wow! I really enjoyed my stay at this hostel! Welcoming and helping staff! The moment you enter in the hostel, you feel at home! Great breakfast too and what about the 5kg jar of Nutella! I really recommend this hostel to anyone who is looking to have a great moment in Napoli!

I staid three nights. My frist night was all women in room 10. The second night there was a wonderful, quiet couple (male, female) so no problem but the third night a single gentleman from Thailand checked in and snored terribly! Women too can snore but it was just so frustrating and the three of us, all females, got very little sleep. I had an early flight out and caught the 6am Alibus so I didn't have the chance to tell the staff. Otherwise a great stay!!

Hostel of the Sun was awesome. The staff were very helpful and sent us to many delicious pizzerias to eat. We also had the option of taking group trips with the hostel. We didn't, but the option is nice to have. The hostel was well located near the coast, but it was also quite noisy due to the traffic on the main road nearby. There was no visitor parking, so we had to park in a nearby garage, but that wasn't much of an issue as it was only two or so blocks away.

One of the best hostels I have ever stayed in. The location is within a 15min walk to most attractions and right trams/buses which can take you to the central train station. The staff here were the main standouts (as well as the numerous giant nutella jars for breakfast) as there extremely helpful and full of energy.

They have a group of fantastic staff that makes the difference. Keep up the friendly smiles, great advice, and upbeat attitude! You rock! No hot water on the 1st bathroom down the hall at the 2nd level.

Within about a minute of walking into the hostel I understood why it had won so many awards. The staff are very friendly and helpful, the hostel is in a great location and the facilities are great (I upgraded to a private room which could have been a hotel room, and had the added bonus of free towels). My stay there was great and I'd love to go back again, I just wish they had more hostels like this around as it was the best one I've stayed at so far.

Great and safe place to stay in Naples - which is very important because once you land in Naples, the only thing you are worried about is your safety. Would recommend this hostel to anyone who needs to stay in a safe place - but close to the train station.

the staff were great here. the only problem i had was that it was a little quiet, however if you want a place which will be quiet after 11/12 this would suit and as long as you aren't too loud there is the bar area with cheap drinks.

The best part of our hostel experience were the people working at the desk. Thanks to everyone who helped us plan our day, our excursions, our restaurants...everything. A great hostel, great value and fantastic people working there!

The staff there were super helpful, they helped me plan my daily travels. The rooms were clean and breakfast was included and it was good! It was very convenient too located right by the harbour and bud station. I would definitely stay there again!

I forgot to book my first night and the hostel was full. The girl at the reception called for me another hostel just in front of their hostel to know if they had place. I spent the two other nights a this hostel and it was great! Awesome staff. The rooms are clean and even if we have to share the bathroom they a really clean. If you arrive during the day on a weekday you will probably need to put 5 cents on the evelator to use it (be prepare otherwise you will have to climb 8 levels ;) )

Great greetings from the staff upon arrival! Very welcoming. Overall, place was good. Good breakfast and good atmosphere, but it is so large that it's a bit hard to get a personal touch from the hostel. I complain about this only because I also briefly stayed at the hostel Giovanni's Home and could not have been happier with the personality of his place. But this, Hostel of the Sun is great for partying and being with a large group of friends!

By far the best hostel of my trip! An excellent welcome, warm and pleasant, with exhaustive information (on visits to Pompeii, restaurants in town, etc....) and a lot of services available. The staff are very able and greet you with a smile, the atmosphere in the hostel is cozy and you quickly get the impression to be at home. Meeting and talking to the other guests is all the easier. I had very good moments there!
