Anup

Hotel Bussola, while in a safe and clean location, does have some drawbacks, namely the small shower in the bathroom reminiscent of a cruise ship shower, the interior location that requires you to walk about 15 minutes to get to central Anacapri (there is a complimentary pick up service that picks you up halfway from your journey up from Capri to Anacapri via taxi or bus to the hotel and back to the bus stop). Breakfast options are okay, but the room was clean, small bathroom/shower concern aside. Staff was friendly and helpful regarding questions about getting around the area and things to see. Can get tickets for chairlift and boat tour of Capri at discounted rate at front desk if you book through the hotel. At the rate we had booked the hotel room for, it's on the pricier side given the accommodations, you may find better value elsewhere.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We felt this was a great value for level of accommodations. The staff was very kind and helpful. The breakfast was one of the few I really enjoyed in Europe (Americans like protein for breakfast!) Unfortunately there was no outdoor eating area as pictured that I had envisioned but they mentioned there were some things under construction outside that will be open soon. Do know it is a pleasant 7 min walk to town. Also note that it is the high mountainous area of Anacapri which is a long ride down the cliff to any beach areas. This would not have changed our choice but we would have gone to the beach the first day before checking in if we would have known. The taxis are quite expensive to get anywhere and uncharge you for breathing. Great place, stay here. Eat, sleep and be merry!

Lovely hotel with super kind hosts!

The hotel is excellently located in Anacapri far from the hustle and bustle. From the hotel, there is a super scenic walk (15 mins downhill) to the popular Blue Grotto. The hotel owners Rita and Cristian are kind and extremely helpful. I highly recommend hotel Bussola!
