"This was one of the best experiences we’ve had, and really appreciate the staff at this beautiful hotel. The space is lovely, as are the rooms. The location is incredible and the views can’t be beat. Finally, the team there were so helpful and genuinely invested in our comfort. They went way out of their way to accommodate vegan diets and did an incredible incredible job. Easily in the top 5 of our hotel experiences and could be the top spot. Highly recommended!"

Top Sicily Hotel Reviews

Etna Suite

10/10 Excellent

"The best part was the perfect location! Room was clean and breakfast was simple but good!"

Hotel Politeama

10/10 Excellent

"We booked a suite with wraparound balcony. Suite was lovely, cannot fault it at all. Views over Palermo were amazing and when sleeping the windows blocked out the noise of the bustling city. Maids came when needed and did a fantastic job. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Really enjoyed the continental breakfast selection. Location was perfect, not far from the historical centre and massimo teatro but far enough away for anyone wanting a slightly quieter base to explore. Palermo is a great city. It’s gritty in places, but the architecture, streets and piazza’s are also very beautiful. Restaurants and bars we went to were excellent. The people couldn’t be more friendlier, especially when they saw we were making a little effort to speak basic Italian (albeit poorly!). Although most spoke excellent English. One point I would make, it was extremely hot (early Sept) and when going back we would visit later in year (October). The hotel does have (much-needed) aircon which meant heat was only an issue when outside. Overall, brilliant city break and the hotel helped make it an unforgettable trip. Grazie mille!!"

Algila' Ortigia Charme Hotel

8/10 Good

"This hotel is well situated in Ortigia and is in a lovely old building. We enjoyed the staff, the bar and the breakfast. However we were misled by our room booking on Expedia. We expect d a room with a view of a mediterranean garden. We got a room facing an inner area- the light well - which afforded very little natural light in the room.band faced another bedroom’s window. The room was very small, with the shower in a closet area, and the toilet in a room on the other side of the bedroom. We asked to move but there was nothing available or offered for the two nights we stayed. All for $480/night. I expected more and would recommend that you book this hotel with caution if you value nice accommodation."

UNA Hotels Naxos Beach Sicilia

10/10 Excellent

"Great resort for families and couples! We left for food one night and really regretted it! The food was SO GOOD, particularly the breakfast and dinner near the villa’s. Beautiful ambience and best food we ate in Sicily! From the antipasto, the pasta and the meat, definitely an amazing space!"
