The whole experience was superb at Dimora Cottanera. The rooms, the staff, the food and the exclusive ambience. Definitely do the wine tasting, they were delicious and well-explained.

These Apartments are immaculate and in an excellent and convenient location. We upgraded to an apartment with a view of the town and sea which was a great sun trap to enjoy breakfast!
No need to take anything with you as all basics are provided eg towels, hairdryer, toiletries, tea towels etc.
Valet parking available at extra charge - a must if you have a car as parking spaces few and far between. Parking is off site so 10 mins notice required to retrieve vehicle.
Can't wait to return-...

Fantastic spot right in the centre of historic Catania. The staff were super helpful, waiting for us even though our flight was delayed on a Sunday night. The room was delightful with views of the cathedral and tucked right behind the theatre. Lovely breakfast spread which we ate on the delightful terrace. Couldn't recommend enough. Comfortable bed and A/C to boot!

The perfect stay in the quaint lovely small town of Castliglione de Sicilia. Great location if you’re going to hike Mt Etna. Comfortable clean rooms with gorgeous views from the rooms and communal rooftop. Highly recommend if you want a quiet more local stay.

The hotel is small but well run. Very friendly staff and it is right in the middle of the town. Very convenient. We used their garage. Lovely fun staff running breakfast and if having a cooked breakfast it turned up almost immediately. It does not feel like the normal tourist hotel. Loved it

Breakfast/Room service - Babita was very welcoming with a smile every morning. Works 6 days a week cleaning and serving the whole place. Lovely to speak to. Always positive to see her in the morning. Enjoyed my breakfast time.
Then we have Alessia who is the main receptionist, we celebrated our birthdays, she told me places to visit, was very kind and we had good conversations. I enjoyed seeing her everyday before heading out for the day. She was very informative.

This hotel is a class act. Beautifully appointed, every detail taken care of, lovely linen, furniture and decoration. Walking distance into Central Taormina and all its restaurants. Close to the biological gardens. Lovely helpful staff. Breakfast in the rooftop restaurant is easily the best hotel breakfast I have had since Chewton Glen in the UK! Highly recommended.

We loved our stay at Donna Carmela, beautiful boutique hotel, no expense has been spared in making it as nice as possible. Staff were charming, and the off season prices were very reasonable. That part of Sicily is very built up but the hotel is an oasis of peace.

Room was as expected, bed was comfortable as you would expect from a 5-star hotel. Bathroom was large as well and had the hotel branded goods. For the breakfast area, there was an option to sit outside, which was pleasant. Plenty of options as well and the staff where ready at hand to address any requests.
We used Catania as base to explore the surrounding sites, but the city itself was larger than I thought and had some interesting things to see. The cathedral and main shopping street are...

Our stay was fabulous with nothing to fault it. Our host was looking out for us when we arrived, helped with parking and very welcoming. The apartment, room, and terrace were lovely with great attention to detail. Great breakfast. The accommodation was only minutes away from the duomo but also situated in a small very pretty square.

Gorgeous boutique property in a fabulous location to explore Taormina. The valet parking was super helpful. Lovely views of Mt Etna from the terrace. The bar was an oasis with great cocktails. Would definitely recommend.

We stayed for one night and it’s the most perfect location if you don’t have a long time in Taormina. The check in was very efficient and they called us beforehand to make sure our driver knew directions - when we arrived there was someone waiting for us before the road to the hotel (as its pedestrian only) they took our luggage and it was a premium service.

We stayed here for two nights and it was great. It was just 10-15 minutes walk to the main squares and shopping areas. The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Everything was spotlessly clean and the breakfast was lovely. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We would definately stay here again.
