Location
La Casa di Assunta is located at the epicenter of the historical centre and is adjacent to the 13th Century monastery of Monostero di Santa Chiara and only minutes from all the key sights of the city.
By day, the surrounding streets are filled with shops and markets, with many pizza restaurants blending into the graffiti filled streetscape. At night, the area comes to life. There are people strolling. There are people eating. There are even people moving furniture.
The neighbourhood of the historical centre itself feels like a small and picturesque village within the city. The atmosphere is very lively with small narrow streets offering a mix of residential and retail with markets, craft shops, museums, churches, cafes, bakeries, pastry shops and excellent restaurants and pizzerias. There's a real 'buzz' to the place.
San Gregorio Armeno is only a 8-minute walk from the apartment, and is the epicentre of Italy’s Nativity scene tradition. Neapolitans flock to this street in the lead up to Christmas, however all year round the shops along Via San Gregorio Armeno are open and make and sell both the detailed Nativity structures and the many figurines that inhabit them.
Spaccanapoli is also a short stroll away and is teeming with life. There are plenty of artistic and cultural attractions to visit nearby including San Gregorio Armeno, Piazza del Gesù, Piazza San Domenico and entry to the must see Roman-Greco underground city of Neapolis.
La Casa di Assunta is well-connected to the city’s other cultural and historical splendours, with Piazza Garibaldi, the location of Naples’ central station, only a 7 minute walk from the apartment.
Naples Capodichino Airport is a short 20-minute drive away.
