The hotel had extremely tired furniture and bathrooms, although ample space was a plus. The rooms were dirty, which was a downside. The service was very helpful overall, but the lack of smiles or acknowledgment throughout the stay was disappointing. The location offered stunning views and was close to bars, but the lack of outdoor seating for breakfast was a shame. The dining experience was delightful with a huge variety of foods. The facilities were satisfactory, enhancing the stay.

The hotel had spacious rooms with a dated and old-fashioned decor, yet offering ample space and a quiet atmosphere with beautiful sea views. The service was welcoming and charming, with particularly amazing and friendly staff available all day. The location, although with magnificent views and close to bars, lacked outdoor breakfast seating. The dining experience was more than adequate with a variety of buffet selections, including delicious pastries. The facilities included beautiful grounds and gardens to explore.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms offered a lovely view of Etna from a small Juliet balcony, but they were very noisy. I struggled to get the TV to work, which was frustrating. However, having a balcony was a plus.

My stay at the hotel was truly exceptional. The rooms were incredibly quiet and spacious, located at the end of the corridor, ensuring a peaceful atmosphere. The classical style furniture and daily welcoming biscuits added a touch of charm. The service was a mix of pleasant and grumpy experiences, with some staff members being friendly and efficient while others lacked helpfulness. The location, especially the pool area, offered breathtaking views over the bay and beyond. The dining experience, although somewhat lacking in novelty, provided a varied and plentiful selection of options. Overall, a great value for the money with some minor downsides in service.

I loved the hotel as it offered stunning views of the Mediterranean on one side and the city on the other. The room was very comfortable, although some aspects like the plastic patio furniture and the issue with the toilet could be improved. Unfortunately, the swimming pool was closed due to what I was told was 'too cold' weather.
