shower.

Our stay at Hotel Villa Giuseppina was amazing. We came home from the Amalfi Coast 5 days ago and we already miss the staff and the wonderful time that we spent there. From the first moment that we arrived at the hotel we already made friends with the staff. Our room was great, we had plenty of space and a nice balcony. We didn’t have a car and we used the bus and I highly recommend doing the same. The walk to the bus station is probably 7-8 minutes and the views are breathtaking. You can buy bus tickets from a tabacco store that you can find on you way to the station. The restaurant was amazing, we ate there almost every night. Also, the breakfast is really good and drinking your morning coffee with such an amazing view us wonderful. If we will ever come back to the Amalfi Coast we will definitely stay at Hotel Villa Giuseppina again!

The only thing that we didn’t really like was the fact that we didn’t have a sea/pool view but we were just unlucky as most room have a nice view.

breakfast was okay . very nice view of the entire property . swimming pool was amazing . dinner options available . we got one of the best view room with balcony. it was cheery on the cake. Staff was very helpful as on request they provided extra warm blankets. hotel have private lemon yard, great to visit this.

breakfast was very limited . after one coffee per person , you have to pay for coffee . location of the hotel can be reached only by private car. there is no electronic key , you have to carry a heavy key every where with you once you lock the door and also specifically deposit it to the counter whenever you eave the premises.

We had room 12 on the 3rd floor and it was the best view ever overlooking Ravello and also the mountins and partly the see. The hotel owner is a wonderfull women whose spirit is unbreakable and she was keeping all guests also at good spitit because we hade very bad weather for the biggining of May. The hotel is very clean and the cleaning stuff and especially receptionist and the best soya capuccino maker on the world - grazie bellas!!! To have a parking slot at this area is a very big bonus and it is included.

nothing

Breathtaking views, fantastic location out of touristy area, very authentic . Beautiful grounds with lush plantation. Loved the clean pool and ability to always get a sun bed. Super friendly staff thanks to be Anna Maria, Francesca and young men at the pool. Loved the large balcony overlooking Ravello. So nice to hear the festival music from across the valley. Would definitely stay here again if we have the opportunity again.

Rooms are small, Showers were tiny , lucky we are small ! But it didn’t bother us just a point to note.

Amazing location, perfect to visit the amalfi coast (we had rented scooters to move easier and faster) and then come back to a less busy, more peaceful location. The view is fantastic and the pool is so enjoyable after a hot day of visiting villages. The restaurant is very good too and the sunset was so nice. The room was very spacious and we had an amazing balcony

Lacking some amenities in the bedroom such as a safe, iron, tissues. But the stay was still fantastic

Excellent location with beautiful views of the ocean and Ravello. 20 minute walk into Ravello and 45 minute walk (down steep steps) to Amalfi town. Scala has a bus that comes every half an hour ish too into the town. The majority of the staff were absolutely lovely and sooooo friendly - especially at breakfast! Great pool too. The restaurant food at night was absolutely gorgeous and the wine too! Breakfast was minimal but we loved the croissants and cappuccinos made fresh!

We booked a superior room and got a smaller one than specified. The balcony was so small only one person could stand on it with no table or chairs. When we mentioned this to the blonde curly haired reception woman, she was very rude and dismissive. She wasn’t very friendly at all and made us feel very uncomfortable at times. The beds were very uncomfortable too with springs in our backs and pushed together to make a double when it was just 2 singles.

The view from the hotel and the room was amazing, overlooking Ravello. Pool area looked great but we didn't use it. Friendly staff, especially at the breakfast area. The breakfast had some fresh cornetti which were tasty and you could get one coffee. Really quiet location and about a 5 minutes away from the central square in Scala. Ravello was a 20-minute walk, and you could also walk down to Amalfi in about an hour through a series of stairs. There was a bus that could take you to both destinations, or if you have a car there's free parking at the hotel.

Not enough variety at breakfast. The rooms were dated.
