The hotel is very close to the Herculaneum ruins and in between two train stations. The breakfast was simple, but perfect for our needs. The staff here was amazing, they helped us find a bus to Vesuvio, let us store our bags, and helped us get our luggage up and down the stairs with the maintenance elevator. The little sitting area outside is very cute.

We hated this place and moved to another b&b in the end. The room DID NOT reflect the photos on Expedia. The room was tiny. The patio area had broken furniture and the plants surrounding each patio were dead. An absolute dump

We enjoyed our stay at Ruins BnB. It was the perfect spot to unwind for two days and see Mt. Vesuvius and Pompeii. Nice free breakfast, and very cute common area.
The area was quiet. Not much to do in the evening, but it was perfect for two nights.

Located right across the street from Herculaneum. Just a 10 minute walk down hill from the train station. Nice restaurants nearby. Staff was very helpful and room was clean. We had a small balcony and the hotel had a nice terrace area where we relaxed and ate our take away lunches. Breakfast very good.

The room was adequate for our requirements; the staff were helpful; the room was cleaned and towels relaced daily (thank you). The only issues were that the hot water was very hit and miss; the bed was awful (you heard everyone in the place if they turned over during the night); you could hear conversations from other rooms quite clearly (I must mention that I'm partially deaf).
However, I did not choose for and pay for luxury, I chose for proximity to Herculaneum and public transport links and for this, it was perfect.

It is in a great location opposite Herculaneum ruins and at the bottom of the high street with lots of restaurants and shops and only 15 minutes walk to a volcanic beach. Pompeii also Naples accessible by train just watch train times stopping at Herculaneum as they’re infrequent. Staff were very friendly and helpful and spoke English. The roof terrace was lovely and relaxing. Breakfast was simple but sufficient (would have liked some fruit.) The room was spotlessly clean - there are electric shutters which we didn’t find till the last day! Air con and excellent Wi-Fi throughout.

Literally across the street from archway entrance to Herculaneum (not ticket office- if taking taxi make sure they know otherwise they drop you at ticket office). Entrance to B&B is same as Hotel Herculaneum so a little confusing the first time. Very walkable to Vesuvius tour, train to Naples & Pompeii, and restaurants. Staff extremely helpful and rooms are very clean. Would stay here again

A lovely stay
A fantastic little hotel. Perfect location to explore the sights around the coast (train). Ercolano itself very small, quiet, and Italian.
Hotel very clean and relatively spacious room for three adults too.
Staff willing to support with anything asked.
Breakfast was great for setting you up for the day and table service was offered for coffees.

Comfortable place to stay for Pompei
It was easy to access from the local train from Naples and a 6 block walk. Ercolano is a nice little town and right across the street from an entrance to the Heracleum. The breakfast had a lot of choices. The train runs from there to Pompei as well as to Naples.

Great B&B Experience
The B&B was very conveniently located, right across the street from the Ercolano ruins. The room was large and very clean. Luca was wonderful and explained everything perfectly. We couldn’t be happier with the stay.
