STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE ||Absolutely the worst place in Napoli in my opinion...||They are liars and thieves, I was told that I didn't return the keys to them, I had a taxi waiting outside to take me to the airport...||I had given the keys to the desk clerk and turned to get my bags and leave, I had forgotten that there was a tax applied for each night and the clerk said that I needed to pay it and and return the keys, I said that I had just done so and he said that I hadn't...||As I was in a rush to leave, I didn't realize what was going on. ||I know very well that I had given him the keys back but he said that I hadn't and a search ensued... I had locked the door on my way out, came straight to the front desk and gave him the keys, but he said that I hadn't, and that I would have to pay a hundred euro for the loss or I couldn't leave...||I had to go to the airport and obviously didn't want the situation to escalate so I paid it.||I realized that I was being scammed by these guys but I wasn't going to miss my flight. ||I was in Naples only to take a tour of Pompeii and herculean which I've always wanted to see...and owing to the tiny streets of the old city where this "hotel " is located, the tour bus couldn't get to my location ...the "owner " told me that he was happy to take me as it wasn't far...||I assumed that he was being friendly with a tourist and followed him thinking we we going to his car...||Turns into a twenty minute walk and then he wants me to pay him for his time and trouble...||P.s. breakfast was supposed to be included with the room and when he asked me for ten euro he also informed me that I had to pay for the coffee as it was not included...||I've never been scammed like this before in any of my travels anywhere....||Certainly left a bad taste in my mouth for Naples...||Also they told me that the trip to the airport was twenty one euro, but the driver charged me thirty five...||maybe this is not the first time they have pulled this...||I had this scheduled as a side trip just for my visit to Pompeii, I had spent the previous days in Rome which was wonderful, I certainly wish I could say the same thing about the HORRIBLE...
Read moreIn terms of the room size, no complaints; it's huge! The bed was comfortable and clean and the air conditioning, which I could control, worked very well. Unfortunately, the window in the corner looks out on an alley or something so there is next to no natural light and the lighting was very dim including in the bathroom; it doesnt look as nice as in the 📸 My main reason for the 3 stars for the room is that there was a persistent smell of urine in the bathroom, so much so that I couldn't stay in there to take a shower at first because I felt the smell would get onto me. The staff (who were all lovely and made me delicious cappuccinos in.the morning and allowed me to store my luggage before checkin) did address it when I asked and poured something in the toilet which helped somewhat but it seemed to only mask the smell with another smell. :/ Perhaps it's just the pipes in Naples. The shower is very small (I am not a big person and I found it hard to move to wash my hair) and the door didn't close properly so water got all over the floor. A very central place and it felt safe but I would hope they update the bathrooms before I consider returning. Also, the 2nd day I went down for breakfast with 20 min left, there was almost nothing there (the previous morning there had been meat and cheese, now there was just cereal...
Read moreI have just come back from a week long stay at the Caravaggio Hotel. A solo traveller and my first time in Naples. It was perfect for what I was looking for. Really central location so easy to get to all museums, places of interest, train station, port, etc. The rear entrance to the Duomo is directly to the right of the Hotel entrance. Even though it is central it is calm and tranquil in a square off the main Via dei Tribunale, so a welcome haven from the pace of the City.||The staff are all fabulous, helpful, friendly and very professional. They were really helpful and supportive with a problem I had with an airport taxi transfer company I had made the mistake of booking with. Rooms are cleaned every day to a high standard by two really lovely ladies.||My room was spacious with all I could ask for. A double bed, wardrobe, fridge, tv, in room safe and a spacious bathroom. Plenty of clean towels provided daily.||Breakfast is a good continental with plenty on offer, including my much needed morning cup of tea, made for you on arrival to the breakfast area (all types of coffee also made if you prefer).||I would stay here again and definitely recommend. Great...
