Bellevue Syrene Review

In the late 19th century, Empress Eugénie of France came for a week and stayed three months—you'll understand why if you choose this retreat, magnificently set on a bluff high over the Bay of Naples. One of Italy's legendary hotels, it was once a gentle fantasia of Venetian chandeliers, Louis-Phillipe rugs, and Belle Epoque murals (painted in the 1860s to make the King of Bavaria feel more at home). A recent renovation, however, transformed it into something right out of sizzling South Beach. Hip and modern chandeliers, avant-garde artworks, trompe l'oeil frescoes and plate-glass coffee tables now adorn ducal salons. The main restaurant, Mimmo Iodice, has panoramic vistas over the bay and a truly tempting menu, or you can enjoy elegant meals under the cliff-top wisteria pergola.

    Simply one of the most beautiful places in the world

    This hotel is magical. My husband and I stayed here for two nights on our honeymoon, and one of my favorite memories is the moment when our driver pulled up to the Bellevue Syrene. Photos really can't do it justice. Our room was somewhat small, but clean and very comfortable. The best part was our private balcony, overlooking the sea and Mt. Vesuvius in the background. The location is convenient, and you can walk to all of the downtown restaurants. Even now, looking at our vacation photos from the Bellevue Syrene put me in an instantly good mood -- it is that wonderful of a place!

    The Best!

    My husband and I stayed here for 3 days in July. A truly lovely hotel. The staff are very friendly and professional. The views are incredible. I think there is a wedding at the hotel every night, so we enjoyed listening to the music from them as we sat out on our balcony. I highly recommend this hotel!
