The Grand Hotel Convento Di Amalfi is a twelfth-century Italian monastery transformed into a hotel. In 1212, this building functioned with Cistercian abbey and basilica. Nearly eight hundred years later, is a five star hotel in an area distinguished by UNESCO as World Heritage.

The Grand Hotel Convento Di Amalfi, that belongs to the collection chain NH Hoteles, has 53 rooms and suites and is located at the Grotto of San Cristorio nose in full Amalfi Coast, Italy. The restore operation of this historic building was completed in March 2010, allowing the recovery of a property that was once housed the convent and classrooms.

The original monastery was rescued, and the colonnade, the chapel and the frescoes on the ceiling. Now, with all the amenities a hotel attached to the top twenty-first century, the Hotel Convento Di Amalfi became one of the destinations of choice. The sea views from terraces and balconies, the panoramic restaurant on the top floor and semi-private beach with its inviting hammocks are guaranteed excellence.

The outdoor swimming pool, wellness center and the proximity of the traditional and ancient Hellenistic towns of Sorrento and Positano round the wonderful scenery. Also, it will be almost impossible to resist walking through the ruins of Pompeii or the slopes of Mount Vesuvius. Naples is 75 miles, allowing quick access from the local airport.
