Palazzo Alabardieri, Naples

Via Alabardieri 38, Chiaia, 80121 Naples, Italy. (show on map)

Palazzo Alabardieri is an elegant retreat tucked right into the heart of Naples’ chic Chiaia district. Housed in a beautifully restored historic palazzo that dates back to the late 18th century, it perfectly blends modern luxury with aristocratic Neapolitan charm.

Interestingly, the building originally served as the cloister for the Convent of Santa Caterina a Chiaia. You can still see this rich history reflected in the architecture today. The hotel’s stately Amazzone Bar and the vaulted breakfast room are located right in the former cloisters, giving your morning espresso a uniquely historical backdrop.

The interior design is a major nod to its noble past. It features sweeping arches, elaborate stucco finishes, classic reproduction frescoes, and elegant marble accents. It feels much more like stepping into a private luxury salon than a busy city hotel, offering a quiet escape from the energetic streets outside.

When you’re ready to explore, you couldn’t ask for a better location. It sits on a pedestrian-friendly street packed with high-end designer boutiques. Just a short stroll away, you’ll find iconic landmarks like the massive Piazza del Plebiscito, the grand Royal Palace, and the fascinating underground tunnels of the Galleria Borbonica.

If you want to soak up some coastal breeze, the beautiful seafront promenade and the historic Ovo Castle are just a few minutes away on foot. It’s easily the perfect home base for experiencing the best of Southern Italy!

Expert reviews

Fodors review:

“Just off the chic Piazza dei Martiri, this is a solid choice among the city’s smaller smart hotels—with comfortable guest rooms and a fab location for sights, shopping, and eating. Beyond an elegant stone passageway, a chandeliered, marble-floored lobby welcomes you, its impressive size suggesting a larger hotel than this discrete and intimate place.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Naples, Italy.

Very good

I liked the building itself, spacious room and bathroom, polite staff Good location with a grocery store and seveal restos just 1 min walk. It is really close to the piazza del Plebiscito and piazza del Martiri

Breakfast was not up to our expectations from a 4 star hotel :( Tea had a really bad taste! though served in nice individual tea pots. However water in the tea pot was luke warm and had a specific taste..so it didnt feel like tea, rather like coloured water.. Juice was weird too, tasted more like a fuzzy frink No warm food, exept for scrambled eggs Though overall a good hotel in a good location, the price level is much higher compared other European countries, even to Nordic countries

Truly wonderful, we will return when we are next in Naples.

Beautiful building right in the very heart of Naples close to some of the best restaurants, shopping and only a 15 minute walk from the metro which will get you to Pompeii and Herculaneum within the hour.

Lack of cooked breakfast options.

The A/C did not allow us to lower the room temperature to lower than approx. 26 degrees celsius. The WiFi range was poor and no connection in the room. The shower temperature varied a lot.

Stunning historic palazzo with magnificent architecture and prime location in Naples city center. The grand lobby with its elegant design immediately sets the tone for a luxurious stay. As someone who invests in premium hotels, I appreciate properties that successfully blend historical charm with modern comfort. The central location makes exploring Naples incredibly convenient.

Very different from what I was expecting We travel a lot in Europe and was pleasantly surprised. Could’ve been a 5 star

Beautiful property in great safe area. Walked around and enjoyed it at night. Plenty of choices for shopping and dining Breakfast was an American spread - not your typical Italian breakfast

No issues

Return visit after 3 years. The same excellence. Very classy and comfortable. Clean, large room, comfy bed, fast wifi, reasonable minibar selection. Big bathroom, fluffy towels. Laptop sized safe. Breakfast with a good selection. Always super service and helpful staff. Good location with shops and wide choice of eating out all around, deli supermarket across the lane. 15 minutes walk to the aquarium and zoological museum, 20 minutes walk up to the centre waterfront. I would definitely visit again.

No views from the windows, but I wasn't worried. No tea or coffee in the room, but orderable from the bar

Hotel location was great. Walking distance from shopping streets and the boardwalk. Taxi station 1 minute walk from the lobby. Well appointed room and lovely helpful staff prior and during our stay. Breakfast was nice and diverse, with lots to choose from.

We booked a 3 person room and the bed for the 3rd person was in a "nook", with limited space. It was okay, but not very roomy.
