Fuorigrotta Business hotels in Naples, Italy

We chose this hotel because it offered what we felt was very good value. The price was very reasonable, and it included a free breakfast. It is located about 6 métro stops on Line 2 from the central train station. The journey takes around 20 minutes to get into the heart of Naples. The staff at the hotel were excellent, providing details on how to get from the train stations to the hotel. The room was very clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was actually very good. All in all it was a very good hotel which I would definitely recommend.

Overall the hotel was fine, meeting our basic need of a place to stay. When booking we didn't have a grasp on the areas of Naples and didn't realize just how far this hotel was from everything else. The staff at the hotel were very helpful although there was quite a mix up with our room when we arrived. When we went to the room there were other peoples' things there and it smelled of smoke. The staff got us into another room but as we got settled, someone tried getting into our room saying they were assigned that room. The key card to the room was next to impossible, even requiring assistance from hotel staff to get into a room, with no apparent solution. The room was sparse, but large. There was one oversized chair which was used as a fold out twin bed to make the room into a triple. The only other seating was a desk chair. The bathroom was small and poorly lit. The shower was barely large enough for a person to turn around in comfortably without banging into the walls. The reception staff helped us to organize a tour with their private driver who also drove us to the airport early the next morning. The staff gave us the names of restaurants for dinner for two nights, although I wouldn't call them recommendations. The first restaurant was fine, comfortable, and had an extensive menu. The second was a tiny neighborhood place where the single waitress couldn't speak English and only offered pizza or one pasta.

The hotel itself is pretty nice inside. My (single) room had aircon, tv, a clean bathroom with shower. Wireless was weak but usable in my room, strong in the hall. On the minus side, the room was extremely tiny, just about 1m around two sides of the bed was the available space; and it had a tiny window on somebody else's noisy balcony. There's also a cage with 7 parrotts in the main hall, and they are extremely noisy at any time of the day and the night. The man at the desk (possibly the owner) did not refrain to smoke even when I was in front of him (in Italy it is forbidden to smoke in public places). The breakfast is continental and quite rich. The location of the hotel was very convenient for me as it is about 15 mins walking from Mostra D'Oltremare, but then that's it: if you want to go anywhere else, you have to spend 10-20 euros on a taxi. There is not really much around.
