Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is right across from the Herculaneum ruins, making it an astounding location with an authentically Napolitan vibe. The rooms were tiny and somewhat outdated, with old bedspreads, but provided a cozy place to rest. The service was excellent, and the staff was accommodating and friendly. The breakfast offered a good selection of traditional regional homemade products, though some items needed to be requested. The facilities were adequate, but nothing extraordinary.
The hotel's location couldn't have been better, practically opposite the ruins. Despite the busy surroundings, it felt very safe, with just enough dining options for a short stay. Perfect for exploring the Herculaneum ruins with a residential vibe.
I had an amazing stay at the hotel, with spacious, clean rooms surrounded by a charming lemon grove. The included breakfast featuring local homemade pastries was a delightful touch. However, the lack of seating outside the main facilities was a slight inconvenience.
I had a fantastic stay! The hotel is perfectly located, just across the road from the Herculaneum ruins. The rooms were comfortable and spacious with a lovely view of the ruins. The breakfast was super delicious with warm sfogliatelle. However, the lack of soundproofing was a bit of a downside.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were clean and had everything we needed for our short stay, but the location required walking through common areas and several doors. The bedspreads were old and dingy. The hotel's authentic Napolitan vibe was appealing for a relaxed stay, but some aspects needed improvement.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room, although a bit noisy from the corridor outside and smaller than expected, had proper beds for the kids. The hotel's location was convenient for visiting nearby attractions but lacked nearby bars and fancy restaurants. The dining experience was delicious, especially the local specialty pastry, although some buffet items were left out. Overall, a decent stay with a few areas for improvement.
