Hotel San Francesco al Monte, Naples
Once a 16th-century monastery, this edifice has now been converted into an elegant, comfortable four-star hotel ... an establishment with stunning, panoramic views. The Hotel San Francesco al Monte offers all the modern amenities you would expect yet manages to retain many of the building's unique features and romantic atmosphere. There is the oven the monks used to use to make their bread, and fragments of ancient frescoes. A nearby funicular connects the hotel to the historic centre (centro storico) of the city.
Perfect for both holidaymakers and business travellers, the hotel has 44 classically furnished rooms, each with views over the city and the Gulf of Naples. All rooms boast their own bath or Jacuzzi, and are equipped with a full range of modern amenities.

Other facilities at the Hotel San Francesco al Monte include a lovely rooftop swimming pool set among rocks and greenery, a terrace featuring a beautiful hanging garden, and an important collection of contemporary art.
