The Hotel is in Piazza Trieste e Trento approachable via a huge wooden door next door to the piazza cafe (This cafe does sfogliatelle - these local delicacies are lovely breakfast pastries which are best enjoyed hot with a cappuccino!). The side of the door has a bell push and intercom marked with the hotel name. The hotel is on the second floor of a huge imposing building, approached by a small elevator set into the side of the building.
We were told by Pasquale that the hotel was full on our arrival and we had been upgraded (for the same price) to one of their apartments. No hardship there! The apartments (as is the rest of the hotel) are very secure. The one bedroom apartment was immacuately painted and decorated, air conditioned and comfortable.
The hotel location is second to none. Walking distance to the port for boats to Capri and Sorrento and the frequent R2 bus takes you straight to the train station. In addition you are 1 minute away from shopping on via Toledo and the funicular that leads you up to Vomero for locals' restaurants.
Naples is a brash, vibrant, edgy, and chaotic city with incomprehensible driving laws, beautiful buildings and the best pizzas in Italy.
Both the city and the hotel are well worth a visit for a couple of days.
