Description
The Colori e Note B&B is located in the historic district of Materdei, a district of the oldest and most characteristic Naples, halfway between the lower part of the city and the hilly part, it represents Neapolis, the Greek Naples.

Materdei, together with Sanità (which gave birth to the great Totò) and the Virgins, were the splendid scenography of the film "The gold of Naples", made famous by the interpretations of Sophia Loren, in the role of the "pizza maker ”; The district is also famous for the recent architectural redevelopment of its main square, Piazza Scipione Ammirato, where there is the Metro line 1 stop.

Materdei station itself is part of the famous artistic circuit, unique in its kind, as well as the pride of the city, "Le Stazioni dell'Arte"; in fact, along the path that leads from the entrance to the platforms, the traveler is accompanied on an imaginary tour by screen prints by Balatresi, Gili, Giovannoni, Gliglorov, Santachiara, Innocente and Sowden and chromed panels by Lewitt.

The B&B is only 50 meters on foot from Metro 1; at only 700ml. on foot from the famous "Cimitero delle Fontanelle", 800 m on foot from the National Archaeological Museum of Naples and from the main street of the historic center, "Via Toledo"; 8 km from Naples International Airport (Capodichino).

Hello everyone! I am Gianni and in sharing with my partner Daniela I manage this beautiful bed and breakfast called colors and notes because it contains both the always beautiful theme of music and the colors that in the city of Naples are always very alive and present. We try in every way to make our guests feel at home, from the very first moment of their arrival until their departure we give constant assistance with valuable advice on places and places to visit, where to eat where to have fun etc etc.., we try to embody the true spirit of the B&B which is a little bit of trying to recreate the family environment. We are waiting for you!

The Colori e Note B&B is located in the historic district of Materdei, a district of the oldest and most characteristic Naples, halfway between the lower part of the city and the hilly part, it represents Neapolis, the Greek Naples.
Materdei, together with Sanità (which gave birth to the great Totò) and the Virgins, were the splendid scenography of the film "The gold of Naples", in particular, the famous episode "Pizzas on credit", made famous by the interpretations of Sophia Loren, in the role of the "pizzaiola", and Paolo Stoppa in the part of the "inconsolable widower". The neighborhood is also famous for the recent architectural redevelopment of its main square, Piazza Scipione Ammirato, where the Metro line 1 stop is located. The square was redeveloped in 2003 and is characterized by the strong presence of architectural and artistic elements such as sculptures, mosaics and tiles from Chia and Ontani.
Materdei station itself is part of the famous artistic circuit, unique in its kind, as well as the pride of the city, "Le Stazioni dell'Arte"; in fact, along the path that leads from the entrance to the platforms, the traveler is accompanied on an imaginary tour by screen prints by Balatresi, Gili, Giovannoni, Gliglorov, Santachiara, Innocente and Sowden and chromed panels by Lewitt.
Similar scenarios occur in all Metro 1 stations, at each station the emotional experience is very high and the perceptive involvement makes moving around a real tour within a tour.
The B&B is only 50 meters on foot from Piazza Ammirato and therefore from Metro 1; at only 700ml. on foot from the famous "Cimitero delle Fontanelle", 800 m on foot from the National Museum of Naples and from the main street of the historic center, "Via Toledo"; at 8km. from Naples International Airport (Capodichino).

I had chosen this bed and breakfast by reading the reviews of previous customers who emphasized the friendliness, professionalism, and care of Gianni, the manager. I must say that such positive evaluations were fully confirmed during the week-long stay I spent at the B&B Colori e Note, and I must add, alongside these merits, also the confidential and never intrusive relationship that Gianni manages to establish with the guests of the property. I can say that it is certainly the best expression of Neapolitan spirit, the one that makes you feel at home even if you are hundreds of kilometers away from it. However, it would be reductive to focus the review solely on the manager. The property is indeed welcoming, clean, tidy, and also quiet, despite being located in a populous area. It is just a few dozen meters from the metro station which then allows you to reach every part of the city, but at the same time it is close enough to the historic center to reach it on foot in just over ten minutes. In conclusion, I feel like recommending the property to those who want a stay in familiarity and relaxation, but also in comfort, without spending excessive amounts. If I return to Naples in the future, I will have no doubts about where to stay.

Carissimo Piergiovanni, grazie mille! Non so cosa sia successo, ma io avevo risposto alla recensione qualche giorno dopo che la facesti, forse c'è stato qualche problema sui sistemi e non fu pubblicata perchè adesso, scorrendo le varie recensioni, vedo che la tua è senza risposta e non esiste proprio perchè onestamente è una delle piu belle e assolutamente merita una risposta anche se lo feci naturalmente anche e soprattutto in privato! Ti abbraccio, Gianni.

Gianni is a fabulous host. He provided a lot of information on what to see and what to do. He was there every morning to offer a good morning and a smile for his guests. The place is very near the National Archaeological Museum and the old city center. You can reach it on foot, as well as a very famous pizzeria, Starita. I highly recommend this b&b.

We stayed in the yellow room of this bed and breakfast for a week of vacation in Naples and I liked everything: the room, with a window overlooking a beautiful internal garden, is large and comfortable, very clean, and very quiet, with a small bathroom, but new and functional. The location of the property is perfect, in a quiet neighborhood, with a metro stop 100 m away that allows you to easily reach the station and the center, where you can also walk with a stroll. I was also satisfied with the breakfast, simple, but of good quality with coffee / cappuccino made at the moment and homemade sweets. The real added value, however, is represented by the reception and hospitality of the host, Gianni, who is very kind and smiling, always available to provide help and advice of all kinds (from what to see, to how to reach the various places, to restaurants where to eat) and always makes sure that his guests are having the best time on vacation. It is a real pleasure to start the day with a chat with him and makes you feel truly at home! I recommend everyone to try Colori e Note, and I will certainly choose it again when I happen to return to beautiful Naples.

Excellent facility, the location for visiting Naples is excellent, a quiet neighborhood one minute from Materdei metro which in just 4 stops leaves you in the center. Spectacular owner Gianni, friendly and very helpful supporting in everything. Greetings to Gianni and leave a comment, not for criticism, but just for a point of improvement: besides the excellent homemade sweets, we wouldn't have minded having some special sweet pastries or brioches for breakfast from the excellent Neapolitan bakeries. Greetings Alvaro.

Mitico Alvaro!!!Ti ringrazio tantissimo per la recensione, davvero! Parole ottime e preziose che sono sicuro verranno apprezzate tanto dai clienti o potenziali clienti che vorranno scegliere il mio B&B! Capitolo colazione, eh caro Alvaro, credimi, a me converrebbe anche a livello economico mettere due paste dolci, due cornetti e due brioche ma sai, capita molto spesso che ai clienti queste cose non piacciono e se non vengono mangiate subito questo tipo di cose sai cosa siamo costretti a fare noi? Buttarle nell'immondizia ed io ODIO gettare il cibo! La torta fresca fatta in casa, bene o male qualche giorno la puoi mettere su, specie la crostata, il plum cacke, la ciambella, la sbriciolata, tutte cose che se non vengono mangiate una mattina posso metterle anche il giorno dopo! Mi costa di piu mi rendo conto ma per fortuna mediamente le cose che metto io vengono apprezzate mille volte di piu rispetto ad un banale cornetto o una brioche che puoi mangiare in QUALSIASI bar/pasticceria di Napoli! Un abbraccio grande Alvaro!!

The structure is very convenient due to its location, it is not in the center but a few steps from the metro. It is well renovated, the rooms are clean and the bathrooms are new. The manager welcomed us with kindness and availability giving us many tips on places to eat. I might enhance the breakfast but for the room price it is more than adequate. I would recommend the structure.

The answer from the host:
Ciao Rosa! Ci tenevo tanto a ringraziarti per la bella recensione e per le ottime parole spese per la mia struttura. Davvero grazie di cuore! Allo stesso tempo però, ci tengo molto a precisare quanto da te evidenziato su un paio di punti; 1. Il B&B si trova nel cuore del quartiere di Materdei che è una zona del CENTRO STORICO di Napoli. Il CENTRO STORICO di Napoli è molto molto grande, non è solo i quartieri Spagnoli, piuttosto che Via Tribunali o Spaccanpoli, ma abbraccia anche e soprattutto il quartiere Materdei dove è ubicato il mio B&B. Ne da prova che, il Museo Archeologico Nazionale dista soli 700 mt dalla mia struttura, la centralissima Via Toledo idem e comunque, avendo la metropolitana linea 1 a 50 metri se proprio si vuole raggiungere il cuore del centro storico piu velocemente e non facendo 15 minuti a piedi con la metro si fa ancora prima! Scusami se mi sono dilungato a spiegare bene questo punto, ma penso che la posizione di una struttura, nell'ambito di una scelta da parte di un potenziale cliente, sia molto importante e quindi ci tenevo a sottolineare e precisare questa cosa. 2. La colazione a mio giudizio, è perfettamente in linea con il concept base di un B&B! Non somministro alcun cibo salato per mia assoluta e precisa scelta. Penso che, come anche da mie personali esperienze, la colazione salata sia più per hotel da 3 stelle a salire. Vedi, tanti anni fà, quando sono nati i primi B&B, il concetto era di ospitare nelle case private le persone, dando loro una camera, un bagno ed al mattino a colazione facendo saggiare qualche torta appena fatta, facendo cosi sentire come a casa l'ospite. Ecco, io credo che questa concezione forse, da parte di alcuni viaggiatori, si stia un tantino perdendo, e qualcuno quasi pretende il cibo salato. Io però, tengo molto a questa tradizione, credimi, mi costerebbe molto meno dare un po di salato piuttosto che le torte fresche ma non lo faccio perchè credo negli antichi valori di come sono nati i B&B. Ecco, anche per questo punto ci tenevo a dire come la penso a riguardo e rispondere alla recensione. Ti mando un abbraccio grande e spero di rivedervi ancora al mio B&B!!! Ciao, Gianni

We were hosted by Gianni at the lovely Bed and Breakfast "Colori e Note". The complex is nice and welcoming, the structure and rooms are themed (as suggested by the name). All very clean. The rooms are spacious and the view over the garden is truly enchanting. Moreover, the owner was very kind and helpful. He recommended the areas to visit, the typical destinations, and also where and what to eat. Truly a host with a capital H! The Bed and Breakfast is highly recommended.
