“Basic hotel with terrible reception”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 December 2010
1
person found this review helpful

We arrived on the island and there were no signs on how to get to the hotel. As we were not sure how to get there and it was raining, we asked for some help from a local who drove us there for 10 Euros - a 2 minute drive. We booked through the internet with a confirmation but when we got there they did not have our reservation. After twenty minutes we were able to get a room. As well when we left the person at reception could not speak English, Gernan nor ITALIAN. As well we had to pay cash and we did not get any receipt or invoice. The breakfast was poor and the room itself was dark. There were no curtains so if you wanted light you needed to open the shutters which allowed the other guests to watch you. In general, this was the only hotel in Sicily where we can say we were disappointed. We scored value in the middle due to the fact that the island is more expensive in general to stay on then Sicily.

person found this review helpful

Absolutly loved this place, will definatly go back again.
Nicely located, and only a few minutes walk from the beaches, shop, bars and restaurants.
The pool was fantastic, ideal for that early morning swim, or late evening dip!
Very helpful staff, and good to see people really happy and jolly whilst working.

“Aeolian Jewel!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 July 2009

Perfect place to stay! Staff are so friendly and the place is so relaxing. I highly recommend this hotel for so many things, the swimming pool and jacuzzi, the wonderful view from the sun loungers, of the volcano, and the location was ideal, an easy stroll to the shops, Port Levante, the beach and mud baths. The restaurant that the hotel recommends, and uses for their half board and full board paying guests, was great! Good tasty fresh food, with plenty to choose from. Great portion sizes and I loved the grilled fish! We where on a B&B rate at the hotel, but we made use of the voucher system that the hotel has with the restaurant, €18 pp for a 3 course meal, we found it very good value for money, and better than some of the other restaurants on the island.
Breakfast was good, a nice buffet of fruits, fruit juices, yogurts, cereals, pastries, croissants, cheeses, hams, salamis, and teas and coffees....(obviously no hot English breakfast, in Europe in general they dont do thay type of breakfast...but i found i didnt miss it at all, as the buffet was more than ample) The staff really are easy going and friendly, and allow you to bring in stuff from the local supermarket, for having a snack by the pool. We had no problems at all with the smell from the mud baths at this hotel, and it was mosquito free, which was a big bonus! I will definatly go back !

“A clean hotel with wonderful pool (vulcano view) and friendly staff”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 June 2009
1
person found this review helpful

We found this hotel by coincidence, it was a very nice surprise.
Rooms are nice, clean and renovated.
The location is near the vulcano (easy access for excursions). It is also near the port, beach and fungi.
The big plus is for the wonderful well-done exterior pool/Jacuzzi that have a great view on the vulcano.
I would defenitely recommend this hotel
