2 star rating at best. Outdated!
This hotel is outdated and overpriced without providing the basic amenities. We checked in around 8pm to a junior suit for 4 people. Once checked in realized, they have no tea and coffee facilities in room nor a iron. The hotel staff confirmed the basics are not included in the expensive apartment. I was shocked that they do not even provide glasses for drinks unless you request from the bar. If you need clothes ironed, you need to drag your clothes to reception and wait 30mins until they set up a room with a ancient iron to use. The hairdryer within the bathrooms was from the 60's, plastic non usable handheld hoover looking pipes.

Lovely hotel with a great atmosphere
The hotel is really lovely. Our stay didn't start off very well as when we arrived there were 2 other very large families trying to check-in before us and only 1 receptionist. It took us over an hour to check in. Our check-in process in itself was quite efficient. Once we got to the room we could not switch on the light so we ask reception for help and they sent someone immediately. The rooms are clean, bright, have black-out curtains, a stocked minibar, a nice bathroom and space to work. bed is comfortable. The restaurant offers a very good dinner, with lots of choice, breakfast also offers a wide variety of choice. The pool is lovely and it's nice to spend some time there in the summer.

Hidden gem
Little did I know this hotel was stuck near a village with a couple of restaurants near by. I should’ve checked as l’d have hired a car as the taxis were dear. If all you want is to relax by a pool & nothing else, this is for you. Hotel is nice & modern but the service for food poolside is slow. For us the view of Etna in the morning from our balcony was a bonus.
Nicely lit up
Open to the public
Great view

Maybe better suited for business trips?
The hotel itself was clean, tidy, modern and, on the surface, has everything you need. However, the pool shuts at 5pm, something that we didn't see on any booking, and it is also open to the public. There is not really anything within walking distance, but we did find some nice places to eat within a 15 minute drive.

Dirty room, bad service, poor quality of food and breakfast. Only highlight was the bar with a great bartender. But that's where you need to spend some time to be able to not notice the filthy rooms.

NOTE: the indoor pool is owned by the spa and there is a charge of Euro10 per hour just to swim. At the end of the summer they close the outdoor pool. The staff are very attentive to their guests and want to do everything they can to ensure you have a good stay.

Nice hotel, great breakfast. Well placed for visiting Mount Etna and Taormina. Swim hats had to be worn in the pool but they sold them for one euro at the pool bar. Only downside was Luss being told not to jump into the pool. Lively trattorias in nearby Viagrande.

Fair but showing wear and tear
Spacious and pleasant but the rooms were rather stuffy. Breakfast was nothing special. Indeed I have never seen such a waste of eggs and bacon which of been cooked in huge quantities and left without being warned to go cold , greasy , and revolting. Whilst this hotel is pleasant be aware that it is literally in the middle of nowhere and not convenient to get to main roads.
