The food is secondary to the scene at this popular restaurant, where tables are set on the main street in nice weather. Stylish and appealing and occupying a stone-sided building at least 150 years old, it has a kitchen that turns out well-prepared European specialties, usually based on seafood from the surrounding waters. Examples are linguine with lobster, seafood crepes, rice Creole, fisherman's risotto, grilled or baked fish, and a wide assortment of meat dishes, such as pappardelle with rabbit. For dessert, try one of the regional pastries mixed with fresh fruit.
Advantages: Lots to see and do Disadvantages: not enough time

This got a laugh and two very large glasses of chilled white wine(dry and refreshing). The waiter also brought a large bowl of black olives, a bowl of green olives and a bowl of small salted biscuit's (a bit like pretzels) . This cost about £12.00 and was worth it. we sat for half an hour and relaxed. Capri's little Piazzetta is one of the best-known squares in Italy and is a must for people-watching.

Advantages: Beautiful Views, secluded location Disadvantages: No restaurant in the hotel
...We had hoped to go to Sardinia, but that was out of our price range. Italy has always been a favourite so when we found we could afford go to Capri we were really excited.
The Hotel Weber Ambassador were really helpful from start to finish. We booked direct through their website which saved money on the Expedia listed price, though I think it would depend whether you were going high season or not.
Originally we were a little apprehensive having read the mixed reviews on trip advisor, but being of the disposition that a holiday is what you make it we packed ourselves off and flew into Naples.
An Italian bus ride across town to the port and battle through the ticket touts for a boat ticket and we were on our way.
Despite arriving late and dark the hotel had given us clear instructions about how to ring them (toll-free) when we...

Advantages: Stylish, good views, great shopping Disadvantages: Very expensive, quite superficial
...Ciao-ers who have read my travel reviews will know that over the last couple of years I have been lucky enough to visit several places I had long waited to see – some by design, others by lucky hap. When my partner was chosen to participate in a project which would take him to Naples I was very excited because it had long been a desire of mine to visit the isle of Capri which sits in the Bay of Naples.
Now, when it comes to travel, I am a firm believer in looking the part – think Hyacinth Bucket but a bit more subtle…As far as I am concerned, there is much to be said for the “when in Rome tradition”. On my first visit to Ljubljana I took a full-length wool coat with fur trim, a fur hat (Cossack style, very Dr Zhivago!) and some very glamorous knee high black leather boots. My mission, you see, was to encounter a tall, dark stranger and...
