Grand Hotel Vesuvio

A luxury hotel dating back to 1882

The Grand Hotel Vesuvio is the only 5-star luxury hotel on the Naples sea-front. The accommodation consists of 160 rooms, with 45 deluxe sea-view rooms, 50 superior city view rooms, 44 standard rooms, 17 suites, 3 Top Class suites, and one Presidential Suite.
The hotel has a long history. In the late 19th century, amidst a flurry of new building in the city, a Belgian financier named Oscar du Mesnil, who was in Naples with his wife, was so fascinated by the city that he decided to construct a hotel on the new sea-front to do justice to the beauty of the site. "Grand Hotel du Vesuve" was duly built in 1882. The new hotel was the height of luxury and elegance and immediately became an important stop for international tourists arriving in Naples.

Two years after its inauguration, the hotel hosted Queen Victoria of Sweden and her personal doctor, Axel Munthe, already a writer of some repute. In 1885 Guy de Maupassant stayed at the hotel.

The hotel has an extensive range of facilities available to guests, including a Business Centre, a cabin cruiser (the Vesuvietta) with skipper that can be used for quick and enjoyable trips to the islands and other locations on the coast, a chauffeur-driven limousine service, rooms for disabled guests, panoramic banqueting rooms, garage, internet wi-fi, laundry and dry cleaning, solarium and more.
The Bar on the ground floor, open every day from 9 a.m. to 1 a.m., offers light lunches and dinners, and traditional Neapolitan pastries and snacks.
The Business Centre comprises a distinctive multimedia hall, with computers, printers, fax and other high-tech equipment.
