“A grand hotel, albeit slightly faded around the edges, offering old-fashioned service, Parkers first opened its revolving door in 1870. The look is restrained Neoclassical, with ornate ceilings, chandeliers and elegant Empire-style antiques. The spectacular setting on the Vomero hill means that many of the rooms have fabulous, far-reaching views. The panorama is shared by the top-floor restaurant; dinner on the terrace on a warm summer evening can’t be beaten for romance, but breakfast is pretty good too.”
