The apartment is housed in vaulted rooms in the Caracciolo building * built in the late sixteenth century, a few steps from the major decumanus of the old centre of Naples, via Tribunali, It is in a strategic position that combines the old magic of Naples and the millennial culture that the passes through today. The recent renovation by the owners who are architects has made it a b&b full of charm, with rooms characterized by the wide and high vaulted ceilings painted blue with the fresco of the atrium of the building in mind, clearly visible from the apartment and from its ancient balcony in piperno overlooking the court. The rooms offer a space for quiet rest with cozy beds under the vaulted ceilings, terracotta or marble floors, bathrooms in blue and azure ceramics. “It is sweet to feel locked up in the womb of these old factories, guarded and protected by their familiar appearance; almost like finding ourselves in the house where we lived our childhood … shelter to bodies only, or no longer even to souls? “Benedetto Croce in ”Neapolitan stories and legends”
