$$, Capri Town
Fodor's Review:
Occupying a beautiful house overlooking the idyllic Gardens of Augustus, this historic hostelry was built by the tortured German munitions millionaire Friedrich Krupp and was once the home of Maxim Gorky, whose guests included Lenin. Rooms are plain but spacious, with comfy beds ("…crisp white sheets accentuate the blueness outside," waxed poetic one Fodor's reader), and some have south-facing terraces with awesome views. The Punta Cantone viewpoint, Certosa di San Giacomo, and I Faraglioni are all just a few minutes away.
