After our recent Best of South Italy tour which ended in Naples, we moved from the tour hotel to the Hotel Piazza Bellini, Via Santa Maria di Constantinopoli 101. What a lovely place this was!
The hotel is very modern, but in a 16th century palazzo. The staff, which seems to consist almost excusively of beautiful young people, is friendly and helpful. We knew we'd be tired after our tour, so we treated ourselves to a terrace room at €162.50 per night. A standard double was €137.50. The room was big and airy, with one window opening onto the hotel's courtyard, and a door leading to our private terrace with a great view.
The hotel does have an elevator and air conditioning, as well as 24-hour service at the front desk. There's a large courtyard where you can have breakfast (there are also places inside to eat, should you prefer,) and a bar is open off the courtyard until 10:00 p.m. If you order a drink, you also get some crunchy snacks, as well. There is also a menu with light food items, but we didn't try those.
In addition to the courtyard, there are a number of other public spaces, including at least one with a small lending library. Our room was on the 5th floor, and we had a huge public area available to us there, as well.
The hotel is located just a couple of blocks from the archaeology museum, and is almost directly across the street from Piazza Bellini, with several places to eat. It's also in easy walking distance from 2 metro stops and a bus stop.
The best thing about the hotel for us was, it was quiet! It was a lovely place to withdraw to after spending time in the bustling confusion and noise that define Naples.
We very much enjoyed this hotel, and would be glad to stay there again.
