Reviews for Grand Hotel Vanvitelli

Review 1:The location is between a raised motorway and very busy road. Traffic noise and car horns very apparent. Prostitutes working openly on the road outside the hotel gates gives an indication of the locale. There are two bars, only one of which was open during the restaurant hours. Not suitable for independent travellers, much more corporate and group oriented. Treated like second class citizens over groups. Best arrive for breakfast before the groups arrive or the buffet is stripped. Walked out of restaurant on our third night as the service was appalling and dishes served incomplete.

Review 2:Beautiful building and good public areas. Bedroom excellent. Very secure parking inside hotel compound with security gates, cameras and security guards

Review 3:Snotty Receptionist playing her own music - had to be " barked at " - to remind her that the customer is always right and to be treated with respect. Other staff very good and willing to please

Review 4:Good Value - good Restaurant - impressive modern design - good breakfast

Review 5:first room - safe did not work. second room cracked exterior window and toilet seat broken

Review 6:Value for money. Very grand appearance true to Bourbon style. same designer as Royal palace

Review 7:stay one night on our way home good car parking a very comfortable room and about 5 to 10 minutes walk to some eating places . easy off the motorway

Review 8:Very noisy, right near the motor way so no where to walk too.The swimming pool had not been cleaned and the changing facilities and toilet area near the pool had not been used for a long time, very damp and smelly! Only four tattie sun loungers to be seen!!! The hotel is geared up for Business/Conferences and not the tourist. In the proximity of the hotel we observed many ladies soliciting in the area. We will not be returning!!!

Review 9:The décor in the reception and breakfast!

Review 10:Hard to get to. Door lock wouldn't open. TV did not work.bellhop had to come to our room and plug in lamps and octopus extensions. Our friends room s door lock was bent and loose. Was very dated needed refurbishing and no shower door or curtain

Review 11:Breakfast was very good very large selection. Was clean.

Review 12:rooms not clean at all. dust everywhere. run down. everything in the bathroom broke. jacuzzi didn't work…water didn't drain and it was not cleaned well. old. food service unfriendly unless you are rich. food overpriced and not special. it is old and needs upgrade. it is like pretending to be luxury.

Review 13:pool area.

Review 14:The breakfast was good, but the staff there always seemed to be involved in other duties and so neglected to regularly check up on levels for the breakfast buffet. They responded politely to requests but slow on delivery. A supervision problem I suggest!

Review 15:A grand hotel with an impressive atrium, a good restaurant and very comfortable room. Our room needs some refurbishment and so may have reflected the excellent value for money on this occasion. The hotel felt tired and needs some modernisation and refurbishment and so return it to a busy grand hotel it deserves to be. It rather reflects the film The Grand Budapest Hotel in its demise.

Review 16:The view from our Hotel room! Hotel is surrounded by condos and the Highway.

Review 17:I was a bit worried when we arrived at the Hotel since it is located close to the Highway (A3), but you don't actually hear anything! Hotel is amazing inside. Wifi is SUPER FAST. Breakfast was awesome.

Review 18:Poor choice for breakfast, WIFI works well but one need to provide personal details to sign in

Review 19:Swimming pool open 24h, amazing interiors, spacious rooms

Review 20:The swimming pool is very interesting with statues and a wonderful fountain. Pity that the fountain is not working and in need of renovation (I mean the fountain, because the swimming pool is clean and great).

Review 21:The hotel is like a palace, enormous lobby. Rooms are wide and bathrooms are very clean.

Review 22:The motorway next to the hotel produces very much noise while making use of the swimming pool or even for sleeping at night.

Review 23:The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The hotel is ideally located to visit this region of Italy (Naples, Pompei, Amalfi, ...).

Review 24:I wish that the fountains in the pool were working. That would have made the pretty grounds more beautiful.

Review 25:My friends and I stayed here because of its proximity to family and sights. Paolo, the restaurant manager, was very kind and arranged a family dinner for 22 people. My family and I enjoyed the food choices and service. I would highly recommend this hotel... It was beautiful and close to all (a car is a most) things worth seeing.

Review 26:Reality didn't live up to the promise of grandiose fountains and lighting.Also a lot further away from attractions than suggested. A bit of style over substance.

Review 27:Satisfactory location for us en route to Rome from Puglia. Food was good.

Review 28:Aircon in room was not working on the first night, spent a hot night trying to sleep, despite 2 attempts at reception to fix the problem. The next day, informed reception again of the problem before breakfast, but finally nothing was done till about 2H after we finished breakfast, so we had to wait around in the lobby. Staff were agreeable, though. meals in hotel were too expensive, but to the left of the hotel, there was a very good and resonably priced brasserie called Mister Beef.

Review 29:Hotel was decorated like a palace, spacious rooms and pool with a fountain. Breakfast was a generous spread. Excellent value for money, and easy to get to city centre of Caserta, and also to Naples.

Review 30:The pool area could be cleaner.The pool must be cleaned properly. There was white powder in the pool, when we were swimming. The room was a little worn down. Hotel was really good about 15 years ago, now tired and destroy.

Review 31:Near to Outlet. Easy access to the star attraction of Caserta by road (4Km up main street), - Caserta Palazzo Reale. Secure parking for a car.

Review 32:Arriving late - be aware you are in the red light district... Breakfast - very poor, one plate of cheese and salame for all the guests (and it's very big hotel)!!! You have to ask to bring more many times and the staff pretends not to understand. Empty bottles of juice never filled up again. While we were on breakfast the cleaners entered our room, althought we were for just one night and did not check out - and their behaviour was very strange when we came back... Not felt safe in the hotel...

Review 33:Parking, big room, comfortable beds, perhaps the pool although we did not use it

Review 34:The room was a little worn down and the bathroom really needs to be refurbished.

Review 35:The room was spacious. Breakfast buffet was good. Swimming pool was nice with comfortable sunbeds.

Review 36:Breakfast bufet- poor choice and lack of food,plates, cups. Overall restaurant overview is god but for lunch and dinner. Little bit strange way of room cleaning, they changed the towels at forst and after few hours they came back for cleaning of the rest.

Review 37:Good location, close to most of local attarctions. Good connection to A1 and A30 motorways, close to NAP airport. Good soundproof windows. Nice external pool, satisfactory wifi connection. Underground parking.

Review 38:Staff must speak english language fluently which is not case with this hotel. If you ask something and if you dont speak italian you cant understand almost nothing. All thing with the reception goes very slow. They must be very polite ( example , we didnt have pool towels in the room, at the reception told us to go back to the room to take towels and they will replace it , the nice thing is to say to the guests " enjoy the pool and in few minutes we will bring the towels " ). Location is very bad. In the middle of nowhere , and taxi to the city center is around 15 euros which is not cheap because it is not so far away but not walking distance. Hotel is very close to the highway so forget about quiet enviroment. In the rooms is quiet but by the pool and terrace you can always hear cars. The pool must be cleaned properly.

Review 39:Hotel looks nice ( interior ), the rooms are comfortable, Wifi works properly in the rooms, breakfast is good.

Review 40:In my opinion breakfasts could be better in accordance to the whole image of the hotel.

Review 41:If you are travelling from north of Italy to the south this hotel is the best choice as it is situated near the main road. Don't worry about the noise, everything is very quite. The rooms are spacious and sunny. The hotel overall looks like a palace and is suitable for weddings.

Review 42:The pool area could be little bit cleaner. The shower in the room is not working really well, you spill water everywhere.

Review 43:The food is really good and really reasonnable price. The room is big with a terrace. The pool is very nice.

Review 44:Air Conditioning Controlled by Front Desk. Took numerous calls to front desk and a personal visit to have problem resolved that the A/C did not work.

Review 45:Our room did not have functioning air conditioning. Ended up moving to another room that had A/C.

Review 46:We continue to stay at this Hotel, because we have always had good service and staff are friendly, this occasion we were even able to purchase a plant for my cousins annversary which was on a Sunday, thanks to the helpfulness of the staff.

Review 47:The breakfast staff were very slow when we asked for cappuccino and it was from a machine. I have stayed here before and have always been served fresh coffee and quickly.

Review 48:The reception staff were excellent

Review 49:poor reception staff very little English,did not seem to know about local facilities. Did not seem all that bothered,it is more a business hotel,not tourist friendly .not recommend.

Review 50:location

Review 51:The hotel is wonderful and people of the staff are even better making the staying a very pleasure experience. They assisted us for all our needs with courtesy and professionality. Thanks in particular to Antonella!

Review 52:View "in the yard" - definitely no, because no air in the room and condition didn’t work. Hotel was really good 15 years ago, now very tired and destroy.

Review 53:Near to Outlet.

Review 54:Bed was horrible pillows made us had a bad time sleeping there. Room is "royal" but faded out resulting in a sad experience

Review 55:Staff friendly and helpful, nice lobby

Review 56:Staff very rude in particularly staff where lunch was being served. I tried to have lunch there several times and i was just ignored and the bar staff were very rude talking about me in Italian when they thought i did not understand. I would not go back to this hotel or even recommend it to a friend.

Review 57:Bed was a very size and very confortable

Review 58:Location but worked for us to visit the castle

Review 59:Great value for money, big room, big bathroom, nice staff, interesting design, good breakfast for Italian standard

Review 60:Located in an industrial area. Best reached by car. Train station 4Km away

Review 61:Staff very friendly. Secure location and though near freeway rooms very quiet. Large rooms, with sitting room, lushly decorated. Inviting pool though not used because of the approaching winter. A grand entrance/foyer, so plush and luxurious, showcasing the capodimonte for which the region is known. Easy access to the star attraction of Caserta by road (4Km up main street), the Versailles like palace - Caserta Palazzo Reale, Vanvitalli’s architectural masterpiece. Unquestionably value for money. Easy access to freeway and easy to find when driving.

Review 62:The dinner restaurant staff didn't want to be there and they made you know it. No interest in serving you or being polite. Air con was hard to turn on and noisy

Review 63:The Grandeur is overwhelming! As soon as you enter the foyer you will be gobsmacked. The reception staff are super helpful and friendly. The rooms are furnished impeccably and bathroom was extra large (as was the huge bed) Breakfast had a good variety and hotel is very close to the Royal Palace of Caserta - a definite must see! Heaps of on site parking and its FREE! Wish it was warmer weather so I could swim in their massive pool.

Review 64:A bit far from the main attraction in Caserta, the Royal Palace - but that's a trifle...

Review 65:Extraordinary decoration Spacious and perfectly equipped rooms Friendly and professional service

Review 66:We loved our stay in this hotel. Our room was spacious and the staff gracious, I can't wait to go back, but I will stay longer this time!! Beautiful hotel!

Review 70:Superb Hotel, 2 different buildings, very clean, a little dated

Review 71:Decor in room a little tired. No towels for pool.

Review 72:Beautiful, classical hotel, just off the autostrade, with an air of quality. The staff are very good. The dinner and breakfast were sumptuous, and very reasonably priced.

Review 73:The city of Caserta, the castle is not well maintained. The hotel was nicer than the castle. It is an option to visit Niece, but I would have liked to have a shuttle to Napoli port available and more information on visiting Capri.

Review 74:Good value for money. Spacious and classy room. Great staff. Nice pool area. It is like you are staying in a Castle.

Review 75:Very close to the Caserta Royal Palace, and very convenient to the autostrada to go into Naples, to Amalfi, and to many other sites. The hotel was very nice, and the pool was great! Lots of free parking, which was enclosed in the fence. The breakfast was great!
