The garden of the hotel is in fact an extensive mainly paved area around a large,clean pool with large palms and banana plants etc adding a tropical feel. Plenty of space and sunbeds. Also three large car parking areas. However, the actual hotel is very much a business hotel whose guests are fed in one of the most souless dining... More

This is a review of two halves. There were some very good points about the hotel, but a few downsides as well. We stayed for four nights in all, taking day trips in the car each day. On the positive, we found the hotel location outside of the city to be convenient for us. It was close to the motorway... More

We were three nights. Three couples, the hotel is very clean. Furniture is old and charming. Excellent swimming pool and tropical garden around. A good place to return after a day trip, very quiet place

Very, very quiet place, fabulous pool area in the garden, 25 m pool where you can actually have a swimming workout or just lay down lazy. No trafic around, you... More

The Garden Hotel was modern, clean, and the staff was helpful and friendly. A standout was Lorenzo, our driver that picked us up at the airport and shuttled us to/from town. You have to know going in that this hotel is miles from Catania proper. You can take a shuttle into town from the hotel, but it costs 35 Euros... More

We were really looking forward to my stay in this 4* hotel as the pictures (especially the swimming pool) looked amazing and were couldn't wait to get there. The hotel was in the middle of nowhere but wasn't that far from the airport, so we had to pay astronomical amount for our taxi (90 Euros). The location of the hotel... More

The Garden Hotel is not easy to find, although close to the motorway. If you are driving yourself, get a good map and have plenty of patience. You need a car unless you intend staying in the hotel all your stay. The hotel is pleasantly decorated, clean, tidy and fairly well maintained. The staff were helpful. Unfortunately the pool(outdoor) was... More
