Practicalities
Benevento is roughly 60km from Naples, and buses run roughly every two hours from Piazza Garibaldi - an hour-and-a-half trip. Trains stop down the hill from the centre and are in any case slower and more infrequent. Benevento is easily seen on a day excursion and there’s no need to stay , but if you’re actuation on easterly to Fóggia and Puglia (to which there are regular train connections), or if you get stuck, the Genova , at Viale Principe di Napoli 130 (tel 0824.42.926; up to L60,000/¬30.99), is an adequate hotel. For food , if you’re just here for the day you’re likely to be content with the snacks, pizza and tavola calda -style dishes at Pizzeria Romana , next door to the cathedral on the corner of Via Carlo Torre (no closing day). For evening intake there are adequate restaurants dotted on and around the main Corso Garibaldi.
