This was my 3rd visit at this lovely B&B. This time we occupied the entire place. The rooms are all very nice, the lounge is good, the breakfast is very good, and the owner Patriza is very friendly and helpful. All in all - Nicolosi is a nice town - and La Giara is a great place to stay.

Great location, great price and perfect host. Patrizia has got you sorted..made sure we were organised to enjoy the local scenery and food. Also helped in ensuring we were set for future locations in Sicily...Delicious breaky too!

The warmth of a warm fire, the familiarity of a couple of good local restaurants (Antico Otto Dei Lemoni, and 7+), the sage advice of Patrizia, and the breakfasts of an aunt I sorrowfully never had....these help make La Giara a great place to stay.

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

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
