PALAZZO SASSO

About the Hotel

Originally built in the 12th Century, Palazzo Sasso, like many other buildings along San Giovanni del Toro, was part of the aristocratic quarter of Ravello during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. The Palazzo Sasso name originates from the prosperous Sasso family from Scala who settled in Ravello in about 1710.

In 1904, the Palazzo was converted into a hotel and its guests numbered Kings, Queens, aristocrats, poets and writers. In 1978, the Palazzo was closed for 19 years until 1997, when the Palazzo Sasso was fully restored.
