Decumani Hotel de Charme

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 – A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Naples We recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming hotel nestled right in the vibrant heart of Naples, and it truly exceeded all expectations. The location couldn’t be more perfect — just steps away from bustling piazzas, authentic trattorias, and some of the city’s most iconic historical sites. The hotel itself blends classic Neapolitan charm with modern comforts. The rooms are tastefully decorated, spotlessly clean, and offer lovely views of the surrounding rooftops and narrow cobblestone streets. I especially loved the little balcony — perfect for morning coffee as the city wakes up. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, offering personalized tips and always ready to help with a smile. Breakfast was a delightful spread of fresh pastries, fruit, and rich Italian coffee, served either in a cozy lounge or on a sunlit terrace. If you’re looking for an authentic and relaxing base to explore Naples, this hotel is a perfect choice. I’ll absolutely be returning on my next visit to the city!

We stayed here for two nights after a walking holiday in Cilento. The location of the hotel was superb, being close to restaurants and the vibrant old town. We had the smallest category of room which was comfortable with a good bathroom and surprisingly quiet for a city centre room. The staff were hard-working, helpful and friendly. We were impressed with Federica, Carlo and Giovanna who organised breakfast service so efficiently. Federica was also on reception when we checked out and arranged a taxi for our return to the airport. Thank you all.

We had a 100% excellent experience at the Decumani; from arrival to departure five days later, we were treated superbly throughout. The staff are really professional, respectful and attentive (but not over-attentive), efficient and friendly. The exterior of the building, in a typical Napoli cobbled side street very close to the Corse Umberto, one of the city's main shopping streets, bears graffiti, as does seemingly every other building in the city centre, but things are very different inside where, in typical Neapolitan fashion, you're welcomed into an ambience of luxury and stylish decor. The room we had, on the second floor, wasn't massive, but it had a wonderful high ceiling, a balcony which could be left enclosed or open, a luxurious en suite and the most massive "emperor-size" bed, which was really comfortable to sleep on. Further exploration revealed what had once been a huge ballroom, now used as the breakfast room - and bar during the day - with the most incredible decorated ceiling. There's also a peaceful terrace with loungers and sofas which looks out over the courtyard - all hidden away from the street. Everything was very clean, in our room and all the puAll in all, we cannot recommend the Decumani highly enough - superb!

Great hotel. Beautiful breakfast room. In a nice safe location for walking and sightseeing. It is just wonderful. The rooms are a nice size but sparse. There are alot of spaces to sit and enjoy the hotel. All of the staff are great and helpful.

A very charming and beautiful hotel! The staff was friendly and helpful and breakfast was served in an exceptional room. It was in a great location as well. I would highly recommend it! It has a wonderful area outside of the bar upstairs where one can take one’s drinks and enjoy the view. The red wine was delicious and very reasonable.

Absolutely lovely hotel and don't let the looks of the neighbourhood scare you. That's just normal, old city Napoli. Great location for exploring the old city and nearby neighbourhoods.||The breakfast is also wonderful. Nice selection from light fare to full American style breakfast. I appreciated them having a pot of American style coffee as well as the ability to make more interesting coffee drinks.

Apart from the beautifully ornate breakfast room the hotel is very average. Even the very helpful and friendly staff can’t make up for this.A collection of rooms in a large nondescript building but in a very convenient location for exploring Naples. The hotel rooms are on the first and second floors. The ground floor and higher floors are private apartments .|I concur with other reviews that the walls are thin on some rooms and very noisy. We had to move after the first night because of this. The room furniture may be antique in age but not attractive or valuable. There are no tea or coffee making facilities in the rooms. Water must be purchased from the mini bar. Lighting is poor and all windows are overlooked by very close neighbours.|On our third night there was a party in the hotel which kept most residents awake into the early hours.|It is not a four star hotel. Many Premier Inns in the UK have better rooms and facilities.

This hotel is a diamond! Centrally located in the heart of the historical district of Naples, it offers all the charm of a boutique hotel and the services available in a larger hotel. Reception is your first point of contact in any hotel. Thanks to Federica, Carlo, Francesco & Massimo, all our questions were answered and we saw them do the same for every guest and in multiple languages. Breakfast featured a wide variety of fresh, delicious local foods overseen by an attentive, experienced staff (a special shout out to Carlo, Mariano & Giovanna for their attention to all our needs). The next time we are in Naples, we will head directly to the Decumani Hotel de Charme where I know that we will be honored guests again!
