“Presidenta Park”

We stayed at this Hotel for 3 nights.Like all hotels in Sicely getting to the hotel requires a drive up a winding narrow steet.A car is the best way to get there.It is a great location to get around that side of Sicely.The hotel is very much used by local business people.Every niht there was a convention with lots of people.If it quiet you want this is not the right place but it has great views and has a few stores across the street.Parking was free as was wifi .Room was clean but no a/c

“Think carefully”

Think carefully before staying at the President Park Hotel. I think I chose the wrong place for the time of year. On the plus side the hotel was clean and comfortable and the staff friendly and helpful (though don't speak much English, so you will need some basic Italian). Aci Castello has many second homes which in April were all shuttered up. The only people around were tradesmen getting ready for the summer. This meant there was very limited choice for eating out. The hotel is on a very steep hill and whilst it's only 20 mins to the town , (or if you go out of the back gate, 20 mins to Aci Trezza) it seems a lot more on the way back! There were a number of conferences on at the hotel - again perhaps due to the time of year. There didn't seem to be many buses to Catania. Etna was via an excursion, booked through the hotel who rang round for me.

Area recommendations
Etna was very interesting - I hadn't appreciated the need for a ski jacket in April! We were fortunate to find a company whose interest was geology so they were very informative. Whilst there wasn't much open (due to time of year) the guide commented that the place the locals go to for pizza is Aci Trezza.

“For Italy, great rooms!”

TIP: Hotel is much easier to find if one drives along the coast (SR114 from Catania airport) rather than going out to the highway (autostrada) and then coming back in. There are hotel signs all along the way pointing you in the right direction, but the left turn off this road is quite sudden & steep so keep an eye out once you're in AciTrezza. And ask for a room with a balcony! You'll have a wonderful view of the Bay and coastline. Unfortunately, although the hotel said they had wireless internet, it was quite expensive & could only be bought for 3 hour intervals. We enjoyed our week at this hotel although I must admit we were gone each day from 9:00am to 8:00pm! Sicily is incredibly beautiful! And definitely take the Mt. Etna tour. We don't usually do tours, preferring to trek ourselves, but I'm glad we went with the hotel recommendation- Acquaterra. It was 75 euros each for a full day, including a scrumptious homemade lunch at a Mt. Etna farm & winery. Although it was just my husband & I & the guide, I think that usually the tours are in groups. We just lucked out (I think). The hotel is an excellent location for driving to other parts of the island.

Area recommendations
Catania is a typical old city, but considering that it was covered completey by the Etna eruption of 2002, it's in pretty good shape. However, I would definitely spend time in the smaller coastside cities. AciCastello, AciTrezza (where this hotel is located on the hill above the water) are sweet little towns. Food is delicious just about anywhere you pick.
Must see
Taormina-do not park along the side, look instead for the Lungo Parchieggio signs. Park here and take a free shuttle up to the center of town. Walk back down to the lot. Although some might say this is too touristy, there's a reason why it's a popular destination. It's an awesome town built out of the side of a mountain overlooking the deep turquoise waters of the bay. Cefalu- On the north coast of the island to the east of Palermo. A lovely little seaside village. Agrigento- On the south coast of the island. One of the most awe-inspiring sights I've ever seen is the "Valley of the Temples." Absolutely amazing. Syracuse- also fantastic for ruin trekking. A bigger city but not walkable. After seeing the ruins, walk over the bridge to the small island of Ortigia.

“Hotel President Park”

L' albergo è difficile da raggiungere se non si ha un auto a disposizione. L'acqua non è potabile ma nessuno mi ha avvvisato di questo. Alle mie lamentele è stato risposto che è una cosa assolutamente normale. Non adatto a famiglie ma solo a gruppi.

“SCOMODO SE NON AUTOMINUTI”

NEL COMPLESSO L'HOTEL NON E' MALE,FORSE SAREBBERO PIU APPROPRIATE 3 STELLE PERO'. LA PULIZIA NELLE STANZE ERA MOLTO SUPERFICIALE,IN CERTI PUNTI VI ERA MOLTA POLVERE ED E' CAPITATO DI TROVARE LA SABBIA NELLA VASCA DA BAGNO,PERTANTO NON ERA NEANCHE STATA PULITA. ASSOLUTAMENTE DA SCONSILIARE SE NON AUTOMUNITI IN QUANTO FUORI MANO.

“President Park Hotel - posizione panoramica”

La posizione in cui si trova è molto bella, dalla collina si gode un'ottima vista sul mare, per chi non è provvisto di auto può essere un po' scomodo poichè dista circa un km. e mezzo dal centro di Acicastello. L'hotel è spazioso, la struttura è nuova, dotato di piscina ed il personale è molto cordiale e disponibile.

Other
Come consiglio vi suggerisco di noleggiare subito un auto quando arrivate all'aeroporto di Catania e di girarvi tutta la Sicilia in piena libertà!!!! Ne vale la pena!!!!

“Hotel President - ACI CASTELLO - Ottimo per rilassarsi”

Ottimo Hotel anche se un po' fuori mano e difficile da raggiungere a piedi. Ottimo se invece si raggiunge in auto. Ottima posizione, Ottima vista, Ottimo il confort

“e le 4 stelle?”

l'hotel e' in altura e fuori mano, per un negozio o ristorante bisogna scedere in paese. la stanza si presenta con impianto di climatizzazione non funzionante, la moquette di almeno 20 anni fa, il box doccia in pessime condizioni e con i miscelatori montati al contrario quindi acqua calda esce fredda e vice versa. le quatto stelle le avranno date 25 anni fa, ma adesso.... SCONSIGLIATO!!!

“Buonrapporto qualità prezzo, consigliato”

l'hotel è situato poco fuori dal paese, in alto su una collina difronte al mare. vista meravigliosa. personale cordiale e gentile, camera piccola ma confortevole con tutto quello che ci si attende da un hotel di questa categoria. colazione abbastanza varia ed abbondante. piccolissima la piscina, adatta ad un breve relax. consigliato, ma necesita un'auto per spostarsi. c'è comunque un'edicola per chi non vuole spostarsi! SODDISFATTO!

da non perdere il centro di Catania, a 5minuti di auto. pieno di localini e ristoranti di otima qualità

“hotel president park hotel”

come servizi, pulizia e cortesia davvero ottima. noi abbiamo alloggiato x 4 notti in camera superior pulitissima, cambio delle salviette tutti i giorni e soprattutto ottima la cena con un menu a doppia scelta. camerieri cordiali, simpatici e super gentili come il resto del personale. la posizione è piu che tranquilla, bisogna muoversi in auto o in moto x raggiungere il paese sottostante con diversi pub o le cittadine vicine.
