The Property — BeHouse
BeHouse is a functional 3-star in Naples' Centro Storico, steps from Piazza del Plebiscito. The lobby is modest but bright, with helpful staff who hand you a map and point to the nearest pizza joint. It suits budget-conscious travellers who want a clean, central base with solid breakfast and no frills. You don't come here for the interior design – you come for the location and the price.
Chronicles of Naples
Naples was founded by Greek settlers around the 8th century BC as Neápolis ('new city'), later absorbed into the Roman Republic. Its medieval and Baroque layers are spectacular: the Spanish quarter, Castel Nuovo, and the royal palace dominate the skyline. The historic centre is a UNESCO World Heritage site, crammed with churches, narrow alleys, and piazzas. Today it's a chaotic, passionate city that balances ancient grandeur with a gritty, modern street life – and arguably the best pizza in the world.
Best Time to Visit
Full Naples guide →Best months
May, June, September – warm days (25–30°C), blue skies, and fewer tourists than July-August. June is especially good for evening strolls along the seafront without the full summer crush.
Peak / festival surge
July and August are peak: heat 30–35°C, crowds everywhere, hotel prices double. The Feast of San Gennaro (19 Sept) also spikes interest, but July-August is the main pricey period.
Budget shoulder season
Late September and early October are ideal for discounts: still pleasant weather (20–25°C), fewer queues for museums and catacombs. November is the cheapest but damp and grey.
Weather & packing
Naples has a Mediterranean climate but June can get sticky, especially inland. Pack light linen or cotton layers, comfortable walking shoes for cobbles – and always a small umbrella for sudden afternoon showers.
Live City Briefing — Naples
- The €25m restoration of the Galleria Umberto I is nearly complete – its glass dome and mosaic floors are fully visible again after years of scaffolding. Worth a quick look.
- The city's new ZTL (limited traffic zone) in the historic centre is more strictly enforced from June 2025 – if you arrive by car, check your hotel's parking arrangements carefully or you'll get fined.
- Naples' metro line 1 has extended hours for the summer season until midnight, making it easier to reach the airport and the archaeological museum.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jun 2026Before you check in to BeHouse, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the upper floors away from the lift and stairwell to reduce foot-traffic noise, and pick an interior courtyard-facing room if you're a light sleeper.
Rooms to avoid
Stay away from rooms next to the lift shaft, stairwell door, or directly above the breakfast area or bar — these get early-morning clatter and late-night chatter.
Best views
Ask for a room with a balcony or window facing away from the main road — even a side street or courtyard view tends to be quieter than a direct street-facing one.
Quietest floors
Higher floors are generally quieter, especially the 3rd and 4th floors in a typical 5-floor building, as they're further from street noise and lobby bustle.
🔊 Noise notes
Thin walls and tiled floors are common in Italian 3-star hotels; bring earplugs if you're noise-sensitive. Check for double glazing if you're overlooking a busy street.
Insider tips
1. Book directly with the hotel and ask about room upgrades upon arrival — midweek stays often yield better options. 2. Call a few days before to reconfirm your specific request (quiet, high floor) and note the name of the person you speak to.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use ATMs for the best rates; avoid exchange bureaux in the airport and tourist spots like Piazza del Plebiscito as they charge high fees and poor rates.
Cards widely accepted in shops, restaurants, and hotels; contactless and mobile pay common; carry some cash for small cafes, market stalls, or when buying street food.
Not expected but appreciated; round up the bill at restaurants (5-10% for good service), leave small change for taxis, and give €1-2 per bag to hotel porters.

Spaccanapoli and Via dei Tribunali are packed with cheap pizza fritta, arancini, and sfogliatella stalls.

A single metro/bus ticket costs €1.20; a day pass (ANM) for unlimited travel is around €4.50. From the airport, take the Alibus shuttle (€5) – cheaper than taxis.
Eat where locals queue for lunch – avoid places with laminated menus in English. Drink your coffee at the counter, not at a table. Fill a reusable water bottle at the city’s free public water fountains (known as 'fontanelle').

Find train tickets →Napoli Piazza Garibaldi (central station, 10 mins from airport by bus) → Piazza Amedeo (nearest metro to hotel)
💡 From Piazza Amedeo, the hotel is a 5-minute walk downhill. This line runs overground through tunnels — sit on the left for views. Buy return tickets at the machine; the app 'Trenitalia' works but can be glitchy.
Naples Capodichino Airport → B&B La Bouganville
💡 FreeNow works better than Uber in Naples. Set your pickup at the airport's 'Arrivi' gate number — the driver will call you. Price is fixed through the app, but expect a 5-minute wait for car assignment.
Naples Capodichino Airport → B&B La Bouganville (Via Giuseppe Martucci, 7)
💡 Fix the price before getting in. Avoid drivers offering a ride inside the arrivals hall — walk to the official taxi rank outside. For La Bouganville, make sure they know it's in the Chiaia district, not Mergellina.
Naples Capodichino Airport → Piazza Municipio (nearest stop to hotel)
💡 Buy tickets at the airport tabacchi or online. Validate on board. From Piazza Municipio, it's a 10-minute walk to the hotel. Avoid this route with large suitcases — the walk up Via Chiaia is cobbled.

Top Attractions in Naples
💡 Go between 10am and noon, before the tour groups pack it. Grab a sfogliatella at Pintauro on Via Toledo.
💡 Bring a picnic — there’s a small kiosk but it’s erratic. Sunset is the best time, but arrive by 4pm to claim a bench on the western side.
💡 Book online a day ahead — walk-ups often sell out by noon. Wear trainers; the tunnels are damp and uneven.
💡 Head straight to the Secret Cabinet on the mezzanine floor — a collection of erotic Roman art that’s often overlooked by casual visitors.
💡 Bring your own water — the café up there charges triple. Also check if the adjacent Certosa di San Martino is open (combined ticket €10).
