Province of Messina Vacation Rentals

"Nice"

"Very nice comfortable room although our room lacked a decent view. We had a recurring problem with the keycard failing to open the door to our room. After repeated trips to the front desk they eventually gave us a physical key which worked fine. The hotel had a terrific hot breakfast with great variety. The location is very good just uphill from the pedestrian area. We used the valet service for our rental car which worked fine. Be careful driving the one way road to reach the hotel. The road turns right at the Messina Gate and a block up the street you MUST turn right through a narrow arch to reach the hotel. If you miss this turn you will spend 20-30 minutes on a confusing route to have another go at it. "

"Very nice hotel, great location. Rooftop bar is a great space, and Giussepe (Peppino) was terrific - professional, friendly and a great bartender."

"This was a wonderful property. From the time we arrived to the time we left the staff were wonderful, helpful and responsive . The room had a beautiful patio with incredible views. The area of the hotel is about a 5 min walk from the main shopping and dining street, which we appreciated. It’s also close to the lovely park. We would highly recommend this hotel. "

"This hotel is a total dump. Rooms are outright unsafe and full of black mold. Missing and loose floor boards are a tripping hazard. Does not look anything like the photos in the Expedia listing and booking info. Massively overpriced, old and falling apart literally. "

"Good size room and we had an amazing view off our balcony. Shower stall is very small and uncomfortable. The breakfast spread is incredible, but I was disappointed that the hotel bar/restaurant had a very limited menu. There were about 10 items listed but they only had 4-5 of them available."

"Hated the labyrinthine corridors to get to our rooms and the views are disappointing."

"Outstanding stay and impeccable service!"

"If you need a hotel with stunning views and great access to the cable car, this is the place. The staff's response is immediate. For any request, their answer is YES, and then they clarify what is needed. They react promptly to minor complaints. Everything is of very high quality and pleasant. Because of this, even tipping the staff was not an issue. Water was replenished every day. The only downside I would suggest is that they should consider organizing additional wine tastings on-site.Beach view fantastic "
