Hotel Antica Repubbica offers so many elements that make it a grand place...it is difficult to know where to begin. A large room, separate bathroom and shower (a large shower), lots of bathroom counter space, large bath towel, large hand towels, and not only a washcloth but also a large one! Add to these a simple to operate air conditioning unit, a wonderful desk with chair, refrigerator and freezer, large wardrobe with safe, and breakfast served on the rooftop with a glorious view of the cliffs and mountains.... Antica Repubbica is a great find. A 5-minute walk from the marina and SITA bus stop, depending on the density of the crowd around the pier and in Piazza del Duomo and its immediate environs, the hotel sits back off the high street so feels secluded but just down a staircase guests have the main street of Amalfi with all it offers. Next door to Antica Repubbica is Pasticceria Caffetteria Leone--a must-visit pasticceria--and a minute away going up the high street is Bar Della Valle, a ristorante with excellent food. Try their fresh-grilled vegetable plate, which includes eggplant, zucchini, sweet peppers, and mozzarella cheese. So fantastico I had lunch there twice. The aforementioned with a glass of Martini Bianco on ice made for a refreshing afternoon. Last but not least, Christian is welcoming, full of charm, and ready to offer suggestions and provide directions. I was originally booked for two nights but with his assistance was able to leave my previous stay in another city a day early and head to Amalfi, and I'm so grateful I did.
