Bit rough round the edges

The mattress was past its best (bowed), the furniture tired (lots of knocks and scrapes) and the room and bathroom in need of updating. The bathroom wasn’t particularly clean. That said the staff were very friendly and the lounge and lobby areas were nice, pool ok, breakfast also very good. OK for one night but no more.

Clean, very lively hotel - local people use pool!!

Very easy to find accommodation, until you look for the main car park, so our approach was from the overflow car park. We walked up a slippery path into a heaving, noisy, swimming pool area, full of youngsters and even school children! Not what we expected at all. Impossible to find a sun bed, they were either in use or reserved with towels and no one to be seen! Room wasn't available at our check in time. Filled our time at the bar and in the restaurant - no pizzas on Wednesday! Bar staff were very friendly, less so for restaurant staff at lunch time. The hotel is run by very young staff. Food was tasty and nicely presented. When shown to our room, it wasn't what we had booked, in fact we were being offered a "double" room, which on plan was a single!!! No balcony either. Management did rectify this and we were very pleased with our replacement room, but that shouldn't have happened in the first place. Restaurant at night was very quiet, but it seemed the staff knew the people sitting in the area and spent much time chatting with them, it seems staff also took their young children to work with them! Poor children! Not appropriate.Breakfast room was lovely and bright, cheerful staff and all the usual things you expect at breakfast time. Nice to see a chiller with perishable things in it, too. The location is really good for an early start up Etna, Rifugio Sapienza. We were there for 9.30 and no queues!!! Felt like we stayed in a 6th form common room with nice facilities.

Rooms very small, they could have done with extra room for 2 people. We had to really work our way around our accommodation. Not very private either, each balcony overlooked the other with doors right beside. Pleasant outlook to Mt Etna

La chambre n'était pas propre. Des confettis du client avant étaient dans toute la chambre et la salle de bain. La climatisation à 16° ne refroidissait pas. Nous devions dormir avec la fenêtre ouverte. Le frigidaire ne refroidissait pas à notre arrivée. Il a fallu que l'on fasse intervenir un technicien. De plus, étant en fauteuil roulant, c'est assez compliqué à se déplacer. Pas de place de parking réservé. Ascenseur petit.

Andreas Klein geb., Coppenbruegge

Wir waren einige Tage dort, es war nachts laut durch die Umgebung, aber wiederum sehr praktisch um zum Etna zu gelangen, wie auch nach Catania oder Taormina. Das Frühstück war guter Durchschnitt, wir haben das Hotelrestaurant nur genutzt um abends noch einen Drink zu haben. Die Umgebung des Hotels ist nicht unbedingt vertrauenserweckend, laut und alles sieht sehr heruntergekommen aus. Ich würde sagen für Aktiv-Urlauber, Wanderer, Radfahrer eine guter Stützpunkt. Für Urlauber die etwas Luxus, Service und Ambiente suchen, absolut nicht geeignet.

Fint hotel, men ikke prægende.

Fint hotel til en rimelig pris. Poolen blev ikke rengjort i den uge, vi var der, så den kan ikke anbefales at benytte. Morgenmaden var lidt kedelig, men fin til lige at starte dagen på. Det ligger et godt stykke fra andet by, så det kan bestemt anbefales, at man har bil med.

A éviter si on souhaite être au calme et se repose

Nous avions choisi cet hotel pour sa proximité avec l'etna. Nous souhaitions nous y reposer afin de réaliser l'ascension assez tôt le lendemain. Malheureusement, les chambres donnent sur la piscine et sont très mal isolées et non insonorisées. Et la première nuit une sorte de "fête" au bord de cette piscine nous a empêché de dormir avec une "musique" et un bruit épouvantables avec quelqu'un qui hurlait dans un micro, depuis le soir et jusqu'à 1H15 du matin!! Notre demande de faire stopper ces nuisances a été infructueuse, et aucune contre-partie à cette première nuit épouvantable n'a été proposée. Par ailleurs en journée la piscine perd de son intérêt avec une autre "musique" par hauts parleurs qui oblige à lire avec des boules quies... Le petit déjeuner est sommaire et les chambres accessibles par de nombreux escaliers avec personne pour aider à monter les bagages.Un ascenseur extérieur semble en construction mais n'était pas opérationnel lors de notre séjour. Donc à éviter si on souhaite être au calme et être acceuillis avec le respect minimum.

hôtel décevant

Notre chambre de 4 personnes était bien. Le petit déjeuner compris et un parking à proximité de l'hôtel. La piscine n'est pas privée, beaucoup de monde et endroit bruyant. Manque d'attention auprès des clients de la part de certaines personnes du personnel, même pas "bonjour" ! Des soirées privées sont organisées dans un des restaurants et les clients ne sont pas prévenus du bruit éventuel. Par contre, emplacement de l'hôtel idéal pour l'ascension de l'Etna.
