Where Hotel Miramare is, and why the location matters
Hotel Miramare is at Via Trara Genoino 27, on the hillside just above Positano’s main beach. Booking platforms list Spiaggia Grande about a 3-minute walk away, roughly 160 m (175 yards), and the Church of Santa Maria Assunta about a 6-minute walk, as listed on booking platforms on October 20, 2026. The ferry landing is described as steps away, so arrivals by sea are easy.
The 4-star property dates from 1870 and spreads across two buildings on two floors. Most room types face the sea, and breakfast is served on a glassed-in terrace. The entrance is about 130 m (426 feet) from the road and reachable only on foot, with porters on hand from 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. The hotel is closed from November 20 to March 31.

- By train: Meta station on the Sorrento line is about a 20-minute drive; Castellammare di Stabia station about 36 minutes.
- By ferry: the Positano ferry landing is steps from the hotel.
- By car: on-site parking costs €50 per day (listed October 2026); the final stretch to the entrance is on foot.

Who it suits, and who should look elsewhere
A good fit if you want a sea view, quick access to the main beach and the ferry, and a historic building with porter service for your bags.
Look elsewhere if stairs are a problem: there is no elevator, the property involves many steps and a 210-step path leads down to the beach. Arrivals after November 20 or before April will find it closed.
