Help. Advice needed on cheap(ish) hotels in Naples
Need advice on accommodation and I am in a bit of a hurry to find somewhere
to stay. I've looked at 1*, 2*, and even 3* hotels in the centre of Naples but I have heard that some hotels and/or areas of the city are very seedy and "dangerous". Could someone advise which hotels and areas of the city I should avoid. Also, if anyone could offer some recommendations of good hotels I would be most grateful. I will be staying for four nights at the end of this month (Oct) and wish to vist Pompei. I am on a very strict budget for accommodation and I did not realise how expensive staying in Naples can be, hence looking at the lower end of the market up to around 60 Euros pn. Regards MC |

Regards MC If your purpose is to visit Pompeii, consider staying in Sorrento, rather than Naples. In fact, you could even do a daytrip to Pompeii from Rome if you catch an early train. |

My main reason was to visit Pompeii, however I will have a further 2 days to kill. I already have a BA flight into Naples and this does not arrive till 22:20 so it will be rather late to get anywhere other than Naples and I will not be hiring a car. MC |

You'll want to avoid the Centrale Train Station/Piazza Garibaldi area if you don't want seedy. It's the area I've stayed in on 4 trips so I can't help with hotel recommendations in better areas. Try posting and searching (naples AND hotel) on the Fodor's Forum/Travel Talk www.fodors.com/forums/ Also try www.tripadvisor.com and www.venere.com I haven't used 'venere' in a while but you can usually bring-up maps showing the hotels in certain locations and customer reviews. I emailed you some info (mosly directions) to the sites (Pompeii, Herculaneum, etc), the title will be POMPEII-NAPLES so you don't can it as spam.
