Naples
Located on a street lined with booksellers, this sassy B&B has six rooms channelling an Armani vibe with their muted tones, stainless-steel detailing and mosaic showers; room 216 comes with a Jacuzzi. Though windows look out onto lively Piazza Dante, double glazing keeps the noise at bay.
The foyer has soaring bookshelves lined with literature, objets d'art and vintage paraphernalia (including a 1745 edition of Dante's The Divine Comedy).
