Where to sleep in Herculaneum to visit the excavations?
The interest in Herculaneum in recent years, has grown exponentially and more and more tourists decide to seek accommodation in the small town overlooking the sea and close to the slopes of Vesuvius, to visit all the beauty that this land offers. First and foremost, the famous and second most visited Archaeological site in Campania, but not only that, also the wonderful 18th-century Villas and the spectacular MAV.
Herculaneum, though small, welcomes so many beauties all to be admired and known. Moreover, its location close to Vesuvius, Pompeii and Naples allows tourists to move easily between destinations.
A not insignificant element. The distance between one site and another is crucial when one wants to visit several places at once.
But it is not easy to choose the right accommodation, especially, for those who do not know those places. So where to sleep in Herculaneum to visit the excavations?
In my guide I have selected only the best accommodations not only in terms of location, but also in terms of hospitality, special features and prices.
You can choose between a simple B&B or live a unique experience, staying in one of the wonderful 18th-century villas of the Golden Mile.
The best accommodations where to sleep in Herculaneum to visit the excavations
Few times in one’s life can happen to be able to stay in a spectacular Villa built in the eighteenth century, by the best architects of the time, close to the world’s best known and most visited ruins.
So why miss this opportunity!!!
Villa Durante, belongs to the group of 18th-century Villas of the Golden Mile, built in the 1700s by architect De Dominici and painted by Ferdinando Sanfelice.
Staying at Villa Durante you will be catapulted back in time, into rooms wonderfully frescoed with paintings of the period. An exceptional facility not only for its uniqueness but, also, for the kindness and courtesy of the staff. It is an accommodation that I can do nothing but recommend.
It is also strategically located. 500 meters from the entrance of the Herculaneum excavations, 1 km from the Circumvesuviana Station of Herculaneum excavations (where you can reach Pompeii, Naples and Sorrento) and 600 meters from the MAV.
But not only near the station you will find, also, the main means of transportation that will take you to Vesuvius.
