La Ciliegina Lifestyle Hotel, Naples
La Ciliegina Lifestyle Hotel, which opened in 2010, is a stylish boutique gem located in the heart of Naples. Set in a restored building, it was modernized by a team of local architects who masterfully blended contemporary elegance with the city’s traditional character. It stands out for its personalized atmosphere and meticulous attention to detail, offering a serene escape amidst the energetic urban landscape.
A standout feature is the “Seagull Terrace,” a multi-level rooftop haven equipped with a Jacuzzi and sun loungers. It provides a stunning panoramic perspective of Naples, offering guests a direct view of Mount Vesuvius, the historic Castel Sant’Elmo, and the bustling Piazza Municipio below. Inside, the hotel prioritizes comfort with handmade furniture crafted by local Neapolitan carpenters and luxury beds from Hästens, the official supplier to the Swedish royal palace.
The hotel’s location is hard to beat for history lovers and culture seekers. You are just a few minutes’ walk from iconic landmarks like the 13th-century Castel Nuovo (Maschio Angioino) and the ornate Galleria Umberto I. The nearby Teatro San Carlo, one of the world’s oldest opera houses, is also just a short stroll away.
Whether you are looking to explore the historic centre or need a convenient base for a ferry trip, the hotel’s proximity to Molo Beverello Port makes it an excellent starting point. It’s a perfect spot for those who want to experience the authentic, vibrant pulse of Naples while enjoying a quiet, high-end retreat at the end of the day.

Staff was great! Walking distance to a ton of shopping.
Nice and modern
Having to have breakfast on the roof top. It was pretty warm, I would have preferred eating inside.

Great location & friendly staff.
Lovely room at the rear away from street noise. Aircon effective and quiet. Lovely breakfast on roof terrace with friendly helpful staff. Great view over port to Bay of Naples and Vesuvius.

Very comfortable and convenient place for a short stay.
Good location, short walking distance from the port. Our room was specious, comfortable and very clean. There was free complementary drinking water in the room. Breakfast was good.
Breakfast was organised on the roof and there were not enough shaded seats. We were sitting in the sun. Additionally, my omelette was attacked by a seagull when I went to get a cup of tea. Anyway, I got a fresh one.

Had a very enjoyable stay in comfortable accommodation close to the main attractions.
Location very good for the old city, Spanish Quarter and coast. Good access for Pompei and Herculanium just up the coast.

A Retreat Amidst the Hubbub
We love the location of this hotel in the top story and roof terrace of a 5-story office building near the Piazza Municipio, the port, Castel Nuovo and the Spanish Quarter. If you are staying in Naples after a cruise, it's perfect and an easy walk from the dock. The Spanish Quarter and the city can be a little daunting if you are not used to the busyness of a chaotic but vibrant city, but the hotel is on the outskirts. It's only a 2 block walk to the Via Toledo and all the restaurants and shops.
This is our 3rd stay at this hotel. The staff if helpful and pleasant, and a bonus is the roof top terrace which we were able to take advantage of this time due to warmer weather. Breakfast was served on the terrace. Would love to return someday.

We will be staying there again if in Napoli!
Wonderful little hotel. Right next to statue of Neptune. Great location and friendly staff. Nice, comfortable room and a great view from roof top lounge.
Our taxi driver had a little trouble finding it. Another couple staying at the hotel had similar experience.

Excellent Hotel in a great location
We highly recommend this hotel for anyone wishing to visit Naples.
It's a small hotel on the top floor of a building in a corner of Piazza Municipio. The entrance and elevator are very unassuming, but the hotel itself is beautiful. We had a good-sized, very comfortable room with a small balcony overlooking a quiet street. The buffet breakfast on the roof was very nice with a great view. Don't leave your food unattended as the birds may swoop in to help themselves - otherwise they won't bother you. All of the people working at the hotel were very friendly and helped make our stay enjoyable.
The location is perfect. It's a short metro ride from the main train station. The main shopping street of Toledo is a block away and Piazza del Plebescito is about 5 minutes away. There are many restaurants within a short walk from the hotel. The port is about 5 minutes walk away. One day we did a ferry trip to the Island of Procida, which we really enjoyed.

Wonderful hotel for comfort and helpfulness!
The room was beautiful, the staff was absolutely wonderful. They helped us get booking to the airport in the morning and just went out of their way to be helpful. We’re American and it’s a little difficult sometimes but they were perfect.
No complaints

Highly recommend staying at this hotel
Great hotel. Located in a very central part of Naples. The staff working at the front desk is incredibly nice and helpful at providing local recommendations for food. They were also helpful in hailing taxi cabs. Breakfast is very good with standard Italian fare of fresh fruits, juices and pastries.
Nothing. Everything was excellent!

Nice stay in Naples
Good spot in Naples. It had a very comfortable bed and would be great for a longer stay. The staff were helpful and friendly. We only spent 2 nights, but if we ever get back to Naples we’d stay.

Fabulous Naples city break
Excellent location & very authentic. Lovely rooftop terrace, staff very accommodating.
Hot tub wasn’t working properly, wasn’t for me.

An ideal hotel for exploring Naples, Amalfi and nearby islands 🫶🏼
Loved the rooftop terrace, with gorgeous views of Vesuvius and the piazza below. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, and they accommodated our every need. Comfortable room which was made up every morning to a high standard. The air con was INCREDIBLE! TV had a range of channels in lots of languages too. Location was ideal for accessing restaurants, bars and cafes, and was only a stone's throw from both the ferry port and the metro line so we were able to travel easily to close islands and around the city.
Jacuzzi looked dirty and could do with a clean, so we didn't end up using it.

It was OK, nothing more, nothing less. The staff was great and very helpful.
We unfortunately didn’t eat breakfast because we left early for our flight.
We were deflated when we saw how dirty the area was around the hotel, especially after coming from the Amalfi Coast where luxury was abound. The driving is insane in Naples. We didn’t like the entrance to the hotel at all and to be honest it didn’t feel like a hotel.

Excellent comfortable stay with helpful and friendly staff who made us feel very welcome
The property was conveniently located for the activities we did. Very secure and considering it’s such a busy city the hotel was so quiet and peaceful. The roof terrace with hot tub was an added bonus and provided a little oasis for a quiet drink at the end of busy days sightseeing.
Nothing to dislike
