If you are looking for a unique and authentic experience of history, arts, culture and literature, here is where you want to be. It’s like to live in living museum with all the latest comforts of the XXI Century.
The apartment, just renovated and restored underlining an ancient and modern contrast, showcases an authentic 19th Century fresco on the vaulted ceilings and displays significant paintings by a distinguished 20th Century Neapolitan painter.
THE SPACE
This historical apartment, still fully furnished with the family's ancient furniture, is located in the the historic center, in the most ancient area of the town - Vergini district - and is part of a 16th century palace, still belonging to the same princely family who built it.
In the 18th Century, this historical palace was the residence of the Great Saint Alfonso de Liguori (August 1st on the calendar), Doctor of the Church and Founder of the Congregation of the Very Holy Redemptor, and in that palace he started his apostolate.
This stunning and just renovated apartment (110 sqm - 1,200 sf) with high vaulted and frescoed ceilings is composed by one double-bedroom (queen-size bed), a huge living room with a comfortable sofa-bed (queen-size bed) and a round dining table for six, a fully furnished kitchen, a full size bathroom (shower), a harmonious terrace with patio, independent garden (200 sqm) where a centuries-old magnolia tree stands, and private entrance/foyer.
The apartment also benefits from private access to the ancient courtyard/garden of the family’s historical palace (200 sqm - 2,300 sf), where a centuries-old magnolia tree stands (It is said that it was planted when the palace was built 500 years ago); which also consists of a dining area, a sunbathing area with deck chairs.
In the 18th Century, this specific apartment was the house of Saint Gerardo Maiella, disciple of the above mentioned Saint Alfonso Maria de Liguori, and more recently of the famous Neapolitan painter, Massimo, d'Orta, (former director of the Secret Cabinet of the National Archaeological Museum), whose paintings decorate the apartment.
GUEST ACCESS
The entire apartment, terrace, patio and garden is at your exclusive disposal (no sharing).

The Palace is in an area very well linked to everywhere (2 subways, 5 bus-lines and taxi rank) and offers many touristic attractions (Greek Hipogea of 4th century B.C.; Sacrarium of Fontanelle; Saint Gaudioso and Saint Gennaro's Catacombs; and many aristocratic palaces and important churches).
GETTING AROUND
In five minutes walk, you can reach Naples' Cathedral, with the priceless Saint Gennaro's treasure; and the National Museum of Archeology, with the finest pieces of Pompei and the wonderful Farnese's Collection.
YOUR AVAILABILITY
After your booking you will always be in contact with me, Francesco, via phone or email; while my mother, donna ‘Princess’ Paola, will welcome you and check you in upon your arrival.
She will also give you tips of what’s best to do and sightseeing around the city: our friends and guests are very enthusiast about it (please read reviews).
By appointment only, it's possible to visit the Prince's apartment, composed by several reception rooms, a huge ballroom with 18th century frescoes on the ceiling and a splendid 18th century chandelier, a very important library with 16th - 17th - 18th century books, in which rooms the princely family regularly organizes cultural events as concerts, theater exhibitions and debates.
On these occasions, and especially by night, some ghosts belonging to the family have appeared and seemed to enjoy very much to be in company… :-)
