Grand Hotel Vesuvio, Naples

Via Partenope 45, Lungomare Caracciolo, 80121 Naples, Italy. (show on map)

Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“For traditional grandeur, the 137-year-old, nine-story Grand Hotel Vesuvio, on Naples’ pedestrian waterfront, overlooks the Castel dell’Ovo and the Bay of Naples. Its upholstered walls, Murano chandeliers and liveried staff suggest the old-school sophistication of another age.”

Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Naples, Italy.

Frommers review:

“Old world glamour holds sway in this famed waterfront hostelry that pampers the rich and famous and provides a Grand Tour–worthy experience (with all the 21st-century amenities, including a spiffy spa and small indoor pool).”

Fodors review:

“You’d never guess from the modern exterior that this is the oldest of the city’s great seafront hotels—the place where Enrico Caruso died, where Oscar Wilde dallied with lover Lord Alfred Douglas, and where Bill Clinton charmed the waitresses—fortunately, the spacious, soothing interior compensates for what’s lacking on the outside.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Naples, Italy.

Telegraph review:

“The Grande Dame of Naples’ hotels has a long and illustrious history, a magnificent setting overlooking the Castel dell’Ovo and a traditional, discreetly luxurious atmosphere.”

Classic luxury at it's best in Naples!

The staff at the hotel were excellent. They were kind and helpful with luggage, directions, and recommendations for the local area. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet as it was well appointed with selections of both European and American cuisine. Great location along the water front.

The property suggests there is an outdoor rooftop pool. It is actually the size of a small hot tub and was closed during our stay. We had planned to relax in the afternoon by the pool on the roof before our early morning flight the next day, which was not possible.

The breakfast is exceptional. Everything was so good and fresh! The gym was very nice, the spa area very charming and cozy. We got an upgrade with our room and had a partial view on the sea! The location is perfect, situated on the water front. Lots of restaurants nearby. The room was super comfy, very clean and beautiful! The rooftop bar has an amazing view of the bay, it was magical!

Outstanding comfort and great service

Staff was wonderful. Breakfast buffet was very good (it’s Italy, so skip the pancakes and don’t expect a real hard boiled egg). Bed was very comfortable.

If we have to nit pick, the bathroom should have an exhaust fan. Also, you have to ask for a coffee maker (no charge), but they don’t seem to have creamer in your room. We asked and got none. Very minor issues. Otherwise really comfortable.

A beautiful hotel in a stunning location

The customer service was a bit of a comedy of errors - especially one female receptionist/ concierge - which would be ok if one were not paying 680 euros a night - at that price, one expects the customer service to be worthy of this beautiful hotel

Coccooned.

Great breakfast and rooftop bar (pricey drinks with free nibbles). Interesting, but small, spa and pool were a bonus. Lots of restaurants nearby.

There's an odd gap if you want an early dinner, with the bar closing for food around 6 (negotiable?), yet the restaurant not opening until 8.30...!

An excellent place to stay.

Excellent location, with a breathtaking view on the Bay of Naples. A comfortable, well-proportioned room with a balcony. Friendly and courteous staff.

I cannot say there was anything I did not like, but I would prefer being able to go to the swimming pool without booking it in advance. 8 p.m. start of dinner service was a bit late for, so I did not visit the restaurant.
