Travelling to Naples

Getting There

Naples is well connected internationally. You can easily reach the city via Naples International Airport (NAP), which is about 20–30 minutes from the city center by taxi. Naples is also accessible by high-speed train from Rome, Florence, and other major Italian cities (arrival station Napoli Centrale).

Where to Stay

There are many wonderful accommodation options in Naples to suit different preferences and budgets, from elegant hotels to charming boutique B&Bs and apartments.

We recommend staying in central areas such as:

  • Chiaia – Chic residential neighborhood by the seaside. Ideal if you are looking for a  place to stay with fewer crowds and a great view of the gulf.

  • Centro Storico – A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1995, this area combines history and tradition. Recommended for lovers of history, culture, and street food!

  • Quartieri Spagnoli – A lively and young neighborhood in central Naples. Ideal if you are looking for a buzzy restaurant scene, bars and the city’s most authentic vibes.

For your own safety avoid booking facilities based in the following areas: Scampia, Secondigliano, Piazza Garibaldi (near the Central Station), Forcella and Rione Sanità.
