Hotel Miramare Stabia is an upper-middle-range property situated on the Castellammare di Stabia, overlooking the Gulf of Naples. All 50 rooms and suites feature balconies with full or partial sea views, along with solid amenities, including minibars, coffee- and tea-making facilities, and free Wi-Fi. Junior Suites add whirlpool tubs in the bathrooms. Amenities include a pool deck with lovely sea views and an adjacent snack bar, a restaurant with a free continental buffet breakfast, and a lobby bar with indoor and outdoor seating -- but there's no gym or spa. Note that there isn't a swimmable beach. Travelers looking for something a tad more luxurious may want to consider La Medusa Hotel & Boutique Spa, which features more elegant amenities but is inland and slightly removed from town.
Scene
Sea-facing hotel with bright lobby and great views; popular with vacationing couples
The upper-middle-range Hotel Miaramare Stabia occupies a cream-colored building on a slightly rundown street, overlooking the Gulf of Naples. The lobby is bright and cheery, with large windows and recessed lighting plus off-white walls with bright colorful nautical artwork, shelving units with china in hues of gold, blue and white, and a few tall pots with decorative twisting driftwood branches. There's a bar off to one side, and the lobby extends out to a lovely gulf-facing deck, accessible via glass floor-to-ceiling doors. The hotel attracts tourists, notably couples, though meeting- and wedding-planning services are available. Small pets are welcome with advanced arrangements.
Location
On the Castellammare di Stabia waterfront, a five-minute walk from the railway station
Hotel Miramare Stabia is located right on the waterfront of Castellammare di Stabia, overlooking the Gulf of Naples. It's a five-minute walk from the railway station and there are plenty of shops and restaurants within easy walking distance. The Circumvesuviana railway station in the center of town links to nearby points of interest, including Naples, Pompeii, Sorrento, and Herculaneum. Amalfi and Positano are an hour away by car. Getting to Vietri sul Mare takes around 30 minutes. It’s about 45 minutes to Naples International Airport.
Rooms
Bright, sunny rooms with balconies and full or partial sea views, though some have two twins pushed together
This hotel offers three categories of rooms: 17-square-meter (183-square-foot) Classic Rooms (with partial sea views), 30-square-meter (323-square-foot) Superiors (with front-facing sea views), and 60-square-meter (646-square-foot) Junior Suites (also with sea views). All have balconies and some have gorgeous views. All units come equipped with minibars, safes, flat-screen TVs, coffee- and tea-making facilities, and free Wi-Fi. Beds in Classic Rooms are smaller, around double-size, while the other categories feature two twin-size beds pushed together. Classic and Superior Rooms have nearly identical decor, with white walls and off-white floors, simple blue bedspreads paired with blue art pieces with accents of yellow or orange, and plain white furniture. Junior Suites are more stylish, with a similar aesthetic but two-toned bedspreads and plush leather-finish white sofas accented by large accent wall murals. All categories are bright, with balconies fronted with heavy blackout curtains and a mix of lamps and recessed lighting. Classic Rooms have compact bathrooms with small vanity areas, bidets, and walk-in showers. Basic toiletries and hairdryers are provided. Superior bathrooms are a bit larger, with shower/tub combos, while Junior Suites feature small walk-in showers and huge, separate whirlpool tubs.
