The Etna hotel is a little bit of heaven in Giarre I loved this hotel, the staff were so friendly, the hotel was very clean, the whole place is so relaxed. It really was lovely. I was heartbroken to leave. Will definitely be back. My one grumble is we did not realise how far it was from anything so car... More

We had a very pleasant stay here. The pool area is large and pretty and does offer some great views of Etna, particularly from the lawn area. Only downer is the loop of 90's pop music from the next door restaurant every evening. Though the restaurant, which I can recommend, is literally attached to the hotel it somehow has a... More

We arrived in Sicily from the port in Messina. Practically the entire trip from Messina to Giarre is along ribbon development of dirty, grimy soviet-style development. As you get within %km, 3km, 2km of the hotel your heart sinks lower and lower. Oh my God no. After the disappointment that is Scalea surely we're not going to find a new... More

The converted buildings offer excellent accomodation and the swimming... More

beautiful location, nice rooms, good service, nice garden More

We have just returned from a week at the Etna Hotel and found it comfortable. The rooms are very good, the service is excelent and the style is comfortable. With a view on the Etna it's a perfect place to start your sightseeing in the region. More

I stayed at the Hotel Etna in April 2008. The room I was given was very poor compared to the photos available , in fact i would call it pokey. The only available natural light or ventilation was by having the door to the room open , and as this was between reception and the main courtyard it didn't give... More

We have just returned from a 4 night break at the Etna Hotel and found it particularly clean, comfortable and well located. It is easily found from Catania airport (about three quarters of an hour and very clearly signposted). I think each room in this modernised historic property was different, but we were allocated a lovely one close to the... More
