A stroll through the scenic architecture of Chiaia

Let Marco Giuliano, the concierge of the Grand Hotel Parker's, who is proud of his 'scugnizza' childhood followed by a long experience in the great London hotels, accompany you to discover the architectural secrets of the Chiaia district, starting with Palazzo Leonetti on Via dei Mille designed by Giulio Ulisse Arata, who a few metres further on also designed Palazzo Mannajuolo, famous for its helicoidal staircase that also appeared in the film 'Napoli Velata'. Palazzo Caravita Sanchez de Leon and Palazzo Miranda or Medici di Ottajano boast equally scenic courtyards, while Palazzo Cellamare, founded in the 16th century, in addition to the uniqueness of its geometric façade, conceals a hidden garden beyond the portal. This architectural stroll, which also includes Villa Pignatelli with its sumptuous salons and the exhibition hall on the first floor where an exhibition dedicated to Banksy and Andy Warhol is now on display, and the curiosities about the art of making umbrellas for excellent users recounted by artisan Mario Talarico, concludes by drinking 'na tazzulella 'café at the Bar del Professore and enjoying it with hazelnut cream in Piazza Trieste e Trento
