Eurostars Excelsior

Excellent breakfast in the morning on the rooftop.

The roof top bar area does not have adequate seating and it is over-priced. Go around the corner and you will pay €7 less for a gin and tonic and €4 less for a beer. It's a nice area, just needs more seating, which is also not that comfortable. Getting a taxi coordinated through the hotel was challenging. They would call right away, but the dispatchers would always send a cab from far away instead of the cabs just around the corner. Walk to the taxi area next to the hotel, but ensure you find out from concierge how much you should pay. ALL taxi cab drivers we encountered were corrupt! They try to up-charge for various reasons, never run the meter, claim they don't have change or try to over charge you from the beginning. The subway is cheap and clean, so take that if you have the time. The location is nice for a view, but it is not convenient for subway access, getting to the Napoli Central station or the ferries. Lots of walking. Not a lot of great restaurants nearby. The room was very clean, except I discovered an army of ants one morning. Hotel staff was polite and courteous and the wait staff was excellent.
