Location
Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had beautiful rooms, despite some issues like vibrations and leaks. It was a cheap stay amidst a flight cancellation to Venice, but the disappointment came from overlooking the bins at the back. The service was a mix of friendly and helpful staff but with instances of lies. The location offered relaxation and a beachfront experience, although it felt deserted. The dining was satisfactory but overpriced. Overall, it was a decent stay with notable ups and downs.
The hotel rooms were spacious, clean, and functional, making it totally okay for a one-night stay. However, they were cold with very cold floors, and the ambiance reeked of wet old towels. The service was pleasant and helpful, especially the very friendly and welcoming staff. The location was good if you were looking to spend time by the beach and relax. The dining experience was okay but could have been better without the sausages cut into tiny pieces. The facilities were decent overall.
The hotel offers a nice stay with rooms that are clean and comfortable, albeit a bit dated in terms of furniture. The breathtaking view of smoking Mt Etna from the terrace adds a special touch. The breakfast is satisfying, yet there is room for improvement. The service provided is friendly, but could benefit from better training. The location is ideal for exploring the eastern side of the island, though service at the pool area can be slow. Dining options are average, not meeting 5-star expectations. Overall, a good choice for a convenient stay close to Catania airport and the beach.
The hotel is located in a great spot, close to the beach and with beautiful rooms. The service provided was friendly and helpful. However, the musty smell in the room was a downside. The location is perfect for beach lovers and those with a car. Dining was pricey, but the atmosphere was enjoyable.
The hotel was not up to par with a 5-star experience. The rooms were outdated with old bedding and towels, resembling more of a 2-3 star airport hotel. The service, while friendly, lacked the extra effort seen in true 5-star establishments. The location was convenient for a late-night arrival but not without its drawbacks. The dining options were average at best, with limited variety in the buffet.
The hotel is located near the beach and the airport, making it convenient for travelers who want easy access to both. The rooms are cozy but could use some improvements, like better WiFi and functioning air conditioning. The service was helpful overall, especially for English-speaking guests. The location offers a mix of nice surroundings but also some areas that need maintenance. The hotel facilities are adequate, although there is room for enhancement.
