Ravello’s reputation for inspiring passion gained infamy in Hotel Rufolo where DH Lawrence is said to have written early drafts of his controversial novel Lady Chatterley’s Lover in the 1920s. Modern romantics can stay in large, well-furnished (if not overtly luxurious) rooms with patterned floor tiles and elegant bathrooms. The terraced grounds ooze with the glamour of adjacent Villa Rufolo.
A swimming pool and killer views are cherries on the cake.
