Albergo Ristorante Garden

Ravello


Still living off past glories (check out the 'celebs board' behind reception) the family-run Garden doesn't have to bend much with the times. Hoarding one of the best views on the Amalfi, no one really notices the nondescript but functional rooms. Throw in a decent restaurant (according to Gore Vidal) and a pool, and the word 'bargain' springs to mind.

Book early: it's mighty popular with the wedding set.
