    outdoor pool
    mold smell
    poor quality control

    Beautiful outdoor pool with amazing views.

    We were initially given a room that was unbearable. The musty mold smell was overwhelming, and I could see mold on the ceiling. After complaining, we were finally moved to a better room, but the experience left a bad taste in my mouth.

    scenic views
    dilapidated decor
    poor maintenance

    Beautiful views of Mount Etna, Large outdoor pool, Serene garden areas

    The outdated decor desperately needs a fresh coat of paint!!! Maintenance issues in the bathrooms severely detract from the overall experience. Careful attention to cleanliness in common areas is essential!!!

    Incredible views of Mount Etna from the balcony. The dining area seemed a bit lifeless with no warm atmosphere. Check out the bike tours for some fun around the area.

    spectacular pool
    great location
    fun experience
    noisy party

    The location is perfect, so close to the local shops and eateries. Do note that the breakfast was nice, but the scrambled eggs left something to be desired. Overall, fantastic stay!

    We experienced a noisy party in the nightclub across the street that went on until 2 a.m. and it was quite disruptive to our sleep. I suggest checking if there are noisy events planned during your stay.

    stunning views
    lacking breakfast options

    The hotel had a beautiful location with stunning views of

    Mount Etna. The serene gardens were a perfect escape, although the breakfast options were a bit lacking. I appreciated the friendly staff, but the dining room could certainly use more attention to detail.

    Our stay at the Excelsior Palace Hotel was magnificent! The breathtaking views from our room overlooked the stunning Ionian Sea, and the beautifully maintained gardens added a sense of tranquility. The pool area was fantastic for relaxing, and the staff were wonderfully friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home.

    stunning views
    fantastic pool
    fresh orange juice
    dining service

    I recently stayed in a lovely hotel with stunning views of Mount Etna and enjoyed the fantastic pool area. The breakfast buffet was delightful, especially with the fresh orange juice I could squeeze myself, but the dining service at dinner could have been better. Overall, I would definitely come back!
