This beautifully remodelled hotel, originally constructed in 1862 by the Politi family, is situated within the ancient park of Latomie dei Cappuccini just minutes from the archaeological sites of Neapolis, which include the Greek Theatre and the Roman Amphitheatre.
The hotel is extremely proud of its history. In 1955, the Grand Hotel Villa Politi welcomed Sir Winston Churchill and today, the room in which he stayed has been modernised to create a spacious suite with views over the ancient limestone quarries to the front of the hotel. The Italian royal family also stayed at the property in 1933 and a picture taken during this visit is included in the hotel’s brochure. Care has been taken to retain the original beauty and character of the property.
