"Basically wouldn't recommend staying in Naples at all other than maybe one day to go see Pompei and climb Mt." — source Hotels.com
"It is worth asking for a room with a balcony (as there are only 2) as they took this into account and we managed to get one, and also to check out the offers on their site which show special offers (for extra nights at low costs etc) We would recommend this hotel very highly." — source Venere
"The late-evening trip on the night we arrived by train made us nervous, especially the short walk from the Montesanto train station to the funiculare; Recommend arriving during daylight hours if possible." — source Expedia
"I highly recommend this hotel." — source Hotels.com

More information on San Francesco al Monte
The history of this convent is long and fascinating. The monastery was founded in the 16th century by Friar Agostino da Miglionico, a 'poor monk' of the Order of Friars Minor Conventual, also called 'Barbanti' for their flowing beards. Friar Agostino built a small cell in the bowels of the mountain that, with time, grew into a more comfortable monastery. There are still important traces of the past that contribute to the enchantment of the place, such as the Chapel of San Giovan Giuesppe della Croce, the patron saint of Ischia of vibrant religious fervour, who passed the last twelve years of his life at Santa Lucia al Monte. He died in the monastery and is buried there: his cell, still impregnated with his memories, has been faithfully preserved and can be visited. Evocative and important spaces from the ancient complex have been skilfully preserved, such as the oven where the bread was baked and the frescoed refectory that still seems to resound with the far-off echo of the prayers and readings that accompanied mealtimes. Here and there you will find fragments of frescoes, old majolica and decorations that testify to the place's artistic heritage. The property offers airport transfer (paying), baby-sitting service, banquet facilities, bar, concierge, conference facilities, disabled facilities, doctor on call, Internet access-high speed, laundry service, lift/ elevator, lobby, non smoking rooms, parking facilities-at cost, reception, restaurant, room service, safe deposit box, secretarial services, solarium and swimming pool-outdoor.
