The setting
Clinging to the limestone cliffs above Amalfi's harbour on the SS163 Amalfitana, Anantara Convento di Amalfi Grand Hotel inhabits a convent founded in 1212 by Amalfitan Cardinal Pietro Capuano — subsequently a Cistercian abbey, a nautical institute, and a celebrated hotel — its original cloisters, Baroque chapel, and lemon terraces preserved intact. The Cathedral of Sant'Andrea Apostolo, spiritual heart of the medieval Maritime Republic of Amalfi, lies eleven minutes' walk downhill.
