"We had an excellent stay at Al Castello! Paolo was a magnificent host, with excellent restaurant and entertainment recommendations. He greeted us each morning at breakfast with coffees and special treats, as we watched Mount Etna fuming in the distance. He also helped us park and load the car. The room was clean and comfortable and the hotel itself was convenient for the sights. I would absolutely recommend a stay! Thanks for everything Paolo!"

10/10 Excellent
"This place was the best part of our trip. The host was on site and very helpful with everything we needed. Our room was front and center to look out over the Mediterranean Sea. It was so nice to take time out to relax. We had a few meals in the attached restaurant and they were made by the host who was also the Chef. A man of many hats and talents. This hotel is the shining star on the beach. It was a bit challenging getting to the Hotel as one has to cross under the train tracks through a short tunnel to access the coastline but it was cool. There was a grocery store within walking distance which gave us some fresh fruit and snacks."

"Our hosts were fantastic. They met us at the Hotel and made us very welcome. Explained everything to us. We had plenty of room to spread out our stuff. It was very convenient to many places and especially the waterfront. There was a table and a few chairs to sit on to have our drinks on. The decor was quite unique. Several pictures of ladies in scanty attire. Lol. There were books everywhere which would have been interesting if we could speak or read Italian. The only disappointing thing was the "Breakfast Included". It consisted of pre packaged buns and pastries and some juice boxes in the fridge."

"Convenient location to reach beach, restaurants and shopping as well as the ferry terminal and train. All walkable. Room was spacious. Shower was great! Breakfast was very good. Hotel staff was excellent. We didn’t like the immediate area outside the hotel which was dirty, garbage, etc. The “sea view” room we reserved didn’t have a great view due to construction. More a view of an adjacent parking lot."
