Good food.

Bedroom was lovely and had a lovely dinner in the hotel. Breakfast was always good.

The pool wasnt clean and the staff were not the most helpful at the desk. It was very difficult to get to and from the centre from the hotel.

Very good

Rooms are nicely decorated in the reception area and in the lobby room. The upper terrace on the second floor is extremely nice, beutiful view. If you don't want to park your car in their parking lot, you can leave it on the street next to the hotel location, where it's free. I liked that our towels were changed every day.

The breakfast was poor compared to other hotels I stayed at. The building on the outside looks like it would need a renovation.

Booked two rooms but they were quite different. One was great and other good. Since I made the booking I also should have been offered the larger room.

Two similar rooms would have been better.

Great Hotel

We have stayed here before and would again. It's a solid hotel with a nice bar and pool. The staff are friendly and breakfast offers a good selection with a lovely view. Location wise it is a little bit out of the city, you can walk into the center but it'll take maybe 30 minutes. There is a metro nearby too. That said the problem with the location is mainly walking back up to the hotel in the heat, none of this is a problem if you have a car of course.

The room we got had a very loud fridge, like extraordinarily loud. We fortunately had earplugs but if you don't then you probably would struggle to sleep.

Charming and nice hotel with friendly staff

The hotel is a charming property, with beautiful layout and traditional Italian details. Nice outdoor area. The staff is friendly and helpful

Its visible they try to cut cost. Some needs for refurbishing are due, and breakfast is three star level and with the same things put out over and over.

Superb

Perfect Villa, warm welcome, great base for visiting Catania and surrounding (Etna, Taormina, etc)

Outside city center, but a very nice villa, beautiful interior, with very nice personnel, a great hotel bar. Nice rooms, not very big but big enough. Good accommodation for going to Catania, Etna, Taormina. Small parking, so you have to leave your keys at the reception, so they can move the car if necessary, but no problem.

The swimming pool is coldddddd.
