Nice property with friendly staff. Pool is a bonus and proximity to the beach very convenient. Hotel also has its own parking lot which is competitively priced. Downtown area is a short walk away, roughly 1.5 kms.

It is an older hotel with dated rooms but very clean & rooms were big. Pool was big and its right across the street from the beach. I did not like that they charge for an umbrella & chair on their own portion of the beach.

This hotel is a gem and rght on the beach. The staff are wonderful, so helpful and charming. The view from the rooms are spectacular. The sunsets are magical. Ideal location too, very peaceful. The breakfast was great and it's only a short walk down the sea front to the restaurants and the town. I will definitely be going back to Hotel Tourist, perfect for our holiday.

Rooms were clean and spacious. Staff was very helpful and spoke good English. Breakfast was good. Decent amount of choice. Swimming pool was incredibly clean, clear and plenty long enough for lap swimming 25 - 30 meters long with lane lines. No need to use beach. Overall one of the best hotels we stayed at.

The hotel is very old and quite run down. The room felt dingy and the tiles in the bathroom on the floor were cracked in several places which could cut your feet. Breakfast had a good selection.

Good location, within walking distance to town, shopping, and restaurants. Lovely view of the water, and good breakfast. The pool was good with lots of sunny areas to relax. The room was just ok - it took almost all day for housekeeping to come refresh the room, and it wasn't in the cleanest condition.

Weekend getaway

Really good stay with this hotel, especially for the price! Nice pool, close to the beach, quiet. It is a walk to downtown cefalu but we enjoyed the walk plus it’s good for you! Breakfast is included which is a very nice perk. We would stay here again!

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
I booked a standard room for 2 nights - the only available at the time of booking. Whilst the hotel location is great - right by the beach, walking distance to Cefalu and has parking for an extra EU 15/day, the furniture in the room is old and chipped, the mattresses are also old, hard and uncomfortable and uneven with age, the mini fridge barely works (I was told it's due to the fact that it is not a conventional fridge), there is no tea/coffee facilities in the room, and nothing in the fridge. There are no glasses for drinking and despite a 'sustainability' pamphlet in the bathroom, there are 4 plastic lined paper cups individually wrapped in plastic in the bathroom - I suppose in case you wanted to drink some water. The air conditioner has not been cleaned in ages - the dust is visibly clumped to the blades. When I asked for a non plastic glass at the bar downstairs, I got a very unfriendly " why do you want that?" . I was asked by the receptionist after I checked into the room how I liked my room. When I told him it is unexpectedly old, with chipped furniture, a fridge that does not work and not worth the price I was charged, he said " well, but you have a good view". It seems the hotel is trading solely on it's location. Overall, not value for money and a great pity as it could be a great hotel, if only the owners cared to make it so.

Great location, staff are very friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was great with a beautiful view over the bay from the balcony. 2 minute walk to the cable car to take up to Taormina. 5 minute walk to Isola Belle beach, perfect location. Highly recommend!

The facilities are typical non luxury hotels. The rooms are mediocre at best but the pool area is nice. You have to pay for everything (beach chair, towels) but can sit by the pool without a fee- except for towels

Staff seem disinterested most of the time apart from the lovely lady at breakfast. Pool is nice but I’d be concerned if I had small children as it’s quite deep throughout. I’ve never been in a hotel that didn’t have an iron- asked for one and told it wasn’t possible. Breakfast was fine - could do with another coffee machine and cartons of juice were sometimes available. WiFi in my room wasn’t working - asked reception but no help and less interest. TV worked but no English speaking stations worked without interference. Local discos can be heard on a a Saturday and Sunday until 3am. 15 minute walk in and out of old town. Deco supermarket 10 mins walk. Beach towels available for €3 each. €10 to use private beach across the road. Hotel is fine. Not value for money- quite expensive. Staff could do with going on a charm course - not rude but definitely not overly hospitable.
