“Cattle Car Crowd - Expensive Internet Access”

In short, we wouldn't go back. Noisy. This hotel is mainly used by European tour groups so there is little personal attention. The breakfast buffet is ample, but it is of lower quality food. We had a room next to the stairwell on the second (3rd U.S.) floor and the sound came up the stairwell from the ground floor on the metal girders and was annoying in our room. The room was gaily decorated, but there was plenty of knocked about paint visible. Because of the noise, room rate and high internet charges after 2 days we ended up moving to another hotel for an additional 6 days. Internet. We had tried to find out about the internet access before going there but I didn't see any info on the hotel website. When we got there I needed to do emails and some work and was shocked to find the fee for wireless access was the highest we have ever seen, so high as to make it worth while to find an internet cafe down the street. The clerk was embarrassed about the fee and said because it is so high almost no one uses it. The manager said it was beyond his control. Because I complained the manager did offer to let me use a desktop in the back office. Parking. If you have a car, parking can be a problem as it is only street parking with 10 or so spots reserved for the entire hotel.

“BEST LOCATED HOTEL IN GIARDINI NAXOS”

Hotel is located almost on the sandy beach and has fantastic views of Giardini Naxos, Taormina and on a clear day Mount Etna. Condition of room / front of property could do with a lick of paint, but restaurant and bar area's very well nice. We had seven days Bed & Breakfast, Breakfast was very good with plenty of choices.

Area recommendations
Would advise checking out the restaurants nearby all very good and reasonable with fantastic views and why not pop across the road to the Lido de Naxos where you can get you're afternoon coffee & cake!
Getting there
We took the Etnabus from the Airport to Giardini which takes aprox 1 hour, but only costs 5.50 euro's each, cheaper than taxi which would set you back 80.00 euro's! Train station is aprox 45 mins walking distance, but is ideal for trips to Catania or Messina.

“Great location, ok service.”

The hotel is rated as 4 star, however according to the services, the maintainance and the quality is rather 3 star. The spa facilities were not available due to refurbishments, so we could not try them. The location was perfect, great beach excess, from the balcony superb view. Good size room with en-suite, only shower, caused trouble with our little one's bath time. They were the only place during are stay, whom provided the baby cot (bed) for free. Free parking space are very limited apprx. 7 spaces for 200+ rooms! Reception staff were not too friendly, but the housekeepers were great and kind. The waiters could not wait to see your back. The restaurant could not provide baby high chair and the breakfast was boring for 6 days. We did not try other meals, so can't comment on those. Internet was payable, which is normally free at this standards.

Area recommendations
Taormina, Etna region is worth visiting.

“on the beach”

Other than the check in-which they eventually rectified, the stay was good. Front desk staff could ahve more maps on hand...they were out of many towns. Brakfast buffet was excellent. Parking which was included was sometimes not available....

Area recommendations
Giardini naxos, Taormina are lovely. Visit Messina,Catania, Siragusa and Etna on day trips.
When to go
only during the summer if you want CROWDS! Late spring and early fall are perfect.
Getting there
you gotta rent a car and be a brave driver. Italian roads are narrow and drivers aggressive.

“great view”

This hotel is located right on the ocean and we were given a room with a balcony overlooking the ocean. It is a large room and appeared clean. The breakfast was included and was very good. The only draw back was the mattresses. I could feel the springs on the bed. Otherwise everyting was great. Parking was free.

Traveller's tip
There are alot of nice restaurants walking distance from the hotel. Don't limit yourself to the hotel restaurant.

“in ottima posizione...ma non un 4 stelle!!!”

l'hotel si trova in ottima posizione, proprio davanti al lido di naxos...comodissimo per andare in spiaggia o per esplorare i dintorni della zona. Vicinissimo troverete ristoranti pizzerie bar gelaterie rosticcerie negozi e tutti i tipi di divertimento che una località di mare può offrire. la camera (vista mare con supplemento) era piccolissima e non in buone condizioni in particolare il bagno assolutamente da ristrutturare...per fortuna noi avevamo un bel terrazzo da cui si vedeva tutta la baia. la notte in estate si dorme con difficoltà perchè proprio sotto l'hotel c'è un lido-discoteca dove mettono musica ad altissimo volume fino all'alba!!!! La colazione non buonissima sia come varietà che come qualità. Assolutamente ingiustificate le 4 stelle!!!!!!!

“HOTEL SPORTING BAIA GIARDINI NAXOS.”

L'HOTEL E' VECCHIO E NECESSITA ASSOLUTAMENTE DI UNA CONSISTENTE RISTRUTTURAZIONE. NON C'E' PARCHEGGIO. LA CORTESIA DEL PERSONALE NON BASTA PURTROPPO A COMPENSARE LE STRUTTURE ORMAI DECISAMENTEOBSOLETE - BAGNI PICCOLI - SCARSITA' DI PARCHEGGIO. TV CON POCHI CANALI. SOLI I 6 CLASSICI + BBC NEWS.

“Schönes Hotel in gute Lage”

Schönes Hotel direkt am Strand. Ideale Lage für Ausflüge in die Umgebung-Taormina, Ätna, Syrakus... Viele Restaurants in der Nähe. Frühstück einfach, jeden Tag das Gleiche. Zimmer zur Strasse sehr laut.

Area:

Taormina, Italy: A balcony setting on Mount Tauro with a sweeping view of Sicily’s coastline and Mount Etna gives Taormina its lasting appeal. It is Sicily’s only truly international resort, much-favoured by celebrities. The old quarter’s steep, narrow alleys are filled with window boxes and painted pottery, and best explored on foot. Main sights are the classical remains and Renaissance palaces. The Greco-Roman theatre is still used for concerts and festivals.
