Lovely hotel close to Mount Etna and Etnaland
The hotel is conveniently located to Mount Etna and Etnaland. Upon arrival at the hotel we were greeted by Luca and Gabriella (owners), freshly squeezed orange and home- baked cake. The rooms were spacious, comfortable and very clean. Breakfast was a fresh and ample continental style served to your table. Definitely would stay again.

Propriétaires très gentils et serviables. Un excellent déjeuner complet avec confiture maison et même biologique, des oeufs cuits durs, fromage, viande froide, vrai café. Dans la ville de Nicolosi on peut aller y manger à pied. Vraiment à la porte de l'Etna. Emplacement un peu difficle à trouver mais avec un GPS pas de problème.

Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo. Consigliato.
B&B in centro a Nicolosi, i proprietari sono persone affabili e disponibili. Con loro si possono organizzare diverse gite sull'Etna . Le camere sono abbastanza accoglienti e i bagni puliti. Dispongono di parcheggio privato. Punto forte la colazione!
