We had the most lovely stay at Antico Borgo Etneo. Conveniently located 5 minutes from the train station, the property is gorgeous, our room was very clean and relatively cool considering we were in the middle of a heat wave. Great hospitality and a scrumptious breakfast (we’ll be thinking about that lemon chiffon cake for ages). We would stay again the next time in Calatabiano. Grazie a tutti!

Super staff!
My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. It felt like we were staying as a guest at someones home. The best part of this stay was the staff. Franchesca was a true pleasure. She made sure our stay was perfect and was always working day and night to make sure everyone was happy. Her mother Giusy was wonderful as well. She ran the breakfast in the mornings and helped out with guests as well. Was a great experience from staying at a regular hotel. I would definitely stay here again.

Peaceful countryside getaway with great views
Nice place to stay if you are travelling near Catania. It is located between Catania and Taormina (both ~30 mins drive), so it was convenient for us to explore both. Limited dining options in the area and we have been told the on-site dinner is only available on Sunday and Monday. For us, we drove to Taormina for dinner which was lovely.
The room was clean and in good condition. The extra heater was very useful as the weather was a bit cold. Basic amenities such as room slippers, shampoo, body wash and water are provided. The breakfast was more than enough with wide choice of bread, cheese, ham, eggs and fruits. The dining room had abundance of history as well.
Overall the place was very quite and peaceful - we were not bothered by the noise from the roads like the other reviews. However on the night we stayed, the owner of the place had a mini party on the terrace until midnight with music. The building isn’t soundproof so we could hear the drum, the footsteps, etc. But everything went radio silent once it was over.

It's perfectly located between Taormina and Etna surroundings to spend some days around the area. Anyway, the best part of the place are the hosts and the breakfast. Francesca was the kindest person we found around Sicily and made us feel super comfortable. THANK YOU!

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre nuit dans l'appartement très confortable, très bien équipé entouré d'un environnement arboré. L'emplacement est bien situé et mérite cependant une meilleure protection contre le bruit de la route. Nous avons bien profité de cette étape qui offre plein d'activités aux alentours.
Nous recommandons.

Tout a été parfait. Francesca a été notre pilier de notre séjour. Adorable, d'une gentillesse hors norme. Merci à elle pour son aide du early checkin à la commande de la pizza.
Petit dej très bien, chambre grande et confortable. une vue sur l'Etna superbe.
Le vin blanc dans la chambre super bon.
Une maison agréable.
Nous sommes restés une nuit de plus du coup :)

Great property with very kind and helpful staff. Location perfect for visiting Etna, Taormina and other attractions, close to the very nice beach. Rooms are nice and comfortable, just rooms have a bit thin walls, but overall we would stay here again.

Bellissimo!
Un angolo incantato!
Immerso in una splendida vegetazione antico casale ristrutturato con gusto. Camere confortevoli; noi siamo in 4 e la camera era in realtà composta da 2 stanze, ciascuna dotata di condizionatore.
Ottima biancheria, tutto molto pulito e curato nei dettagli.
La signora che ci ha accolto gentilissima.
Colazione deliziosa: ho gradito soprattutto la frutta fresca a volontà e torte e marmellate fatte in casa!
Peccato solo per il rumore dell'autostrada vicina.
Lo consiglio vivamente

Good Stay
Hotel was simple. We were under the impression that there would be dinner each night, but it's only available on the weekends. The room was very clean and simple. The breakfast was delicious! Fresh, homemade croissants each morning!
The only downside was the the dark driveway. Coming back late at night involved unlocking/locking the gate, parking and then walking up to the rooms. It made me a bit nervous (and I'm a NYer) with how dark the property was at night. This was not a dealbreaker, but something to think about.
