Cheap and good hotels near the Consulate? |
I was at B&B Napul'è (300m from the embassy). very nice and clean. it has only 3 rooms so if you want to book here do it as soon as you receive your appointment. the lady will book you a taxi or take you to the Istituto Varelli if you need.
OTHERS SAID:
Not cheap but nice, wonderful view, quiet place next to the Consulate, almost 5 minutes by taxi Hotel Paradiso single room 115 Euro per night.
"B&B Caracciolo10" (www.caracciolo10.it) very nice, friendly and clean bed and breakfast place, it's only 2 mins walking to the Consulate and 5 mins walking to Mergellina train station. Euro 100 a night including the breakfast.
B&B Area Mare (www.areamare.org), small and nice bed and breakfast. It's situated in Via Gramsci which is in front of P.zza della Repubblica where is the consulate. By foot it's less than 10 minutes to the consulate. Also for who is coming by train, the B&B is very close to Mergellina Railway Station. The price is around 90 euros a double per night with breakfast included.
Napoli Central City B&B Corso Vittorio Emanuele,737 Tel: 081 19577840. Located a brief walk from the embassy and a half-block frm the Mergellina Railway Station. Beautiful double room with bath and breakfast for 70 euros.
