The Grande Archivio

Overlooking a bustling piazza right in the heart of Naple’s Centro Storico (that’s historical centre to us), this bolthole is as central as it gets. Take your pick from the must-see sights, including the Duomo and the lengthy Spaccanapoli – it’s all within walking distance. Need to travel across the city fast? The Metro is just four minutes from your door. A great option for two friends or a small family sharing, there's an open-plan living area with a sofa bed set-up alongside the main bedroom. Set in a historic building, while few period features remain, the Juliet balcony is a nice touch to watch the piazza bustle below.

Home truths:
*It’s worth noting, at full occupancy the last two guests will be sharing a sofa bed in the living area.
*The apartment's partially open staircase may not be suitable for guests with restricted mobility.
*Compared to the home’s immaculate interiors, the communal hallways of this historic building feel a little tired. The apartment is on the third floor without a lift, so be prepared to climb some stairs.
*Hanging wardrobe space is slightly limited at this home, so we recommend packing light.
*The bedroom and living area are divided off with curtains rather than doors, so there's not much privacy.
*If you're travelling for work, you won't find a dedicated desk here. However, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.
*Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
*Some of the artwork might not be to everyone’s taste.
