Hotel Piccolo Sogno, Pompeii

Some of the most fascinating archaeological ruins you'll ever see are just a stone's throw away from this two-star hotel (the Hotel Piccolo Sogno) in the centre of Pompeii. When it was destroyed as Vesuvius erupted in AD79, nearly 2,000 people were killed, but the city was frozen in time, leaving us with a lasting document of life in the first century. And while you're here you can visit Vesuvius itself - regular buses will take you to the volcano. The perfect base for exploring Campania, Pompeii's Hotel Piccolo Sogno is not far from Naples, where, among other sights, you can visit the Royal Palace, the Piazza Plebiscito, the church of San Francesco da Paola and the archaeological museum: here the finest murals from Herculaneum and Pompeii are kept. The stunning islands of Capri and Ischia (in the Bay of Naples), as well as the pleasant towns of Sorrento and Positano are also well within reach and make excellent day trips.

And at the end of a busy day spent exploring this beautiful area, there's no better place to relax than in the Hotel Piccolo Sogno. Newly renovated, every room at this hotel in Pompeii has air conditioning, a shower, toilet, television and telephone. Enjoy a delicious meal in the restaurant or unwind with an ice-cold drink in the bar. Extra facilities in the hotel include car rental, free wireless internet access, fax/photocopying, parking and a 24-hour front desk manned by friendly staff who will be happy to help you get the most out of your holiday.
