Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
“A four-star open since 1904 on a promontory at the entrance to the historic centre, with the largest Mediterranean park in town, a panoramic pool and views to Etna and the Bay of Naxos. Rooms are traditional with sea or park views. It suits dog owners who want green space and a short walk to Corso Umberto. Dogs are accepted on request.

Why it's in the collection

The hotel's large Mediterranean park is the standout for lead walks, unusual for a town hotel, and Corso Umberto and the Villa Comunale gardens are a short stroll. This is a hilltop setting with stairs and steep lanes. The beach is reached by cable car or car.
