Hotel Cimarosa

If you are visiting Naples for the first time, I recommend this place. It may be difficult to check on the map, but the location of this hotel is very good. You can go directly to the city by mountain train, and the subway station is right in front, so you can easily travel throughout Naples. Of course, the hotel's facilities and kindness are impeccable. However, it is unfortunate that the breakfast has never changed during the three days. At night, there are plenty of things to see and drink around, and the atmosphere is good. Personally, the first priority is the feeling of spicy safety.

I booked a boutique hotel, and got a run-down guesthouse room. On arrival we took three trips up the tiny elevator to the 5th floor for check-in, which looked nice. After check-in we were escorted out of the building, to a different elevator, and back into a 3rd floor room. Not only did the room no longer match the pictures, but there was no air conditioning (made a big show of setting the thermostat on a Dyson fan which they claimed was air conditioning, then admitted there was none), I killed cockroaches in the bathroom, the floor was filthy, there were numerous small things broken like a cabinet door with a broken latch and the sink drain you had to hold up by hand, and the motion sensor entry light went on at 4 am for no reason. The "beds" were hard futon mattresses on a hard platform. On the plus side the daytime staff was nice and breakfast was OK. Despite having prepaid for three nights, I chose to book another hotel rather than stay another night being miserable at Hotel Cimarosa. Unrelated to the particular room, do NOT use this hotel if you have limited mobility. We managed to get my wife's wheelchair in by carrying it up stairs to the elevator and folding it to fit in, but there is no access if you can't do stairs.

I stayed here in 2023 when I was visiting my family. They had suggested this area. I came back with my sister and BIL. Also my adult kids stayed there one night. Vomero is lovely, lively, and centrally located. It's really a hidden gem. The staff really makes the difference. Manuel at the front desk was communicative and very helpful. He was able to accommodate our requests for room location. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and well equipped. I would go back there again if I'm visiting Naples. We were able to walk around the neighborhood for shopping, food, and people watching. The Funicular is conveniently located around the corner. You can reach the Palazzo del Plebiscito easily and walk along the water. From the hotel, there are many lovely visita points. Also check out Villa Floridiana. One tip is because Vomero is on a hill, it's easy to get turned around and end up on the wrong street. Use landmarks to keep track!

Manuel at the front desk was so helpful with information and our requests for assistance , and at breakfast I was able to get a cappuccino made specially for me with lactose- free milk! We loved the view from our balcony of the harbour, with Capri and the Sorrento Penninsula in the background, and the Funiccular Centrale right next door to descend easily to the Piazza Plebiscito and Palazzo Reale area. We found nearby restaurants that were great and appreciated the nearby Metro stop.

A bit awkward to find the hotel. But when we did we were delighted with it, the area it is in is lovely, it has plenty of restaurants and bars and is beautiful in general I always felt safe.the hotel itself was clean well run, and I couldn't really fault it, I enjoyed the breakfast typical Italian style. Yes there can be noise at night, but I enjoyed listening to a busy wk end in naples.also the lads in the station bar nxt door were gentlemen, I enjoyed chatting to them !
