don’t hesitate! the staff at this hotel are excellent; they’re helpful, courteous and friendly. the location is right in the historic centre, moments from via tribulani (pizzas), via toldeo (shopping), a short walk to the fabulous archeological museum, pick-up point for daytrips, restaurants, bars and nightlife right outside on piazza bellini. our room was spacious, with a small balcony, good aircon and regular cleaning. the courtyard where breakfast can be taken is sheltered and pretty, in the evening it’s a lovely spot for a quiet aperitif before dinner. naples is noisy and frenetic but this hotel is quiet and very comfortable.

We booked Hotel Piazza Bellini & Apartments for a 3-night family stay. Our priority is to have accommodation that is close to the meeting points for our pre-booked day tours – Pompeii and Mt Vesuvius and City Centre Walking with Underground but most importantly, a place where we can have a decent night’s sleep to start our busy day afresh. Hotel Piazza Bellini & Apartments met our requirements. The hotel atmosphere has a cool and refreshing ambience feel. We were welcomed upon arrival by Erika and Vincenzo – amazing, friendly and super-efficient duo team. Check in was smooth and efficient. We were given the old style keys (not electronic cards) to our room and we were instructed to hand the key at reception desk when leaving the hotel – different but it works for me, no need to worry about losing the keys while out and about. Erika told us that our pre-paid buffet breakfast is outside in the courtyard on your left and the bar on your right – buffet breakfast starts at 7.30am. Elevator access to our floor. Our rooms did indeed have that modern artistic vibrant flair – the rooms were very clean, has all the necessities you need (body wash / shampoo, coffee/tea condiments, air con, tele and the necessary appliances), to make your stay comfortable and we also had a balcony. The bathroom was of standard size, enough space to put your toiletry bag on the basin with a standalone shower. The hotel also has a communal lounge room equipped with books to read. This hotel is definitely a short walking distance to town. Buffet breakfast is your typical standard buffet breakfast but was delicious with fresh produce, served in their vibrant, spacious courtyard and it’s also nice and peaceful – perfect start to our day. Don’t worry, if it’s a rainy day, the courtyard is well protected by their clear canopy. They have an array of all sorts but we were super excited when we saw Sfogliatelle cakes amongst the sweets selection. We were told that it originated from Naples. Sfogliatelle did not disappoint, nice and crispy on the outside and soft and creamy on the inside… yummm. I have tasted Sfogliatelle in Australia and it doesn’t come close to the original. Erika and Vincenzo are very accommodating, we arranged taxi through them, as it is charged a flat rate – trust me, if you arrange for a taxi yourself, it’s triple the price. They have a good system going, they call for taxi service, in exchange, they are given a code and when the taxi arrives, they will only take customers with the matching code given over the phone – no fighting over taxis, pretty neat, eh? The bed and pillows were firm and comfortable – we had a decent sleep and that’s all that really mattered. If I have to fault anything, it’s the shower, it has a glass wall but no doors to close the shower in - it’s opened and the water flows out a bit. But every time we return from our day out, we return to very clean rooms. I highly recommend this hotel and it’s a bonus that it is located in prime location. Should I return to Naples again, Hotel Piazza Bellini & Apartments will definitely be my first.

“Enjoyable experience all round”

We booked a standard room for four nights, my first impression was that the room was a little on the small side and a bit tired - however after our first night realized that this was the perfect place for us to stay as we were busy exploring the city, islands and Pompei during the days. We enjoyed the view onto the hotel courtyard via our cute Romeo and Juliet balcony. Having long hair I'm always anxious about the shower pressure and was relieved to find that this was pretty good. The room was kept very clean and after returning from day trips the room was always made up. It was a great location, an easy 15-20 minute stroll down to the hop-on hop-off bus starting point, ferries and train station. There are restaurants and bars galore in the Bellini area. On that note our room was very quiet and peaceful at night time (I've read a review saying otherwise, so if you want quiet it might be best to ask about this). My husband and I loved the buffet breakfast lovely fresh produce; tomatoes, salad, mini buffalo mozzarella cheeses, fruit, breads, pastries and also a good selection of meats etc. You can have breakfast in the delightful courtyard area. If I were to visit Naples again would be more than happy to stay here.

“Nice enough but overpriçed”

Great location and nice public spaces. And quiet despite its central location. But massively overpriced for what it is, especially given only adequate service, pretty basic rooms and decent but not exceptional breakfast. At €220 a room O would have been happy. At €350 not so much...
