Grand Hotel Parker’s, Naples

Corso Vittorio Emanuele 135, Chiaia, 80121 Naples, Italy. (show on map)

Grand Hotel Parker’s in Naples holds the title of the city’s oldest hotel, dating back to 1870. Perched on a hillside in the elegant Chiaia district, it has long been a sanctuary for intellectuals and travelers, famously hosting literary icons like Virginia Woolf, Oscar Wilde, and Robert Louis Stevenson.

The hotel is a masterclass in classic luxury, featuring interiors adorned with parquet floors, chandeliers, and exquisite period furniture. One fascinating anecdote involves the British marine biologist George Parker Bidder, who stayed at the hotel for years. When the owner faced financial trouble, Bidder reportedly saved the day by simply telling the bailiff, “Put it on my account.”

Today, it is a member of the prestigious Small Luxury Hotels of the World collection. A major highlight is its rooftop, home to the Michelin-starred restaurant George, where diners can enjoy creative Neapolitan cuisine alongside panoramic, uninterrupted views stretching from Mount Vesuvius to the islands of Capri and Ischia.

Its location is perfect for those who appreciate both history and convenience. The hotel sits near the lush Villa Comunale park and the scenic Lungomare promenade. Guests are also just a short walk or taxi ride from major landmarks like the historic Piazza del Plebiscito, the Royal Palace, and the iconic San Carlo Theatre.

Whether you are here to explore the underground tunnels of Naples or simply to admire the Mediterranean sunset from the terrace, this historic landmark offers an authentic, refined experience that captures the timeless spirit of the city.

Expert reviews

Fodors review:

“A little up the hill from Chiaia, with fine views of the bay and distant Capri, this landmark hotel, first opened in 1870, continues to serve up a supremely elegant dose of old-style atmosphere to visiting VIPs.”

Lonely Planet review:

“Darling of the Grand Tour set, this stately pile once hosted the likes of Virginia Woolf and Robert Louis Stevenson. Today Prada-clad guests lounge on Louis XVI armchairs and take aperitivo on the sea-view terrace. Several floors of the hotel have recently been refurbished, giving rooms a much needed refresh.”

Breakfast was fantastic!! Room's amazing!! And location fantastic.

Drinks very expensive. I live in LA and our drinks are expensive...but rarely do I pay 16$ for a beer. Seems too much to me. And the mixed drinks even more...like closer to 40$. Wow.

Away from the hustle & bustle

The views from the room were amazing! The staff was very helpful and friendly. I've never had a bath and a half.....it was great! The beds and pillows I wish I could take home with me!

It seems the AC quits running in the middle of the night. Got a little warm in the room. Not near sightseeing places, you have to take a cab. But ohhhh it is so worth staying here!!! You are away from the noise and the views are truly amazing!

Pleasant, views excellent and breakfast amazing.

Very comfortable and clean and close location to the Spanish Quarter

Reception staff could have been more helpful, particularly given this is a five star hotel, and we have experienced better service in a four star hotel

Concierge and Front Desk were very good.

Food was good, service in the restaurant was terrible. We had to request basic things multiple times and even requesting a wine list required three requests and took 30 minutes.

A slice of heaven! You won’t find a better place on Ischia

The property was well appointed. Beautiful location and view. Absolute luxury. CONSTANTINO that runs the villa was awesome. He could not do enough for you going out of his way in every instance. Having said all that are staying included a wonderful breakfast and they even made dinner for us a couple nights. Which was tremendous. Highly recommend.

High quality!

Super high quality in everything! Too bad that we are not planning to return to Napoli because we could stay here again and we would be happy for that. Unfortunately Napoli is so soooooo dirty that it’s not attracte at all to return.

Everything was great but breakfast could be improved little bit.

Hotel to be avoided, restaurant no!

Obviously, the property has a tradition and an inertia from that perspective. I am referring exclusively to the hotel. The George restaurant is outstanding from all perspectives, Chef, quality and Service.

Lack of proper management of the hotel. We experience an unexpected failure of the central digital control system which generated an uncontrollable lights and AC in the room at 02:00 am. When I realize that I can’t control it I called the Reception with the kind request to shoot down the system in the room until day light and to perform an audit further on to fix the problem. It appears they understood, but we wake up in the morning with the AC on with significant intensity and cold. This generated heart problems to everyone, myself and my wife. I reported the problem to the Duty Manager in the morning but he couldn’t care less. This end here, I will never recommend this hotel to friends. By contrary, I suggest to everyone to try the 2* Michelin restaurant. A responsible Manager of the hotel should have put in place procedures for such unexpected technical situations. When you charge these amounts you bear full responsibility of the house.

Luxurious haven in busy Naples

Truly wonderful property, magnificent view, fabulous location super friendly and helpful staff. We loved staying at this wonderful Hotel in a prime location of Naples. The food at the rooftop restaurant was just delicious. The staff were so attentive and made us feel relaxed and cared for. Naples is a hectic city with a huge heartbeat, a wonderful surprise for us. And staying at the Grand Hotel Parkers is a much needed relaxed and luxurious haven at the end of a busy day in Naples.

It was just what we needed. Thank you

The hotel was so lovely. The views from our room of the bay and Vesuvius were amazing. I would say that the location of the hotel for this view was exceptional. However it did take a bit of time to get to the main centre of town.

Very premium hotel with an amazing view.

The breakfast was Amazing - Very good service - All Ala carte and the VIEW was just Mind Blowing! The Hotel has a good location due to the view but the central areas are 20-25 minute walk.

- For such a premium hotel - Sparkling water should be complimentary. Overall everything was good. No Other comments.

Absolutely fabulous.

The staff were wonderful nothing was too much trouble. We arrived early and had a meal on the wonderful terrace overlooking the bay while we waited for our room to become available.

This hotel is beautiful and the staff exceptional. It is a little way from the shops and restaurants but there are always taxis outside and they are not expensive.

Stunning views from the hotel over Naples

Efficient friendly and helpful service. Good restaurant recommendations. Amazing view of Naples and Vesuvius from our room and the terrace and 6/f restaurant area for breakfast. Comfortable bed and pillows. Ample storage space in wardrobe and draws.

Sadly their 2 star restaurant George wasn’t open at the time we were there. The location is about 5-10 walk to the nearest metro. Best to take taxis to port and old town to see the sights. We needed to ask for extra toiletries which were supplied.

Grand Hotel Parker's a special stay in Napoli, highly recommend

I loved staying in my duplex suite, it was spacious, clean and comfortable. The breakfast I ate was amazing, I particularly enjoyed eating my breakfast with the morning view of Mt Vesuvius. I cannot thank the staff enough, they were incredibly helpful in providing me with directions and maps for the city, as well as, dinner recommendations and taxi services. Unfortunately during my stay I became terribly unwell, and I am so appreciative of all the staff that worked on the 2nd of July and especially the staff at the front desk (males and females). They all ensured I was able to rest and monitored me to check that I was ok and constantly assisted me. I wish I had recorded all their names including the young man who collected my bags and the lady who cleaned my room, as I would love to thank them. I loved my stay at Grand Hotel Parker's and will stay here again when I return to Napoli next.
