Best experience when traveling with dogs. There were dog bowls with water and food ready for us on arrival. There is a bit of green around the hotel so it's OK to walk the dogs. Everything else was also superb. Including breakfast, bed, the room etc.

The sea view of the room and proximity to the beach is exceptional! We like the lightweight curtain as to awake us to enjoy the beautiful view and the weather here. There are quite a lot good restaurants nearby and it is also very convenient to travel to Taormina by bus. We will definitely come back for a longer stay next time :)

Very nice boutique hotel, extremely well situated in Catania, with minimalist yet stylish (and spacious) room. The hotel staff were very friendly. The restaurant - both for dinner and breakfast - is a must! The dinner was delicious and the wine amazing. The breakfast was equally wonderful with a lot of tasty and local products. I would definitely recommend this place for any stay in Catania and hope to be back.

My best vacation. Taormina Garden Hotel is not only a place with a beautiful garden and access to a small, quiet beach. Thanks to the people, it really is more than that. Angelo is like an angel who will take care of your good mood and is a guide to Sicilian cuisine. Every evening you can enjoy a wonderful dinner and listen to his stories about the dish, all prepared with fresh local products. I've never had such a rest. The kindness of people is endearing. I can't wait for my next stay!!!

FAQs about hotels in Sicily

An Island of Intrigue

The largest Italian island, Sicily has long been a place of mystery and intrigue, coveted by civilisations. Its Greek history is most evident at Agrigento whose UNESCO World Heritage-listed Valley of the Temples has amazingly well-preserved Greek temples.

Also important to Greece was Siracusa. Archimedes was born here and there is a theatre and necropolis to explore. However, the most spectacularly located Greek theatre is at Taormina. Set on a hill overlooking the glorious Mediterranean Sea, this theatre points towards Mount Etna smoking away in the distance above Catania. Picturesque Taormina is one of the most popular Sicily resorts and down below there are some wonderful Giardini Naxos hotels on the beach, available on Booking.com.

Another resort boasting some of the best Sicily hotels for families is fabulous Cefalù. Home to a lovely beach, this small town is dramatically located at the foot of a mountain. To the north-west are the Aeolian Islands (also known as the Lipari Islands), volcanic islands with plunging cliffs and secret coves.

Back on the main island, the capital Palermo is a seductive mix of amazing architecture and laidback life. Trapani to the west is known for its salt flats, whereas Messina to the east is where trains drive straight onto the ferry to Reggio Calabria on the Italian mainland.

    This is my second time at this resort. It is so peaceful, surrounded by trees. Beach is amazingly beautiful. Pools- you are spoilt for choice. The animation team is great!!!We had a soft spot for Tommaso, he was so humble and kind and funny ...but truly all of them were great 😁 The staff at the pool bar were always gentle and professional too. Perfect place if you want to relax, especially with kids. Kids clubs are amazing, however kids need to know Italian, as most of the team are Italian speaking only.

    Palermo was a delightful surprise, a gem of a town.

    Palermo was a delightful surprise, a gem of a town. It's clear that tourism, as we know it today, is still a relatively new phenomenon here, and there's much left to explore. However, that is also part of the charm of the place. Everything feels incredibly authentic; the people are kind, caring, and spontaneous, embracing the wave of tourists curious about what the city has to offer. In general, I found many individuals to be open-hearted and genuinely interested in showcasing the best of Sicily. The beauty of Palermo lies in finding a cozy corner, enjoying a nice coffee, gelato, beer, or limoncello spritz, and simply soaking in the ambiance. It's a wonderful opportunity to observe how simple and beautiful life is in Palermo. I will definitely be back.beautiful life is in Palermo. I will definitely be back.

    Like many other places in Sicily Catania is an enigma!

    Like many other places in Sicily Catania is an enigma! It has lots of history, great buildings, squares and pocket gardens - all worth a visit. The botanic garden is a delight! Plenty of shops and of course places to eat. The enigma is that the charm is often lost in the ruggedness of the place! Nevertheless, amongst the traffic and busyness of the city, charm can be found and thus it can be said Catania is a really fascinating place. We enjoyed Catania in the morning (coffee and granita) but the best time is after 9pm when the place is buzzing with people out having meals.

    Ortigia is where you need to stay and be

    Ortigia is where you need to stay and be Perfect for strolling through the streets, shopping, eating, drinking, soaking up the atmosphere and people watching There isn't a beach as such on Ortigia-mostly stone areas or areas with platforms. Best bet the beach club Zefiro Solurium. Which is next to the most beach like beach. And whilst it is miniscule, dipping in the sea is nice. And steps from the beach club Moon in Ortigia is a plant based restaurant and cocktail place. Amazing! In Siracusa itself a visit to the archaeological Park is a must. Very interesting

    Taormina is a fabulous city perched on a high cliff, with fantastic sights, nightlife, restaurants and shopping. There are good transport options with buses and trains from the Airport and to all other destinations on the island. walking around the town there are lots of level streets but also lots of slopes and high steps. We ate in many of the restaurants and would recommend Al Gardino which is located a few mins walk from our hotel. The Food in all the restaurants was delicious with each having a different pasta, fish and meats options. We walked through Parco Florence Trevelyan each evening and that is a must see either during the day or evening. The beach did not impress as they were jammed with beds which cost €30 each! rip off....

    I love both beaches and lively city centers at the same time and Trapani can offer that. A perfect cable car trip directly from Trapani to historic Erice. A beautiful sunset and a view of the illuminated Trapani. Interesting places in the vicinity: Segesta and Selinunte archeological parks, the very unusual Nuova Gibellina (plus Cretto di Buri) and bustling Palermo with majestic monuments. There are plenty of great restaurants in Trapani. I can't miss the Meno Tredici gelateria in the harbor and the great arancini at Al Pollero da Roberto.

    Indications for people who driving there are poor, I was lost, I pass in front the entrance without realizing it, poor indicators. I stop and I find another car lost too. The car parking too expensive, the entrance tickets expensive, I went really early before there were too many people, I was able to take selfies for the more important monuments without any wait line. You must be ready with plenty of water, if you are going in summer time because its a really long walk under very strong summer lights. I guess you must see it at least once on your life, like everything relevant from our pass times. Obviously I am a simply tourist without knowledge about architecture. For those that understand I am sure must be fascinating.

    Beautiful town, full of life at night. Easily walkable, flat streets. Beach is nice and long, with multiple free areas. It's a gorgeous scene with the huge mountains, and lighthouse at the other end. It is definitely more of a touristy feel, as we went in August. Definitely explore up and down the peninsula, as there's excellent beaches and coves to swim at as well!

    Giardini-Naxos and the surrounding towns are, however, unusually dirty, with a lot of litter scattered along the streets. The beach, on the other hand, has wonderfully clean and clear water. People are helpful. Traveling around, take time. The only rush is in traffic. If you travel by rental car, it helps to have a good map reader in the passenger seat and a calm mind. Honking is simply a part of the traffic culture. A motorcyclist may pass you on either the right or the left. Focus on the traffic is the most important thing. When choosing a rental car, you should go for one with medium power. Otherwise, it may not make it up the hills. We had a Toyota Yaris 1500 Petrol Hybrid Automatic. It was ok. An automatic gearbox makes driving easier.
