Unique design of the whole facility and our appartment. Very close acces to Herculanum, archeological site. Perfect breakfast in historical sourrandings.

We had the diffuculties with getting inside - no one picked up the phone and entry phone, the gate was close. Finally we saw we got the message from the owner, but it was sent a bit late.

extraordinary place, close to Herculaneum archeological site, and the affiliated restaurant nearby served us an amazing lunch.

nothing.

The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious. They were able to accommodate my husband's gluten free diet. Our rooms were stunning.

I wish that it was located closer to the train station, which is somewhat uphill from the hotel.

Very beautiful and gorgeous place! Super nice staff. The breakfast was great. I would love to come back.

The place is beautiful What wasn't shared is A) lots of steps to go up to main floor and no elevator B) in the room itself we had to climb another set of stairs as bed in beautiful loft area separate from bathroom Not convenient at all. The other rooms were flat..beautiful.. It is a special feel there Entrance to parking amd villa a bit run down but interior is beautiful

See above

The rooms are large and clean. The breakfast is quite good. The location is convenient. And the owner has a restaurant that has received a Michelin guide for three years in a row as well.

Queen room is the side that is next to the side street at night and early in the morning there will be noise from Motorcycle.

Absolutely fantastic period property. Feels like a palace.

Breakfast could be better.

Spaciousness, proximity to archeological site, secure, private.

Beautiful unique Italian style period property

Noise from traffic - but ear buds work so do not be deterred by this - just remember your ear buds.

it was amazing,super atmospheric,beautiful villa ,great breakfast.

The villa is a step back in time, an absolutely gorgeous place, perfectly suited to anyone visiting Pompeii or Ercolano. You enter through a courtyard and then up a flight of winding stone stairs, only to find yourself in a high-ceilinged, luxurious yet cozy house, with stunning rooms and the loveliest welcome. Even the bathrooms are photo-worthy! The breakfast was a generous spread of pastries, fruit, excellent coffee and some of the best orange juice I have ever had! Staff members were warm, welcoming and very helpful. You can walk to the Ercolano Ruins (how many times will you be able to do that in life?), and Pompeii is an easy 15 minutes away by car. We found an excellent pizzaria down the street, and the owner also welcomed us for dinner one night at the Michelin-approved restaurant Viva lo Re, right across the street from the villa, where we had one of the best meals of the trip. This was our 25th anniversary celebration and it really could not have been in a more beautiful setting! Grazie mille per tutto!

Strictly nothing. You would have to split hairs four ways to find something to say about the place.

This huge historic palace-like family Villa is being bought back to its former glory through careful renovation, in an area that once must have been very grand. Now a perfect location for visiting the ruins (and unexpected opposite a wonderful Michelin starred restaurant). Lovely staff and fantastic breakfast!

Beautiful historic stone staircase up to the Villa entrance so would be an issue for people requiring easy mobility

To stay in an old palazzo is a privilege. Thank you Terezza and Claudia for your warm hospitality and your kindness.

There were some stairs to reach the apartment. But it was normal for the old palazzo.

It was simply outstanding. An utterly beautiful place to stay and extremely convenient for visiting Herculaneum and Pompeii. The owner also has the restaurant across the street which offers fantastic food. All the staff were warm and friendly and helpful. The breakfast was terrific too.

It was faultless, but be aware that there aren’t many options for dinner nearby (though you could happily eat at the owner’s restaurant every night).

The Villa Durante is located very near the Herculaneum excavations. It is an easy walk from the B&B and you can leave your car there while you visit the scavi. The B&B is an apartment which is part of the piano nobile of an 18th century villa. The common rooms are very large and beautifully decorated with frescoes and paintings. The tiled floors are magnificent and worth the trip by themselves. We did not see any of the other rooms but our room, the Sanfelice, was ample and the bed was comfortable. Unusually for a B&B there was a fridge with a bar selection in the room from which you could choose drinks at reasonable prices. The shower was large and the water hot and there were bathrobes provided. The breakfast was good if not exciting, and served on a magnificent table which would have been suitable for a dinner party for 20. The owner and the staff were all extremely pleasant and helpful. We enjoyed our stay very much. We were sorry the restaurant was closed because if the standard matched the B&B it would have been very good indeed.

If you have any problems with knees I would ask for a different room because the Sanfelice has a staircase connecting the bathroom and bedroom levels. In fact the stairs from the courtyard to the apartment are pretty difficult to manage. The only other drawback is the very busy road which is made from a very rough material. The noise dies down to very little at night but could be annoying if you need an afternoon rest like we older folk do. Not a serious problem though.

Everything was perfect, the villa is old and beautiful.

Nothing to complain.

My wife and I spent a night here during our honeymoon and it was not nearly enough. I cannot overstate the spectacular nature of the the villa itself. Our room had 9m ceilings (yes, you read that right - 9m/27ft), REAL frescos on the walls, a green marble soaking tub… to say nothing of the incredible hospitality of the staff! Claudia and Teresa went above and beyond. We were able to check-in early, an expansive breakfast was brought directly to our room; the pair were so sweet and accommodating, I couldn’t believe it was real. That it was so affordable was simply icing on the cake. And it bears stating - this gorgeous place with these beautiful people is literally an 8 minute walk from the Herculaneum Archeological Park. If you’re visiting Ercolano, this the Villa to be at!

Lovely room with fantastic breakfast served in the room every morning

The size of the apartment, it had everything we needed, was great to have separate bedroom for the kids. Claudia and Teresa were very helpful and organised a taxi from the airport for us, a taxi to and from Pompeii and then to the train station with the same drivers.

we were visiting the Ruins of Herculaneum and this accommodation was perfect

it was all perfect

The friendliness of staff, the exceptional breakfast, the general ambience, the historic qualities of the property.

We would have appreciated (a) some English language channels on the TV (b) being able to leave our bags until we departed for the airport.

The apartment is beautiful and worth seeing. Our room had a floor to ceiling window with a view over an attractive old courtyard. The (mezzanine) bedroom had lovely antique furniture. The bathroom was small but pretty and had very nice toiletries. Breakfast was excellent. Everyone was helpful and friendly. It was all very romantic and we would love to go back. It's a short walk from the archaeological site.

We had a mezzanine bedroom and the private bathroom was downstairs which was a little bit difficult for someone with less mobility and meant having a light on all night so as to see the stairs. I think ours was probably the only room like this and in any case it would still be worth staying here as it's So lovely.

very charming setting - historical. Lovely breakfast

The classic 18th century style of the guest house with modern amenities. We had a lovely room abd our friends had an alazing two bed two bathroom suite .

The could have been more signs on the building to help us locate the guest house.

IF YOU WANT TO SPEND TIME AS A ROYALTY GO THERE .

STUPID QUESTION

it was wayyyy better than imagined

no label on outside doorbell
