Diletto a Napoli

The apartment occupies the vaulted rooms of the main floor of Palazzo Caracciolo* built in the late sixteenth century, a few steps from the decumanus major of the ancient center of Naples, via Tribunali, in a strategic position to discover the magic of Naples and the millenary culture that passes through.
The recent renovation by the architect owners has made it a B&B full of charm, with rooms characterized by the wide, ancient breath of the high vaulted ceilings painted in blue to recall the frescoed one in the atrium of the building, clearly visible from the apartment and from its ancient piperno balcony overlooking the courtyard.
The rooms offer silent rest, welcoming beds under the vaults that cover the rooms, terracotta or marble grit floors, bathrooms in light blue and blue handcrafted ceramics.
“It's sweet to feel closed in the womb of these old factories, watched over and protected by their familiar features; almost like finding ourselves in the house where we lived our childhood... refuge for bodies only, or no longer for souls?” Benedetto Croce in “Neapolitan stories and legends”
