Very well-kempt and spotless hotel. We had spacious room with a sea view. Enjoyed sitting on the balcony and watching the locals on their evening promenade, passegiata. The sandy beach is just on the other side of the street and you can get beach towels from the reception. The hotel has its own little parking place which comes handy for... More

We drove into Cefalu on a busy weekend evening in late April. The city was packed with people and we despaired of finding a room as we had made no reservations. We were driving through town looking for a hotel that seemed appealing and we were stalled in traffic for a while when a fellow named Guiseppi showed up at... More

After a tiring drive in the off-season, we chose this exceptionally pretty hotel on the waterfront for its location and--after being shown the room--for its beauty. Unfortunately, a nerve-soothing, before-dinner shower proved impossible on this chilly day; the hottest water available was not even tepid--far too cold to bathe in. I spoke to the employee on the desk, who said... More

This is a beautiful hotel right on the beach, large rooms, friendly greeting, entirely first class. So why no hot water? And they don't even seem particularly worried about it.

Cold water, babies crying next door, people making babies next door( the other door) in other words no soundproofing, and an arrogant owner. The staff were fantastic but obviously in awe of their boss. Great location genuine staff let down the owner failing hospitality 101.

Extraordinary decor, totally out of step with its neighbours. I wasn't very sure when we first went in but the welcome was first class from the man who showed us where the car park was to the lovely chap who coached me on how to say our room number in Italian. I was slightly disappointed that breaksfast was served in... More

We turned up in Cefalu looking for somewhere to stay and relax following a busy week touring Sicily, in late October. Having called in at various hotels in town, we decided on a double room at the front of the Rive del Sole, over-looking the beach, offered to us at an excellent rate with free parking. Despite being at the... More

A hotel that has invested lots and lots of money into good quality, over the top, classic decor that you’d expect to find in a luxury 5 star hotel in the Middle East. A bit of a misfit in a charming old town of humble origins with the remains of an atmosphere of a fishing village. If you like modern,... More
