Hercules House - Il riposo degli Eroi

Perfect room, everything I needed and very kind and helpful hosts

niks

Antonio was very friendly and explained everything I needed to know, the room was clean and neat too The location is great, the archeological site of Herculaneum and the train station both a five minute walk away

The shower head could be changed, didn't flow properly anymore, but that's a very minor issue

A cosy and clean room with alot of space and utilities. Extremely friendly landlords that provided super service. Resturants and shops, markeds, yes everything is within walking distance. Just around the corner you will find it all. The locals are super friendly. The food is amazing. 15-20 min walk then you are at the beach. 5 min walk to the ruins and main street. Highly recommended. Five stars to Mary and Enzo, thanks for letting me stay.

The location made it perfect for us to visit the archeological sites we were interested. Ercolano scavi station is well connected and the distance to the station was simply a walk. There are plenty of local caffès (Forum!) around for breakfast or pizzerias for lunch/dinner (Ro.vi) Owners were great friendly chatty like all Neapolitans. A pleasure.

It was my second time staying there, the hosts are great and the room is comfortable and clean

Room was comfortable, area was very convenient for all sorts of activities both leisure and business. The owners were very attentive when needed.

wifi could be improved for Business purposes, but was still good. its coverage in the room was mostly fine. There were quite a few mosquitos. had pots and pans for cooking, but no actual cooking facilities other than a microwave.

Hercules House was perfect for us, it's situated in the heart of a real Italian neighbour hood. We really experienced every day authentic Italian living.. the fish mongers below do start work early. To be fair, they were a reliable alarm clock! At night the house was quiet with a good working air con unit. I used the communal kettle each morning for a coffee, we never saw or heard any one from the other two rooms during our stay. Plenty of cafes and restaurants within easy walking distance, we also found a good sized supermarket close by. Enzo (our host) was a lovely guy, it was a pleasure to have met him.

Everything was excellent. The owners of the accommodation were very pleasant, they always tried to advise and help with everything. Location very good 8 min. from the train station and therefore a short time to Naples and Pompei. Many restaurants, pizzerias and cafes around. P.S.: The red wine was very good.☺️

The only minus was a little less dishes and cutlery, but it was not very important.

The property is really well located to visit Herculaneum, which is literally at the end of the street. Very close to the station, and the train to/from Naples or Sorrento. It's simple to take a bus to Vesuveus from outside the station. The immediate neighbourhood is a bit rough, perhaps because it's the actual local market and the community there just literally dumps their trash on the ground. A shame really as it feels grubby and run down - the rest of Ercolano seems clean. People are friendly though and the fish stalls outside the window didn't bother me at all. The owners of the property are friendly and kind - thankyou for rescuing me from the balcony when the door shut and I was trapped outside! The bed is comfortable and there is a small kitchenette which is well and thoughtfully equipped. Unfortunately it's right outside the door of the room I slept in so an intrusion when guests used it late at night.

I chose this property based on photos on the website as it looked cosy, interesting vintage/shabby chic decor. Staying for 4 days I knew I'd be spending time in the room and I wanted a comfortable room. And was delighted when I checked in as my room matched the photos, was super stylish as well as functional and very welcoming. The run down outside area didn't matter when staying in a lovely, comfortable room. I was settling in, then the owner told me I had to move as someone else wanted my room. Annoyed but tired after a nightmare journey I went along with it. The room I was put in (Vesuvius) was nothing like the photos and not a welcoming or comfortable room. College student/dorm style with the bed tucked into a dark corner and an odd mix of leftover furniture that lacked style or functionality. I didn't see the third bedroom and wasn't offered it but assume it's nicely decorated with a canopy bed per the photos. Can't understand at all why you'd move a guest already checked in, for someone else, and it felt unprofessional. Also can't work out why the room I stayed in was so lacking in style and comfort compared to the others?? The owners clearly have very good taste and need to wave their magic wand across Vesuvius room. I'd definitely stay again but only in a different room.
