Fairly good castle to see, visually from outside looks good, inner courtyard is ok. Castle itself is fairly basic and doesn’t really have a WOW factor for me. Some of the rooms Set up as a museum with underwhelming art work. Not expensive to see for me not a must do in Naples.

Getting into this place is hard work! Online it isn't clear that you have to book a time slot to enter but this is definitely best otherwise you'll be taking a chance getting in. When we arrived just before 14.30 lots of people milling around and then staff came out and split us into those with prebooked tickets and those without. Just after we joined the queue they started turning everyone away saying they were full. The price of entrance is €6 but this only gets you into the museum and Chapel. Honestly these are not worth it. The chapel has an art exhibition in and the museum is full of religious art. These took us about 10 mins to look at. So for €10 you can join the tour and see the rest of the castle. As the tour was in Italian we had a discount of €5. We decided to take the tour and managed to follow some of it. I'm not really sure it would be worth €10 each to do this even if we did understand it all. There are lots of better places to go in Naples and I wouldn't really bother.

Fantastic castle. Bought to life by the English tour guide. Would definitely recommend the additional 10 euros for the tour. The tour allows VIP access to areas you cannot get to with the standard entry. Make sure you book you time slot in advance. Parts we liked were the surprise under the floor and seeing the crocodile pit.

Nice Castle to visit in the middle of Napoli. Just the administration (again ...) is a little complicated. Entrance tickets can be booked only online - the tour inside with the guide can be booked only inside the castle and to be paid by cash... this gives you the opportunity to see the museum, the castle and the tour will allow you to go on the top on the stairs which are about 6 floors (even though we saw that the elevator was functioning well). The tour is highly recommended and our guide was great!

This imposing structure is worth the look. You can pay for either self-guided tours or guided tours. I went with guided to better understand the history of this as well as gaining access to part the self-guided don't see. Fascinating to see the archaeology under the castle grounds, complete with skeletons. There is a museum section with displays brought in that have nothing to do with the castle. There is another section with ancient art work.

I was born in Naples and I visited Castel Nuovo (Maschio Angioino) multiple times. They now offer a tour for €10 which includes a guided tour. In this tour we saw: the castle museum, the Roman ruins below the castle, the secret passageway, the throne room, the terrace at the top of the castle, the prisons. The tour is offered either in English or Italian. We took the Italian one and our guide Valeria was amazing. She gave us so much info but always kept the tour funny and interactive. As I visited the castle many times as a kid or a teenager, but the way the tour is organized today makes it so much better. Definitely something to have on your list when visiting Naples.

Being a fan of castles, I was quite excited by the presence of a medieval castle right in the heart of Naples. The castle’s exterior structure, with its eye-catching 5 cylindrical towers, is certainly impressive. But my joy was short-lived as we entered the castle after paying a total of €11 comprising entry and guided tour fees (discounted from €16 as the guided tour in English was cancelled and we have to follow an Italian guide). Notwithstanding that I did not understand the tour guide, the atmosphere in the internal courtyard was filled with loud music and emceeing from a kids event being held there, which certainly took away the novelty of my visit. We were brought to the Palatine Chapel, Throne Room and top of the rampart for views of the surrounding Port of Naples, and self-explored the underground prison and the Armoury Hall to see the Roman ruins under the glass floor. Overall, I was expecting to see more of the preserved interiors of the castle, so what I got to see was definitely underwhelming.

This is a medieval castle located in front of Piazza Municipio and the city hall in central Naples. It is also known as Maschio Angioino. The port is also nearby. We started our Amalfi tour from the port and noticed this imposing castle in a scenic location. This castle was first erected in 1279, so of historical significance.
