The Quisisana is Capri’s most prestigious address, just a few espadrille-clad steps from Piazza Umberto I. A slumber palace since the 19th century, it’s a bastion of unashamed opulence, with two swimming pools, a fitness centre and spa, restaurants, bars and subtropical gardens. Rooms are suitably palatial, with off-white colour schemes and mostly classic, conservative furniture.
Non-guests can enjoy the view from the elegant street-side cafe.
