Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The gates open onto pedestrian Via Fuorlovado, putting the cafes of the Piazzetta and shopping along Via Camerelle steps away.

The rooms
Hand-painted ceramic tiles and tailored antiques furnish the rooms. Select suites open onto private terraces with stone plunge pools.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Striped parasols and sun loungers border the freshwater pool, shaded beneath the leafy canopy of a mature magnolia.
The gym
Glass walls enclose the garden fitness pavilion, where cardio machines and free weights look out onto the trees.
At the table
Campanella serves Neapolitan dishes along the garden loggia, and P Garden Lounge shakes cocktails behind a fish-scale tiled bar.
How it began
The Naldi family converted this early-twentieth-century private estate into a hotel in 1950, originally naming it A' Pazziella.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
