VILLA DURANTE

We stayed in the San Felice superior double room. It was clean and the bed was comfortable, though the bathroom is small and there is insufficient room for towels. Breakfast was plentiful and the staff were polite and friendly, but with very limited English. The villa is about 10 min walk from the Herculaneum archaeological site. If not driving, it is best to arrive by taxi as the villa is difficult to find and the route from the train station is dirty and uneven for wheeled suitcases (enter the courtyard at Corso Resina 310, turn left, take the stairs, 3rd door on the right, phone the hotel to gain entry). Unfortunately, the large polished wood staircase makes the downstairs seating area rather cramped and uncomfortable, with very little space for personal items. The staircase was also rather slippery; in fact we each fell on it when visiting the bathroom downstairs at night. My husband still has the bruises!

Theresa prepared a full fresh breakfast every morning and served it to us privately Wonderful staff

Wonderful stay, kind people. Would stay again.

Our stay was the most memorable holiday. Thank you Teresa for the amazing hospitality. Anything we needed Teresa had the answer where to find it. Her smile every morning made our day. Breakfast was amazing, the room perfect! We will definitely be returning and have already made referrals. The property has lovely shops and a restaurant across the street that was incredible. Thank you so much for your kindness and hospitality.

Good location for restaurants and visiting Herculaneum in Ercolano. Short train journey to either Naples or Pompeii and small book able tour coach leaves the train station each morning to visit Vesuvius weather permitting. Very comfortable accommodation with breakfast and fully recommend for a unique Italian experience.
