American Hotel

Firstly I should start by making it clear we weren't booked in at this hotel. We were due to be at the neighbouring hotel, The Best Western, but this was closed due to 'issues with the hot water', and since this is it's 'sister hotel' the manager waited outside for our arrival and re-directed us here. The American Hotel is dated (although they seem to have renovated some of their rooms), with no pool, no tea/coffee facilities or vending machines, and worst of all, no a**osphere. The restaurant is open for breakfast (a basic range that doesn't change from day to day) and from seven pm for dinner but the food is okay at best and contains some defrosted elements, while the bar is usually closed. The place is like a ghost town, with few staff and very few other holidaymakers. The hotel's one saving grace is that they have decent free WiFi. The area in which it sits is industrial to say the least - it is one long road lined with car showrooms, workshops and engineering factories. The beach is unreachable despite claims that it is not far away, and the only places of refuge are a nightclub over the road (not open during the day, not most nights) and a 'bar' a little way down the street. The 'bar' seems okay, but is more of a cafe with food on offer, bottled beer only, and as it seems to serve the  workers of the nearby motor-related businesses it definitely doesn't scream 'holiday', and despite google saying it opens on Sundays it didn't. If you intend to break out from here be warned - the hotel doesn't organise or advertise excursions, and due to a strange cultural quirk, tickets for the local buses can only be purchased immediately before you travel from a 'tabbacheria', none of which are within reasonable walking distance of the hotel. Your options are limited to long-distance walking (assuming you have studied the route) or taxis to the nearest metro (which don't come cheap - we paid 18 euros for a 5 minute journey). If you wish to travel through to Naples expect to pay in the region of 60 euros each way. The 502 bus schedule is okay on weekdays and sketchy at weekends, and the bus stop is directly outside the Best Western Hotel but you'll still have the issue of how to purchase your ticket in the first place. Overall, a stressful experience!

If your r looking for a mosquito filled room w no real working a/c. This place is for u Food wasn’t great. Veal tasted off. the place gets very loud w all the sound from the hall ways. Not a great location but we knew that going in. I would absolutely not recommend this place

Okay hotel with flaws, very far from the city! However if you take this hotel you need a car or a scooter (rent). Food is ok, staff is ok, not the best. Tips: Don't let the staff order taxi for you they call a friend and he over charge you! Almost the triple of a normal price. It should cost around 30 euro to city. They tried to charge us almost 120. Called the staff and asked what is this he said not my problem. Name is Dario stay away from him, very cheeky. Name of the driver is Antonio! If I ever go back to Napoli i would never stay at this hotel due to the location and due to the one staff member order us that taxi.

Hot water kettle not provide, no tea arrangement in room. No place to get hot water to drink. Water tumblers being provided was environmentally unfriendly plastic disposable . The management in very unfriendly an uncooperative. In whole s very bad experience.

We were heavily bitten by insects even using repellent. Room 220.

It was great. Staff was friendly and helpful. Rooms large and clean. There's a tennis complex 500m from hotel. Nice place.

I like this hotel, everything good. Only so far from metro.

Se desiderate riposarvi in modo comodo e pulito dopo un lungo viaggio o una lunga giornata passata a visitare NON venite in questo hotel . Partiamo dal presupposto che ogni camera ha un pessimo odore paragonabile alla puzza di un uovo sodo andato male . In secondo luogo abbiamo la presenza di acari e peli nel bagno , in questo hotel non esiste l’acqua calda in doccia . Vi consigliamo di portarvi gli asciugamani se non volete ritrovarvi macchie ambigue sul corpo a causa della mancata pulizia di essi . Colazione sufficiente e sottomarca . Concludo dicendo che per il prezzo pagato è stato un pessimo giorno, da NON rifare MAI più!!!
