This is a wonderful hotel! The grounds are immaculate and so serene with beautiful water features. You can have a crazy day out hiking up Vesuvius or go tramping round Pompeii and then come back here for serious relaxation. The breakfast was wonderful, so many pastries and cakes as well as the usual cooked offerings, cheeses and juice. They have thought of everything. The free shuttle bus is great, it drops you right where the Vesuvius bus departs from, and is also within easy walking distance of Herculaneum. The beautiful pool was still open in October, yes very cold, but cold water swimming is good for the circulation so get on with it! We're so lucky to have found it, thanks to all at Il San Cristoforo for being such fabulous hosts. A tip that would have helped us - your taxi cannot drop you at the front door. When arriving through the front gates, your taxi needs to drop you at the bollards and you either walk down or there is a golf buggy that can take you and your luggage.

“Great oasis near Vesuvius and Napoli - don't miss to visit the restaurant”

This is a relatively small but quite nice hotel that seem to have weddings almost every day. This means a lot of happy people and loud music during the day.

This is a relatively small but quite nice hotel that seem to have weddings almost every day. This means a lot of happy people and loud music during the day. Fortunately music usually seem to stop early evening. On the bright side this meant nice fireworks both nights we stayed. Nice rooms and great service but whatever the ratings you read about the restaurant, do not miss to visit there since the food and service was truly excellent. We were a bit skeptic since the menu was difficult to interpret so we went for the set menu (6 courses) and both me and my wife agreed that we have rarely had such a great dinner. The price/performance was excellent and quality/taste compared to many 1 and two star Michelin's we have eaten at. I had a great wine pairing and my wife non alcoholic pairing that was nothing short of fantastic in her view.

We stayed at Il San Cristoforo for a week and used it as a base to visit Pomepei, Herculaneum and other local areas. The hotel was great and the staff were always very professional and helpful. The rooms were very clean and were always made up when we returned - breakfast was also very nice and very varied. We chose not to eat at the restaurant but the helpful receptionist gave us suggestions of other trusted places in the local area, arranging a taxi for us to get to De Vita. A thank you to Giuseppe the driver, he drove us to Ercolano Scarvi many times during our week but it was very much appreciated, without him we wouldn't have been able to go anywhere. There were a number of weddings whilst we were staying but this wasn't a problem, reception told us when these would end by and we got to listen to some good live music and see fireworks. This never disturbed us and only added to the atmosphere. Our only points of improvement would be to have a bathroom mat in the bathroom as the shower could make the marble floor quite wet and slippery and we ended up going through quite a few towels to keep it dry. Our only other point was that the bed would make lots of creaking noises whenever you turned. But other than that a very good stay and highly recommended resort.
