“A superb stay which we would highly recommend!”
A truly beautiful and atmospheric hotel with an excellent art collection! The staff were very friendly and helpful, two in particular were exceptional! The location was brilliant for exploring Naples and the surrounding areas, particularly Sorrento, Positano and the Amalfi Coast, as well as Herculaneum and Pompeii.

“Hotel with a view, out of the Jungle..”
View across Naples to Mt Vesuvious are amazing. The heritage of this old convent is facinating, level 3 is like a museum.

“Pictures don't reflect reality”
Pictures don't reflect reality and it's unable to get anything close to the standard that they advertise on the pictures. Bathroom was dirty and shower had low pressure. They advertised a TV but gave us a monitor in a room which anyway was pointless as there was no way to actually watch anything due to it being behind a cabinet door that closed on their own. Brekfast is a joke we had baking paper in a cake other than that all you can expect is bread with a slice of cheese and one kind of ham and some ceral out all of that only bread was good. There was no complimentary water in room a bottle in minibar costs 3 euro. They also try to scare you with a unlawful rule that you cannot bring any food or water into the hotel.

“Modern hotel with personality in an old Monastery”
Great location in an old monastic complex overlooking the bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius but only meters away from the amazing alleys of "Quartieri Spagnoli" and Via Toledo. Room with amazing views of Naples and great breakfast. Well kept hotel with a lot of pensonality and modern washrooms and very helpful staff.
