Hotel Sant'Elia, hotel in Messina

Located just 200 metres from Messina Port, Hotel S. Elia offers spacious and elegant rooms with air conditioning. The S. Elia Hotel is decorated in a Liberty style and features antique furniture.

Just stayed one night after long train ride arriving in early evening. Nice reception area etc. Room was nothing special but then nothing terrible, just overdue for a new fit-out, but was it clean and a good size and even had a door to open onto street etc. Priced right for budget travellers, or when you just want a bed for the night to break up a long train trip. Breakfast was actually very good in the nice area downstairs and we left for the station soon after.

Fabulous hotel. So nice to stay in a real staffed hotel in this age of AirBNB. Very clean premises, comfortable bed. Nice breakfast area and excellent breakfast foods. Room was spectacular - large bedroom, good bathroom, kitchenette, and a large sitting room with couch and large work table. Good location - easy walk to and from train station and ferry terminal.

Jolly Charme Suite, hotel in Messina

Set within 38 km of Milazzo Harbour and 48 km of Taormina Cable Car - Mazzaro Station, Jolly Charme Suite offers rooms in Messina.

It was a simply wonderful stay. The hotel is beautiful and spotlessly clean and the room was perfect. It was spacious, pristine and decorated superbly, in fact even more beautiful than the photos. The staff were delightful - they were all so gentle, kind and friendly and went out of their way to help us. Breakfast was delicious and included lovely home made cakes and biscuits + granita. The position of the hotel is excellent, in fact our room had views over the sea, and there is easy access to the port and the main attractions such as the Duomo, the stunning astronomical clock which is a must see and the theatre opposite the hotel. We will most definitely return, this hotel is 5 stars, a boutique style hotel with the highest standards. It was such a pleasure to meet the staff who make this hotel so special. A huge thank you to you all.

    we stayed 4 nights, allowing enough time t spend in Messina as well as use it as a base to travel to other Sicily locations. it had great walkability although the sidewalks/curbs were a little challenging with a suitcase. the noon Duomo show was definitely a highlight

    The town is Ok for a day & night.

    The town is Ok for a day & night. The cathedral at 12pm is the biggest thing in town and it is worth a look for the curious. Note all the bars around the square have a surcharge just to sit down - which they don't advertise. Try the Sri Lankan restaurants around town, delicious food at a great price.

    we only stayed 3 nights, the area we stayed was very busy not far from ferry crossings. We visited Taormina and Cefalu, 2 nearby cities. Didn't get to see much of Messina itself. Did visit beach which was very nice.

    Messina doesn't have a lot of attractions - the Camponile was interesting to see at midday, as well as the Norman cathedral, for which you could really see the Mudejar influence - something I found surprising for Italy. OTOH, it also means there were fewer tourists about, which suited us to a tee. If you are into hiking, it looks like the mountains above the city would have some nice trails with views out over both the Ionian and Tyrrhenian seas.

    Messina was really just a jumping onto Sicily spot where I met up with friends coming from other locations. great for our trip to Lipari, otherwise I would not have stayed three days. There were good restaurants and some not so good so always look at the menus first. and check open times, there is no such thing as a late lunch as they all close by about 2.30pm Interesting history and buildings. Just explore, you will find hidden treasures. Big cruise ships stop here so the city can get very busy.

    Visiting Etna was great.

    Visiting Etna was great. It’s about 1.5 hrs away Nothing open on a Monday so walking around town was a bit of a waste. There really is not much to see. Taormina which is about 45 minutes away is the place to spend your time.

    Stayed here as we arrived late from a ferry in Malta and we were worried we wouldn't catch the ferry to mainland. Good place to stay if you have a car - private spacious parking was available. Room okay, pet-friendly, breakfast decent-enough (not amazing but certainly had MUCH worse in Italy - at least you got some savoury items here). Overall good value for money and decent place for a stop-over before catching the ferry (a little bit of a drive still but manageable).

    This is the nicest B&B in which we have stayed here in Sicily. It is modern (opened in 2022), comfortable, beautifully located overlooking the Straits of Messina from the spacious breakfast room and balcony, spotlessly clean and perfectly maintained. Eva (owner and designer) is welcoming, very helpful, and gracious.You cannot go wrong in selecting FuoriSquadra B&B!

    Fabio is a Super Host! Welcoming and friendly, Fabio has a beautiful R&B in the heart of Messina. Convenient to historical sites, pastry shops and restaurants and yet a quiet retreat within. Comfortable beds, daily cleaning and beautiful private bathroom makes for a restful stay. The included breakfast was top notch and delicious!

    I was able to check in at night after ferry arrival. The breakfast display was the best we've seen in Italy. So many items: pane, canolis, cereals, eggs, bacon, juices, fruits sliced, nuts, toast, granita, meats and cheeses, etc. Location near train station.

    The hotel is a short walk from the port of Messina and also the transfer to Catania airport. It is also in the centre of Messina so you can walk anywhere fairly easily. The rooms are a decent size and clean and all the the staff were friendly.
