It is amazing how much you can get for such a little prize…read more The appartment is nice and warm, all the rooms have tv air conditioning and a neat furniture set. Breakfast in the little patio is lovely and Marco, the owner helps you to organize the best tour and the yoummiest dinner. In the area ther are a lot of great restaurants my favourites are Marricriu, Santi e Briganti and osteria Agostiniana. The only problems is that you have to reserve this place in advance since marco has only feed rooms!

I really should give it 5 stars but prefer to save 5 stars for the extraordinary. Having said that,…read moreColori del Sole was very nice. As we showed up without reservations, Marco hadn't planned for breakfast in the morning so discounted the room price. What a gentleman he is. He's very attuned to the tourist aspects of the area so spent at least an hour giving us detailed recommendations that all proved to be invaluable. Because of him, we made some discoveries we'd have entirely missed. He speaks good English. As for the location, it is right in the midst of midtown Fiumefreddo with every restaurant and attraction within a few minutes walk. We worried about parking. Marco has slots right there, curb-side for his guests. He even invited us to leave our car there the next day so we could walk the town without parking hassles. I'll bet the breakfast would have been good too.

It's a lovely place for kind of city run away style B&B, but in our case it was a bit of too much…read moresugar coating and we didn't get, what we thought we will. This place would be great for a group that others could sleep in a tent in the yard. That'd be so cool. While you have all kitchen at your disposal, toilet and shower inside. Great view from the garden as well. Mr. Paolo Sessa speaks English quite well.

I've been here last time on 2008 or 09 but any way the quality is the same actually service and…read morelocation are better then before. Food is tasty and you can see how they care in the kitchen about the raw material. They have the respect for it. And you can find that in any bite that you test. We try the chef's starters 12 dishes for short culinary trip. Pachino's Tomatoes skinless and just boiled and then dressed with pepper, salt and oil. You can feel the right flavour of the Pachino's Tomatoes. As starters I get the 3 selection of the season. Really amazing. Unspeakable! You can order to the waiters by tablet were you can find also the pictures of the dishes. What I can say? I'll definitely come back and actually I can't wait. At the end the bill has been really honest compared with the quality of the food and the awesome location. Giuseppe and all the team of the Antica Filanda have passion and attention for them job and you can breath it. Thanks a lot for the amazing lunch and time spent with you and my family.

An nice option in beautiful Francavilla…read more Francavilla is a small town of a few thousand people. Location is excellent. You can view the magnificent Mount Etna.

The property sits within a beautiful orange orchard, giving the entire stay a peaceful, retreat-like feel -- exactly what you want after touring the island. Laura and Alessandro were friendly, professional, and always ready with thoughtful recommendations that made our time in Taormina even better. Our room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. Breakfast was a true highlight; you could tell how much pride went into the presentation and the fresh, quality selections. Overall, a wonderfully relaxing spot and absolutely a place I would return to. Saluti

I am giving this hotel 5 stars based on the price (last minute booking), service and the…read morespectacular view. Check in was easy and the staff is wonderful. Thank you Salvatore for taking such great care of us!!! The breakfast buffet was typical European style. Pretty minimal but they will make cappuccinos and lattes if you request them. You won't be disappointed when you taste the pastry's they offer. The croissants are AMAZING!!! The hotel offers quick and easy access to the center of town - however, be prepared to walk a lot of stairs and climb hills. One thing to take note of is the parking. It's basically nonexistent - you need to drop off your luggage and then try and find parking somewhere on the mountain - it will test your parallel parking skills and your ability to move in small spaces to be certain. We were told it's best to park and abandon the car for the duration of your visit. Good advice!! Give this place a try!

We had a room with two balconies, one overlooking popular church square and the other with the view over the see. If you're not lucky to stay in a room with a view, there's a terrace on the top with deck chairs and tables, so you can enjoy la dolce vita. The room was big and very comfortable. It had everything you need, including a small fridge. The manager was very friendly and helpful with local tips. The only slightly annoying bit was that the cleaners, who come every day, were sometimes moving too many things around and switching off the aircon, but I still 100% recommend it.
