Moderate Hotel--Naples / sea

Can anyone recommend a hotel in Naples overlooking the Bay that is moderately priced (i.e., less than $200)? We will only be there one night.

If not overlooking the bay, what would be the 2nd best area?

Another vote for the Parteno. You might ask if the front room is available--has a big window with a view of the bay.

Hotel Jolly is on the upper floors of an office building, with wonderful views of bay and Vesuvius. Also Pinto Storey on Piazza Amadeo, nice views and good neighborhood.

Okie...when are you going to the Naples area? Just curious - I'm in Tulsa and am going w/ a friend Oct 15-26 to Italy and spending a few days in the Sorrento area.

Wow...skymcc...it's a small world! I live in Tulsa too. We are going the last week of September and the 1st week of October. I guess we'll miss you by a couple of weeks...

I have an excellent recommendation for you....no sense spending close to $200 for just one night in Napoli when you can stay at a fantastic little hotel for half the price. I stayed in Napoli for 9 days in August at hotel LE FONTANE AL MARE, Via Niccolo Tommaseo, 14 (011-39-081-764-3470). It was a referral from the "TimeOut: Naples" guidebook and is an amazing value and terrific find -- I will stay there again upon my return. It is located on the waterfront in the "Chiaia" district along the Bay of Naples. It is adjacent to the Villa Communale and within 15 minutes' walking distance to the Stazione Marittima, Piazza Municipio, etc. They have wonderful seafront rooms with balconies - my double (bathroom across hall) was only 60 euros a night, including an ample breakfast! My friends (a family of 3) stayed in their largest room/suite with bathroom and only paid 100 euros. Breakfast is included with all the rates quoted.

From the Napoli airport, a taxi ride to the hotel costs 18-20 euros. If coming from the port area (Stazione Marittima) take bus # 1 to Piazza Vittoria (next to Villa Communale) and walk the 2 short blocks to hotel.

P.S. The restaurant next door, Zi Carmela Ristorante, serves up the best margherita pizza around at only 5 euro per pizza -- not to mention delicious pasta too!
