Francesco was excellent and gave me all the help and information I needed. The restaurants he recommended were really tasty. The neighborhood is quintessential Napoli, noisy, busy, exciting. My favorite thing was I was only a 5 minute walk to the great Archeological Museum. Hint: get the year pass. It cost only 5 more than a day ticket and you can go and really see it. I went 6 times.

The apartment is spacious and tastefully decorated. The AC heated the space surprisingly well! There are enough dishes in the kitchen, but most of the pots did not work on the induction stove. The host is friendly, helpful and well organized. The Sanita neighborhood is lively and amazing.

It really is a palace

Yes, Paula is a real princess who shares this palace with you. You are in the heart of old Napoli with everything nearby. We loved our stay and will be coming back

Probably one of the most interesting places I have stayed in as it is part of an older building. It is furnished with antiques from their family. The shower and air conditioner were good. There was a small kitchenette with a refrigerator. The location was within walking distance to two metro stops. Furthermore, the communication was excellent.

4 night stay in a 16th century palace

We had an amazing time at Paola’s. The photographs of the apartment do not do it justice. Paola was wonderful and the location is fantastic for lots of historical locations. Napoli is not for the faint hearted but we absolutely loved it. All human life is here and generally all at the same time. Can’t wait to return

Living under a beautiful fresko

We had some wonderful days in an awesome, very spacious appartment equipped with antic furniture and original paintings. The AC is not rearly nessecary due to the thick walls, that keep outside the summer heat and the noise from the lively street. The appartment is located in an old palace, paerts of which can be visited. The owner, Princess Paola and her son Francesco are extremly nice, lovely and helpful persons.If one day we will come back to Naples, we would always would try to stay again in this appartment.

We stayed here for six nights and cannot recommend it enough. It’s a wonderful place in a fascinating and vibrant part of Naples. We were very comfortable each night, and we loved the proximity to both the L1 and L2 stations. The pizza place below the apartment is excellent, as is the little restaurant just across the alleyway. If you need anything, there’s an outdoor market within walking distance with tons of shops. The highlight for us was being able to sit on the balcony with a coffee or a snack and just watch the bustle of Rione Sanità below us. It’s wonderful to have a little oasis of peace like that in a busy city. Francisco is a great host, and it’s clear this is a well cared for home with tons of history and love. Next time we come to Naples we would love to stay here. Don’t hesitate; just book :)

We loved the location and the physical environment. Easy and close fun restaurants especially a super good and friendly pizza spot attached to our building. Our host was unprepared for our visit and unfortunate taxi strike. The directions could have been specific.No hot water and no tea kettle. Lack of hot water very annoying. No clear directions for washer…simple to number directions. He was supposed to show us the rest of the palace but never contacted us. Just too busy, I guess.

Have you ever imagined what it would be like to step back in history? Imagine staying in a 500 year old palace belonging to Italian Royalty that can trace their family tree back to Aristocrats from over 1000 years ago! We had the opportunity to stay in the family library of Princess Paola’s ancestral home. We literally slept under beautiful ceiling frescos painted hundreds of years ago.The apartment was incredibly spacious, with modern amenities, kitchen appliances and more. The kitchen was very well stocked should you choose to cook a couple of meals. Centrally located in Naples’ historic district, 10 minutes to the Metro Line 1 or 2 (Naples Urban core), we enjoyed staying at this VRBO. We were greeted by Francesco, who took the time to explain the neighbourhood amenities and shops and we were touched by the itinerary specifically made for us by Princess Paola to ensure we could see the highlights of Naples in the time we had. Of course, this is a 500 year old building and there are always Pros and Cons with any stay, but be rest assured, Francesco was exceptionally responsive warranting the reviews he has received. A great stay.

Unique and Beautiful

This is a truly amazing place, richly decorated and comfortable, with a well-stocked kitchen, sumptuous furniture, and stellar artwork. While some might find the neighborhood a little rough, it was teeming with down to earth Neapolitan life, and we felt safe there. It's also 10 minutes' walk to the Archaeological museum, metro station and buses. As a bonus, the property is directly next to what may well be the world's greatest pizza restaurant, one that has earned a Michelin star year after year, and was written up in the New York Times, yet is modestly priced for take-away meals. (You can eat in, also.) Moreover, Paola, the host, is a kind and charming person who provided us with lists of places to see in Naples. (She speaks Italian, English, and French quite well, and, she says, German not so well.) She is fully appreciative of Naples and its history, someone who added greatly to our enjoyment of staying in her place. We'd definitely go back.

We enjoyed our stay very much. This is a unique property. Our apartment was huge: a foyer, bedroom and a huge room with a bathroom and kitchen (this room has the frescoes on the ceiling). There is also a patio and yard. There was plenty of hot water and no issues with the air conditioning (hit the ‘cool’ button on the remote). Access is via a separate entrance and there’s a flight of stairs. The host invited us to see other areas of the palace which are stunning. The area is lively - lots of pedestrians.

Appartamento suggestivo e con grandi spazi. Letto comodo e bagno funzionale. Un po’ difficile fare il caffè con moka a induzione.Posizione centralissima e molto comoda per girare a piedi il centro storico.Un po’ rumoroso la sera. Ma in complesso bella esperienza!

Tief eintauchen in das Leben in Neapel

Faszinierende Möglichkeit sehr zentral - Fußläufig zu Altstadt, Metro, am Rande des Viertels Sanita das "echte" Neapel kennenzulernen. Lebendiges Viertel, aber der Palast bietet Oase der Ruhe und wunderbare Atmosphäre. Sehr freundlicher Empfang und Hilfe durch Paola, die zum Kennenlernen "Ihres" Neapel gerne wunderbare Tipps gibt. Danke für einmalige Eindrücke!
