Hotel La Tosca

A family-run hotel on a quiet back street of Capri Town on the island of Capri

La Tosca is hidden on one of Capri's back alleys, surrounded by birdsong and seemingly a world away—yet only a five-minute stroll—from the tourist crush of the Piazzetta. Ettore Castelli and his Connecticut-born wife have been improving La Tosca since taking over in the mid 1990s—recently adding free WiFi—and the investment is paying off.

Most of the 12 clean, sizable rooms have newish, functional furniture and high ceilings.

Rooms 47–51 all have small, terraces that look over the umbrella pines and nearby Certosa to the sea and i Faraglioni (but these rooms get smaller as they go up in number, and past no. 49 the trees block much of the view).

You can take your breakfast on your own terrace or the public one out front near the TV lounge.

If they're full, they might send you up the block to their buddies at the Hotel Aida nearby (similar in quality, just not quiet as nice).
