Very Nice Hotel at the Foot of Mt Etna

This is a beautiful property. The staff members went above and beyond. The restaurant is great and highly recommended. They even arranged a private pistachio tasting for us. For the price, it is a great value. Architecturally, the property is stunning inside.

Love This Place!

I loved this place. Well located and luckily very well lit (there was a ton of fog when I arrived and their large, well-lit sign made all the difference. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The rooms are very elegant. There is a stunning view of Mt. Etna, and their chef is excellent. Can't wait to come back!

朝ごはん最高!

自然の中の高級感が漂うホテル、スタッフのホスピタリティも素晴らしいです。ただ駅からタクシーがなく大変困りました。ホテルからはホテルの方のご好意で駅まで送っていただきました。朝のモーニングは食べきれない程、素晴らしい朝食でした。お部屋も広くて申し分ありません!
