Frommer's Review

This 18th-century baroque palace near the marina is said to have been built for Gioacchino Murat, Napoleon's brother-in-law and later king of Naples. The five more expensive guest rooms in the historical part of the palace are decorated with antiques and original furnishings; the ones in the new wings are also very nicely appointed. All units have good-size bathrooms, and most rooms have ocean views. The rich buffet breakfast is served in the delightful garden court when weather permits; in August and September this is the site of chamber music concerts. The hotel's restaurant Al Palazzo offers alfresco dining.

Restaurant; babysitting; concierge; garden; laundry service; lounge; room service

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
