Hotel Miramare

Hotel Miramare is a four-star boutique hotel of about 18 rooms at Via Nazario Sauro 24, on the Santa Lucia seafront of Naples, Campania, Italy. It occupies a villa dating from 1914, built in the Liberty style fashionable in the early twentieth century, and looks over the Bay of Naples towards Vesuvius and Castel dell'Ovo. The waterfront promenade of Via Partenope, the Borgo Marinari harbour and the Santa Lucia restaurants are a short walk away, as are Piazza Plebiscito, the Royal Palace and the shopping of Chiaia. Public transport includes buses along the seafront and the Municipio and Chiaia areas within reach, while the ferries from Molo Beverello are a reasonable walk or short taxi ride. The small size gives the hotel a personal, intimate quality that larger properties on the seafront cannot match. Room types include double rooms, superior rooms with sea view and junior suites, with air conditioning and wifi. A rooftop terrace and bar offer views of the bay and are popular at sunset, and a breakfast room serves the morning meal. The price range of roughly €200 to €420 per night reflects its waterfront position and boutique scale, and the rating is about 4.5 out of 5. Dining nearby includes the seafood restaurants around Borgo Marinari and the pizzerias of the Santa Lucia and Chiaia districts. There is no pool or spa. Service is attentive and leisure-oriented, suited to couples and travellers wanting a quieter high-end stay, with staff able to arrange transfers and excursions to Capri, Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast. Sea-view rooms are the main attraction, and guests who want the view should specify the category when booking directly with the property, using the hotel's website or phone line.
