“Great place to stay. Near one of the Ferry piers”
Guiseppe was so kind. He waited for us to arrive, gave us a sea view and advice about the local area. Room was comfortable and there was a supermaket nearby. Parking was on site and secure, a great comfort for people not used to parking in Sicily. Breakfast was great. Plenty of food snd plenty of choice.

The service at this hotel was excellent. The rooms have a modern style—comfortable, stylish, and very appealing. When we left, the warm and thoughtful host even gave our child pastries and juice. There is a free parking lot available. On the same street, there’s a large local supermarket where you can enjoy delicious local food at very reasonable prices.

“FANTASTIC HOTEL for location for ferry to Villa San Giovanni train station”
Where to start! FANTASTIC place to stay. We fell victim to the rail strike so needed to be by the ferry port sooner than planned. I booked the property last minute. Giovanni, I presume the manager, was so communicative and helpful. He went above and beyond to help us when we arrived late. Breakfast was great, ample food and good coffee. Giovanni insisted we take some provisions from breakfast for our onward train journey. He also gave us a bottle of water to take. So very kind. FANTASTIC service FANTASTIC hotel / location for ferry for Villa San Giovanni train station FANTASTIC hotel HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
