Where to stay in Caserta: areas, accommodation and practical tips

Where to stay in Caserta: the complete guide

Caserta is dominated by its Reggia, the largest Bourbon royal palace in the world, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with its immense park, monumental fountains and English Garden. But the city also offers the medieval hamlet of Casertavecchia on the hill, the Carolino Aqueduct (Ponti della Valle) and a strategic position for exploring Campania. Staying in Caserta allows you to visit the Royal Palace at leisure and discover a territory often overlooked.

Best areas to stay

City Centre — Royal Palace Area

The area immediately around the Reggia and the railway station (they are adjacent). 3-4 star hotels, B&Bs and apartments steps from the palace entrance. The most practical zone: leave your accommodation and you are in front of the Reggia. Corso Trieste offers shops and restaurants for the evening. Moderate prices.

Via Mazzini — Commercial Centre

The commercial area north of the Reggia, with the main avenues and city life. B&Bs, guesthouses and a few hotels. Livelier in the evening, with pizzerias and bars. 10 minutes on foot from the Reggia.

San Leucio

The 18th-century hamlet 3 km from the centre, famous for the Bourbon Royal Silk Site (UNESCO). A few B&Bs and agritourisms in a unique historic setting. Quiet and charming, perfect for those with a car.

Casertavecchia

The medieval hamlet on the hill 10 km from the centre, with its Romanesque Cathedral and stone lanes. Very few B&Bs and restaurants, a living nativity scene atmosphere. A car is essential, but the view over the plain is magnificent and the evening atmosphere magical.

Southern Zone — Towards Naples

Some hotels along the Naples road (Maddaloni, San Nicola la Strada) offer low prices with parking. Useful for those driving between Caserta and Naples.

Accommodation types

**Hotels near the Reggia** — The most convenient choice: modern or renovated properties, often with views of the royal park
**B&Bs in the centre** — Run by hospitable locals, with breakfast including pastiera, sfogliatella and Neapolitan coffee
**Apartments** — Excellent for families, with a kitchen to prepare fresh buffalo mozzarella bought that morning
**Agritourisms** — In the countryside toward the Volturno or on the hills toward Casertavecchia, with local dairy products
**Historic residences** — Rare but extraordinary: noble palazzi with 18th-century gardens

Budget tips

Caserta is very affordable compared to Naples: a double costs 30-40% less
There are no major seasonal price variations (the Reggia is visited year-round)
B&Bs in residential quarters (Centurano, Sala, Tredici) offer very low rates
Book Reggia tickets online in advance: you skip the queue and can plan your day better
Restaurants in the back streets are excellent and cost much less than tourist ones near the Reggia

Where to stay by traveller type

Royal Palace visitors

Station/Reggia area: arrive on foot in 2 minutes from the entrance. Early morning (opening at 8:30) is the best time to visit the royal apartments without crowds.

Couples

A B&B in Casertavecchia for a romantic evening in the medieval hamlet, or a historic residence in the centre to combine the Reggia and city life.

Families

Apartment in the Reggia area: the royal park with its fountains is a natural enormous playground. Children love the Great Waterfall and the English Garden.

Those exploring Campania

Caserta is a strategic base: Naples 40 minutes by train, Pompeii 1h, Amalfi Coast 1h30 by car. A hotel with parking in the southern zone maximises flexibility.

**Mid-range** (3-star hotel/quality B&B): €65-110
**High-end** (4-star hotel/historic residence): €120-200
