The hotel is located in a convenient spot near the main pedestrian area of the town, making it easy for guests to explore the shops and restaurants. Additionally, it offers stunning views of the surrounding coast, countryside, and possibly even Mount Etna. The hotel's gardens provide lovely, shady areas where guests can relax.

Some guests have mentioned that the furnishings in the rooms are a bit outdated and could use some modernization.

United Kingdom, February 2023

My partner and I had a lovely romantic escape. The hotel had stunning views with a beautiful pool and gardens. The staff was friendly and helpful in regards to tourist attractions in the area. The breakfast was enjoyable with a variety of options to choose from.

Our room was quite outdated with worn-out decor and our bathroom needed renovation. The pool was not cleaned regularly and had a few dead insects floating around.
