Hotel Rufolo

Hotel Rufolo is named after and neighbours the famous Villa Rufolo, the 13th-century Moorish-Norman villa whose terraced gardens moved Richard Wagner to compose the Flower Meadow scene of Parsifal during his 1880 visit — a visit that sparked the founding of the Ravello Festival. The hotel stands on Via San Francesco, just off Piazza Duomo, putting guests at the very centre of Ravello's cultural and historic life. A rooftop terrace and seasonal outdoor pool take full advantage of the village's elevation — 365 metres above sea level with uninterrupted views stretching across the Gulf of Salerno to the horizon. The restaurant, bar and library provide comfortable indoor spaces, and the concierge arranges excursions to Villa Cimbrone's Terrace of Infinity, boat trips to Amalfi and Positano, and transport to the Amalfi Coast beaches below. Hotel Rufolo is a refined choice for travellers drawn by music, history and the incomparable serenity of Ravello.
