Four of us stayed at La Giara recently, and loved it. The owner, Patrizia, and her aunt, Liliana treat you like family as they are so kind and helpful. The rooms are beautiful and comfortable, and the breakfast is delicious - especially the pistachio croissants! There is a living room area and terraces for relaxing. It's in a great location... More

La Giara is a wonderful B&B not far from the center of Nicolosi. The rooms are quiet, clean and comfortable. Its location is perfect if you want to climb the Etna or to see the cities and the natural beauties of northeastern coast of Sicily. In addition to this, there is the lovely host Patrizia. She made our stay in... More

La Giara is perfectly located for a trip up Mount Etna. But Catania, the Alcantara Gorge, the tourist trap of Taormina and the sandy beaches are also within easy reach. The town of Nicolosi itself is not really worth a visit, though there are some reasonable restaurants, trattorias and pizzerias. The great attraction of La Giara is its host, Patrizia.... More

The B&B was very clean. Lilliana was very kind and hospitable. Everything was prepared to perfection. We were also let put our car in the drive-in. The area was also very quiet and relaxing. We recommend this B&B to everyone because you would surely be satisfied. Lucienne and Luigi Bellisimo Malta More

All the best they write about La Giara and Patrizia is true. She is a fantastic woman who makes staying at La Giara an experience for life. She cares about you before, during and after your stay. As an example: yesterday Norway was experiencing a terrible terror attack with bombing and slaughtering of so many young people. Just this morning... More

Exellent B&B, lovely room with terrace, very good breakfast, though at night you can be awakened by barking neighbourhood-dogs. Sometimes Patrizia has so much to do that it looks a bit chaotic, but she is always availible to give advice and you really feel at home. Nicolosi has everything you need and is well situated to climb the Etna, but... More

I booked in advance (listed in Lonely Planet) because it was convenient to Mt. Etna. Wow, it was lovely (--I wrote in my notes): lovely decor, comfortable rooms, congenial guests, and the best of attention. Patrizia even came down to the square to pick me (& my backpack) up.. She made refreshments available, as we wished, and prepared a delicious... More
