The Hotel was great. Downside that it has no car park. One time spent over 1.1/2Hours driving in Circles to find a parking spot. I was a bit disappointed in some thibgs….The Hotel takes a 100euro off your card as a security. Why? I paid cash all the time but wanted to have my evening dinner charged on my room and they refused because the bill was 104 euro. I never ever encountered such guest mistrust… I must add we waited a lot to get the second course.. a bit too much I would say.
The hotel was really beautiful, nice room, breakfast was great and varied. The staff very polite and courtious.
Grand Hotel Baia Verde is a nice resort hotel. Unfortunately we came in the off season so some amenities like the pool and access to the sea were not available.
Our room was a recently renovated room and was very clean with a balcony. The views in the morning were fantastic watching the sun rise up over the sea.
It’s about a 20 minute drive into the centre of Catania. Mount Etna is about a 40 minute drive
Would not recommend staying here unless you have a car, there isn’t much in walking distance apart from other hotels.
Staff were pleasant and helpful. Breakfast buffet was wonderful and the hotel bar was also nice.
Hotel grounds were well kept and very scenic. Parking is onsite in a secure lot.
Decent Stay with Friendly Service
Our stay at Hotel Villa Rossi was average, as expected from a 3-star property. The rooms were basic but acceptable. What stood out was the friendly and helpful staff at reception — great service from genuinely nice people. Overall, a decent experience for the price
SserenalimxlIncredible sea views from room’s balcony, pool and breakfast restaurant. Room a little dated with sticky floors, just wear bedroom slippers. Toilet is clean. Superb location!! Hotel was 3 mins walk to bus stop that takes you to Giardini train station. And 5 mins walk to the heart of town. Try Bam Bar’s granita & have dinner after sundown at any of the restaurants nearby.
ผผู้เข้าพักConveniently located very close to the Catania airport and only about 7 minutes by car from the historic centre of Catania (when there's no traffic). Our room was very large by the standards of Italian hotels. Everything was pretty new and fresh.
CClaire MLa Chicca Palace Hotel was a wonderful experience!
We loved it from the very first minute that we walked in! 🥰
It has a very playful and colorful ambience and lots of light! We were welcomed super friendly by Giovanna, had a very nice chat, and were helped with the parking that turned out to be quite convenient and almost right in front of the Hotel entrance with the use of an App that Giovanna recommended us to download. Giovanna also gave us a great recommendation for dining which we followed the next day and were very happy with.
Our room was beautiful and super clean as was the bathroom (sorry no pics) and the view from the balcony was as you can see on picture #2 & 3.
The tree on the left was fantastic! 🌳
And on the left side behind the tree there was a Café that had the best coffee granita we had during our stay on Sicily! 😋
We spent two nights at La Chicca. The breakfast place was super stylish - you can see on the picture, and the breakfast itself was simple, yet very typical for a Sicilian breakfast and completely satisfying. Definitely made us happy as well! I like it when there are fruits and eggs and yoghurt as well ...
After the first night, we took the ferry to Lipari, one of the Eolian Islands. It was an amazing day! In the evening, after a delicious dinner at Ristorante Panzakina - Giovanna's recommendation - we returned to the hotel, had a fun and long evening chat with lovely Giovanna, and were invited to have a Grappa together ... A perfect day! Actually, two perfect days at La Chicca in Milazzo on Sicily! ❤️
We are quite positive that we will return ...
AAntonioOverlooking the Ionian Sea, the Grand Hotel San Pietro is a beautiful hotel with landscaped gardens and excellent amenities. The staff are extremely courteous and helpful and the rooms are well appointed and very comfortable.
Located within a 10-15 minute walk of the shopping and sightseeing area of Taormina, makes this 5 Star hotel an excellent choice.
The staff, as mentioned, are very courteous and helpful - and it is quite easy to become friends with them. Infact, Christian and Loretta (who work in the bar area during the evenings) are 2 staff members that I highly commend - not only for their service but for the exceptional time we spent with them.
This hotel is highly recommended and I certainly look forward to returning in the not too distant future.
SshittalkerExcellent Stay with Great Location and Stunning Views
I recently stayed at this hotel and had a wonderful experience. The location is fantastic—just a 16-minute walk from the train station and about 15-20 minutes on foot to the island’s main attractions.
The room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and very clean, with the added bonus of being close to the sea. It even had two balconies, allowing us to enjoy the lovely views and fresh air.
What made our stay even better was the friendly and helpful staff. They were always welcoming and went out of their way to assist us whenever needed.

**Great Location & Beautiful Room, but Noise Can Be an Issue**
I had a mostly pleasant stay at this hotel. The location is excellent—just a **16-minute walk from the train station** and **15-20 minutes to the island’s main attractions**.
The room itself was **spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated**, with the added benefit of being **close to the sea** and featuring **two balconies**. The staff were also **very friendly and helpful**, which enhanced our experience.
However, there was one major downside: the walls are extremely thin. We could easily hear noises from the hallway and stairwell. On our last night, the neigh-boring room was very loud, which disrupted our sleep and unfortunately put a damper on an otherwise great trip.

MMassimo FiorePosizione eccellente, struttura un po' datata negli arredi ma ancora gradevole e funzionale.
Dotata di una bella piscina all'aperto che però visto il periodo non abbiamo usato.
IIka_EllyGreat experience!
Everything was really good. We had a room with terass and a view of the sea. It was stunning.
Room was very clean and sheets where changed daily, which was nice when you have two dogs that sneak into bed during the night.
Location was great. A short distance walk to the town center with shops and restaurants.
The parking service was great. They park the car for you and when you need it they will bring the car in front of the hotel within 15 minutes. It will cost you 20€/ night but it's hassle free.
Staff is fantastic. We arrived around 6AM (much earlier than expected), and way too early for the normal check-in time. We were absolutely exhausted after a night of driving and our room wasn't ready. But the staff was kind enough to give us a room to sleep in, and at 11AM we could check-in to our booked room. Free of charge!
Breakfast was also great and they do packed breakfast if you leave before breakfast time.
The hotel doesn't do laundry, but there is a laundry place 800m away.
