Experience la Dolce Vita in the first Italian Masterpiece hotel in the Oetker Collection, an expression of the legendary island lifestyle.

A luxury experience in the heart of Capri

State-of-the-art design

Renowned cuisine

Hotel La Palma first opened its doors in 1822, back when Capri was still a rustic community far from today's luxurious identity. At that time, only a handful of travelers came to this Mediterranean island, following in the footsteps of the Roman emperor Tiberius. All the visitors found a hospitable welcome at the simple lodge that was then called Locanda Pagano.

Two centuries later, under the ownership of the Reuben brothers, this historic hotel has been reborn as part of the Oetker Collection, which transformed the hotel into an exclusive icon of hospitality with 50 rooms and suites.

The hotel was recently renovated by the famous interior designer Francis Sultana. It is his first hotel project, and he has managed to capture the light and minimalism of Capri beautifully, adding a touch of elegance that recalls the jet-set era of the 1950s.

Experience la Dolce Vita with warm hospitality

Hotel La Palma is located just steps from the island's famous Piazzetta, and is home to restaurants, panoramic bars, a private beach club, a swimming pool, and a signature spa. All the rooms in the hotel are designed to recall the island's golden age and express the quintessence of Capri: the luxury of simplicity, the luxury of immersing yourself in the light and beauty of the coast.

In the beating heart of Capri

La Palma is located in the heart of Capri, between the Piazzetta and Via Camerelle, next to the Taverna Anema e Core. Simply step outside and you'll be immersed in the vibrancy of summer on Capri, returning to the silence and tranquillity of the hotel whenever you want to retreat into quiet luxury.

Savoring the best of Italian cuisine

Culinary direction at the hotel's restaurants is entrusted to Gennaro Esposito, a 2-star Michelin chef who has been at the helm of the famous La Torre del Saracino restaurant for 23 years. Chef Esposito knows the local ingredients by heart and has transformed them into a spectacular culinary journey especially for Hotel La Palma's guests to discover—and rediscover—the flavors of Capri. Diners can relax in an informal atmosphere with impeccable service.

Amazing! A designers dream. Every single detail is so thoughtful and helps create a beautiful and seamless guest experience. The first hotel in Capri but was recently renovated by an interior designer. The location is amazing, in the center of a great area. We organized a transfer with the hotel to & from Capri. The service was amazing, a la Palma staff member was the first person we saw when we arrived to Capri & the last when we left. They made everything so easy. The breakfast is exceptional!

As soon as we arrived to the hotel we were told we would have to pay one extra hour for the private boat transfer, which we did not think was very polite the instant you arrive to a nice hotel, the welcome drink they offered us never appeared. We did call the hotel 3 times to tell them all the trains from Rome had been delayed so hence us too. Just tacky. Suite was fine. Small with one sink. New and clean. You could hear people walking on your head back and forth. There was also a leak in the hallway so men working there on two mornings and it was by the elevator and gym too. We were also told you needed reservations for the beach club and you had to pay for it, with a bill of at least 3 k a night you would think it’s included. The swimming pool is tiny, it looks much larger in the picture. The hotel is really in the mid of the town so any cruise ship tourist will go walking in a large group past it and it’s very crowded. One plus point Florentino our breakfast waitress was outstanding., Such a lovely lady. The breakfast was also lovely.

Titubante all’arrivo, si e’ rivelato un soggiorno fantastico nella mia isola preferita. Hotel extralusso nel cuore di Capri. Hotel dove vedere lo struscio e farsi vedere. Hotel dove essere se sei a Capri. Ambiente fresco, raffinato e cordiale. Le camere impeccabili, non grandi ma curate nel minimo dettaglio. Servizio in camera all’altezza ed oltre. Colazione in terrazza super chic, qualità altissima. Il personale molto gentile specialmente in reception e in piscina. Non vedo l’ora di tornare. Hotel da provare senza pensarci due volte.

One of the best hotels my wife and I have been too. It was the first holiday we have had without the kids. The attention to detail was unbelievable. From the fittings and fixtures to the service. Everyone was so helpful and couldn’t do enough. At the pool they didn’t have pizza on the menu but we asked and they obliged. We also bought a special bottle of wine and they let us open it at the restaurant. We needed a casual restaurant on the last night for 20 of us! They not only booked it but took us there. The breakfast is amazing. We will miss all the wonderful people!
