Hotel Royal Continental, Naples, Campania, Italy

• Privileged location: Overlooking the Castel dell’Ovo on Naples’ bustling waterfront, Hotel Royal Continental is perfectly placed for exploring the historic, culinary and cultural attractions of this ancient city. After a day seeing the sights, there’s nowhere more inviting than the hotel’s rooftop seawater pool overlooking the Gulf of Naples, which was built to some fanfare in 1954.
  
  

• Dinner with a view: Neapolitan views don’t get much better than that at Pulcinella Dining Room, the hotel’s restaurant, where you can dine on classic local cuisine while overlooking the Castel dell’Ovo, with the glamorous island of Capri in the background. Seafood, naturally, is a particular specialty, with dishes including shrimp and crab risotto, pasta filled with cod and swordfish.
  
  

• Soothing R&R: The hotel is home to a well-equipped fitness centre, with weights and cardio equipment, so there’s no need to skip your workout. You’ll have earned a rest, so book yourself one of the hotel’s relaxing massages, with lymphatic drainage, reflexology and sports massages all on hand.
