Hotel Luna Convento – A Favorite for Families in Amalfi
About the Hotel
Rooms with History
Hotel Luna Convento's 45 guest rooms surround a 13th-century courtyard, once part of a Franciscan monastery. Rooms feature traditional Venetian-style decor with deep red accents and painted ceiling murals. All include free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, minibars, and flat-screen TVs with satellite channels. Some rooms offer sea views, frescoed ceilings, or balconies. Suites add separate living areas and terraces overlooking the Amalfi Coast.
Dining by the Sea
The hotel has two restaurants with panoramic sea views. One serves Amalfi coastal cuisine in a 13th-century Saracen tower, where weeklong cooking courses are held. Dishes include roasted mozzarella with lemon leaves and smoked salmon, named after former guest Henrik Ibsen. Breakfast offers a buffet with cold meats, cheeses, fresh fruit, pastries, and made-to-order egg dishes.
Cliffside Pool & Excursions
A seawater swimming pool and sunbathing reef are open from May to October, accessible via the Saracen tower. The hotel arranges speedboat tours along the Amalfi Coast and nearby islands. Guests can relax in the 13th-century cloister, now functioning as the lobby bar, or book limousine/minivan transfers to airports, train stations, and major cities.
Amalfi Coast Location
The hotel sits directly on the Amalfi Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It's 500 meters from Amalfi Cathedral and Fontana Sant'Andrea, 1 km from Amalfi Harbor Marina Coppola. Capodichino Airport is 70 km away. The surrounding area features terraced gardens growing local produce used in the hotel's kitchens.
Monastery-Turned-Hotel
Originally a 13th-century Franciscan monastery founded by St. Francis of Assisi, the property became an inn 200 years ago. The Barbaro family has operated it for generations. Three marble plaques commemorate visits by Henrik Ibsen, Richard Wagner, and St. Francis. The ancient cloister now serves as the reception area and bar.
