The building where the hotel is placed in a XVIII century’s palace and used to be the residence of Cardinal Sisto Riario Sforza, the last Bishop of the Bourbon Kingdom of Naples who lived in that apartment for more than 30 years, from 1845 to 1877. Since he became Naples bishop, he was the the last bishop of the “Two Sicilies Kingdom” and the first one in Italian Kingdom.
Because of its historical relevance, the palace is under Neapolitan cultural assets administration.
From its glorious past, today the building still keeps intact some beautiful structural elements, such as the wood gate, large stairs, high ceilings with rafters or groin vaults and big wood windows.
In the common areas of the hotel you can find typical Neapolitan tiled floors with ancient pieces of hand-painted “maiolica”, a luxurious Baroque-style hall with painted ceiling and all walls covered with mirrors and golden “stuccos”.
Moreover, in some rooms there are high ceilings with wood hand-painted rafters, groin vaults or coffer ceilings and precious period pieces of furniture.
