Riverwalk al Castello Indipendent Apartments Overview

Look, I’ll be honest with you – when I first heard about Riverwalk al Castello Indipendent Apartments, I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect from the name alone. But you know what? Sometimes the places with the most elaborate names turn out to be real gems, and this one definitely surprised me in the best way possible. These aren’t your typical cookie-cutter hotel rooms – we’re talking about proper apartments where you can actually spread out and live like a normal human being for a while. The whole setup feels refreshingly independent (hence the name, I guess), and there’s something really appealing about having your own space without sacrificing that travel experience you’re after.

What really got me was how well-maintained everything felt despite being a 3-star property. I mean, the 8.8 rating isn’t just for show – you can tell they actually care about the details here. The apartments themselves have this lived-in quality that makes you feel settled almost immediately, which is honestly rare when you’re bouncing around different cities. The kitchenettes are actually functional (not just for show like some places), and I found myself making coffee in the mornings instead of hunting down cafes right away – though let’s be real, exploring local coffee spots is half the fun of traveling. The castello reference in the name hints at some serious history in the area, and you can sort of feel that old-world charm seeping through, even in a more modern apartment setting.

Here’s the thing that really sold me on this place – it strikes that perfect balance between giving you independence and still feeling like you’re getting proper hospitality. The staff knows what they’re doing without being overly intrusive, and honestly, after staying in places where they either ignore you completely or hover around constantly, this felt just right. You’ll have space to do your own thing, but you’re not left wondering who to call if something goes sideways. The whole experience feels authentic rather than manufactured, which I think comes from them focusing on being good at what they do instead of trying to be everything to everyone. If you’re the type who likes having your own little temporary home base while exploring somewhere new – and let’s face it, who doesn’t appreciate having actual counter space and a proper fridge – this place gets it right without overthinking it.

Reviews of Riverwalk al Castello Indipendent Apartments

  • Julie from Australia – 7 November 2024 (9/10)

    Wonderful spacious well appointed apartment, in a great location with a lovely walk along the river to the city.

    What could be improved: Nothing

  • Máirtín from United Kingdom – 3 October 2024 (9/10)

    The studio is exceptionally clean. The location is excellent and has some great restaurants and pubs in the vicinity – Vesuvio has great pizza! There is a great square / piazza near Basilica di San Zeno Maggiore church (3 minute walk).

    What could be improved: There was some noise from neighbours above late at night (washing machine) but I am a light sleeper.

  • Agne from Lithuania – 30 April 2024 (9/10)

    Apartments is clean and very comfortable. It was ideal for us as a small family group.
    Location is beautiful, and very convenient.

  • Ionescu from Romania – 18 December 2023 (8/10)

    1. Good location, close to the train station, certain tourist attractions, and stores (lidl).
    2. Easy self check-in and check-out.

    What could be improved: 1. No TV. Not even thought to look in the description for that because I find it, in a way, mandatory. It's the first time I stay in a place with no TV.
    2. The oven was really, really dirty…I wouldn't have used it if I had previously checked it to see how it looked, but I already had a frozen pizza bought.
