Location and logistics

Gardens close to Ischia Porto

View towards the Castello Aragonese from the coast of Ischia

Ischia Ponte and the Castello Aragonese are easily included during the stay.

The hotel is a short walk from Corso Vittoria Colonna’s restaurants and shops. Explore town on foot and return to the shelter of the gardens.

Most visitors arrive by hydrofoil or ferry at Ischia Porto, followed by a short taxi or arranged transfer to the hotel. Naples and Pozzuoli have year-round sea connections, while other routes across the Bay of Naples are more seasonal and should be checked against the final travel dates.

Explore without a car, using taxis, buses or private touring for the island’s other towns. We can arrange your mainland transfer, sea crossing and final journey to the hotel together.

The wider journey

Follow Rome and Naples with time by the sea

Four nights leave time for the hotel and an island outing. Stay five to seven for more thermal bathing, town visits and days on the water.

Culture first, island time afterwards

Rome, Naples and Ischia form a natural sequence. High-speed rail connects Rome with Naples, and Naples is the practical gateway for the sea crossing to Ischia. Ending at Excelsior Belvedere allows the pace to slow after the museums, historic streets and archaeological sites of the two cities.

Allow three or four nights in Rome, two or three in Naples and five or more on Ischia for time to enjoy each stay. For a week away, Naples and Ischia make a rewarding combination.
