Albergo La Margherita

Albergo La Margherita is a three-star hotel in Scala, a quiet hillside village in the Amalfi Coast hinterland above Ravello. At 8.8 out of 10 across more than 400 guest reviews, it sits comfortably above the average for its category in a region where small, family-run properties dominate the accommodation landscape. The position in Scala rather than on the coastal strip means cooler temperatures in summer and a noticeably slower pace, while the dramatic views toward the Tyrrhenian remain.

The hotel has a restaurant and a breakfast that guests consistently single out in reviews — relevant on the Amalfi Coast, where options for an early meal within walking distance can be limited once you leave the main tourist corridors. An outdoor pool provides a practical alternative to the long descent to the sea and the equally long climb back up.

Guests arriving by transfer from Naples or Salerno will find the airport shuttle removes the logistical challenge of reaching Scala without a car. Those who do drive benefit from free on-site parking, which matters considerably in a mountain village with narrow lanes. Rooms are non-smoking and family configurations are available. Check-out at 10:00 leaves time for a morning walk before the day heats up; arrival is from noon onward.
