Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers lovely views of the sea and Mt. Etna, with spectacular views of ancient Greek temples. Rooms, however, are unexpectedly less beautiful compared to the gardens and dining areas, though they are practical with shuttered windows providing ample light.
I stayed at a lovely hotel steeped in history and nestled in beautiful gardens. The rooms, although a little dark, were cozy with shutters to let in plenty of light. The service was exceptional, with helpful staff willing to assist with any needs. The location offered stunning views of the Valley of the Temples, perfect for a relaxing day on the patio. The dining experience was delightful, especially the freshly squeezed orange juice. Overall, a charming stay with some room for modernization.
The hotel provides a stunning view of the Temples in the distance and overlooks a large valley and hills, offering a peaceful atmosphere. The breakfast area has only one small window, limiting the view. The service is mixed, with helpful gestures like escorting us to the top of the tower but some staff appearing untrained or arrogant. The location near the Temples is exceptional, perfect for those seeking a quiet spot close to the valley. Dining options are varied and satisfying, with freshly baked goods available. The facilities are well-maintained, catering to guests' needs.
I had a great stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, ideal after a long day exploring under the hot sun. The location offered a beautiful view of the temples area across the valley and hills, but it was a bit far out. The service was lovely, and the staff, especially Felicia, were friendly and provided great advice. The dining experience was enjoyable, with a variety of options to satisfy different tastes.
The hotel is a hidden gem with a stunning garden and temple views but lacks modern rooms with a stand-up shower. The service is hit or miss, ranging from unfriendly to exceptionally accommodating. The location is ideal for a peaceful getaway near the temples, despite the dusty non-paved road. Dining options vary, from delightful homemade pastries to disappointing meals, and the facilities are basic yet adequate.
The hotel offers breathtaking views of the temples area across the large valley and hills, although the rooms may not be as visually stunning as the gardens and dining areas. Despite being basic, they are still comfortable. The remote location may not be ideal for some travelers, but it has its charm.
