With sweeping views across the Bay of Naples toward Mount Vesuvius and the islands of Ischia and Procida beyond, the hotel鈥檚 main highlight is the view from its magnificent stone terrace.
The Excelsior Vittoria has direct access on to the main Piazza Tasso as well as a private elevator down to the port. The grounds of this historic hotel stretch across five acres and are composed of three old buildings. There is a beautiful music room, conservatory or winter garden and many intimate, little living rooms.
OUR OPINION:
The Grand Hotel Excelsior Vittoria is every bit as historic and luxurious as it proclaims to be, with an unrivalled central location and a grandeur that isn鈥檛 overbearing.

Rooms
The rooms and suites have a history of significant visitors, playing host to the likes of Oscar Wilde and Richard Wagner. They maintain their 1930s style with elegant, frescoed high ceilings, antique furniture, chandeliers and wooden parquet floors. The bathrooms are equally grand with spacious walk-in showers or large bathtubs. Both adjoining and interconnecting rooms are available, making this a great choice for families. From the junior suite category and above, the minibar is complimentary. For those who prefer modern, contemporary rooms, but with the same antique furniture, these are available on request.
