Plana Hotel

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.

Plana Hotel is worth booking if you drive and want the best-rated hotel among the 9 we compared in Caserta, at a price below our Best Value pick. Skip it if you want spa or pool facilities on site, as none are listed here.

We may earn a commission if you book. It never changes our pick.

Who it suits and who should skip it

The Plana is a 4-star hotel at Via Domenico Mondo 69. It suits road-trippers above all. Guests like that it is close to the highway exit and the Royal Palace, and the property lists free parking.

With 9.0 out of 10 from 710 reviews, it has the highest guest score of our three Caserta picks. The property also lists free Wi-Fi, air conditioning and a garden.

If you want a gym, pool or spa, look at our Best Value pick instead, since none of those are listed for the Plana. Travellers without a car should also check how they will reach the town centre, as the location score is 8.1, the lowest of our three picks.

Location and getting around

Guests describe the location as convenient for drivers, near the highway exit and the Royal Palace. We have no measured distance to the palace, so check the route on a map.

The two sights in our data are a long way off. The Arch of Hadrian in Capua is about 6 km away, roughly 75 minutes on foot. Sant'Angelo in Formis is about 7.4 km, around 93 minutes. These are straight-line estimates. Both are far, so plan on a car, a taxi or public transport.

The location score of 8.1 out of 10 suggests this is a better base for drivers than for people who want to walk everywhere.

What guests say

Breakfast is the most praised feature: an abundant buffet with a wide variety of fresh sweet and savoury items. The listed styles are Italian, gluten-free and buffet.

Location gets praise too, though mainly from people arriving by car.

On the downside, the bathroom draws small complaints. Guests describe bathrooms as spacious, with hydromassage tubs, but some noted limited shelf space or a lack of soap. Room size beyond that, 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 €127.50 per night, about €255 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.

Here the Luxury pick is not the most expensive. Grand Hotel Vanvitelli, our Best Value pick, was €131 per night with a score of 8.9. Hotel Bruman, our Budget pick, was €75.50 per night with a score of 8.2. All three are 4-star. The Plana gives you the top guest score for slightly less than Vanvitelli, but without the spa, pool and gym that Vanvitelli lists.

Why it made our top 3

We compared 9 eligible hotels in Caserta. For the Luxury slot, five-star hotels come first, and a four-star can only take it with a score of at least 8.5. The Plana scores 9.0 and shares the top review-score position of the sample, so it clears that bar easily.

Before you book

Confirm whether breakfast is included in your rate. If you need specific toiletries, bring your own, given the comments about soap. Check that parking is available for your dates. Ask about noise and room size, which have not been assessed.
