My wife and I were looking forward to some down time after touring Sicily. Auto to auto combat with Italian drivers left us tired and stressed. We reviewed TripAdvisor on Hotel La Bussola and we were not disappointed. Keep in mind that the hotel is not located on the beach but the beach is only 5 minutes away by car.... More

I really didn't want to leave La Bussola! We were made very welcome by family and staff and nothing was too much trouble. Even though this is a 3 star hotel, the rooms must be 4 star standard, very stylish, especially the bathrooms, with plenty of room for suitcases in an inner lobby and lots of hangars, fridge and air...
