This hotel was the first stop on our Seriously Sicily trip with Saga. The food they supplied for dinner was inedible, vegetables overcooked and the meat was so dry and tastless. This was meant to be a 4 star hotel. They had two about 100 of teenagers staying with a disco and making so much noise to the early hours... More

This was the first hotel in our Seriously Sicily tour with Saga. The hotel was very good, but didn't have many other customers in February. It is about 10 minutes walk in to Noto which is a delightful Baroque town.watch out for the floor numbers - each of them is 2 less than you would expect. Free wifi in reception... More

Well located, friendly staff, spacious and clean room, ample car park (a rare commodity in Sicily). All well in the room, except for the poor acoustic isolation. You will quickly learn about your neighbors ablution habits and choice of TV programs. Take your earplugs along. Breakfast was mediocre compared to what we have experienced in other Sicilian hotels, it could... More

Stayed here 3 nights. The hotel is on outskirts of town, 7 or 8 min walk. Its modern, clean and staff are v helpful. as we had suffered mosquito bites in Taormina I asked about repellant and the receptionist got us a special lamp for our room. Breakfast has variety and swimming pool is clean and spacious.

Big hotel on the outskirts of Noto, but still walking distance to the historical town center. Huge rooms, with A/C, balcony and TV, quite basic but all we needed is a good sleep. Free carpark outside which suited us great. OK breakfast, fresh and something to choose from, nice juices.

3 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 April 2011

This is a spacious, modern and somewhat soulless hotel. It serves its purpose in that the rooms are clean, spacious and quite well appointed if rather devoid of character. Breakfast was adequate, but we have seen far better in 4* hotels, and certainly had better service. Friendly and helpful reception staff.
