Palazzo Turchini
Hotel Overview
HistoryPalazzo Turchini, a bright symbol of the Parthenopean pietas
and of the intense musical life of Naples in the 17th and 18th centuries,
is located in the heart of the vice regal city, very close to Rua Catalana,
where able craftsmen have been working copper and iron for centuries.
The building belonged to the Royal Conservatory della Piet dei Turchini, to
which Salvatore Di Giacomo dedicated one of his best pages. In the 17th century,
in agreement with the times more open to the social aspects and more sensitive
towards the new serious opera (Melodramma), the Conservatory place of
reception for abandoned children took a new turn and its studies became
exquisitely music studies, and it began to be a real source of musicians and
singers who made Naples an extraordinary pole of culture.
The palace, which over the centuries renewed many times its form, changed its
destination after the last restoration interventions, without losing its
original sense of hospitality: the elegance and sobriety of rooms harmonize
themselves today with an advanced technology; golden marbles mix with valuable
wood and refined furnishings, in order to make the stay more harmonious.
Location
It is very easy to get to Palazzo Turchini from the airport, the
central railway station and the highway. The hotel is located in via Medina
21/22, not far from Municipio square (Municipality of Naples). The harbor and
the underground are also very close, as well as the cable cars funiculars- which
allow in a few minutes to reach the hill areas of Naples.
Rooms
The twenty-seven rooms, with warm and relaxing colours – three of them have a
little private terrace – are characterized by the different exposure. Some of
them look into the internal garden, some other rooms have a view on the typical
loggias and domes of the city, from other ones one can admire the Vesuvius. The
Fountain of Neptune, of XVIIth century, the Church of Incoronata, the gardens of
the Royal Palace, the high towers of castle Maschio Angioino, the parvis of San
Giorgio dei Genovesi are the unique scenario that one can admire from the eight
rooms of the external facade.
