    The rooms are very minimalistic and had no info about the hotel. The reception staff was friendly but the waiting staff seemed tired of tourists Breakfast was in an area with a great view but it would have been nice to have a bit more variety available

    It was clean and the building is cool with the different styles It’s a fair way from the city centre so it’s really quiet The pool was nice Parking is at extra charge but there’s plenty of street parking available around the hotel

    I forgot my jacket in my room when I checked out and when I came back to the hotel the cleaning lady 'didn't see it! I liked the hotel but I wont come back just because of this! And one lamp was broken but they didn't change it.

    The hotel looks like a castle

    However this hotel is a derelict shabby hotel, I’m appalled that Booking.com would allow them on their site, I will not trust anything booking.com lists from now, after checking I noticed google reviews were much different from the booking.com reviews. I asked the hotel for a refund but they refused so I will be taking this further - room smelled of sewage. - curtains that looked like something from the 70s - hot tub was not filled or working. - tons of holes, paint chippings. - bed was like sleeping on a concrete slab. - shower did not drain properly and would not drain after just one shower. Asked for a refund after explaining how bad our experience was and that we would be checking out to stay in an Airbnb, and she refused..

    Nothing.

    Claudia, first class hotel receptionist.She made me feel that my experience at the hotel was personally important to her. This Hotel is in a prime location, for us and the rooms are well designed and very comfortable. The breakfast was good and the public areas are relaxing and well maintained.

    I absutely loved this place!!! Everything from the kindness of the staff to the great and friendly neighbourhood to the suite... amazing!!! I spent almost all of my time on the terrace, the view of mount Etna, the sea and Catania is simply breathtaking!! This is such a unique and awesome place to start vacation in Sicily. Standing ovations go out to Alessia for a ton of nice recommendations, to Francesco and his team for the patience with filling the Jacuzzi, and to the kind gentleman who patiently waited to bring me into town. I have booked again for a special close-out of my stay in Sicily...

    They offer you free shuttle to the city centre or the beach but in situ they said that the beach was closed (we checked online and it was open) and they said that they don't have any places left for the city centre and we saw that the van was half empty. Every day of the 4 days we stayed there they had some kind of excuse. If you're not very skinny you wouldn't be able to get in the shower, shower door was broken and the shower head was falling apart. Also it smelled really bad from the water drain in the bathroom. Breakfast in the hotel was really bad, we didn't have much choice and it definately wasn't worth of a 4 star hotel. Also tap water isn't drinkable, you should buy bottled water. We learned that the hard way.

    The cleaning lady was really nice

    In short - it’s not four stars at all, not even three stars, but just a bed and an iron table, perhaps it’s stylish, but why draw stars?

    Nice staff who try hard.

    - Strong smell of mould - Boiling water in faucets. Even though we reported this, it was not fixed. We could hardly take a shower - Very poor breakfast - Chipped crockery. Tea leaked from the cracked teapot - Booked a triple room but only 2 espresso cups and one coffee pod were provided in the room - Parking space very limited even though we paid extra - Overrated/overpriced - Needs refurbishment since the hotel is run down - Obviously not a deluxe room as advertised

    - location very central

    Staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, nothing was too much trouble! Their on site restaurant serves the most amazing pork! But the options are a little limited. The front desk will also call very affordable taxis to the city centre and airport as well if you ask nicely. Highly recommend to anyone staying in Catania

    We arrived at the hotel a group of 6 people, the hospitality was excellent, the staff were courteous, always treated in a respectful and courteous manner. The hotel is very beautiful, offering comprehensive services such as breakfast / dinner (dinner as a paid restaurant), transportation to a very special and clean beach that is well worth a visit! , Pool, beautiful balconies for sitting. The receptionists were amazing and helped us with every request and even beyond. Thank you to Villa del Bosco for an unforgettable experience. We'll be back, from Israel with love

    Terrible breakfast quality, noise in the room from other guests (very narrow walls), dirty bathroom. Quality of parking was very bad - cars needed to be moved to when you would like to go away and we told to receptikn that we need to go away in the morning to the airport, but car was not ready in the morning so we were waiting for that and almost not catch the flight. Definitel NOT recommanded.
