Moments from the central train station, this is a well run and hospitable hotel that is perfect for the train traveller. The front desk was efficient and helpful at all times. There is great corner pub just a block away and it’s a short walk to the best sites in Messina.
I enjoyed the 24 desk. I felt safe at this hotel. Everyone was friendly. I stayed 3 nights and the breakfast was amazing. They had so much. Stay here you will love it
Excellent property!
Clean spacious room.
Excellent breakfast.
Wonderful staff.
Great location, convenient to shopping and sites. Close to train. 5 minute walk.
The hotel is very well maintained for an older property. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. The front desk staff spoke English which was helpful for someone trying to learn Italian. The full breakfast that was included with the cost of the room was excellent and a nice surprise.
Nice comfortable older hotel. Not far from some of the better sights of Messina. Good breakfast, attentive serving staff, english speaking hotel desk staff as well. Older hotel could use some updating but clean and comfortable.
It was a nice surprise to find out the breakfast was free,as it says in the discription it is 10 euros person. It was a very good breakfast lots of choices

Ok for one night!
Hotel was ok for one night stay while driving around Sicily. It is somewhat outdated. Renovation would help.
Perfect location. Staff are very friendly. Our room was on the top floor and the view was amazing.

The moaning and groaning of the plumbing made me laugh. Never heard such sounds. I would stay here again. Close to the train station and ferry and just two blocks from the main shopping street.
Only stayed one night, a little dated (some might say authentic) but perfectly located for walking to the port or train station. The breakfast was varied and decent. I’d stay there again.

Good location friendly people awesome breakfast too much construction going on
The hotel was under renovation on outside. Interior was outdated and requires renovation as well. Elevator from garage was out of order and had to walk around the block to enter the hotel. Staff was very friendly. Room was big. Walking distance to center, shops and restaurants.
