Naples Travel Forum

I used to live in Capodichino (military) and plan to return in March. I plan to take a cab from Rome and stay in a small town ouside of Naples for a few days. I forget the names other than peinetamare. Help on the small town names near pozullio. Later I plan to go to Ischia and I forget the name of the hotel which had 2 pools side by side (thermak and jump a wall to the clorine pool). I've spent hours online looking for it. It also had a pool side bar outside. What is the temp expected in March?
Thanks

try venere.com, you can browse by neighborhood/area for lodgings. You may be able to find your Ischia hotel there.

Where so you actually want to go while in the area? That may influence your hotel choice. In the area of Pozoulli, there is Bagnoli, Agnano, Fourigrotta, Soccavo, and Pianura (where I used to live) and many more. In that area, I would stay away from the San Germano Hotel and the American Hotel. The Hotel Nesis gets fairly good reviews and the Domitiana Hotel on Viale Kennedy didn't used to be too bad. In Pozzoulli by the Tangenziale exit is Compleso Turistico Averno. They have bungalows and hotel. In March, you probaby aren't going to need a swimming pool. They have a really good restaurant.

Why are you taking a cab from Rome? Isn't that around €300? You can take the EuroStar or equivalent for around €30 and it takes 1.5 hours. If you don't want to go to Garibaldi, some trains go to Mergellina and some to Campi Felegri.

We are going on March, but we are driving from Rome because there are a lot of places we want to go that are difficult by public transportation. A hotel out of the city center may not have great transportation links, depending on your plans.

Get a good map of the area, or use viamichelin.com to find way between things.
Buona fortuna,

Thanks for the info. I meant to say I was renting a car in Rome and driving to Naples or take a train. But, I must rent the car in Rome becuase our arrival time will be late and the rental places in Naples might be closed. I found a hotel in Castel Volturno (Holiday Inn). Thanks for all of your info.
