I was also on the Ramblers trip with CarolinexxW and fully endorse her comments. I would make two further points: Whilst the hotel permitted us to pay our bar bills on credit card, despite pushing hard I was not given a satisfactory explanation as to why the transportation costs provided by the hotel had to be paid for in cash....

We have just returned (12th - 19th May 2012) from a Ramblers holiday staying at this hotel and using it as a base for some delightful walks around the area including Etna. I believe they (Ramblers) have been using this hotel for many years and are well established with the family owners who seem to do all the jobs including... More

I stayed at this hotel from 5 May - 12 May. It was a very warm friendly atmosphere in the hotel, the staff were efficient and helpful. The room was comfortable, spacious and adequate. I would have liked to have a bath after a hard day walking, but there was constant hot water in the shower and this is a... More

We stayed for five nights from Friday May 4th. The hotel was easy to find (once we had escaped from Catania) and we arrived at around 10pm - checked into our room 203 and then had a friendly drink in the hotel bar. We ate in the hotel on all five nights - the pizzeria being open on the Friday... More

Had a marvelous stay - helpful staff and good food. The walks were fabulous. The only problem was the size of the single room, which was very small. Do not understand why I had to pay a single supplement.

this was a very pleasant place to stay for a few days. The staff were highly welcoming, the hotel is well maintained and the food perfectly adequate for the non-gourmet. Unless you need luxury, highly recommended for the passing tourist...

Just returned from one of our best ever, value for money, holidays abroad thanks to a Hotel D’Orange and BA deal. We purposely avoided hiring a car and can most definitely confirm you can enjoy everything, and more, paying a lot less than the cost of staying in a three star Taormina Hotel. With the exception of a couple of... More

Great food and lots of it. I was very impressed at the willingness of the staff to help after heavy rain, drying our clothes and walking boots. Great base for walking around Mount Etna and also visiting Taormina, Catania and Siracusa.

We have just returned from a lovely stay with Guiseppe and his family. The food was plentiful and of high quality. Our room was comfortable and a good size and was very clean. Everything about this hotel was very friendly and hospitable and we couldn't fault it at all. The hotel is perfectly situated to take trips to Taormina, Syracuse... More

The owners could not have been more help-full and pleasant. After a very wet days walking they took our clothes, boots etc. to dry and returned them to us that evening and the following morning all nicely dry. Then they made suggestions of things to do on the next day of torrential rain. Buffer breakfast and a plentiful evening meal.... More
