Great location for exploring Messina

Great location for exploring Messina. Room was large and quiet. Only little gripes: the shower didn’t get hot enough and the bed was uncomfortable. Great communication from the host was appreciated. Overall very good.

This B&B was quiet and classy. The amenities and beautiful decor were perfect and we enjoyed our stay. Parking was typical city parking, not the easiest but doable. Once we parked, we didn’t need the car and we easily walked to dinner and in the surrounding neighborhood. The kitchen was very well appointed. We would highly recommend

The location is perfect for getting around Messina. The decor has been beautifully and lovingly curated. What makes this place stand out is the owners who work as a team to make your stay perfect. I got very sick and was hospitalized while staying there. Antonella called the ambulance and gave my wife updates since no one at the hospital spoke English. She even called a taxi when she found out I was being discharged. We will never forget Antonella and Rosario's kindness. We would give this spot 10 stars if possible.

Two night stay in Messina

Our two night stay in Messina was a quite pleasant. B&B II Galleone is an amazingly beautiful bed & breakfast facility; clean and nicely decorated. Good location; walking distance to some attractions such as the Duomo as well as the train station. We attended a free concert at the Duomo the first night we were there; a pleasant surprise. Ample local transit, no problem getting around Messina.

Location near the Duomo

Road side parking was free as it’s public holiday, have to pay the next day from 8.30 am onwards. Breakfast was at a cafe 5 mins walk away. Good to walk to the Duomo as it’s nearby or to the ferry back to mainland.
