"Excellent and very large apartment accomodation accessing Mt Etna, Catania and Taormina. Big apartment terrace views of Catania and the sea and back door views directly on Etna. Exceptional made to order breakfast from local cafe delivered to the room. Apartment washer/laundry facilities perfectly met our needs.
Great accommodation at great value."

"The View to Mount Etna was the best, the garden house was well looked after so you enjoy the green areas and the calmness there. wished to spend more time there but had plans to go out for most of the day so was good overall. would definitely recommend it for couples who want to escape the city and enjoy the view."

These Apartments are immaculate and in an excellent and convenient location. We upgraded to an apartment with a view of the town and sea which was a great sun trap to enjoy breakfast!
No need to take anything with you as all basics are provided eg towels, hairdryer, toiletries, tea towels etc.
Valet parking available at extra charge - a must if you have a car as parking spaces few and far between. Parking is off site so 10 mins notice required to retrieve vehicle.
Can't wait to return-...

We stayed for one night, but would have liked to have stayed longer. Giuseppe is an excellent host and we had the best breakfast of our visit to Sicily. The room was generously proportioned with an excellent bathroom, and opened out onto the courtyard. The location is excellent and there are good restaurants close by.

This is one of the most stylish and unusual hotels in which I have ever had the pleasure of staying. I believe the building was constructed around 1900 but only became a hotel around 15 years ago. It is furnished in the spirit of art nouveau with spacious and comfortable public areas and beautifully appointed bedrooms. We were lucky enough to have a suite in which both the sitting and bedrooms had very high ceilings, the edges of each being delicately stencilled. Each room had a very large...

We have stayed in 5* hotels worldwide. However I need to admit, this little hotel exceeded our expectations. The service from the start to the end was pure class. Before arriving at the hotel, I emailed regarding airport transfer and it was arranged within minutes. I also asked for an iron, and the iron was placed in our room before our arrival.
My husband had a wonderful massage with Jacqueline. Absolutely first class. And I needed to do my hair for a wedding we were attending, however the...

Lovely little hotel! Great staff—special mention goes to Giuseppe in the bar. The hotel is in the perfect location for a Taormina stay: not right in the centre but close enough to get there with a five minute walk. The rooms are lovely (well, ours was)! Also the breakfasts are to die for; such a wide selection to cater for every taste. I don’t really have any negatives that I can think of.

Excellent throughout. Close enough to enjoy the city center (15mins by car) and beach (20mins by car), without getting caught up in the hustle and bustle of crowds.
Exceptional staff, both caring and informative.

Our stay at Shalai was outstanding from start to finish. We received a warm welcome from a genuinely friendly and professional team. The hotel is set in a beautifully restored historic mansion on a quiet street, creating a peaceful and elegant atmosphere.
Check-in was effortless. Our online check-in was fully recognized, so there was no need to repeat the process. No credit card was requested and payment was deferred until checkout, which was a pleasant surprise.
