The central location on the Amalfi Coast, makes it ideal for visiting Salerno, Positano, Sorrento and the islands of Capri and Ischia. Minori is a quite ancient settlement. According to some historians the city dates back to the first century AC. Its original name is Rheginna Minor. Many roman aristocrats built their summer villas in Minori. The Roman Villa archaeological site testifies that. The villa is just a few steps from the hotel, still perfectly preserved, and open to visitiors. The majestic Basilica of Santa Trofimena, built in the late '700 is also worth a visit. Minori, was once a small fishing village, in the twentieth century tourism and considerable urbanization made Minori a pearl of the Amalfi Coast, from the 1997 World Heritage Site.
In Roman times, it was known as Rheginna Minor, to differentiate it from Rheginna Maior, today Maiori. The ancient Rheginna Minor today houses a rare example of a seaside villa, considered one of the most important Roman monuments of the Amalfi Coast, the superb Roman Maritime Villa of the first century. A.D.
Minori, for centuries, was the only village of the Amalfi Coast to preserve the remains of a saint: Santa Trofimena, to whom is dedicated the Basilica. The Cathedral, dedicated to Santa Trofimena, was restored in 1800 and the lower basilica houses the remains of the patron saint of the town. Santa Trofimena was patroness of the whole Coast and of the Republic of Amalfi, as well as highly revered in the Sicilian town of Patti. Once the town of Minori was full of mills, of this tradition today remains a strong vocation for the production of pasta, used in various recipes and menus proposed in small and typical restaurants of Minori.
