Around & About

There is a place, in the heart of the Amalfi Coast, where every journey can truly begin. A crossroads between beauty and history, between the calm of the sea and the vibrant energy of winding coastal roads. This is where you’ll find Hotel Il Tipografo di Amalfi, a few minutes from the centre of Amalfi, nestled along the main route that connects the most beloved and iconic towns of this enchanting coastline.

Staying at Il Tipografo di Amalfi means having the entire Amalfi Coast within reach. Just outside the hotel, the road curves through breathtaking scenery, the scent of lemons in the air, and glimpses of the sea that catch you by surprise — a constant invitation to explore, to discover, to get lost in wonder. Amalfi itself is only steps away, with its majestic cathedral towering over the main square, artisan shops tucked into stone alleys, ancient paper mills turned museums, and stairways that lead to quiet, panoramic corners.

But the real magic is that everything begins here.

In just a short ride, you can reach the vertical poetry of Positano, where pastel-colored homes tumble down to the sea, or the refined elegance of Ravello, suspended between sky and sea with its timeless villas and panoramic gardens. From Praiano to Furore, Vietri sul Mare to Minori and Maiori, every village is different one from another, in its colours, small alleyways and views.

For those of you seeking for history and art, in less than an hour, you can walk the ancient streets of Pompeii and Herculaneum, where Roman life was frozen in time by volcanic ash, or explore the grand Greek temples of Paestum located in Cilento, some of the best preserved in the world. Naples, vibrant and full of life, and Salerno, elegant and ever-evolving, offer rich cultural escapes — while the mighty Mount Vesuvius looms in the distance, promising breathtaking views and unforgettable hikes.

During the warmer months, Amalfi’s harbour becomes a gateway to the sea. Ferries and hydrofoils depart daily to the legendary islands of Capri and Ischia — each with its own charm, its own rhythm, perfect for a dip in crystalline waters or a stroll through blooming gardens and scenic cliffs. Even the grandeur of the Royal Palace of Caserta, with its endless fountains and regal halls, is within easy reach for a day trip.

Every morning, from Hotel Il Tipografo, a new adventure awaits. And every evening, you return “home” — welcomed into a space of warmth and calm, where time slows down and the essence of the Amalfi Coast lingers in the air. Because this is more than a hotel. It’s a retreat, a reference point, a starting place for memories that will last a lifetime.
