We stayed at this hotel just for one night. It had some pluses - near the sea, with sound of waves in the night even with closed windows. But the room needed a quick renovation - cupboard was with broken shutter, ceiling was dirty, bath had a broken shower, breakfast was poor. So you had to think about staying at... More

It was in a good position, just a 5 minute walk away from a lido with easy access to the beach. The beach along the coast is rocky with no sand, so it was worth paying 8 euros each at the lido for the day for easy access to the sea, loungers, umbrellas etc. We stayed in the hotel at... More

The hotel people were fantastic. When we checked-in, the room smelled of smoke. We immediately went down to the lobby. No problem, new room with no smell and a better room anyway. We didn't have towels for swimming in the ocean, no problem the front desk lent us towels for the entire stay. Always friendly, always helpful. The hotel has... More

Stayed at the Faraglioni with three friends last week. The location of the hotel is perfect. Bang on the seafront at the most panoramic end of this pristine fishing village fifteen minutes drive north of Catania. Just metres away from some of the best seafood restaurants in Sicily. Modern hotel with spectacular seaviews from most of the fifty rooms. Rooms... More

There are prettier places in Sicily than Aci Trezza but the ones I have seen (Cefalù, say or Agrigento) are all a bit spoilt by tourism. The two things that usually spoil it for me are a) souvenir shops, b) restaurants where the native language is all but unheard. So there you are; Aci Trezza, the little sister of Aci... More

My husband and I concluded our 10 day trip to Sicily by staying 3 nights at the Grand Hotel. It was the perfect ending to a great trip. It has a superb location for making day trips to Taromina, Mt. Etna, Catania, etc. It was quiet, clean, and the staff were most helpful. We highly recommend it.
