Overall, our stay wasn't as relaxing as we had expected.
Pros:

The staff were very kind, and the hotel has a lot of potential. The room looked decent at first, but although we were told it had been renovated, the walls were dirty and the room itself lacked charm. There was also no real benefit to having a pool view or a balcony, and despite keeping the sunshades closed, the room still became quite hot.

The breakfast was good, but it was exactly the same every day. It included boiled eggs, croissants, very little fresh fruit (which hardly anyone seemed to eat), and no vegetables at all. On the positive side, the coffee was excellent.

The reception staff were friendly and helpful, but when we asked about visiting Mount Etna, we were directed to a tour on the opposite side of the volcano, about 1.5 hours away. They didn't mention that there is a cable car and quad tours available only about 20 minutes away from the hotel, which would have been much more convenient for us.

Cons:

Our main issue was that the pool is open to the public all day, which we only found out after booking (it seems to be mentioned only on the hotel's website). It was often crowded with locals and children, so it wasn't the relaxing atmosphere we expected. Swimming caps are also mandatory.

The hotel regularly hosts local events. During our stay there were parties that lasted until around 1 a.m., making it difficult to relax.

The property tries to present itself as a luxury hotel i guess, but it feels more like a popular local venue. There's nothing wrong with that, but if you're looking for a peaceful holiday, this may not be the right choice.

We also experienced a power outage one evening, a water outage one morning, and the air conditioning in the room was very loud, fridge was not working properly. Asked for fixing the TV remote but it never happaned.

Only a brief visit - but a great location and excellent hotel & restaurant
Pros:

Stunning location, and a great find. We were only there for one night to fit it Mount Etna Parkrun - just short walk to the start. But it ended up being an amazing 24 hours.
Beautiful room with the round bed & corner balcony. Restaurant was excellent - great food, great value and stunning view of Mount Etna as well ate on the terrace. Hotel recommended a sunrise hike up Etna to see the sunrise over the mainland ..... stunning, the 30 min drive to meet the hike at 3:30 am wasn't ideal but was so worth it. Have warmer clothes- wind was chilly

Cons:

Makes sense, but have to plan ahead to book time at the pool - take a swim cap!!

Un excellent hôtel avec piscine et un très bon accueil, au pied de l'Etna
Pros:

à cause du logiciel confus de Booking, je m'étais trompé de date: on était attendu le lendemain. L'accueil s'est mis en 4 pour nous trouver une chambre à notre arrivée
Un petit parking (14 places?) dans l'hôtel ;un autre très grand à 5' à pied.
Chambre vaste et bien agencée
Piscine très jolie et grande
Restauration :dîner et pdj au top
Germana à l'accueil nous a trouvé une excursion sur l'Etna et a tout arrangé

Cons:

la clim de la chambre était trop bruyante

Pros:

Bel établissement avec ascenseur, très bien situé pour aller vers le sommet de l'Etna, personnel super gentil et toujours à l'écoute. Une jolie piscine avec tout pour s'y reposer et des chambres très propres.

Cons:

Seule petite chose qui pourrait être un vrai plus, mettre du vrai pain au petit déjeuner en plus du pain de mie nature et complet en sachet

Discreta
Pros:

Il posto molto tranquillo , la piscina pulita e molto bella , la cucina molto buona

Cons:

La colazione poteva essere più abbondante , mancavano le crostate , le torte , frutta più abbondante , La camera potrebbe essere migliorata con un mobile per i vestiti invece di un appendi abiti , la stanza purtroppo non era pulita , polvere in tutti i posti ,nel bagno molto calcare nella doccia nel lavandino , si dovrebbe pulire di più , anche per una maggiore igiene , la camera era spaziosa .

Cons:

The reception staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a problem with the air conditioner, and since there was no other room available, they gave us a full refund so we could move to another hotel. We really appreciated their professionalism and excellent customer service.
