Hotels in Sicily

Excellent location close to restaurants, shops and just off historical district on a pedestrian street. Well kept hotel. We were in the residence , the older section. We had a large efficiency unit- clean but not renovated. We could not use the kitchen because we had taken the "room only " price - Still very good for the what we paid in Palermo.

check availabilty of city public facilities - we were disaappointed at many museum closures

The history of the hotel enhanced our visit, it was like being in a Palace. The food was good, rooms clean, modern yet retained the old world elegant feel that attracted us. I would love to stay there again.

We enjoyed our stay at the Villa Paradiso. The staff were friendly and helpful, and our room was entirely comfortable for the two days we were there. The hotel offered a fine breakfast buffet but the dining room was not open in February. This was no problem whatever as Taormina is well stocked with good places to eat. The hotel is within comfortable walking distance of everything one is likely to want to see or do in Taormina. We would certainly stay at the Villa Paradiso again.

The English of a couple of staff made communication occasionally troublesome for me, although they were extremely pleasant to deal with.

My wife and I always enjoy staying at the Hotel Nettuno when we are in Sicily on holiday. Nothing seems to be to much trouble from the very friendly staff and would have no problem in recommending the Hotel to our friends.

Large, spacious rooms in a modern style make this a comfortable and pleasant stay - but the place really comes to life with the rooftop bar/breakfast room with a view over Catania rooftops up to Etna! It's well worth the extra 10 Euros for the rooftop breakfast with freshy cooked food to order, and at night the place turns into a stylish and atmospheric cocktail bar serving tasty treats and a big cocktail menu. The view up to Etna is breathtaking. By the way, the regular breakfast downstairs is very good too. The staff were extremely helpful and accommodated some special requests for our honeymoon. The location is good, amidst high-class shops, near the HUGE local market, a short walk to the pleasant Villa Bellini park and not far from the hustle and bustle of the main piazza and town. All in all, a lovely bit of luxury to start our 2 week honeymoon and thoroughly recommended as an out of season bargain.
