Grand Hotel Vanvitelli
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Book Grand Hotel Vanvitelli if you want a well-reviewed 4-star with a spa, pool, gym and restaurant, backed by more guest reviews than any of our other Caserta picks. Think twice if you expected the pool and spa in the room rate, because guests say they cost extra.

This 4-star on Viale Carlo III suits travellers who want facilities on site. The property lists a gym, a spa, a pool, a restaurant, family rooms, a garden, free Wi-Fi and air conditioning. Pets are also tagged as accepted, so confirm the conditions if you bring one.
The guest score is 8.9 out of 10 from 3,642 reviews. That is by far the largest review count of our three Caserta picks, so the score is well supported.
Skip it if you want everything included. Guests find the rates reasonable but point out that the pool and spa require an additional fee. Travellers who mainly want to walk out of the door into the town centre may also prefer one of our other picks, which score higher on location.
Location and getting around
The address is Viale Carlo III. The location score is 8.5 out of 10, the lowest of our three Caserta picks, though still good.
The two sights in our data are far from here. The Arch of Hadrian in Capua is about 8.3 km away, roughly 104 minutes on foot. Sant'Angelo in Formis is about 10.6 km, around 133 minutes. These are straight-line estimates, and both are too far to walk. You will need public transport, a taxi or a car.
Parking is not listed among this hotel's facilities in our data. If you are driving, ask the hotel about parking and any charge.
What guests say
Staff get consistent praise: a professional, kind and helpful team that gives a warm welcome. Breakfast is the other highlight. Guests describe an abundant buffet with a wide range of sweet and savoury options. The listed styles are continental, gluten-free and buffet, which is useful if you avoid gluten.
The complaint is about value. Rates are seen as reasonable, but the pool and spa carry an extra fee, which some guests did not expect.
Room size, noise, renovation condition and cancellation terms have not been assessed.
Price and how it compares with our other picks
For 10 to 12 November 2026, 2 adults and one room, the reference price seen was €131 per night, about €262 for 2 nights. The sample median was €119 per night. These are reference prices seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026, not live quotes, so check today's price for your dates.
Our Luxury pick, Plana Hotel, came in slightly cheaper at €127.50 per night with a score of 9.0. Our Budget pick, Hotel Bruman, was €75.50 per night with a score of 8.2. All three are 4-star. Vanvitelli's case rests on its facilities and its 3,642 reviews rather than on price: the spa, pool and gym are listed here and not at Plana, though they cost extra.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 9 eligible hotels in Caserta. Grand Hotel Vanvitelli shares the second review-score position in that sample. Our Best Value slot weighs guest score, number of reviews and reference price together, so it is not necessarily the cheapest. A high score from such a large number of reviews carried it into the slot.
Before you book
Ask for the current pool and spa fees and opening times for your dates. Confirm whether breakfast is in your rate. Check parking if you drive, and the pet policy if you travel with an animal. Ask about room size and noise, which have not been assessed.
