Best Area to stay in Naples

[sharonov]

When I was in Naples the last (and only other) time, I stayed in the ancient part of the city, on Tribunali. It was noisy but I liked it. Now I'm having a hard time finding a rental in that area. What other area of Naples would be recommended for a tourist? We won't have a car, and don't want to spend all our time in busses and trains, so I'm looking for somewhere that's walkable to lots of interesting sites. Any suggestions?

I am not familiar enough eith the neighborhoods to help but here:

is where I have booked for next April. If you do a search on this site I think you will find some other ideas.

I always stay in the same place just off Piazza Municipio. I stay there because I like the apartment and the owner, but the area is good and central as well. If you'd like a quieter area yet still close to the historic center and sites, look around Via Santa Lucia and Via Partenope. Close, walkable to the center yet near or on the waterfront, it's an ideal area.

Thanks, Ellen. I'll look there. I was hoping to stay in the historic center but am having trouble finding what I want in Naples. Expanding to other areas will be very helpful.

I'm in the same boat as Jan above. I've only stayed in Naples once, in the apartment Jan linked to above. But it was certainly a very convenient location for what we wanted to see and do.
