Highly recommended
We were wonderfully welcomed by Rita who gave us detailed information about the city and its highlights. Our room was spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed a tasty dinner in the rooftop restaurant with great views of the city and Mount Etna. We liked the breakfast buffet.

Location is good the breakfast is above the average and the parking is nice. Stop in front of the hotel and they park for you. Garage is 22euro per night.
Room is spacious but they didn’t replace the used personal items - tissue paper, conditioner etc.
