Beautiful
Beautiful property, staff, service. Everyone so friendly and welcoming. We only ate in the bar as the restaurant menus did not appeal - food and drink were good here but rather over-priced. Amazing views of the sea, coastline and mount Etna. Great to have a heated swimming pool, although it was closed until 10am so disappointed we couldn’t have a pre-breakfast swim. Very enjoyable stay overall. Thankyou to all the wonderful staff!

This property should be ranked 10 as far as we are concerned. The staff went over and beyond. We hated leaving them. The property was exceptional and all you would expect from a five star hotel. There is nothing we could have done to improve our stay. They even had little going away gifts forus. We loved it

The Best Place to Stay in Sicily
Grand Hotel Timeo is sensational. Belmond Hotel group is like no other. The service, rooms, attention to details. The upgrade to a nicer room. Location, historic building, and events such as painting with a local artist. The staff are absolutely wonderful and knew our name with a lovely greeting each time we walked in the lobby. I am so grateful for the opportunity to stay and have this delightful experience. Dream come true.
