Reviews for Herculaneum B&B

Review 1:You need a car for this place n the drive up can be through narrow streets n dingy looking areas.

Review 2:The hostess was very friendly and breakfast was nice! The views were great!!

Review 3:I liked the facilities, I had a room with an external private bathroom. The location was close to many things my fiance and I had planned. The staff was also very nice and helpful. I would highly recommend this place.

Review 4:Bit hard to find the B&B at night!!

Review 5:The staff (Lucia especially) and the facilities were faultless. The breakfast on the terrace was amazing with a brilliant spread and great views over the bay of Naples. A beautiful stay.

Review 6:Our only caution is that you must pay in cash/ no credit accepted. That information was buried in the "Good to Know" section of our booking reminder email, and I hadn't seen it.

Review 7:It's a beautiful property with a magnificent view of Naples and the harbour. The experience was like staying with relatives. Very comfortable, intimate environment with really helpful and accommodating staff and delicious breakfasts.

Review 8:the approach is not good.typical naples rubbish strewn roads and half finished properties.pity because hotel itself nicely isolated from the local area.i would still go again

Review 9:wonderful view over bay of napoli at back and great vew of the volcano at front.pleasant staff and very quiet.

Review 10:Nothing

Review 11:Fantastic hospitality and the persons running this BB is the perfect caring hosts. There is not something that these wonderful people will not try to help you with. Very nice atmosphere, good clean rooms , breakfast on a nice veranda and the breakfast has a lot of choices - TOP CLASS!!

Review 12:Location was a problem for us as we didn't have a car. Expensive taxi ride there

Review 13:The people were friendly with the woman in the morning offering to give us a lift to town as we were without a car. The owner offered to order pizza the night before as it was difficult to access a restaurant. Best dinner with the best view in town!!!

Review 14:Everything was great. Thank you :)

Review 15:The location had amazing view to the harbor and the staff was very helpful and welcoming. The breakfast was great and rich and the rooms were clean and comfortable. We got a lot of help from the owner and we really enjoyed our stay there.

Review 16:Beautiful view of the Golf of Naples during the sundown. Unforgettable. Clean and comfortable accommodation, small fridge in the room. Good breakfast!

Review 17:We stayed two nites in this B&B. it is not easy to find this place as the road which my GPS showed was under constructions. Once we found it I knew it was a good choice. We got very warm welcome,however, Italian is a preferred language. Breakfast did surprise me. Aunt of the owner baked a cake which I couldn't resist. There was a great variety of the food. We got a room with private but external bathroom which I really enjoyed. There is a huge balcony available with a beautiful view of Naples bay. B&B itself is located in a quiet area. I would def stay again.

Review 18:Car is the only transport option how to get there.

Review 19:Lucia was very helpful. Felt like home there. Nice view on Naples, Vesuvius and Capri. Breakfast was delicuous. Definitely would suggest to stay there.

Review 20:A little far up the hill to be really convenient if you don't have a cat, but no problem if you arrive by car, as most people will.

Review 21:The views, the comfy room, good breakfast choices, including fresh squeezed orange juice, and the excellent service from Lucia. Not far from Herclaneum, and easy to get the train into Naples from Ercolano

Review 22:The day we arrived one of our rooms was not available - Luca did make it up by not charging for that day. The rooms were clean, but not exceptionally so. Staff spoke no English, except for Luca.

Review 23:Luca is very obliging and helpful. Breakfast was good, but not great. The location is great for seeing the Naples area.

Review 24:It's better to add coordinates from the map to a GPS device to be sure: Naples and Ercolano are not the places easy to navigate. Maps are not accurate there as well. Look for and follow the signs "Herculaneum BB". And be not shocked of the rubbish along the roads. It's Naples :)

Review 25:Very clean, safe, friendly, cosy and pleasant place, if you travel by car to Vesuvium, Herculaneum or look for overnight. Big garden with oranges, citrons, other italian fruits and three cats :) Private parking, restaurant to have lunch and dinner in 300 meters. Good strategic position: Vesuvium is 5-6 km up, Herculaneum is 5-6 km down, combined with calm and silent location on the very end of Ercolano city. Every turn or the route is marked by sign "Herculaneum BB", not so difficult to find.

Review 26:Room was too small

Review 27:Hotel is not far from Vesuvius. There are lots of signs, which can help you find this B&B, because GPS is not really helpful. This B&B is far from the city center, so it's okay for those who travel by car. There is huge private parking. In the evening you can enjoy amazing view of Napoli from the terrace. Sister of the hotel's owner can speak Russian! So if you're not fluent in English, she can help :) Сестра владельца гостинницы отлично разговаривает на русском! :)

Review 28:Nice starting point to discover Naples, Ercolano, Pompeii and Vesuvius. Really calm and relaxing place with wonderful view to Naples and sea. Excellent cappuccino and cornetti for breakfast (also you may ask for fried or boiled eggs). Luca was very kind and gave many useful advices about places of interest, restaurants etc. Having a car makes your stay more convenient as the place is quite far from the public transport.

Review 29:thin walls - noise from neighboors, basic breakfast, but on ask is improved

Review 30:very nice, well informed and diligent staff, peace, view, terrace, location out of big city and great base for trip to Herculaneum, Vesuvio, Neapol, Pompeje and Sorrento, own parking place

Review 31:One room was not en-suite, but that was clearly stated on the booking form, so our fault for not noticing it.

Review 32:Lucca was a perfect host, friendly, helpful and spoke good English. He made us feel at home, even though we had made a mistake about the pre-paying arrangement. Perfect starting point for seeing Vesuvius and good views of the bay of Naples. Enjoyed a perfect sunset across the sea.

Review 33:The approach was a little disconcerting. Arrived through backstreets where there was a lot of rubbish about. No hot water the night we stayed. Credit card machine was apparently not working. Fortunately we had enough cash with us to pay.

Review 34:Stunning Views over Bay of Naples. Easy access to Vesuvius and Pompeii. Aircon and blackout shutters in room. Plenty of choice for breakfast. Cassa Rossa - their recommended restaurant... only a few minutes away.Don't be put off by the entrance... actually is a nice place to eat again (cash is preferred) with views of the bay. But watch out for the car parking man... he wants tipping!

Review 35:I had the room next to the breakfast room, so a little noisy when people had breakfast. The bathroom was very small and without proper ventilation, so there was a bad smell and mold was growing on the walls in the shower.

Review 36:Very nice people. Fairly sized room. WiFi was ok.

Review 37:Everything was perfect. Luca (the host of this B&B) was very helpful, the room was comfortable, and our daughter still talks about "kittens from Ercolano's hotel". This is one of the best places we had stayed in a few years!

Review 38:The room was not sound proof and right next to the lounge area so could here every conversation. The bathroom was very small. It is not that close to Herculaneum. You need a car in order to stay here.

Review 39:Could find it on the SatNav.

Review 40:The groundfloor room is quite dark and "airless".

Review 41:Maria Rosalia and Luca were nice and kind and very helpful. We haddelicious breakfasts, E.g omlettes made by Luca of the eggs and tomatospicked from Maria's garden. The view from the terrace unto the Bayof Napoli is unforgettable!

Review 42:The bathroom needed ungrading

Review 43:The view is spectacular, the people are so friendly. The breakfast was great.

Review 44:The breakfast wasn't included by booking.com offer; but it was offered to us and it was free!

Review 45:price staff view place

Review 46:without remarks

Review 47:Located in a quiet place. The room was clean and nice, good breakfast, friendly staff.

Review 48:It is a quiet place which nearby the Herculanim and the volcano. U'd better drive there. Breakfast is excellent.

Review 49:LACK of adequate heating for November visit

Review 50:Exceptional site. Good breakfast.

Review 51:staff were excellent and couldn`t do enough so we enjoyed our stay a little out of the way but we were taken into town our leisure..

Review 52:Wi-Fi a bit flaky

Review 53:The view! Kitchen and roof terrace Very friendly and helpful host Meal deal at local restaurant

Review 54:I loved the stay at Herculaneum B&B. Luca, the manager, was very friendly and recomended some good things at the amalfiecoast. And the view from the balkony is great!

Review 55:Depending on what you're looking for in a B&B, the Herculaneum B&B can definitely be booked. The only catch is, that it's not close to the city center. Don't try to walk. Take a cab. Or arrange with Luca (the B&B host) to pick you up / drop you off. The B&B is close to the Vesuv. If you have the endurance to hike up the whole mountain (takes you about 2 hours - if you're fast walkers - to reach the parking lot and another half an hour to reach the top). Also in terms of restaurants, there are limited options close by, if you want to walk. However, if arranged, Luca will bring you to an restaurant, so you do not have to walk. Moreover, if you like to walk around, be aware of the dogs. There are lots of stray dogs in Ercolano and those dogs can be dangerous.

Review 56:Very hard to find without gps; not much around for eating out, etc. -although one restaurant nearby turned out to be very good

Review 57:Clean, comfortable, nice views, helpful courteous staff, secure carparking, reasonably close to some major attractions

Review 58:A little difficult to get to from the main station without a car but we were picked up by very friendly staff.

Review 59:The staff were so friendly, helpful and genuinely nice people. Gave suggestions not only about place we were staying, but for our whole tour in Italy. Definitely the nicest people, good service and great location around! Could only recommend! Breakfast which is included is well worth it!!

Review 60:Maybe we were just unlucky in comparison with other guests who left excellent reviews. What we disliked: The room in the former garage. The window could not be opened so we felt being in a cellar without any light and fresh air. The design. It is a matter of taste but we didn't like it. Besides the room was not cosy with a lot of empty space and renovation in progress (holes instead of some sockets etc). Luca was there on the 1st day. On the second day another host was serving breakfast. He was very slow and seemed to be doing it for the 1st time. Our request for the receipt upon check-out was rejected as he didn't know how to do it and promised to send the receipt via mail which never happened. Overall we wouldn't like to stay there again.

Review 61:The host Luca was very attentive. It is very quiet there. The views over Napels and the sea is very beautiful. The bed was good.

Review 62:couldn't figure out the wifi issue

Review 63:Lucca was an excelent host and the breakfast was wonderful along with the view from the mountain to the city and sea down below. Just what we wanted in our trip!

Review 64:Wish the hotel to open its little bar - with such view we would appreciate to buy there beer or wine and to admire the life - as it is excellent!

Review 65:Very easy to find - by navigator, by marks on the way. The hotel has charming view on the Naples and has very nice rooms with large TV,large bed and good shower) Our room was in the basement and has its own enterence - and besides the place in front of the door where you can sit on the sofa and drink your wine looking on the sea. The room was very clean, the breakfast - tasty, the atmoshere - excellent. Luca - the guy on the acceuil - very helpful and open-minded - he cab advise you what to do, where to go and how to find. The restaurant near the hotel - la Rotonde - very nice. We would like to return there in summer)

Review 66:we were easily lost as we were driving on our own, however the host tried to give us some pointers to find things easier.. use some caution if you drive, the drivers around are very aggressive!!!

Review 67:The host was very graceful with our little child and immediately offered us a better room (an upgrade) for our comfort. I very much appreciated that i could use the B&B kitchen to prepare for the child anytime of the day. The setting was very comfortable with a garden for the young one to play and quite for all us to have a good sleep. Overall a very good accommodation, close to the sites yet far from the hassle of the city.

Review 68:we really liked this accomodation at Herculaneum B&B:) The representative Luca was very attentive abd helpful; he picked up us at the centre of Herkulaneum and drove us to the B&B and back many times; he prepared a nice and tasteful breakfast; adviced how to visit some sights; For those who arrived without a car- is a little bit to hard to reach the B&B from the city centre, because it is high at the Vezuvius mountain- but Luca is always at your service:)

Review 69:The Manager could not of been more helpful! The breakfast was delicious and having a beer on the patio over looking the bay of Naples in the evening is a pleasure.

Review 70:Loved it - recommend a hire car to get around.

Review 71:Excellent value for money, a real gem of a find! Location is superb for exploring Herculaneum and Vesuvius (pretty much at the start if the mountain road to the car park near the summit) Stunning views of the bay of naples. Secure, free car parking. We arrived late afternoon and were greeted by the exceptionally helpful, friendly and knowledgeable Luca. He provided so many useful tips and recommendations (especially wine tasting at Vincenzo's - a local wine producer, in the family for 5 generations!) Very clean, comfortable and well decorated rooms. Highly recommended!

Review 72:Location is away from everything else. The road up the hill is steep and narrow and the B&B can be hard to find first time if you arrive as we did with own car.

Review 73:Luka took well care of us during our stay at this nice B&B halfway up the slope of the Vesuvius volcano. Nice and well-kept rooms, breakfast buffet on the terrace with a stunning view of Naples and the Sorrento bay.

Review 74:I do prefer to be independant, but transport to and from b+b and shopswere too far, so I had to rely on hotel staff to help out!

Review 75:Being a solo, mature traveller, my stay was made exceptionally pleasantwith the help of Enza, who took me to the station and back every time Iwent out, offered all the information I needed! Even though shestruggled a bit with English...were managed perfectly! A lovely,friendly person who made me feel so at home! A huge thanks to Enza!! Theviews are stunning from the patio! Loved that!

Review 76:Arriving on the first evening was a bit scary, until we found the place,going through narrow streets of Ercolano, but when you once find theplace and have a car, it's a great place to stay.

Review 77:We spent 5 nights there, It was fabulous, the hostess and the staff werevery friendly, they made us feel as at home. They even brought us torepair an expoded tire to a service they knew. Breakfast was great,every morning a bit different, since we do not eat sweats in themorning, they offered us cheese and bacon and eggs etc... Rooms areclean, accurate, we felt secure leaving our car in the private parkingnear the b and B.

Review 78:A bit hard to find the B&B, steep uphill road; thin wall and we can hear the noise from the bathroom next to our room

Review 79:very nice view from the garden; good breakfast

Review 80:Perfect service, outstanding breakfast, good tips for getting around andwhere to eat: the recommendation of a nearby tratoria, Antica Ricupo,was top. A michelin star worth! It is not so close by the city but for alow price the host taxis you around. To recommend!!

Review 81:Great and helpful host - Luca. Nice view on Naples.

Review 82:It was difficult to find

Review 83:All was good but we heard our neighbours very well
