Where to stay in Naples

From seafront grand dames to converted convents in the old town - Naples sleeps in style, and the neighborhood you choose shapes the whole trip.

The classic choices: Chiaia and the Via Partenope seafront for elegance and bay views, the historic center for atmosphere and food, the Spanish Quarter for raw local energy, and the Vomero hill for panoramas and a cooler breeze. Base yourself centrally - the best of Naples is best reached on foot.

Seafront and Chiaia

Grand Hotel VesuvioLuxury · Luxury

Via Partenope, seafront

The grande dame of the Naples waterfront since 1882, overlooking Castel dell'Ovo and the bay. Grand rooms, a rooftop restaurant and bar, and the kind of old-world service that makes the city's best addresses famous.

Why we love it: Bay views from a 19th-century landmark on Via Partenope

Romeo HotelLuxury · Luxury

Port area, near the ferry terminal

A sleek design hotel near the port with a Michelin-starred rooftop restaurant (Il Comandante) and a private marina. The minimalist rooms are a calm, contemporary counterpoint to the city's baroque chaos.
