Nestled within a magnificent park overlooking the sea, the Hotel is a 10 minutes walk from the towns center over stone paved walkways that offer breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding country side in the 12th century villa Cimbrone was an aristocratic mansion, probably built over the remains of an ancient Roman residence. In 1904 the Englishman Lord Grinthorpe, Ernst William Beckett, a connoisseur of art with refined and cultured habits whose social circle included members of Londons Bloomsbury Group , purchased the building and its gardens and undertook their restoration, a project he discussed with some of his eminent friends who frequently visited him in Ravello.
Amid gardens dotted with statuary, ancient ruins, and late-19th-century re-creations of Greek and Roman temples.
Hotel closed from November to March.
