VILLA CAPODIMONTE ^{* * * *}

Clean pretty nice rooms. Kind of like rooms in general, but the bath room is fairly 80s style. Moderately fancy but a bit worn. Adjustable air conditioner.

Pretty cool roof terrace where you can bring drinks and enjoy the view.

Location is pretty cool on top of a mountain; that has some upsides and downsides. Pretty quiet, except for the occasional air plane from the near by airport. Great view over the central city with Vesuvius in the background. For being so close to the center, it's fairly remote. Can be hard to get a taxi from the hotel at times and also find a taxi willing to go to the hotel.

Arrived on a Saturday, and saw a tour of Pompeii and Vesuvius that we wanted to go on. They couldn't get us that tour.
Told them we wanted to go after we had dinner Saturday, so too late to book for Saturday, so Monday it is. Checked in how it was going with the tour after dinner on Saturday and only got a "they have not gotten back to us". Monday morning still had no response on we asked how about tomorrow (Tuesday)? After dinner and still no response.
I assumed that they could make the tours they have in the reception happen but they failed with that.
We managed to get a tour of Pompeii online ourselves, but missed out on Vesuvius.
On top of that experience, we couldn't get a taxi to the Centrale for the train to Pompeii for our tour.
Also they don't have power plug conversion to the common European plugs for laptop.

Other than that, the staff was friendly and seemingly tried their best to give good service.
