However, Salerno is quickly becoming a destination for relaxation and indulging in Mediterranean charms.

Along the Salerno coast, visitors will find many luxurious hotels offering services like spas, fine dining and pampering. There are many terraced
restaurants where you can enjoy a gourmet Italian meal while looking out into the Mediterranean. Salerno’s Old Town recently has undergone a major facelift
making it now one of Europe’s most well preserved historical centers. You won’t want to miss the peaceful Salerno Cathedral or the Villa Communale, which is a
literal green oasis in the heart of the city.

While Salerno itself is worth seeing, most visitors come to the city because of its choice destination for day trips. It is just a short ride to visit the
impressive archeological site at Pompeii. With a car rental, visitors can head out to the Amalfi Coast which is one of the most stunning drives worldwide.

With your Salerno car rental, you will be able to
take in the view as you drive along the Tyrrhenian Sea. If you head towards the
peninsula of Castellammare di Stabia, you will be able to take in some of the
beauties of Italy which are a bit off the beaten path.

When you rent auto in Salerno, you will be able to reach Pompeii in just about
30 minutes. This beats sitting in a bus with hoards of other sweaty tourists,
especially in the hot summer months. If you keep going a north in your Salerno
auto rental, you will quickly arrive in Naples. Along the way, you can see
Mount Vesuvius looming overhead from the highway. Many of the hotels even offer
free parking for it you rent auto in Salerno. Since Salerno auto rentals start
out at just about $40 per day, it is well worth it to give yourself the freedom
of mobility on your holiday.

Renting apartments has
become increasingly more popular now that even the most internet-impaired
Italians can easily make their own websites promoting their Salerno
accommodation. Apartments for rent in Salerno tend to be in the old town or
immediate surroundings and offer full amenities. That means you can save a lot
of money on your Salerno vacation by eating some meals at home. Not to mention
that the price of apartments for rent in Salerno are usually much cheaper than
the hotel rooms.

It is hard to get a feel of what an apartment for rent in Salerno is like
through the internet. Photos don’t always show the true size of an apartment
rental nor will they show you the surrounding area. If there is a neighbor in
the next apartment over who has a screaming baby, you might not know until you
get there! That is why it is really important to read reviews about apartments
for rent in Salerno. If you can, contact the owner directly and ask for the
emails of guests who stayed there.

It is only 50 meters from the sea but
you don’t even need to leave the grounds in order to relax. There is a pool and
an exquisite view of the sea right from the Salerno hotel. Hotel Olimpico also
has one of the kindest staff you will meet and full services like a free
shuttle system and breakfast included – all for about $100 a night for a double
room.

The Novotel Salerno Est Arechi hotel in Salerno is a bit down from the city
center but makes up for this with its location right on the coast. The rooms
are spacious and have a clean, modern design to them. Considering that this is
a 4 star Salerno hotel, rooms are cheap at just about $100 per night. If you
would like a more spacious room (a rarity in Salerno hotels), then the Hotel
Centro Congressi Polo Nautico is a good choice. The Salerno hotel has its own
beach. You will enjoy eating dinner on the terrace in the restaurant which
offers fantastic views of the sea. The junior suites also have private terraces
with romantic views. Though a bit away from the old town area, there are many
nice places to stroll around the hotel.

The Hotel Villaggio Copacabana is more like your own private relaxation club
than a hotel. The rooms are set up apartment style on the sprawling, lush green
grounds complete with palm trees and a pool. Though not directly on the beach,
this Salerno hotel is just a short walk from the old town and beach.
Considering all that it offers, it is one of the most reasonable Salerno
hotels

If you want to get away from the crowds but still want the luxury of a
resort, then you should head down the coast a bit.

There are also many smaller Salerno accommodations located in the heart of the
old town. These locations are ideal for visitors who plan on doing a lot of
sightseeing rather than just relaxing on the beach. In the old town and the
immediate surroundings, you will also find many bed and breakfast Salerno
accommodations. Though lacking the grandeur of the Salerno resorts, these bed
and breakfasts have a cozy feel and the home-style meals trump what even the
resort chefs are cooking up.

If you plan on spending more than a few days in Salerno and are renting a car,
then you might want to consider a holiday house. These are perfect for couples
or families and usually include full amenities. This type of Salerno
accommodation will give you a slice of local life while you relax in the
Italian coastal paradise.
