HISTORY

You just can’t say you’ve travelled the world until you’ve been at least once to Naples, the Parthenopean capital part of the Grand Tour and celebrated by worldwide artists and writers. Crossroads of people living in the Mediterranean Area, the city inspired the hotel name, to celebrate the renowned sea that joins the Italian coasts to North Africa ones and to the Arab peninsula.

From the original rationalist architectural style that inspired the Principal Architect of Italy, Ferdinando Chiaromonte, and the designer Giò Ponti, only the ample spaces and neo-classical look remain. In February 2005, a complete restyling of the building took the hotel back to its original style, recreating the elegant and comfortable atmosphere of a private residence.

In 2003, the Renaissance hotel became part of the Marriott group. Today , Renaissance Naples Hotel Mediterraneo, part of the SNG group, headed by Neapolitan businessman Salvatore Naldi, is a favorite choice of businessmen and travelers alike.

The secret? All the features of the Renaissance are there but with a Neapolitan soul. The different shades of color on the upholstery, on the parquet and marble flooring, softens the volume and spaces and, at the same time, speaks to the solar warmth of the city, with its contrasts of amplified light from the liquid splendor of the Gulf of Naples, that can be felt from the roof-garden and in the guest rooms.
