Popular hotel accommodation short walk from Naples station around Piazza Garibaldi
Many visitors arriving or departing from Naples will do so by train. The main train station for Naples where all the long distance trains from elsewhere in Italy stop is Central Station, (Stazione Centrale).
Central Station although out to the east of the city centre is also a major bus terminus, a stop for the Naples airport bus service and has one of Naples Metro lines passing through.
The independent Circumvesuviana rail network also comes through here and is important to visitors as it is these trains that take you to Pompeii or Mount Vesuvius if you are travelling independently.
Although physically part of Central Station the platforms for the Circumvesuviana trains are to one side with their own access and called Garibaldi Station.
Where to stay in Naples
Hotels near Central Station, Naples
Immediately in front of Central Station is Piazza Garibaldi, a very large square, but not particularly attractive as the centre is used as a bus terminus and the square is basically just a large traffic island.
However around the square are a number of the best value hotels in Naples, and all very conveniently within easy walking distance of Central Station.
To the east of city centre you can also walk to the historic city centre and cathedral in about 20 minutes. As Naples' main train station, local bus and metro links are excellent to wherever you want to go in Naples.
As well as being able to walk to your hotel on arriving by train at Naples or off the airport bus, you will also have the trains towards Pompeii, Mount Vesuvius etc on your doorstep.
The ferry and cruise ship terminal is much further. It would probably take 45 minutes walking but there are frequent local buses.
If you are on a budget, the hotels around Central Station are probably the benchmark you should compare other options to.
