Point de visite intéressant mais dommage que la qualité ne soit pas au rendez- vous pour l’ensemble des prestations .
Pros:

La vue est spectaculaire . La
Piscine très agréable et le
Personnel adorable

Cons:

Le petit déjeuner est franchement mauvais . C’est indigne d’un tel établissement . Peu de choses mais simples et bonnes seraient une base suffisante .

Très déçue
Pros:

L’emplacement était peut être la meilleure chose

Cons:

Hôtel très mal tenu, chambre sale, « vue Vésuve » inexistante, avec la vue sur une antenne téléphonique ou une grue collée à la fenêtre, fruits impropres au petit déjeuner, salle de bain sale également, piscine crasseuse, très très cher pour la qualité de l’hôtel (j’avais réservé une suite junior)

Prachtig en relax!
Pros:

Prachtig panorama terras en zwembad. Gehele stijl van het hotel is fantastisch. Net zoals het personeel.

Cons:

Het bed was wat aan de kleine kant en hard. Al maakte de rest van de kamer het meer dan goed.

Überhöhte Zusatzpreise, unfreundliches Personal
Pros:

Die Lage mit Blick über Napoli ist traumhaft, auch von der Restaurantterrasse, das alte Kloster als Hotel ist toll gemacht, es gibt viel zu entdecken

Cons:

Das Personal auf der Dachterrasse war unprofessionell. Man hatte den Eindruck, dass das Personal sehr selektiv bedient hat und italienische Gäste bevorzugt hat. Die Parkgebühr ist mit 40 € angegeben, wir haben 70€ bezahlt. Für unseren kleinen Hund haben wir 50 € pro Nacht bezahlt, ohne Extraleistung

Geweldige locatie en prachtig gebouw, al de rest viel tegen.
Pros:

Locatie en gebouw waren prachtig.

Cons:

Het ontbijt was een zware teleurstelling. De melk was zuur, de yoghurt was warm, het brood en de croissants waren van de dag ervoor. Het fruit kwam uit blik en er was geen kaas of degelijk beleg. De Italianen zijn geen grote ontbijters maar voor deze prijs hadden we toch een minimum verwacht.
Verder was de bediening en het personeel ook niet van harte.

Hieno hotelli joka valikoitui loman viimeiseksi paikaksi näkymien ja historian vuoksi ja se kannatti
Pros:

Upeat näkymät Napolin ylle ja hotellin historia mielenkiintoinen.
Sijainti ei ole ytimessä mutta helpon kävelyn päässä espanjalaisista kortteleista(paljon portaita,en suosittele polviongelmaiselle).

Cons:

Aamupalalta odottaisin enemmän tämän tasoisessa hotellissa.
Näkymät toki upeat aamupalaterassilta.
