JK Place Capri

And what an incarnation it is - in our humble opinion this is one of the most stylish hotels anywhere in Europe, and as a result it does get busy so we would recommend booking well in advance.

All rooms are individually designed in a contemporary style with luxurious bathrooms, flatscreen TVs, DVD players and Wi-Fi internet access. Most have sea views, while others overlook the gardens.

Facilities include a gym, an outdoor swimming pool and a spa offering a range of treatments. The restaurant serves traditional Mediterranean cuisine on a large panoramic terrace, and there is also a bar.

The hotel's concierge can arrange guided walking tours, boat trips around the island or excursions to the Amalfi Coast, and a complimentary shuttle service is provided to take guests into Capri Town, a few minutes away.
