3 star hotels in Sicily

This was a very good and relaxing holiday. You have to Relax and let the time go by. The Bar is small but you can find the best nibbles and good Alcohol. We came last year 2024 and this year 2025 and have just arrived. I will surely try to make it as well next year.

Good break in a quiet location but is still close to other towns and the beach with a local supermarket 10 mins walk away. Food was okay with a good variety of things available each night staff went above and beyond adapting items available to suit dietary requirements and preferences. Bed was slightly uncomfortable as it was 2 single mattresses put together but hotel room was clean and a large terrace...

Nice break with friendly, helpful staff. Good amenities and very reasonably priced bar with a wide range of snacks. Evening entertainment brought the rating down - childrens disco at 10pm!! As soon as it started the adults started leaving the bar, the childrens entertainment was still playing at 10.45pm. (You are losing paying adults who would stay and buy drinks but don't want to listen to childrens...

We enjoyed our stay in Villagio Alkantara. We stayed in the room number 143. The rooms are pretty basic but very well kept clean and cosy with great air conditioner. The fridge is also a very nice bonus. We booked breakfast and dinner. Breakfast was standard but dinner was amazing with drinks included. Thank you so much, we enjoyed every meal and had a great time. The pool is very well kept with a...

We read a lot re this accommodation before we left, some were not so good , I don't see what anyone has to complain about though , it's what you pay for and believe me this wee place was really good. Clean and tidy , pool excellent , staff fabulous, breakfast continental, cheese ham, fruit tea, coffee, juices , fill your boots it was lovely . Down side, it is out of the way and transport unreliable...

Just spent a week here. Accomodation was basic but spotlessly clean. Lovely pool area, with lots of young people having a great time. Breakfast was lovely and plentiful. Staff were great. Couple of issues we had were swiftly dealt with by the very helpful reception staff, don't understand some of the negative reviews on here.

The host is extremely helpful. We were in a terrible situation where our booked accomodation got cancelled due to some issues and this property's host welcomed us even late at night. Cheap price and very near to beach. Beautiful location. Rooms are basic, do not expect any luxury. Great location if you have a late night or an early morning flight.

Not all the bungalows are next to the beach. Most aren't. They are old, there's holes on the bath tiles and doors covered by stickers. Everything is from 90s or 80s. The AC works great. Beds are mid. The fridge in the room was super loud. There's planes. If you don't like the sound of planes over your head, don't book. It's right next to the beach. Beach chairs 5€/day. I chose a blanket. There's easy...

I will definitely go back. Practically on the sea. The beautiful beach a few meters from the bungalow. Excellent cleaning. Friendly and pleasant staff. Large green spaces. Restaurant and tobacconist. Nearby there are restaurants, bars and a Lidl reachable in a few minutes by car. Bus stop for Catania center right at the entrance of the structure. Airport 5 minutes away.

The houses are made of cardboard, very noisy from airplanes!

I was in this village at the beginning of December, a quiet place, clean village, beautiful room, friendly staff Stunning sea view I recommend it to you

Something fabulous. Bungalows right on the beach. A wonderful sunrise. Beautiful view of Etna. Clean tidy. A very nice employee - a great person. The breakfast was modest but the coffee was delicious. 12 minutes to the airport. Open 24 hours. I am very satisfied. This place probably benefits in the summer, during the season. Nice infrastructure. Cottages in a wooded area, sandy beach, parking, 24-hour...

Excellent hotel in bad position (far from the center of city). Good chef for dinner.

Fantastic!! We had such a wonderful time the two nights we stayed at Hotel Scala and wish we stayed longer! We arrived our first night very late and were ravenous from our travels that day, the staff offered us dinner right after we got settled in at the restaurant on the property. We got wine and the spaghetti vongole, which was delicious. The air conditioner kept the room nice and cold which was...

Very nice employees very good breakfast The building needs painting

The property is located 4 km from the center of Syracuse. This is a good hotel without too many pretensions. The room is spacious and clean. The abundant breakfast is plus you will find free parking space near the property. Really low prices. Welcoming and very kind owner. I recommend it, I'll be back!

The most welcoming staff! Max was the best host and truly loves having guests

We had the best time visiting hotel scala greca. The rooms were large and clean. Max was the kindest! He was very attentive and caring. Such a wonderful stay. Will be back!

The staffs are very nice and friendly, breakfast is awesome. Would like to stay again.

Great hotel and well situated. The staff were very helpful.

Easy to move between connecting gates, as well safe and accomdating.

Pleasantly surprised by the hotel. The room was very big (albeit a bit outdated), ACs worked well, large balcony, water dispenser in reception to fill bottles, very large selection of food during the breakfast. What’s more, the hotel gave me gluten free goodies during the breakfast which were sealed to reduce risk of contamination. Staff were nice and even gave my son a colouring book.

The property is conveniently located, easy walking distance to areas of interest. Its about a 30 min walk to the train station. Room is clean and light, staff are really helpful.

Good location for getting a feel of the city during what was a very brief visit. Room was spacious and staff were friendly.

The hotel is a diamond in the rough. Sicily is not geared for tourists but Hotel Conchiglia D'oro is fantastic. James, Rosy, Roberto, Stefania and Antonio could not have been more helpful and accommodating. It is an easy 15 minute walk to Mondello beach which is easily one of the best beaches in Europe. Our room with the balcony is lovely and a great bathroom / shower for Med Europe. Breakfast is...

We stayed for a week and had a great time. Staff are very friendly, rooms are clean & maintained daily by the cleaners. There are good choices for breakfast and the swimming pool is pleasant and a decent size. The hotel is located in a quiet residential area and surrounded by incredible views of the mountains, whilst also only being a 10 minute walk from the beach & 15 from the square with great restaurants...

Good place to recharge batteries We had a pleasant stay with incredibly helpful staff. There was a vintage charm to the place, with a lovely pool area. It was easy to either sunbathe or sit under the pine trees and there was a tranquility to the stay. If you didn’t have a access to transport the seafront was a reasonable walk away, so some planning has important.

Cozy hotel with friendly staff Cozy hotel with friendly staff. The hotel is well located with a short distance to everything. Note that you must book a room with a refrigerator.

The property needs refurbishment, but very clean and professional personnel. Swimming pool is really handy during hot season. Location is perfect.Would be happy to come back.

Could be so much more! The room need too be modernaste, it had a bad smell of mold and just old air. The breakfast was okay, nothing special. The atrium yard could have been so much cozier, now it was just a ball room with plastic chais and tables. Walking distance to Mondello beach and town.

Beautiful hotel with a story, told by lots of decorative antiques and the super friendly manager who went out of his way to please us, he opened the bar for us, we feld extremely welcome and had a wonderful night. The room was really nice, quiet, spacious and clean, with balcony with a beautiful view over the bay. Would love to come back here!

The hotel is quite clean, the rooms are generally a bit dated, but they are cleaned every day and the towels are changed. The only really bad thing was the breakfast – very poor, with just a few types of cheap cold cuts, cheese, vegetables that were sometimes not even washed, coffee from a machine with a very bad taste, and a couple of sweet items

Excellent Experience – Highly Recommended! We had an amazing stay at this hotel! The hygiene was impeccable – everything was clean, fresh, and well-maintained. The service was absolutely phenomenal; the staff were all incredibly kind, helpful, and always ready to assist with a smile. The location is also perfect – close to everything you might need, yet quiet and peaceful. Truly a wonderful experience...

Location by the sea is nice. No parking place available only 7 in the garage for the whole hotel. Had to park at the edge of town €10/day. Rooms are small but ok. Airco works great. Bathroom has everything you need. Beds are hard but it seems to be very common on Sicily. Do NOT pay for the breakfast. You cant call this a breakfast. Small hard bread, cheese and ham was the only thing you could eat...

Very friendly and helpful staff. Room was OK and balcony view was splendid!

Great location on the boulevard. I loved the interior, so much to see, tasteful and done with love. Nice staff. Breakfast on top floor with terrace, wonderful to start the day there.

It was as ok to to spend a night or two

Excellent hotel! The staff were really friendly, helpful, and attentive to every need. Very clean rooms, very good food, generous breakfasts, and best of all, the hotel is located on the beach. Just a few meters from the water!!! I'll definitely be back!

We stayed last week in this hotel, honestly, given the bad reviews, I asked to see the room first, the very kind lady at the reception showed it to me with a lot of patience, the hotel is not new but the location, the cleanliness and the kindness of the staff are unparalleled, we returned this weekend too, and we will return for the next ones

Almost in the city center,,right on the Recanati beach,3 stars,very comfortable,few steps from the beach,clean rooms with tv,and room service,restaurant,good tasty italian food ,pasta,fruits,ice cream,delicious. Also has a bar ,balcony with lovely view on the beach and Vulcan Etna. Very friendly atmosphere ,nice decorated lobby and kind staff at reception. The bus station is very close ,so you can...

Stayed with my daughter for a week. Had to ask to switch the room as the original one was smelly . The new room was small with a balcony, quite old fashioned but tolerable. The hotel keeps it 90s flavour, which is kind of cool. Breakfast and dinner was all right, stuff is really friendly. The best thing is the location, just at the beach at the calm site of Giardini Naxos. The closest supermarket...

The hotel was well located to the bech and bus terminal. the hotel was satisfactory. the view of Mount Etna and beach was very nice.. Main issue was the coffee and juice machines. the coffee was actually chicory and not coffee at all. the juice was not fresh but seened to be some sort of powder mixture. breakfast was satisfactory. croissants had hairs in on first and second visit. not much help from...

, 🌭🍝Friendly stuff ,great food really enjoyed our stay ,the kids were so happy and the were many parties ,highly recommended ❤️❤️❤️

My friend and I booked this hotel without really knowing what to expect – but honestly, it completely exceeded our expectations. We were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary room upgrade, which gave us two double beds, a balcony, and everything we could possibly need. The room was spotless, spacious, and really comfortable. The location is absolutely ideal – right in the heart of Palermo, near...

We had a reasonable stay in hotel tonic, and we have no major complaints. Our room seemed pretty small compared to the other rooms in the hotel, at least those that we were able to see whilst their doors were open and the rooms being cleaned. Good: Location - walking distance to harbour and the historic centre, served well by local buses, and the airport shuttle bus stops nearby. We were able to...

Always a confirmation of a hotel in the historic center of Palermo, excellent value for money, breakfast could be improved

This hotel is conveniently located near the city center of Palermo. The rooms were very small, extremely outdated, and somewhat dark. The bathroom and rooms were very clean. If you are looking for just a place to sleep at a good price, it offers great value. The breakfast was amazing and the staff, helpful and accommodating.

The structure is a bit old and the cleaning is just sufficient... Many things to review

We stayed two nights at this hotel in a superior room with balcony and sea view. The room was too small for us but we knew this and for 2 nights it was fine. The breakfast was okay, nothing fantastic. You are paying for the location, it is absolutely fantastic, right in the heart of Taormina. Staff were very lovely. I'd recommend this hotel for the location. It has a wonderful rooftop area where you...

Right in the middle of the old town. A fantastic location. Taomini is super busy with crowds, so it was good to be able to easily escape back to our hotel room. There is a really nice (and under utilised) roof top area available for panorama views. The rooms was nice with a reasonably comfortable bed. Breakfast was available down stairs. I would stay here again.

Lovely hotel in a good location. Friendly staff from housekeeping, breakfast staff and reception area. Marco was very helpful with my room allocation.

Location can't be beaten,right on the Corso.We have been coming here for many years & have always enjoyed our stay. Nice bedroom with balcony & sea view & comfortable bed. Bathrooms are very small which some people have written negative reviews about Reception staff are friendly & helpful & the rooftop breakfast terrace has great views. There is also a shuttle service to a nearby beach resort.

Had a most pleasant experience. Room was huge with high ceilings, modern bathroom and a delicious continental breakfast. Location was perfect for us who were not interested in views but rather in the middle of the mix. Could not have asked for more. Bed rest was great and Internet was fast and reliable.

Lovely hotel in a great location, very central to everything needed. Breakfast was great, as was the access to the private beach club. Bathroom was a little small and dated but manageable for a few days.

Perfect location to walk to town or get down to the beach. The gardens are beautiful & relaxing! From the outside, it doesn't look like much because it is on a cliff but once inside some rooms have a beautiful view of the seas. It was very clean & the help was great! I would stay there again if we ever return to Sicily!!!

This is a charming hotel with a great view of the sea and a fabulous garden breakfast/lounge area! The breakfast was outstanding ! The hotel receptionist gave us an excellent suggestion for dinner. The only disadvantage of the property is the stairs and difficulty finding the entrance.

We walked in without a reservation, and were given a beautiful room with a sea view. A relaxed, comfortable ambience, and very helpful and courteous staff (thank you for helping us with our onward travel arrangements!) . The staff arranged for us to have breakfast early, to accommodate our early start to Mount Etna. Great coffee! It’s very handy for the bus terminus. Would definitely stay here again

Everything about this property is five stars, the staff and service the breakfast the cleanliness, the rooms and the views. The only criticism I have is that the parking is a bit expensive and it’s offsite.

Super Hoel Antonella, Mateo and Mario were super professional and helpful. They were there whenever we needed a car service, restaurant assistance or tour guide. This hotel is close to town and easy to get to the bus for traveling.Thank you it was an amazing trip and I would recommend this hotel.

Charming hotel with lovely views, friendly staff, very clean and comfortable. Great location, very nice breakfast and happy hour on the terrace. Would definitely recommend to all!

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Kalos! One of the highlights was definitely the adorable stray cats roaming the gardens, they are friendly and even let guests pet them. Seeing them enjoy a little food is such a heartwarming touch that really sets this hotel apart and adds a sense of care and humanity. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide selection of quality products, and the reception staff...

The rooms are very small and we can hear the voices from other Rooms around.

We like Italy, thought we'd try Sicily. Really enjoyed ourselves, 10 nights at the Kalos hotel, room 309 which we thought the best room there, for the view and the breeze. Free room safe, free TV, free a/c. Free WiFi, (we used the WiFi of the next door hotel as well) Tap water seemed ok to drink but I drink bottled water anyway Staff all very good and multi tasked, rooms done daily and towels changed...

Nice, clean hotel, kind staff, medium quality breakfast. Huge advantage is that hotel is just above the sea. 15 minutes by walk to the town center, 5 minutes to the nearest restaurants.

Lovely stay at Kalos Hotel after reading the reviews I must say the stay we had was better than expected firstly the breakfast is not just continental but bacon, eggs and mini sausages too. Secondly they do have a pool of their own you do not need to walk next door to use theirs. When you check out however there is no option for a room extension for extra time this did not affect us as we were leaving...

This is very small, nice hotel, maybe 20 minutes of a pleasant walk near the sea from Giardini Naxos. It shares the pool, restaurant and the beach with Nike hotel, which is a good thing because pool, though small is filled with sea water that gets warm during the day and feels awesome! Beach is nice, for swimmers only to be honest, because it's slippery and has lots of rocks. What I found bad are the...

All the people working there were very friendly and kind. Even the cleaning person was the same. Good breakfast and amazing view for me. If I come back , I want the same room, 336, please.

Great location, ocean front view, big and long terrace, 10 mins drive to airport.

Great spot on the water, property is dated but nice quiet stay

Amazing! I would recommend this place to anyone it's next to the sea, clean, very friendly stuff. I had no negative experiences on my 1 night here we even got upgraded with a seaview room for free!

Should have stayed more than 1 night What a great place! Staff were very friendly and helpful, prior and during my stay. The views are amazing! Room small but comfortable. I was lucky to have a balcony that faced the town, which was a short walk to. Must stay

The environment and service is wonderful, but there is a club across the street.about 200 meters away. So you can expect VERY loud music when they have party. AND in Italy it’s allow for loud music until midnight. Don’t even try to sleep early here.

I really like the 24-hour front desk here. They are very welcoming and helpful. The room is the best room in this price range. The picture shows the food court which is a 1-minute walk away.

I went a few months ago and my experience was great. The staff was super friendly and the hotel very cozy. The location was perfect, I could walk everywhere.

The room is clean, there is a good air conditioner, the Wi-Fi works. There is a gas water heater in the bathroom, so you won't be able to wash for a long time under a hot shower

This hotel is located in the center of Palermo. The elevator is also old-fashioned and there is no parking. The waiter recommended outdoor parking, which costs a higher fee of 20 euros a night. Breakfast was average.

Basique hôtel room, quite big but noisy (mostly coming from the corridors). Stayed there for a night so it was good and conveniently located

The moment I entered the room I could smell a little bit of cigarette, but when I switch on the aircon, the smell disappeared. The room, the bedsheets and the towels were really clean. The only problem was that I could hear people going in and out the room and it’s super loud. My stay include breakfast, but I think it could do better specially the eggs. And the coffee machine only provided espresso...

Our hostess, Francesca was the best hostess we’ve ever come across in our many years of travel in Italy. She above and beyond our expectations. Free breakfast was very good. Room was nice and balcony was nice, with a descent view. Beds were nice and cozy. Pool area clean and nice, maintained well by Francisco and Lucia.

Average hotel with bumped up prices for the summer season, which is to be expected. Positives - air conditioning in the rooms (but strangely not in the reception or bar area), there's a pool and the staff are pleasant. Negatives - the breakfast was pitiful and pretty low quality. It's meant to run until 10.30am, however we went down at 9.30am on 2 mornings to find practically nothing left - 3 slices...

Lovely view and location, very relaxing with great air conditioning, beautiful tiles in the room!

The view and pool were just amazing! We loved having our own terrace equipped with a hammock, chairs and a little salon table. This gave us some extra privacy when we wanted to have a glass of wine at our room.

The Hotel Arcangelo was a peaceful haven after spending a month on hot, busy Sicily. The hotel is between Via Roma and Via Sanità overlooking the sea from above. If you have rolling suitcases, use Via Sanità to avoid the steps on Via Roma. We had booked a Superior Double Room with Terrace and Sea View. Room 205 was spacious, air-conditioned, and even had a ceiling fan which seems rare in Europe...

Wonderful owner/staff, beautiful views, and sea across the street, great dining, casual, and great pool, etc. Walking along beach is wonderful.

The room was ok. It was clean. Nice view. Nice pool very close tonthe beach. Close to dining

Fantastic hotel right on the sea front. Rooms great size and cleaned every single day (fresh towels etc) Good AC in room (we had a Quadruple room - double bed and two single beds with balcony facing the pool and sea / mountains). Staff were amazing and extremely helpful throughout our 7 night stay. We arrived very late - no problem, as they were expecting this / we left very late and again no problem...

An absolute beautiful small hotel to stay in. Very organised and atmosphere is very charming and relaxing. You can have breakfast by the pool and view the sea with a cool breeze and gentle music playing in the background. Pool is open 9am to 7pm with one hour closure between 1:30-2:30pm Again gentle music playing in the background making very settled and relaxing atmosphere. Bar and lifeguard are...

Great atmosphere, if you are looking for the best sea side hotel where to relax, you found your place. The pool is something out of this world, thanks lifeguard Rosario; who is always there ready to help you choose the right drink :D Recommended!!

One thing about this hotel that i will definitely come back is the location, cleanliness and its right in front of the supermarket . I recommend you to take double room and its so affordable :) . And don't forget to bring cash for tourist tax. Well, I don't have many comments about this hotel because i feel comfortable and got what i need especially for solo traveling who wants to explore palermo...

One restaurant (Seven something) very expensive nearby. Wifi not very good. Would drop out. Stairs to third floor. Traffic noise and chair scraping.

minutes walk to train station and Palermo center, supermarket located in opposite street.

A good choice for a few days in Palermo. Excellent location and service. Simple and adequate facilities.

Not badly located, close to the central station, opposite a supermarket and Lidl. It's a pity there is no refrigerator in the room. Otherwise everything is fine

Excellent hotel, location near Palermo station

Excellent hotel, clean, very friendly staff, a very sweet and kind girl at the reception, breakfast was all available, plentiful. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to come and have a good time. Rizza Vincenzo

The hotel is in a very convenient and central location close to town. Considering the island's high prices, we can say it offers a great value compared to other hotels, especially considering the service and location. We stayed in the double room with a spectacular view of Dattilo and Stromboli; in the evening, we could see the volcanic activity from the window. We'd also like to add that we've never...

It’s well positioned to the port for arrivals/departures, very good breakfast served by lovely Diana even after breakfast finish time… running late as we’d done the 3-4 hour walk around the entire island. Thankyou to Salvatore at Tesoriero Hotel for offering all we needed… a good clean room, aeolian style… loved it!!

The hotel Tesoriero is managed by Salvatore and his team. Pefectly located just above the port, the hotel offers great rooms, a splendid rooftop and very nice services. Our room was spacious, well-equipped and with a loggia allowing us to relax after a long day outside. Salvatore was of great help and has a unique sense of hospitality. He made our stay so comfortable and cosy that we felt home from...

All perfect! The location is very convenient, the owner helpful and kind, the room clean and the breakfast good. The only flaw is that the rooms are not soundproofed and you could hear the music of the nearby clubs but in Panarea you know, you don't sleep! :) We even got a chance to shower after check out! RECOMMENDED!

Worthy of note, among the delightful narrow streets of Panarea, five minutes from the port, is this excellent structure. Hospitality and availability of the owner and all the staff to best solve every request are the basis of a pleasant stay. Large, bright rooms, equipped with every comfort, with breathtaking views.

Great location near to the port. Room was nice with comfortable bed. Great breakfast with huge selection to choose from. Have stayed here a few times now when we have visited Stromboli and will continue to do so.

A charming place Very nice place, well situated close to the main activities...

Lucia and all the staff were welcoming and helpful. Perfect location for the ferry - a 2-minute walk to the hotel. We liked the breakfast and the view of the Volcano from the terrace. You could see the red glow Very convenient location.

Great location for volcano visit. Another nice stay at Osidiana, cleanliness and service all very good.

Great Stay in Stromboli Incredible position with sea and volcano view. Very close to the port and restaurants. Plenty of indoor and outdoor space. Very welcome air con in the bedrooms.

Beautiful hotel, big room and beautiful view over the port of Stromboli. The breakfast was amazing! Very convenient to visit the main center of the village and close to the port.

A lovely, small and quiet hotel, run by a welcoming Sicilan family and staff. Very clean, with lovely sea views and a short walk down steps to their private beach, where beds and umbrellas are provided at no extra cost. Flat screen TVs and mini fridges in rooms, free fast WiFi and air-conditioning. We took advantage of the free safety deposit box (located behind reception) to keep passports and a few...

Great position just by the sea and in walking distance to the amazing Selinunte temples. Nice staff and clean hotel.

Great location and terrace overlooking the sea. The room was quite basic. Breakfast was good. Staff spoke little English but tried to be as helpful as possible. We were offseason and there was good parking available. In season is probably very difficult. Nearby restaurant Pierrot was fantastic.

So close to the town and beach. Everyone was very friendly and the room was excellent. Great breakfast and definitely worth a visit

It’s an old hotel. It has warts. Great views. Nice beach close by. No air conditioning, missed that when booking. Would not have booked otherwise.

Not satisfied Good location in relation to the beach. However, the room condition was outdated, with molds in the shower. Breakfast dull.
