Traveler reviews

  • Charlotte Bae

    ★★★★★a year ago

    Madre Napoli was such a pleasant surprise. I really enjoyed the space and the installations—they were well thought out, and I got to discover artists I’d never heard of before. The best part was that it wasn’t crowded, so my husband and I could take our time and enjoy each exhibit at our own pace. Definitely a cool spot to visit in Naples.

    Great spot to see some contemporary art. Not as intense as lots of the religious things in Italy. Had a coffee in their cafe afterwards and looked at some of the art books. Well worth a visit
