Hotel Description

In the magical scenery, including the wonderful "Reggia di Portici", the '"Villa dei Papiri" and the sea, rises Villa Signorini, a real gem of eighteenth-century architecture. The attention to detail and the restoration of historic elements such as murals, furniture, flooring and fixtures operated under the close supervision of the Superintendency for the Environmental and Architectural than for the Artistic and Historical for Ente Vesuvian Villas and make Villa Signorini one of the most valuable and exclusive Vesuvian villas where you can breathe the history that the same building he lived in centuries.
The harmony of the spaces of this enchanted place amid frescoes high school and embroideries of lava give the structure a strong sense of hospitality, enhanced by the recent opening of a four-star Hotel with suites and rooms in perfect harmony with the surrounding environment.
The care and attention to the furniture enhances the prestige of the entire structure, transforming the sense of hospitality in the "Art of Receiving".
The building currently known as "Villa Signorini" lies on the border between the towns of Portici and Ercolano along the Via Roma, Via already Cecere, which once led from the main course, the famous Golden Mile, to the sea. It is surrounded on three sides by a large garden, among the few of Vesuvian villas to be handed down to us intact, if the extension is not in morphology. The garden is formally divided into tripod: a central, strictly decorative backdrop of the building, and two lateral, which was the old farm outbuildings of the house, as witnessed by notary lefonti.

The house has miraculously preserved its prerogatives Environmental behind his garden adjoins the forest of Portici, while the front, the view sweeps to the horizon on the ruins of Herculaneum, overcoming the bounded area that covers the "Villa of the Papyri "downstream gaze embraces the entire Gulf of Naples from Punta Campanella to Capo Posillipo, in the view is dominated by Mount Vesuvius and the palace. The historical research on the building have been made complex by the fact that, because of the tax exemption that extended from Naples to Portici next to the centers, there was no land (this privilege was abolished in 18 77 by the state unit).

Without documentary difonti certain fundamental instrument has been the study of cartographic documents, especially the soles of the Duke of Noja and that of Geri, who appears in the villa and are, therefore, the term ante quem for its construction (half of the eighteenth century.).

Even the attribution is uncertain. In the absence of documentary sources it is stylistically attributed to 'architect Domenico Antonio Vaccaro, also very active in the area, adhering to this proposal Roberto Pane. The first owner of the villa, that Don Andrea Alfano there is no certain information. During the French decade, in 1809 the formation of a provisional register Giovanbattista Cirelli us know the owner of the house and country estate attached to it. Subsequently, the villa passed to Louis L'Aquila Gaetani d'Aragona, who died in 1856, left this property to their children. In 1884, the asset is sold to Charles Prince of Brancia Apricerna. At his death his property passed to his wife and his children. In 1911 the widow of the Prince of Ia 'Apricerna which in 1903 had entered into full possession of the property, sells the villa and surrounding land to Paolo Signorini, the owner of what will become the largest food processing industry of the south. It was Paolo Signorini, in transforming the building into your home to determine the major changes that we see today, all, however, of low relief, with the exception of two flights of stairs that connect the concrete floor of the terrace with the garden, marking strongly façade postica. These elements of floral taste that blended environment with charming rococo style prevalent (we refer to closures of wrought iron and glass loggia overlooking the garden, with stucco decorations and paper and some of the main floor interior doors made of wood) .

Signorini Paul died in the early sixties and left to his heirs the building. This was inhabited until 1980. After November 23 this year due to the earthquake, the floor was evacuated and remained occupied only the ground floor rooms and the garden for years but was entirely occupied by a nursery that used for the production and sale. The earthquake led, fortunately, static major damage to the building, at least not as easily as it led to the abandonment lasted a decade. Massive infiltration of water from the roof damaged, in fact, heavily decorating the ceilings of the main floor.

At the beginning of this decade the property was alienated by the heirs Signorini and after the restoration, the company that manages the villa after centuries of jealous of the building closed to the public has made it a public use facility for cultural events and entertainment , feasts and ceremonies be visited by appointment.
