The Best Hotels in Naples, Italy

By Stephanie Rafanelli and Zahra Surya Darma

Situated in southern Italy,  Naples is the third-largest city in the country, trailing only  Rome and fashion-forward  Milan , and continues to be a hive of activity. The city is full of vibrant  artistic scenes , historic hotspots, and some of the best beaches in the region. It's also played supporting roles in many Hollywood hits. But, maybe most importantly, it is the birthplace of pizza. The hotels are equally as charming—tip-to-toe in Pompeiian mosaic tiles and gallery-esque walls against the azure blue waters right outside your window. From boutique boltholes in Rione Sanità to revitalized grande dames in Centro Storico, these are the best hotels in Naples.

Atelier Inès Arts & Suites, Rione Sanità

Best for: design

Opened in early summer 2021, this small hotel (just six individually designed rooms) serves as a showcase for artist Annibale Oste, whose works from the 1960s onwards are collected here. The building itself has an interesting backstory, a family home on the site of an open-air cinema and theater dating back to 1900, in the middle of the Vergini neighbourhood. The ground floor was home to Oste's art studio, but it evolved under his son Vincenzo, who has now decided to open it up to guests. Nearby is Ciro Oliva, the Michelin-starred pizza restaurant, and Pasticceria Poppella—both of which will be involved in culinary experiences for those staying here, and landmarks such as the city's opera house and catacombs.

Address: Atelier Inès Arts & Suites, Via dei Cristallini, 138, 80137 Napoli NA, Italy

Duomo House, Centro Storico

Best for: Neapolitan fun

With his wry Neapolitan wit, Richard Glenn Kiley (whose father is American) likes to shrug himself off as a charlatan hotelier; ignore him. Alongside best friend Roberto Mastrangelo, he has opened five acclaimed B&Bs since 2014 across Naples injecting some pep into a once-dull accommodation scene. In each, they worked around the historical quirks of abandoned apartments, repurposing equally quirky antique finds. A Bourbon cot becomes a brass installation at the new Duomo House, overlooking Naples Cathedral, where a Roman-era pillar juts at the center of the velvet banquettes of reception. Cheeky humor abounds: At Dante House, wooden ceiling lamps are inspired by  scarabottoli,  the boxes in which unnamed skulls were adopted in the cult of the Pezzentelle.

Address: Duomo House, Via Duomo, 133, 80138 Napoli NA, Italy

Artemisia Domus, Centro Storico

Best for: bedroom views

Peering down from a former Bourbon brothel into the paradisal orange gardens of Santa Chiara cloister, Artemisia Domus’s eight rooms (including four spa suites) are named after the female protagonists of Neapolitan baroque painter Artemisia Gentileschi. Cleopatra displays suitable drama with distressed Egyptian gold walls, regal velvets, and a corner treatment bath. But the woman who really defines the space here is Isabella Amato, who offset her son and owner Sebastiano’s renovations two years ago with pink Verner Panton S chairs, an art  library , and her own paintings. Her homemade cakes are served for breakfast on gold plates matching the morning light on Capodimonte Hill.

Address: Via dei Carrozzieri a Monteoliveto, 13, 80134 Napoli NA, Italy

Primo Piano Posillipo, Posillipo

Best for: new design

Architect Giuliano Andrea Dell’Uva grew up in the grand clifftop villas of Posillipo, the Roman seaside resort that came to epitomize La Dolce Vita in the mid-20th century. And it is to this period—and the ’70s—that he returned in 2018 for the design of four-bedroom B&B Primo Piano, set up by friends Francesca and Alessandro on the first floor of a Liberty-style 19th-century palazzo. Italian design pieces and uplifting Vietri reissue tiles in banana yellows and peacock blues create the retro maritime feel for aperitivos at Bar Moccia in the 15th-century Palazzo Donn’ Anna and fried octopus and rock-bathing at Marechiaro lido.

Address: Primo Piano Posillipo, Via Posillipo, 299, 80123 Napoli NA, Italy

Grand Hotel Vesuvio Arrow

Best for: opera and old-school luxury

Once the Naples home of Oscar Wilde, Émile Zola, Pablo Picasso, and Igor Stravinsky, this coat-tailed veteran of the grand-hotel scene has stood like a maestro on the waterfront conducting the bay since 1882. Enrico Caruso was a permanent resident: his pharmacy cabinet and piano are still in his suite (531 & 2). Inside, Umbertine-era Naples is immaculately preserved, a time of white-glove service, red-carpeted ballrooms, gold silk brocade walls, walnut writing desks, and Murano chandeliers the size of cherry trees. (A few doors down, time stands still in 1953 on the preserved Gio Ponti-designed floor of the Royal Intercontinental.)

Address: Grand Hotel Vesuvio, Via Partenope, 45, 80121 Napoli NA, Italy

SuperOtium, Rione Sanità

Best for: art

Naples is ‘muse and stage’ to the contemporary art scene that lifelong friends Nicola Cancio and Vincenzo Falcone connect their B&B guests to. They host a permanent artist in residence and in-house shows by names such as Simona da Pozzo and Blasepheme. A few years ago, they transformed this tiled Bourbon apartment opposite the Archeological Museum into a high-minded B&B and modernist haven with Pompeiian mosaic drapes, Hockney-swimming-pool blues, giant light bulbs (for big ideas), and intelligentsia-worthy bistro chairs, some purloined from their parents’ houses.

Address: SuperOtium, Via Santa Teresa degli Scalzi civico, 8, 80135 Napoli NA, Italy

Top 5 Things to See and Do in Naples

1. Visit the Archaeological Museum of Naples

This museum has one of the world’s best collections of Greek and Roman artifacts from both the city of Naples and nearby Pompeii. There’s ancient jewelry, mosaics, bronzes, sculptures, and a cast of a girl who perished in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 CE. The museum also contains a room that is referred to as the “Secret Cabinet,” a collection of 1st-century Roman erotic art from Pompeii and Herculaneum. Admission is 15 EUR.

2. Check out Villa Comunale

King Ferdinand IV designed this strip of seaside land as a park for Bourbon royalty in the 1780s. Except for special events, it was closed to the public until 1869 after the unification of Italy. In addition to beautiful walkways and gardens, there is a vintage aquarium and several ornate fountains lining the 1-kilometer (0.62 miles) promenade.

3. Hike Mount Vesuvius

Mount Vesuvius is the volcano that wiped out Pompeii and Herculaneum in 79 CE, killing thousands of people in the process. The hike is a fairly steep climb, but a short one (it’s just 30-60 minutes). At the top, you’ll be able to look into the volcano’s crater and out across the Bay of Naples. The entry fee is 10 EUR and it must be purchased online in advance. It’s easy to get here from Naples by taking the train and then transferring to a shuttle bus.

4. Explore Pompeii

The archaeological site of Pompeii lives up to the hype. Buried under 4-6 meters (13-20 feet) of volcanic ash when Mount Vesuvius erupted, the ancient Roman city was preserved as a snapshot in time. Today, you can wander the expansive, 160-acre UNESCO World Heritage Site with its excavated villas, baths, amphitheater, mosaics, frescoes, and gruesome casts of victims in their final moments. It’s a fascinating place, and I spent a whole day here. You can visit the site on your own for 16 EUR, but the best way to make the most of your time is to take a guided tour to get the context of all the buildings and remains.

5. See the Duomo

The Duomo is a 13th-century Gothic cathedral dedicated to the city’s patron saint, San Gennaro. The church is decorated with frescoes, reliefs, and mosaics from across the centuries. You can also descend into the crypt to see the archaeological remains of the ancient paleo-Christian church that the cathedral was built on top of. Every year, the Duomo hosts the Festival of San Gennaro, where a vial of the saint’s dried blood is taken out of storage in hopes that it will liquefy. Legend states that if the blood does not liquefy, tragedy will befall Naples.

Other Things to See and Do in Naples

1. take a free walking tour.

One of the first things I do in a new destination is to take a free walking tour. It’s the best way to see the main highlights and learn about the city from a local guide who can answer all your questions. Free Walking Tour Napoli offers a solid free tour that covers all the main sights. Just be sure to tip your guide at the end!

2. Shop at Piazza del Mercato

This market has been Naples’ main market square since the 13th century. It sells everything from household goods to fresh produce and handmade souvenirs. During the Christmas season, this place is jam-packed with even more stalls selling festive goods.

3. Watch a show at Teatro San Carlo

Opened in 1737, this is the world’s oldest opera house, having survived wars, fires, and revolutions. The inside, with blue upholstery, gold décor, sparkling chandeliers, and almost 1,400 seats gives off a lavish and ornate atmosphere. If you can’t catch a show here, at least do a guided tour for 7 EUR.

4. Explore Herculaneum

Herculaneum is the lesser-known cousin of Pompeii. It used to be a fishing village of about 4,000 inhabitants who all befell the same fate as the citizens of Pompeii. The site is also very well preserved and usually has fewer tourists. While I wouldn’t skip Pompeii, you should also try to work in a visit here too. Tickets are 11 EUR. If you want to do a guided tour with an archeologist , tours are 45 EUR.

5. Watch a film under the stars

Every summer there is an open-air film festival held here called N’ato Cinema. It starts at the beginning of June and then runs every week until the end of July, with screenings of international films and family films. Tickets are just 4.50 EUR.

6. Visit Villa Floridiana

Originally built in 1816 as a gift from King Ferdinand I to his second wife Duchess Lucia Migliaccio, this estate has beautifully manicured gardens, expansive views over Naples Bay, and an ornate fountain filled with turtles. It also houses the National Museum of Ceramics. With over 6,000 pieces in the collection, you’ll see everything from Japanese Edo ceramics to European pieces. It’s 4 EUR to visit the museum.

7. Tour the Anfiteatro Flavio

This was once the third-largest amphitheater in all of Italy, dating back to 1 CE (only the Roman Colosseum and the amphitheater in Capua are larger). Started under Emperor Vespasian and completed by his son, over 40,000 people used to gather here to watch gladiator matches and other entertainment. Today, you can tour the various fallen columns and learn more about the history of the stadium and its events. Admission is 4 EUR.

8. Visit Museo Nazionale di Capodimonte

This is the Neapolitan National Gallery, a museum featuring work by Baroque and Renaissance artists. Some of the big names here include Giordano, Caravaggio, Bellini, El Greco, and Titian. Works date from the 13th to 18th century. Admission is 12 EUR.

9. Wander through Castelnuovo

Castelnuovo is a large medieval castle that stands out along the coastline. Come here to visit the art museum, which houses a gallery of 17th-19th century Italian paintings, including works from Luigi Crisconio and Carlo Vanvitelli. It’s 6 EUR to visit and you will get some great views over Naples and the coast too.

10. Take the Underground Tour

This was my favorite activity in Naples. Located in the city center, you can take an underground tour to explore some of the historic ruins of the city, including ancient reservoirs and the remains of a Roman-era theater. You’ll learn about how the city has been built upon and changed over its 2,400-year history. It costs 80 EUR, but it’s worth every penny.

Naples Travel Costs

Hostel prices – A dorm bed in a hostel with 4-6 beds costs 28-35 EUR per night, while a bed in a room with 8-12 beds costs 20-27 EUR per night. Private rooms range from 75-100 EUR per night. Prices don’t fluctuate much with the seasons. Hostels usually include free Wi-Fi and some also include free breakfast.

For those traveling with a tent, camping is available outside the city for as little as 10 EUR per night for one person and a basic plot without electricity.

Budget hotel prices – There aren’t many two-star budget hotels in Naples. For a three-star budget hotel, prices range from 60-100 EUR per night. Expect basic amenities like free Wi-Fi, AC, TV, and a coffee/tea maker. Some also include free breakfast.

On Airbnb, you can find private rooms for 35-60 EUR per night. Entire apartments cost closer to 100 EUR per night but expect prices to double if you don’t book early.

Average cost of food – Italian cuisine is beloved around the world, though every region in Italy offers its own distinct flavor. Tomatoes, pasta, olives, and olive oil form the backbone of most meals, with meat and fish and various cheeses rounding out the menu.

Pizza, popularized here in the 18th century, is a must when you’re in Naples. Spaghetti alla puttanesca (spaghetti with capers) and Caprese salad (a fresh salad with tomatoes, basil, and mozzarella) are two other local favorites.

Overall, you can eat very cheaply in Naples. As the birthplace of pizza, there is no shortage of options under 10 EUR. Try Pizzeria Sorbillo (it’s famous for a reason). Most casual restaurants offer pizza or pasta dishes for 10 EUR or less.

For other affordable eats, head to just about anywhere along Via dei Tribunali. Chinese takeout is another low-cost option, costing 5-7 EUR for a dish.

If you want to splash out, a three-course meal at a mid-range restaurant serving traditional Italian cuisine costs around 25 EUR.

Fast food (thick McDonald’s) costs around 8 EUR for a combo meal. Beer is around 3 EUR while a latte/cappuccino costs around 1.50 EUR. Bottled water is less than 1 EUR.

If you’re staying somewhere with a kitchen, a week’s worth of groceries costs 50-60 EUR. This gets you basic staples like pasta, seasonal produce, and some meat.

Backpacking Naples Suggested Budgets

On a backpacking budget of 60 EUR per day, you can stay in a hostel dorm, cook all your meals, limit your drinking, take public transportation to get around, and do mostly free activities like strolling the parks and taking free walking tours. If you plan on drinking, add 5-10 EUR to your daily budget.

On a mid-range budget of 135 EUR per day, you can stay in a private Airbnb, eat out for most meals, enjoy a few drinks, take the occasional taxi to get around, and do more paid activities like visiting the museums and taking a day trip to Pompeii.

On a “luxury” budget of 230 EUR or more per day, you can stay in a hotel, eat out for all your meals, drink more, rent a car or take more taxis, and do whatever tours and activities you want. This is just the ground floor for luxury though. The sky is the limit!

Use the chart below to get some idea of how much you need to budget daily, depending on your travel style. Keep in mind these are daily averages — some days you’ll spend more, some days you’ll spend less (you might spend less every day). We just want to give you a general idea of how to make your budget. Prices are in EUR.

Naples Travel Guide: Money-Saving Tips

Naples isn’t as expensive as northern Italian cities like Rome or Florence but it’s still easy to blow your budget if you eat out a lot and do lots of activities. Fortunately, there are lots of ways to save here too. Here’s how you can save money in Naples:

• Eat on the cheap – Have a pizza or take a sandwich to go for just a few dollars to help manage your spending. Pizza is the best food in Naples and won’t break the bank.
• Get the Visitalia Tourist Card Napoli – If you are going to do lots of sightseeing, this tourist card provides discounts on the top museums, tours, and attractions. It’s priced to save you money compared to buying separate tickets and includes free public transportation. A one-day pass costs 14.50 EUR, a two-day pass costs 19 EUR, and a three-day pass costs 23.50 EUR. There’s even a week-long pass for just 26.80 EUR.
• Buy wine instead of going to a bar – You can buy a great bottle of wine for just a few euros at the store. It’s a lot cheaper than drinking at the bar.
• Stay with a local – Accommodation is quite expensive in Italy, even in the hostels. Use Couchsurfing to stay with locals who have extra beds and couches for free. It’s a great way to save money and connect with locals who can share their tips and advice. Just make sure to send your requests early.
• Go on a free walking tour – This is a great way to learn the history behind the places you are seeing and to avoid missing any must-see stops. Free Walking Tour Napoli runs regular tours to help you get your bearings and see the main highlights. Just don’t forget to tip your tour guide!
• Bring a water bottle – The tap water here is safe to drink so bring a reusable water bottle to save money and reduce your plastic use. LifeStraw is my go-to brand as their bottles have built-in filters to ensure your water is always clean and safe.

Where to Stay in Naples

Looking for an affordable place to stay when you visit? Here are some of my recommended places to stay in Naples:

• Hostel Mancini
• Hostel of the Sun
• La Controra Hostel

How to Get Around Naples

Public transportation – When it comes to public transportation in Naples, it’s best to get a TIC (Ticket Integrato Campani) ticket, which works on all city metro, bus, and funicular services. A single ticket costs 1.60 EUR and is good for 90 minutes. A one-day pass is 4.50 EUR and a weekly ticket is 15.80 EUR.

The bus isn’t the most efficient way to get around Naples, but it’s useful for navigating Corso Umberto (the long main commercial street) since there is a designated bus lane.

Naples has a metro, but it doesn’t have an extensive network so the bus is usually a better idea.

Train – The Circumvesuviana trains from Napoli Centrale runs to Sorrento for 4.50 EUR, and Herculaneum for 2.20 EUR. Pompeii costs just 2.80 EUR. The Ferrovia Cumana trains run to Pozzuoli for 2.20 EUR.

A great resource to use when planning your trip via train is ItaliaRail .

Taxis – Taxis are not cheap here. Meter rates start from 4.25 EUR and cost 1 EUR per kilometer. Skip the taxis if you can as they add up fast. If you do need a taxi, make sure the driver uses the meter so you don’t get ripped off.

Bike rental – Naples is a bike-friendly city and rentals can be found for as little as 10 EUR per day.

When to Go to Naples

Thanks to its location on the Mediterranean, Naples is warm year-round. The summer months (June-August) are the most popular time to visit but they are also scorching, with temperatures usually above 31°C (88°F). July is also the driest month of the year. Many Italians take their vacations in August, so it gets particularly crowded here then. Expect accommodation to be booked well in advance (and to be more expensive) during this time.

Personally, I think the shoulder seasons are the best time to visit Naples (April-May and September-October). You’ll avoid peak tourism season and you’ll still have nice weather. Temperatures average around 22°C (72°F) which is much more tolerable.

This is especially a good time to visit Naples if your priority is going to Pompeii or Herculaneum. There will be fewer crowds and you will be a lot more comfortable exploring the ruins in cooler temperatures. There isn’t much shade at these sites and very few places to sit and take breaks.

December to February are the coldest months, with daily highs around 8°C (46°F). This isn’t the best time to visit, but prices will be a little lower and the crowds are gone.

How to Stay Safe in Naples

Naples is a very safe place to backpack and travel but often gets a bad rap for being a bit grittier than other places in Italy. Pickpocketing is the most common crime you’ll encounter here so you need to stay vigilant in crowded areas (especially on public transportation). Always keep your valuables secure and out of reach.

When taking a taxi, always make sure they use the meter so you don’t get ripped off.

Solo female travelers should generally feel safe here, however, the standard precautions apply (don’t leave your drink unattended at the bar, don’t walk around alone at night intoxicated, etc.).

While scams here are rare, if you’re worried about getting ripped off you can read about common travel scams to avoid here.

The Spanish Quarter is a little sketchy at night, so avoid that area after dark or if you’re alone.

If you’re walking everywhere, stay alert! The traffic in Naples is crazy, and drivers do not respond to traffic lights very well. Be careful when crossing the street.

If you experience an emergency, dial 113 for assistance.

Always trust your gut instinct. Make copies of your personal documents, including your passport and ID.

The most important piece of advice I can offer is to purchase good travel insurance. Travel insurance will protect you against illness, injury, theft, and cancellations. It’s comprehensive protection in case anything goes wrong. I never go on a trip without it as I’ve had to use it many times in the past. You can use the widget below to find the policy right for you:

Why Go To Naples, Italy

The third-largest city in Italy is chock full of history, art, architecture and delicious food, yet it gets a bad rap for its crime and grime. While these blemishes are certainly a reality for residents, they're far from ubiquitous, especially where tourism is concerned. Choose to literally find higher ground at places like Certosa e Museo di San Martino and you'll be rewarded with truly spectacular views. Stroll the Via Caracciolo e Lungomare di Napoli  or chat with the friendly locals and you'll start to experience some of the magic that this port city holds. And, of course, you can't forget the transcendence that comes from that first bite of Neapolitan pizza (in the city credited with inventing the pizza pie), nor that perfect sip of espresso. 

You can't judge a book by its cover, and you most certainly can't judge a city for its rough edges – doing so would make it easy to miss out on its real treasures, including underground frescos, royal palaces, Tuscan architecture and so much more.

Naples, Italy Travel Tips

Best months to visit.

The best time to visit Naples is between March and April when the weather is mild and the tourist crowds aren't quite so thick. Summertime is characterized by hot and humid weather and makes touring everything but the beach sticky and sweaty. In the fall, you'll experience a drop in temperatures, but this is accompanied by ample rain showers. Between December and February, you'll find mild winters (highs hover in the mid-50s) with sunny days alternating with gray, gloomy ones – but the lineup of Christmas-related events and low season lodging rates may be worth the relatively chilly temps.

Weather in Naples, Italy

Data sourced from the National Climatic Data Center

What You Need to Know

• It's a football city Don't whisper a word against the Napoli professional football team or its star – retired player Diego Maradona – or you might find yourself in hot water.
• It's got some grit Naples has a reputation when it comes to its trash (overflowing dumps and mafia interference are to blame). Don't be surprised if you see household garbage strewn across city streets and sidewalks (an especially smelly nuisance come summertime).
• It's hilly, yet walkable.  Although Naples sprawls across 45 square miles, its historic city center is compact (albeit hilly), making it perfect for pedestrians.

How to Save Money in Naples, Italy

• Eat pizza and drink wine Buying your slices on the street and purchasing wine by the bottle will make both your taste buds and your wallet happy.
• Buy a tourist card If you're planning to tour all of the city's top attractions, buy a Visitalia Tourist Card , which offers discounted entrance fees.
• Don't rent a car Rather than sinking your money on a rental car, rely on your own two feet to get around , or take the train or bus to reach attractions located outside the city center.

Culture & Customs

Naples has a far-reaching religious history. The first cathedral was raised over the site of one of Apollo's temples back in the fourth century. Throughout the centuries, Naples has also developed and maintained some unique rites, such as bringing pillows and gifts to skeletons in tombs. Although rituals like these aren't widely practiced anymore, there are nonetheless a plethora of religious-themed festivals that take place annually, including the Festa di San Gennaro. 

Unfortunately, Naples has a notorious history of crime, as the city is home to the Camorra, an Italian mafia syndicate. Although it's unlikely that you will encounter any kind of activity related to the Camorra, it's still wise to be aware of your surroundings, especially at night in off-the-beaten-track areas and places prone to crime, such as Piazza Garibaldi (which sits near the city's largest train station – a magnet for petty crime) and the Spanish Quarter. 

Naples moves at a slower pace, which is probably the result of its laid-back populace and the heat and humidity that settles in the city come summertime. This means that public transportation tends to be inefficient at times, and restaurants and other businesses may take the day off. 

As with other cities in Italy, Italian is the official language in Naples and the euro is the official currency. The euro is equal to about one U.S. dollar, but since the rate fluctuates, plan to check it before you go . Tipping at dining establishments isn't obligatory like it is in the States. Many professionals employed in the tourist industry – hoteliers, restaurateurs and travel guides – will likely know some English, but many locals will not, so it's best to memorize some common Italian phrases. Say "hello" with  buon giorno  or  buona sera , depending on the time of day. You can say "excuse me" with mi scusi and "thank you" with grazie .

What to Eat

The Naples dining scene in one word? Pizza. Made with San Marzano tomatoes and mozzarella Campana, Margherita pizza was invented in Naples – according to lore, at Pizzeria Brandi – but it's a staple throughout the city. For another great taste of the Neapolitan original, visit L'Antica Pizzeria da Michele . 

Other delectable foods can be found at Spaccanapoli, a street located adjacent to Christmas Alley. Spaccanapoli is home to Neapolitan specialties like frittatina (fried pasta served with tomato sauce and cheese) and cakes, such as ricotta-stuffed sfogliatella , orange-infused pastiera and rum-flavored baba . And for a cool treat on a warm night, try any one of the gelato cafes that ring Naples' Mergellina Bay. 

Along with pizza and gelato, coffee is another Italian specialty you won't want to miss while in Naples. Caffè Mexico and Gran Caffè Gambrinus are among the city's most beloved coffee bars. (Down an espresso at the bar to experience coffee like a true Italian.) While you're at it, check out granita – a refreshing drink usually made with fruit, syrups and ice, which is also said to have originated in Naples. You can find it at nearly every cafe in the city, especially those that border the water.

Getting Around Naples, Italy

The best way to get around Naples is on foot. Most of the city's attractions are located within walking distance of one another, plus you'll get the full Naples experience by strolling its cobbled streets. When you need to reach places farther afield, such as the Museo di Capodimonte and Certosa e Museo di San Martino , you can jump on one of Naples' funiculars. Of course, hopping in a taxi is always an option, too. You can also traverse the city via bus, but because of road traffic, you're often better off walking. The metro is another option, though it's better suited to commuters who travel from the suburbs into the city during the work week. 

The closest airport is Naples International Airport (NAP), which also goes by the name Capodichino Airport. It's located a short 2.5 miles from the heart of Naples. A taxi ride from the airport to the historic city center will cost a flat rate of 16 euros (about $18).

According to recent travelers, the sweeping views of Naples and Mount Vesuvius are reason enough to plan a visit to the Certosa e Museo di San Martino .

Discovering the historic centre of Naples: what to see and where to stay

Naples is the city with the largest historic centre in Europe

Naples is one of the oldest cities in Europe and with the largest historical city centre . Here you can find all the traces of its cultural influences, crossing and telling 27 century oh history. 

In 1995, a portion of its historic city centre was declared UNESCO World Heritage Site for its unique universal value, which profoundly influenced most of Europe. An incredible stage of art, history and urban expression for almost three millennia. 

The true essence of Naples is in Spaccanapoli

"Spaccanapoli" is the most characteristic road in the historical city centre of Naples. It goes from the Spanish Quarters to the district of Forcella, cutting in a straight line the city of Naples. If you watch it from San Martino in the highest part of the city, you will understand the why of its name.

In Spaccanapoli, you can find a lot of impressive Neapolitan handicraft shops.  You will discover all the stories, curiosities and anecdotes of Neapolitan tradition and folklore.

A trip in Spaccanapoli is a journey through the thousand-year history of the city, where there are not only the ancient palaces, the churches, but also the legends and the unmistakable smells of Neapolitan cuisine. 

Along the route of Spaccanapoli, you will meet beautiful churches and families living in the “bassi”, artists and artisans. But do not be surprised at anything! Spaccanapoli is not a tourist postcard, it is Naples!

Mystery and culture: the San Severo Chapel Museum

Hidden in the alleys of the historic centre of the city.  Cappella di San Severo , also called the church of Santa Maria Della Pietà or Pietatella , is one of the most fascinating and mysterious museums in Naples .

Located in the centre of the Chapel, the Cristo Velato (Veiled Christ) is one of the most beautiful and evocative works in the world, whose image has become famous all around the world for the prodigious “weaving” of the marble veil. 

In Sansevero Chapel, there are also wonders of virtuosity as “Disinganno” and enigmatic presences as “Macchine Anatomiche”. 

Legends and unique tours: the history of Naples Underground

The Naples that we see today rests its foundations on an ancient network of as many underground roads. In Underground Naples, we found the tunnels excavated by the Greeks when they began to extract the tuff from the subsoil to strengthen the city walls.

Over the centuries, the underground Naples has been in ferment almost as much as that on the surface. The tunnels below Naples have been used in different ways.

During World War II, the underground Naples was modified to accommodate the population during the bombing. During the war years, about four thousand people populated the underground city, waiting for the war to allow the return to daily life.

According to popular belief, Underground Naples is a place frequented by the funny “Monaciello” (monk): the spirit who inhabited the buildings of Naples; this could find money in the drawers or the jackets hanging at the entrance. But, by chance, the spirit was offended, showing little devotion or claiming not to believe in ghosts, the revenge of the "Monticello" was inevitable.

An obelisk, a church and a view of the Santa Chiara Monastery: Piazza del Gesù Nuovo

Piazza del Gesù was born casually when the city was widening westward. It is one of the most important squares of Naples. You reach it, walking along Spaccanapoli. There are three significant monuments in the square: Gesù Nuovo Church, the Immaculate Oblisk and Santa Chiara Monastery. 

The church has a typical Neapolitan Baroque architecture, with marble, decorations and paints. According to the legend, the building was built with magic stones , able to attract positive energies. Inside the church, there is San Giovanni Bosco Chapel, where on the walls, there are thousands of ex-votos  as signs of gratitude for the miracles. 

Also, about the Square's Obelisk,  there are many legends. Watching it during some hours of the day, thanks to a game of lights and shadows, you can glimpse death's image. 

The Monastery of St Clare and the cloister with tiles

In the beginning, the Santa Chiara Monastery was a Gothic building, then transformed into a Baroque example, till to go back to its origins after the post-war restoration. 

It was born by Roberto D'Angiò's willing and, under the Angioinians, was the fulcrum of civil and religious ceremonies. Close to the monastery, there is the famous and beautiful Majolica Cloister  with its pillars completely covered by blue, yellow and green majolicas: colours that perfectly match with their surroundings. The cloister is a proper peace oasis in the chaotic heart of Neaples. 

San Domenico Maggiore square in Naples

Piazza San Domenico Maggiore stands up in the centre of Naples as a reality unto itself, absolutely alien to the surrounding traffic. Far away by modernity, the square takes the gaze of the beholder. 

In its centre, the monumental obelisk built by the Dominicans in 1556 as gratitude for the ending of the plague . Next it, the Basilica in Baroque style. 

The square is populated, both on the day and the night, by tourists and youth.

7 of the best city breaks in Italy, from art-filled Florence to coastal Cagliari

L ooking for a skiing holiday , summer sizzle or glamorous cruise ? The Italian landscape is preened for every season on the travel calendar, but none more so than the time-short and culture-hungry traveller’s favourite – the perennial city break .

Famed for its rich regional gastronomy – think bowls of bolognese, wood-fired pizzas and scoops of gelato – Italy’s cities have all the ingredients to tick off sightseeing, culture and history from a city break bucket list.

Tourists may first be drawn to the rustic glamour of the capital, but it’s not just “when in Rome ” – the Mediterranean country is a tapestry of ancient ruins, rolling hills and timeless art from boot to heel.

Harbourside island hubs in Sicily in Sardinia blend beach days with Baroque architecture, while Naples and Milan compete to polish the edges of their authentic offerings into holidaymaker-friendly hotspots.

From Renaissance Florence to coastal Cagliari, here are the best cities to visit for the ultimate Italian experience.

• The best Italy holiday destinations: When to travel and where to stay

Milan, Lombardy

Once a key player in Italy’s industrial Golden Triangle, Milan has remained a frontrunner in finance and high-end fashion. You’ll notice there’s no shortage of brand names in the dome-topped Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. However, the northern city is not without old-world charm, from the operas and ballets of Teatro alla Scala to the grand paintings in the Pinacoteca di Brera museum. Not forgetting the ornate Duomo di Milano cathedral with sweeping city views. Even better, all these sights are easily reached via the Campari-coloured tram network.

Where to stay

True to Milan’s industrial roots, Nnow Milan is housed in a former electrics factory with a fashionable twist. The hotel brings splashes of orange and purple to its modern, minimalist rooms. It also boasts a a quirky rooftop pool terrace, Turkish bath and Italian bistro in the same style.

Catania, Sicily

The unsung star of Sicily , Catania sits at the foot of active volcano Mount Etna. It has an ancient Baroque centre, trattoria-littered squares and dramatic natural wonders that tick all the boxes for an Italian city break . If that isn’t enough, Sicilian street food staples include arancini and ricotta-filled cannoli. These tempting treats can be enjoyed by travellers taking the cable car up Etna, exploring ruined amphitheatres and admiring the facade of the Cattedrale di Sant’ Agata. Don’t miss the festivities in February when the Festival of Saint Agatha commemorates the Sicilian patron saint with a parade of relics, music and a feast.

On Via Crociferi, one of Catania’s oldest Baroque streets, Crociferi B&B is a Sicilian hideaway with frescoed ceilings, sea-view terraces and antique accents. On the breakfast menu, homemade cakes, juice, jam and cold cuts fuel days spent exploring the old town.

Florence, Tuscany

Tuscany’s compact capital still thrives in the Renaissance riches of the creatives it once hosted, from Michelangelo to Dante. With a riverside horizon of Tuscan hills on one side and belltowers and domes on the other, chic Florence has also made a name for itself on the shopping scene with luxury leather stores and designer brands dotting the streets. Galleries including the Pitti Palace and the Basilica di Santa Croce showcase timeless art masterpieces and, the third largest church in the world, The Duomo, is an unmissable Gothic landmark with a famous Florentine flair.

At 19th century residenza, Antica Dimora Johlea, six high-ceiling bedrooms exude warmth. Rooms are designed in traditional Tuscan style with coloured silk drapes and the roof terrace has enviable views of landmarks on the Florentine skyline.

Bari, Puglia

On Italy’s coastal heel, Bari is a port city where buzzing nightlife and balmy beaches meet the traditional culture of Puglia . In the old town, known as Bari Vecchia, you’ll find impressive churches including the Basilica San Nicola cathedral, as well as a  Strada delle Orecchiette  pasta street and the artsy Piazza Del Ferrarese square – all scattered between elaborate Italianate buildings. For dinner, it’s got to be focaccia and fresh fish rounded off with a palette cleansing gelato from local loved Gentile.

Atipico B&B offers the Barese experience up steep steps in an old town cul-de-sac. In the B&B, three cosy, rustic rooms, each with a TV, fridge and balcony, epitomise space-saving for a compactly comfortable short break in Bari.

Cagliari, Sardinia

Cagliari, Sardinia ’s capital, sparkles on a curved Mediterranean coastline with 25 centuries of heritage to discover – plenty to fill a short break. The harbourside city, home to the steep lanes of Castello, the Giardini Pubblici formerly royal gardens and flamingo-populated Poetto Beach, is cloaked in legends, and a lack of light pollution makes it the ideal place to spot constellations – ideally with a Sardinian sausage sandwich in hand.

Undeniably, breakfast is best from a rooftop terrace with harbour views. At Marina Di Castello, one of Cagliari’s most elegant B&Bs, four spacious and modern rooms invite guests to tuck in for the night  and  for sweet pastries just steps from the Via Roma main street.

Rome, Lazio

The Italian capital spills over seven hills – it’s an open-air museum of fountains, ruins and Renaissance echoes. With a tangle of enduring landmarks including the Colosseum and Pantheon still firmly on the map, remnants of Ancient Rome are wonderous must-sees for city breakers visiting the Eternal City. Carbonara by the bucketload, cappuccino breaks and vista point picnics on Aventine Hill are encouraged during days spent, undoubtedly, on sightseeing overload.

In lively Trastevere, Hotel Santa Maria – once a 16th century convent – hosts characterful terracotta rooms set around a charming courtyard of citrus trees, just a short walk from the centre of Imperial Rome.

Naples, Campania

Often disregarded as Italy’s ‘gateway’ to the citrus-studded Amalfi , a Naples city break quenches the thirst for local authenticity with a rugged energy that’s less shiny than the tourist-preened likes of Rome and Venice . The birthplace of pizza isn’t without its own big hitters. There are Unesco-listed Greco-Roman streets in Centro Storico, Napoli Sotterranea – an underground labyrinthine of tunnels – and the  Quartieri Spagnoli  Spanish Quarter, perfect for sipping an Aperol spritz on long Napoli weekends.

For personable tranquillity on the hillside of Vomero, family-run B&B Weekend a Napoli is a home from home. The Art-Nouveau villa comes complete with a patio garden and authentic Italian breakfast spreads, all just 200 metres from a metro station.

Hi everyone,

4 replies to this topic

Booking.com has lots of options.

Several years ago we stayed at Hotel Palazzo Decumani. The hotel and location were great.

Thanks lancer11, that helps because it's one of the hotels I found with good reviews.

Have a look along the Lungomare near the island castle - there are some reasonable hotels down there, it’s a quieter safe area, handy for the harbour and within reasonable walking distance of the more hectic, old centre.

New York City by The MICHELIN Guide

See the New York City guide

In 2024, The MICHELIN Guide is announcing the first ever MICHELIN Keys — a brand new distinction that recognizes the most outstanding hotels across the world. Head here for everything you need to know about the new Key distinction, and visit this page to explore the full list of Key hotels in the United States.

The Three Key distinction is the highest hotel honor in The MICHELIN Guide. Earning One Key (80 properties) or Two Keys (33 properties) is difficult enough, but only 11 hotels earned Three Keys in the United States. Of those, four can be found in New York City. The Three Key hotels excel in all five criteria used to judge hotels by our Inspectors. But in this series , we thought it fitting to focus on just one of those criteria — the most photogenic of the five — architecture and interior design. Below, take a look at the interiors and exteriors of each of our four Three Key hotels in New York City.
