A great place for a stopover in Messina

A great little place, just up the road from the Duomo, and a shortish walk from the train station. Handily located for buses and amenities. Nice to have a kitchen supplied with various breakfast items and coffee to help yourself to. Nice clean room. Antonella, our hostess, was friendly and super helpful. And Messina is a great stopover - the museum is well worth a visit (with 2 Caravaggios among other things) and the beach at Torre Faro is one of Italy's best. Don't just change trains here!

Best value stay in Sicily. And better than most mid-range places I stayed in in Italy

Excellent location. Street parking was easy to find. Large, comfortable, attractive room with good facilities. Great value for money. My best value stay in Sicily so I booked it again on my way back to the mainland.

friendly host, lovely room, perfect for short stay.

A quite small but lovely room in a B&B apartment with more guests. It has a bathroom with a great rain shower, a small fridge and in fact everything needed for two days. To get in, the host advised us by phone and gave the code t oget hte keys. The rest followed smoothly. Antonella was very friendly and helped with booking taxis and gave advise about restaurants and bars. The area is perfect, close to the cathedral square, a pedestrian area full of restaurants and bars, and the taxi stand nearby.

Excellent location

Excellent location and hosts were extremely helpful. Our check-in was quite late but Antonella kept in contact with us to make sure that we had settled in. She was also very helpful in forwarding some restaurant recommendations which we really appreciated.

Fantastic stay

Il galleone is excellent. Great location. Well presented. Quiet. Great snack options in the kitchen. I was so impressed with what I had to choose from. Thank you. From the initial booking until the morning of check out I was so pleased with the level of contact that I had from the hosts at Il galleone. It made the experience even better that I could have expected. I would definitely stay again when visiting Messina.
