4 star hotels in Sicily

Location was very good close to the centre and right opposite the pedestrianised sea front. Staff were good, pool was nice and generally a pleasant stay.

Hotel has no wi fi as stated on website. The breakfast is poor. Juice machine broken. One coffee machine. Air conditioning was good. Staff friendly but just a so-so place. On seawall but in very poor part of town . Many buildings deserted and run down. The casbah is about a 20 minute walk away.

Mahara sits at the edge of the Mediterranean, along Lungomare Mazzini, a quite busy seawalk promenade. It's a large compound, with a large courtyard, used for the open air restuarant-bar. You had to walk 10 minutes before reaching Piazza Mokarta, the Norman Arch, the Basilica Cathedral, and Piazza dela Republic, arguably the busy center of the old town. The Hopps Hotel, also along Mazzini, is a bit...

The Mahara is a beautiful hotel in the perfect location and the staff are excellent from housekeeping to the front desk , the restaurant staff and groundskeeping.The view of the sea is beautiful.Enjoyed our stay and will return

Honestly a great hotel. Just checking out after 3 nights and it’s been a lovely stay. Hotel a bit dated but clean and well equipped. Food has been plentiful and authentic - we ate here twice in the evening and there’s also a world class pizza restaurant next door. Staff everywhere have been so charming and helpful. Our fridge wasn’t working and it was quickly replaced. Waiting staff so friendly...

Uncomfortable bed and pillows, very bad breakfast, not fresh, worst I’ve had in Europe, very noisy and music from a wedding piped into courtyard until after 1:00 am not mitigated by sound machine and ear plugs. The pool was nice. Basically a two star hotel in US. Will recommend travel company Overseas Adventure Travel use alternate hotel.

The room had a very strong smell of tobacco. There is only a curtain blocking the sunlight, so by 7:00 a.m. the room is already very bright, which wakes us up. Only one pillow is provided per person. The cleaning staff starts singing and talking right outside our door at 7:00 a.m. We had just come from a long journey and only needed to rest, but unfortunately that was not the case. During the night...

We had a great stay at this hotel. When we first arrived, our assigned room had a strong smell of cigarette smoke, which was a big issue for me since I am pregnant. However, the gentleman at the front desk was incredibly kind and changed our room immediately without any hassle. We were highly satisfied with the service and the overall quality of the staff. They truly care about their guests!

The room was fine but not great. There was some bad odours in the bathroom, the shower door was hardly closing and there was no head towels. Fine for the price but would not specifically recommend, only highlight is the staff behind very nice and professional.

Very nice place and location definitely worth the staff is very nice and helpful the rooms and the whole place is very clean,i was there for 1 week in April and definitely would love to go back this summer is very close to train station and the center.

Very welcoming hotel. Good English speaking staff. Spacious and clean rooms, jumbo bed and great breakfast. Located in a quiet area, although it is just opposite the train station, which is not busy at all. Not far off from the city centre by walk. Minor maintenance is recommended in the bathroom.

Spotlessly clean and just a short walk from the station.

A nice big hotel (which is rare for Italy). The hotel has free parking out front and is right across from the beach

Week-end in relax! Camera vista mare con idromassaggio molto bella ma soprattutto super pulita! Ottima la colazione! Avremmo voluto sapere al telefono da parte della ragazza che ci ha risposto che la spiaggia fosse a pagamento e che in piscina é necessaria la cuffia... Personale super cordiale al bar, colazioni e il mitico Ciccio alla Reception! Torneremo sicuramente.

Excellent hotel, perfect location for visiting Sicily, very close to Taormina

We were transferred to this hotel due to a problem with our booking elsewhere. The hotel rooms were excellent (we had 3 rooms all with sea facing large balconies). Breakfast was excellent as was the bar/cafe on the ground floor. The staff were exceptional !! Every one of them was helpful and happy and went out of their way to serve us - i can honestly say the best crew i have ever met in a hotel. Would...

The sea facing rooms are lovely . The STANDARD rooms are small with the worst views I’ve ever seen …. You can almost touch the laundry lines on the building opposite. I’m not exaggerating. !

It's excellent, I recommend it, the staff is friendly and located in a central location.

This hotel is a little gem in the Ragusa area. I had already stayed here in 2008, and nothing has changed in terms of quality—if anything, it’s even improved. The staff are knowledgeable and extremely kind, customer service is top-notch, and the rooms are spacious, bright, and well-furnished. But in my opinion, the real value of staying here lies in the serene energy you feel. It’s as if your body...

The minute I went into my room you could smell the mould. The bathroom needs either a deep clean or a total Reno, Carpets in the hallways were faded and buckled - major trip hazard. Although the reception area looked nice that didn’t flow through to the rooms. Service in the restaurant was abysmal - 2 hrs to put together a plate of cold meat & cheese, did not appear to have enough staff in the kitchen...

Large hotel with spacious outdoor pool, nice indoor bar, lounge and restaurant. Rooms clean and comfortable, many with balconies. Traveled with tour group and staff were very pleasant and accommodating. Dining spaces and options well planned.Short walk to waterfront with other restaurants

Very basic services. Rooms are ok, breakfast is in an upleasant echoing space. The selection is very limited except for sweets In between and for lunch you have to move to other places because there is no offer. Most of the staff is unfriendly

Close to Ragusa, parking, pool, resort style hotel

We had this as one of our stops for 2 nights. Lovely hotel. Very clean and quiet. No traffic sounds and very peaceful. Good breakfast and nice staff. Room was well organized and clean nice decor. Would recommend it to anybody who wants time away from hurly burly. We didn't have time to experience the pool or spa unfortunately.

Prime location. Excellent service. Big rooms. Fantastic view around. A park just behind. Close to City Centre.

Very nice hotel, situated on the entrance of Noto. We had a short pleasant stay! Breakfast is great and parking very easy!

Perfect for what you need, big, clean rooms, big bathroom, big balcony, the hotel does feel a little lifeless, but hey, it's in noto, during the late/off season, can't expect too much more! Well situated with plenty of on site, free parking.

A large property just outside of central Noto, but walkable. Huge and easily accessible parking lot was appreciated. Breakfast service could use one more coffee machine- line got long at times. Access to pool is a bit of a walk and getting around inside of this huge property can be confusing but overall, a nice stay.

Free On site parking was great. Breakfast buffet was great

Room was large and comfortable. Overall property was dated. It was close to Noto historic area, which was nice.

The rooms were clean and comfortable. The buffet was excellent. The only downside was no handrail getting into and out of the pool. That would've been appreciated.

We just returned from a week long family holiday, with a group of friends with kids at Falconara. What a beautiful and peaceful resort! All the staff were very friendly and understanding to our requests as a whole group with young children and tried to accommodate us as much as possible! Thank you!!! We were on a b&b basis; the rooms were very clean and spacious, breakfast was always fresh and plentiful...

It may be that Greenblu resorts are well known in Italy, but for the uninitiated it came as a bit of an unknown as to what to expect. We stayed at the resort primarily in order to visit the Valley Of The Temples but the resort was a very agreeable place to stay. It’s quite regimented - if you want to buy something you need to purchase a prepaid card - but the facilities are very good; though the spa...

Beautiful property and wonderful staff. The Dining options were excellent! Would definitely recommend.

From the moment we arrived, the service was nothing short of exceptional. Every member of staff — from reception to housekeeping to the kitchen team — went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. The food was outstanding, and the vegan menu in particular was a real highlight. The chef even prepared fresh vegan croissants for breakfast, which was a wonderful touch. The gardens are beautifully...

Fresh, adbundant buffet breakfast served every morning with a good cappuccino (or other type) freshly brewed. Just at 20 steps from a coral color water beach

Great location, friendly staff and close to beach and town.

Property was very well maintained, staff were extremely helpful

Room was clean, great balcony, great location across from beach and staff was wonderful and helpful

Hotel is old but, staff and management are kind and i would say room and open space are really clean and well kept. Nothing bad to say but a touch of modernity it would need

This very good hotel and service as well. I come here with my husband and they give us room with balcony right in front of the beach...why that special? Because you can enjoy coffee and watching a lot of white birds and aircraft both landing or take off due to hotel very near with the airport

STANZA IN BUONE CONDIZIONI, PULITA, MA SENZA DIVISIONE BAGNO CAMERA NON MI E' PIACIUTA MOLTO, IL WC E BIDET SEPARATI MA COMUNQUE DOCCIA E LAVANDINO IN CAMERA PER ME E' NO, SE DIVIDO LA CAMERA CON UN'AMICA NON MI VA DI FARMI VEDERE MENTRE MI FACCIO LA DOCCIA ,CUSCINI TIPO SOTTILETA MA APPENA CHIESTO ME NE E' STATO DATO UNO AGGIUNTIVO, COLAZIONE MOLTO BUONA.

Nice staff, breakfast is good for us Private car parking, very safe

The room is clean and the breakfast was sufficient with many choices. This hotel promotes a laundry room with one washer, one dryer, which is very nice and convenient. However this washer room is there more for the staff, and when I arrived both the washer and dryer were full of blankets, aprons, all unattended. When I asked the one front desk staff for a little help with the machine, at her convenience...

Spectacular A fantastic accommodation: You wilkhave your own parking spot in front of your unit, which a great plus. Great staff, breakfast, and location. Thank you

Wonderful It was my second time there: Wonderful location, quiet while close to everything, great breakfast, and wonderful staff.

The location is remote and the service attitude is poor!

The property is just 7 km from Cefalù and has two small pebble beaches, equipped with umbrellas and sun loungers/deckchairs, good restaurant and bar service, showers, changing rooms and restrooms. The beach is accessible via convenient flights of stairs and can be reached in less than 3 minutes. There are no beach surcharges: first come, first served, subject to availability. Accommodation: Rooms spread...

We were offered this hotel as an alternative to one we'd first booked which became unavailable. Spent 5 days at the Carlton Riviera Hotel and there were both positives and negatives. A beautiful location, right on the coast, so fantastic sea views and private (pebbly) beach onto clear, shallow waters. Plenty of room around the pool. Unfortunately, it's a fair distance from any shops restaurants etc...

Great Hotel affiliated with Italica Hotels and Resorts . Friendly staff excellent food and facilities . Great views and prime position with a handy public bus service to Cefalù centre. There are lots to do for couples and families . Two lovely private beaches with sun beds and umbrellas great pool overlooking the Mediterranean Sea and in the near distance Cefalù . My bedroom was spacious had a nice...

We had a great time. Good weather, good meals and a very pleasant jumbo team. Thank you to the restaurant staff... Giuseppe for the welcome, Antonio for his kindness and Guido for the service as well as the bar and reception.... Only positive things! Only points to improve… red wine and cocktails that are a little light in alcohol.

We stayed at the Carlton Riviera in Cefalu' which has recently been taken over by new hotel group Italica Hotels and Resorts and the service , food, bedroom quality , staff, food and facilities were simply amazing . The position is just 'Location Location Location ) overlooking its beach the sea and Cefalu in the near distance . It's a 10 minutues drive to Cefalu centre and there is a very good public...

On reservation of tables in the restaurant which remain empty for a long time for nothing and prevent those who arrive early from eating at the table of their choice. Mosquitoes spoiling the meal. Some excursions are expensive paid for the service rendered/delivery. Crowded shuttle, some passengers have to make the journey standing...

Location is stunning but the stand out feature was the general staff attitude and customer service in general. Breakfast was great too.

Pros - We were upgraded to a Cabana which had a fantastic whirlpool and was super modern. - The spa facilities are top notch and we loved our spa experience - The dinner at Cala Luna was spot on - The facilities of beach and pool are indicative of its 5 star status - definitely has everything - Lots on offer for breakfast; ingredients were fresh and I could order hot meals off menu which was much appreciated...

The staff are so helpful and the service is amazing. The breakfast is plentiful and tasty. We had a wonderful time at this gem of a hotel.

Most beautiful location I have ever seen. I had breakfast included which was fantastic. The staff was amazing!

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay here. It's a very nice hotel with excellent, well-maintained facilities and restaurants that are very good value for money. That said, the standout feature was the quality of the customer service - every single member of staff couldn't do enough for us and could be 100% relied upon when it came to booking taxis, restaurant tables, etc

We felt very well taken care of from the moment we stepped on the property. Very beautiful and updated. Nice 1-mile walk to main Cefalu area or shuttle service offered. Unique and very quiet hotel.

The hotel is situated at a convenient and central location for Acireale. There is everything you might need nearby and a pretty little park just across the street. The room was clean and well made, the bed was comfortable and I appreciated having an empty minibar fridge. The one thing I am unhappy with is the lack of availability in the hotel's parking. I booked three rooms at this hotel because we...

Staff very friendly Flexible.

Nicola Maitre is a wonderful guy! Anto is super nice and warm❤️ Vincenzo of reception is good. Room is clean , location is great!

This hotel was exactly what I needed. Lovely and comfortable inside, beautiful park across the street, private parking which I badly wanted, and such a friendly and helpful staff. Delicious breakfast too.

My comments are for the 3rd floor suite. Other guests told us other rooms were small. 3rd floor suite was large with large and very usable bathroom. Also includes private outside dining area on the roof. If you are trying to decide whether to splurge for the suite, I would say it is worth it. Breakfast is mostly typical Italian but they do include eggs. Drinking water is not included. Hotel...

This hotel is welcoming and easy to access. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The hotel has lots of attraction nearby, restaurants , bars and beautiful square. You won’t got wrong with a visit. A good place to stay if you want to get the Mount Etna

Very nice hotel, good breakfast and very clean

If you are travelling to or near Enna, this is the place to stay! Recently renovated it was fantastic. Clean, spacious, modern rooms very comfortable beds and big bathroom. Beautiful views! Located in the heart of upper Enna you can practically walk to anything,. The staff was exceptional. Rosa the front desk attendant was so helpful and would make sure everything was taken care of . Even the...

The hotel is beautiful, rooms are awesome, best hotel we stayed at in Italy, I highly recommend this hotel it will not disappoint.

I really liked staying in this hotel. There is an old-world elegance about it, which is enhanced by the kindness of the older generation who continue to insure the comfort of their guests, and the seriousness of the employees. The breakfast food was great, and the view is the "cherry on the cake!" I would certainly stay there again if I ever return to Enna.

Friendly clean , great views, good sightseeing. Wonderful modern bathroom in atmospheric art deco hotel

Rooms were clean, though a little spare. Beds were hard - some like this some dont. Shower was tiny, hardly large enough to turn around in. Staff were friendly, helpful.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything I needed. The room was very clean, spacious, and comfortable, with all the necessary amenities provided. The location was perfect, close to the main attractions and easy to get around. Breakfast was delicious with a wide variety of options. I came from Georgia, and to my pleasant...

I absolutely loved this place — the staff were incredibly friendly and professional, the food was absolutely delicious, and your lovely, attentive manager, Teona, made everything even better. Thank you for providing such high-quality service!

We stayed at Hotel President for 13 days and overall had a very enjoyable time. The hotel is very clean, and the staff are always happy, friendly, and do their best to help with anything you need. The restaurant staff were especially welcoming every single day—always greeting us with a smile. A special thank you to Enzo, who was always so calm, kind, and attentive. His warm attitude made every mealtime...

This was one of the best hotels I've ever stayed in, the staff were warm, friendly, helpful and informative! My room was cleaned regularly and was in pristine condition, it had a large balcony with breathtaking sea views! The food was excellent and the catering staff were so polite and helpful, they always welcomed me with a big smile! The location of the hotel is perfect for exploring the various...

We have been here 2 times now, I cannot say anything bad about it. The staff that work there are very nice and helpful. The location is also very nice, it has a pool with a bar and right next to it you can go into the ocean. In the restaurant they also serve very nice food. You get greeted when you come in you get greeted with a friendly smile. The rooms are also very beautiful. I would recommend it...

This hotel is modern, well equipped and the staff are delightful. However, for me there were a number of drawbacks. Firstly, if like me you are on a half board basis, be aware that this means breakfast and dinner only. The hotel is not near any shops, bars or restaurants, so coping for yourself in respect of meals and drinks can be a problem. You can buy items from the bar using a pre-paid card, but...

Amazing accomodation. Got an upgrade to a water facing room & i can't describe the incredible view. The location is great, close to the main bus stop, shops & restarants. Pool was a little chilly (late Sept). Room had a nice bathroom and bed were nice & firm.

Good location, good swimming pool for suntan, car park available, elegant in style despite a bit aged

The most amazing experience ever.  The view from our balcony - we stayed on the 4th floor and had the most magnificent view of the sea, the whole Taormina city.  Glorious during the day and spectacular during the night.  The breakfast was beyond expectations. There was so much food, lots of different types of bread. Croissants, egg and bacon, fresh cold meats, cereals, different coffee machines ,...

Hotel with an amazing view! A had a room with sea view and balcony. There is an amazing view to the Ionic sea and Etna from the balcony. The hotel also have a pool and spa zone. A very good place to relax!

It's definitely dated but very clean, very relaxing and just enough away from the crowds that it was super enjoyable. The staff were so helpful and accommodating, and had parking which is so rare in taormina. Pool was terrific, no competing for lounge chairs. Room was a great size and compared to other prices, was very good value.

Booked a double room with a balcony & got allocated a single room with no balcony. Emailed hotel 3 times to refund difference in price & they are ignoring me. Real shame as good hotel in great location but no customer service & don't feel ignoring emails is the response you'd expect from a 4 star hotel. Very disappointing

The hotel has a great location, about a 10-minute walk from Cefalu train station, and a 5-minute walk from the beach. It's also very quiet at night.

The hotel is a 4-minute walk from the train station, making it ideal for train travelers. This was my second stay at the hotel, and I was still very satisfied. I would definitely book this hotel again if I travel there next time.

Clean and comfortable room, good location near beach and train station.

The hotel exceeded expectations, it was clean and hygienic, in fact the transportation was very convenient, it was a five-minute walk from the train station, the room had a large balcony where you could sit and drink coffee, it was much quieter than in a small town.

The location is good, not far from the station, the room is clean and tidy, there is a front desk, the service is warm, the breakfast is of high quality, especially the cold cuts and cheese are very good.

The location is good, just next to the main street, 200 meters from the beach, 15 minutes walk from the main church, there is a great pasta nearby, the room is spacious, the bathroom is also large and very clean, the bed is very comfortable, the breakfast is not bad, free parking, the service staff is warm and lovely, a hotel I like very much.

Desk staff not very attentive and clearer signage is needed at the entrance. Overall, nice comfortable room with a good breakfast (breakfast staff very good)

i STAYED AT THE WAVE HOTEL IN AUGUST. THE HOTEL WAS VERY CLEAN, MY ROOM WAS EXCELLENT, THE STAFF GREAT AND BREAKFAST GOOD. I ENJOYED MY STAY

We had two weeks at the Wave hotel this August and had a brilliant time. All of the staff were very friendly and efficient. Nothing was too much trouble for them. We had a lovely breakfast every day and there was a good selection of different foods. We ate a the restaurant in the evening and it was very good. Also the pool was kept immaculate and there was a little pool bar bar selling drinks...

Nice fishing town close to the hotel. I will rate it as average overall.

A large group of us stayed at Wave during a 3-night tour. We used the Wave hotel as our base. The reception staff were organised and welcoming. Our room was clean and fresh. The balcony had clear views of Mount Etna where at night, a slight lava flow from the volcano can be seen. Good Breakfast was served by welcoming and friendly staff and was of good variety and quality. A short walk down to the...

The hotel was very accommodating and supplied us with charging facility for our electric car at a very reasonable price.

Modern and clean bathroom. Comfortable mattress. Friendly bellhop, though the front desk was a bit limited. Good breakfast. The insulation feels a bit thin, and with wood floors we heard every dropped coin and corridor conversation. Quiet streets on both sides.

The staff were friendly and the rooms were large and clean. Breakfast had a good selection, breads and pastries, yoghurts, fruit and cereals. Hotel is in a quiet street.

Lovely hotel with garden courtyard. Breakfast had a great selection and enjoyed sitting having breakfast in the courtyard. Not too far to walk to the train station , about 15 mins and the bus stop for the Alibus to the airport was about 7 min walk.

I stayed at this hotel for two weeks and I have to say it was truly amazing! The location is perfect, the staff is friendly and professional, and the room are clean and comfortable. The breakfast was a real treat, with a wide selection of option to suit all tastes. Also the staff are friendly and professional. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for high- quality experience! I'll definitely...

A pleasant, clean hotel with an old world charm from the 50's. Our room was clean and quite, the bed (2 singles pushed together) was very hard. Breakfast was good with fresh fruit and pastries. It is a 20 minute walk the main street and eateries, and situated in an old and run down area. Overall we were happy with the accommodation and would use it again. Thank you to the management and staff for...

The hotel is magnificent, with a beautiful little garden and corridors. The staff speaks excellent English, making communication easy. They are warm, friendly, and very helpful. The 24-hour front desk is a rare find. The location is a 10-15 minute walk from major attractions, the train station, and the bus station.

Fantastic hotel on the Cyclops seafront in Acitrezza. The terrace restaurant where breakfast is served is excellent. For those who don't want to stay overnight, there are restaurants and bars within walking distance.

Lovely view and hotel but hard to get to via public transport. We loved our breakfast and dinner at the hotel too. Overall lovely stay.

Nice hotel directly at the sea in quiet location with big rooms if you go for the bigger rooms. Breakfast buffet is very nice as well. The one small thing I did not like is the following: their website advertises a whirlpool in the room. However, there is just a regular sized bathtub with jets. This is certainly no whirlPOOL. Staff is friendly and attentive.

We stayed at this hotel 7 days as a first part of our honeymoon. When we entered the room, we were greeted with a bottle of prosecco as a gift from the owner which was lovely! The room was very clean, the staff was kind to us and even helped us rent a car for a fair price. The breakfast was great with plenty of choice- from eggs to cakes. In general, we loved it!

The property is beautiful and very well-maintained. The only drawback is the lack of private parking. Breakfast could be more varied, but it's still very good.

The location is spectacular, situated directly across from the sea, which provides a wonderful dining experience with a great view. The rooms are modestly appointed. However, parking is a significant issue, as it is only available on the street and finding a parking space can be quite frustrating. While I would likely dine there again for the views and food, I would not choose to stay there due to...

Clean, not a bad breakfast, twenty minutes walk to the sights.

Staying here as a transit point to Syracuse and Taormina, the hotel is conveniently located near various attractions and shopping streets, though a bit far from the train station. There's a bus stop right outside, but you need to buy your tickets in advance at the tobacco shop. There's also a convenient airport bus stop where you can buy tickets on board. The front desk staff were very friendly, welcoming...

It is recommended not to come to this city, the streets are dirty and the hotel rooms are the only clean places in the city. The room was very big and it was the only 4-star hotel I stayed in Italy that provided disposable slippers, and they were of very good quality. I stayed in 16 4-star hotels in Italy in one month. The heating was just not enough, it was only 11 degrees at night in early April...

Friendly staff, adequate breakfast, room a bit small with wardrobe not easily accessible

The hotel does not have free parking, and you need to pay to park in a nearby commercial parking lot. The description of the Ctrip booking that there is a parking lot is misleading.

Good hotel with excellent price

Relax hotel is a great example of Sicilian family establishment, where one can feel like at home. Chef cook from Palermo surprise u every evening with variations of Sicilian cuisine. “Mezza pensione” is a good option, since it’s includes breakfast and supper ( 2 main courser, drink and desert). We stayed 5 nights. Of particular importance is the two pool available on the territory, small for children...

Had an amazing experience at the property....special thanks to hospitality of Mr @Frenchasco. Enjoyed the local cuisine to it's core. The most memorable of all dishes were the potato dippers and the pesto sauce freshly prepared and served with spegetti.

Nice Stay Family of four adults staying in one room. It is an older hotel and you have to drive past a depressed area, but the staff was nice, the room adequate and dinner and the breakfast was good.

We stayed here for four nights on our trip around Sicily. They have a large pool that was very refreshing since it was hot. It's a bit out of the way but an easy taxi ride to anywhere you want to go. I recommend Ortigia Island for the shopping, sights and restaurants.

Very beautiful and quite place for relaxation. All the staff was very polite and happy to help with your needs.

A good hotel outside Ortigia and near the Greek Theater. A very large pool and always clean rooms. Excellent hospitality.
