Our stay at this hotel was simply wonderful, nestled within breathtaking citrus groves and offering stunning views of Mount Etna. The unique and beautifully designed rooms provided a peaceful retreat, though the proximity to the train tracks could be a concern for some regarding noise. The dining experiences were exceptional, especially in the Michelin-star restaurant, which truly stood out. Unfortunately, the breakfast options left a bit to be desired in terms of variety.
