Everything was great - staff were super friendly and accommodating. The property is beautiful and centrally located. Breakfast in the morning was delicious. Few minute walk to all the bars, restaurants and the tram that takes you to the beaches. Room is spacious but we wish there were a dresser with drawers. Highly recommend.

Located just outside Messina Gate, location is quiet but quick access to Corso and not far from funicular. Attentive, friendly staff. Nice breakfast on the roof level. Hotel has a Michelin 2 star restaurant (which we did not dine at-- didn't realize prior to check -in and we had other plans). Recommend highly!

Wonderful hotel, beautiful location and the staff could not have been nicer. Breakfast on the terrace each morning was amazing. The staff organized a private trip to Mt. Etna for us which worked out great. Would highly recommend this hotel.

This is one of the most beautiful hotels in the world. It is extremely private as they only have 24 rooms and you need a key to even access the property in any way. The rooms are comfortable, well designed, beautiful and enjoyable. The service is special. There is a rooftop restaurant for breakfast which provides beautiful views of the ocean and surrounding area. Food at breakfast is great. Overall, I rank this as one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. I highly recommend it if you can afford it.
