The convent has a long and fascinating history.

Agata, into a comfortable little convent.

Today, the antique convent has been restructured while maintaining its historic and artistic value, and has become the elegant and accommodating Hotel San Francesco al Monte. The charm of the ambience remains intact, and every detail has been restored to its old splendor.

The swimming pool is open from 15 May 2008 until 15 September 2008, from 09:00 until 17:30.

Description:
The history of this convent is long and fascinating. The monastery was founded in the 16th century by Friar Agostino da Miglionico, a 'poor monk' of the Order of Friars Minor Conventual, also called 'Barbanti' for their flowing beards. Friar Agostino built a small cell in the bowels of the mountain that, with time, grew into a more comfortable monastery. There are still important traces of the past that contribute to the enchantment of the place, such as the Chapel of San Giovan Giuesppe della Croce, the patron saint of Ischia of vibrant religious fervour, who passed the last twelve years of his life at Santa Lucia al Monte. He died in the monastery and is buried there: his cell, still impregnated with his memories, has been faithfully preserved and can be visited. Evocative and important spaces from the ancient complex have been skilfully preserved, such as the oven where the bread was baked and the frescoed refectory that still seems to resound with the far-off echo of the prayers and readings that accompanied mealtimes. Here and there you will find fragments of frescoes, old majolica and decorations that testify to the place's artistic heritage. The property offers airport transfer (paying), baby-sitting service, banquet facilities, bar, concierge, conference facilities, disabled facilities, doctor on call, Internet access-high speed, laundry service, lift/ elevator, lobby, non smoking rooms, parking facilities-at cost, reception, restaurant, room service, safe deposit box, secretarial services, solarium and swimming pool-outdoor.

Date of Stay: October, 2006
We have stayed at this wonderful hotel once before and were not disappointed this time. Just wandering around the hotel and the roof garden is an experience in itself. The old convent has been sensitively restored with original features retained. The room was very comfortable, with a free minibar (nice touch) - the only surprising thing was the lack of storage space. Breakfast on the terrace is amazing with views over the whole of the city and Vesuvius. The restaurant is also excellent and good value. The surrounding area is very Neapolitan, fairly rough, but not without interest.

Date of Stay: January, 2007
We ate at the restaurant the first night we arrived and thoroughly enjoyed the venue and the food (great views over the city and bay with Versuvius in the background). They threw in a free starter which was delicious. Service was attentive (though the restaurant was not exactly crowded). Breakfasts were also good (especially the made-to-order omeletes). Although the location of the hotel was nothing special, it was very quiet in the rooms (which all enjoy great views). It was also nice to stay in a hotel with considerable character just a little way from the madness that is Naples centre. The hotel is reasonable well connected with public transport (between two funiculars).

A Fabulous hotel with breathtaking views (literally, watch out for the lift). Expensive for its out of town location but worth it if you do'nt mind the trek back, by tram-lift of cab (hold on!). The staff were very friendly our room was spacious & clean with excellent views of the bay of Naples.

My wife and I had a wonderful time staying in this hotel. It was a bit more than we budgeted for but it is a great place to stay. We had a good view of the city, the bay and Vesuvius. The rooms could not be any better, clean, spacious, more than what we actually needed. We felt spoiled. The breakfast selections were okay, we thought that the variety could have been more on the selections of food and that the quality could have been better given the price we paid but not horrible. Front desk staff very pleasant and helpful. Would definitely come back again. JL

Having booked accommodation over the internet before I was well aware that sometimes the description and actual offer often don't match but here we were really happy and pleasantly surprised as the hotel even surpassed the websites we had seen. The hotel is totally unique and memorable, the views are great, the staff really helpful and the price good. It is worth asking for a room with a balcony (as there are only 2) as they took this into account and we managed to get one, and also to check out the offers on their site which show special offers (for extra nights at low costs etc) We would recommend this hotel very highly!

We had an excellent time at the San Francesco al Monte. Our room was first class, with views across the Bay and of Vesuvius. The hospitallity was as stated hospitallity, and recharged daily. In the resturant we still enjoyed wonderful views and the choice for breakfast was good, however the dinner menu could have more Italian dishes rather than standard international hotel fare. The hotel location was good, with close proximity to the veniculare station, making it easy to decend to the centre of main part of town, the Castle, Royal Palace and Tour Bus, plus the fact that the 1 euro ticket also allows you to catch the local bus to the Railway Station, this made our trip to Pompeii equally easy. Overall we both rated our stay as excellent and will be recommending it to our freinds, and we ourselves will be returning very soon.

We enjoyed our 3 days' stay at the hotel, which is very interesting and full of history. It was also well kept, clean and comfortable. The staff were very helpful and friendly, espcially the recption staff. The location is a little out of the way, with no decent restaurents nearby.

Room location was just above restaurant. Quite noisy at times. TV has seen better times - some channels not received and handset not working well - TV was just too archaic.

Lovely hotel with a great location overlooking the Bay of Naples. Great renovation of an old monastry which provides a calming atmopshere away from the hectic life of Naples. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for. Good restaurant dining on the terrace for nightime views of the city. Definately to be recommended.

The hotel was absolutely superb. It is an old monastery which has been wonderfully transformed, managing to retain a lot of original features (including an authentic smell evocative of Anne Radcliffe novels). The room was very spacious (room number 514)and had views out across Naples and Vesuvius. The staff were very friendly, the breakfast was lovely, and the minibar complimentary. The only downside is the situation - if you don't want to eat in the hotel there isn't very much locally unless you like pizza.

My wife and me spent 4 days at this hotel, and we are recommending it to all our friends. It is placed on a hill, near to the city center (easily linked by the "Funicolare"), and the vue from the room and from the hotel public outdoor areas (restaurant / breakfast and swimming pool) is wonderful. The employees were very polite and gave us all the information we requested, concerning Naples and Capri, the monuments and all the services (including the private transfer coach that you can hire to get the airport, at the same rate than the ordinary cab service). Our room - at the end of 5th floor - was probably the largest we have ever had in a hotel, even if we did not book a suite: there was even too many space (also considering the double wardrobe) for only two people. The bathroom was absolutely excellent, and obviously very clean. Furthermore, and this was really the first time, the beverages in the fridge were complimentary. The hotel is an historical place, as specified in its site, but you have to go there to understand what it means: between the floors, you are going to discover plenty of secret places and rooms. It was absolutely unique and interesting. Finally, the rate (please notice that the Internet rate is about 40% lower than the official one) was not the lowest available in Naples, but it was surely lower than what you are going to pay in Italy for the hotels of this category. Considering luxury hotels, we think it is cheap.
