Nice place, fantastic location. Incredible view. Really firm mattress overall really good!

Great hotel and view from the mountain, but not practical to enter or leave the hotel.

Not a great place... its like staying on a cheap cruise ship on land

This hotel was a zoo. Unbeknownst to us, this hotel offers an all inclusive option and caters to young families. This is not a place to go if you are looking for a relaxing or romantic experience. The hotel is old, probably built in the 60’s and hasn’t changed since. Very outdated. The beds are extremely uncomfortable - you can feel every spring. And each time you turn over, you can hear the crinkle of the plastic mattress cover. The breakfast buffet was poor…better food at a school cafeteria. The pool was filled with smokers, domestic arguments, and screaming children. Choose a different hotel, unless you like chaos and unrest.

Very clean, quiet and lots of entertainment.

Had an amazing vacation. The room was amazing with our Sea view. The staff was very helpful. The only thing I think could be improved upon is the breakfast was always just plain could be spiced up a little bit.

Tired, catering for the masses

We were a little confused about the parking and location of the resort. You can park at the resort for five euro or if you find a spot within the white line, it’s free. You can also park near the lift at the bottom of the mountain but that parking is not owned by the hotel. There isn’t anywhere to get drinks at the resort besides the bar. Also if you miss lunch and 2pm passes, there isn’t anywhere to eat. We enjoyed the terrace and the views. The beach and pool were also nice. The funicular was broke when we got there and we actually got stuck inside with the maintenance man. It was a little traumatic.

Hotel is better than how it looks from it’s exterior. Our room had the best views. Pool areas are amazing. Breakfast had plenty of selection. Overall, a very pleasant stay!

Great place!

Staff rude in kitchen and restaurant Food at breakfast buffet was not fresh. Fruits were rotten and they put them back next day Desserts were good for the Easter supper buffet No amenities in rooms Mattresses are springy and need new ones No pillow menus I consider this hotel 2 stars.

There is no way to reach the hotel without a car but once there, the funicular and elevators make it very easy to get into town and on the beach. The property is dated although the pool is outstanding. And the scenery is truly spectacular.

This property has an all inclusive program including unlimited drinks and food options including pour your own drinks. The food is buffet style and is ok but could be better but as two hotels share the facilities it can get a little busy and noisy at mealtimes. The pool at the Olimpo can be a bit busy but there is a DJ with music pumping and all day snacks to keep you going. There is a quieter pool at the Hotel Antares and also the benefit of free sun beds with the beach access available. I see it as sort of like a cruise ship on land!

The rooms are finished to a high standard. We had rooms with balcony and sea view and as the hotel is built on a steep hillside the views are spectacular. We particularly loved the Olimpo outdoor pool although there are two others to choos from. Also has its own private beach. Would recommend to any of my family and friends.

The front desk as very helpful and friendly

All good, Lovely hotel, great dining options, staff very pleasant, all in all a good stay.

This hotel is up on a mountainside! Expedia told me it was 0.12 miles from Letojanni train station, which is why I chose it. IT IS NOT. However, they have a private tram that takes you up to the hotel from down by the train station/highway. It would have been helpful to know about this beforehand as it's very critical info. That said, the hotel has beautiful terraces everywhere and gorgeous views of the Sicilian coastline and the surrounding mountains. The pool and the terrace bar were both quite stunning. On the other hand, this hotel is set up to try to keep you spending money at the hotel. Why would anyone come to Sicily and eat dinner at the $18 hotel buffet when there are myriad local restaurants just down the mountain? Why did I have to pay a $10 "club fee" to use the pool, and then pay another $10 to rent a pool towel? Why does the hotel guide say there's a happy hour in the terrace bar from 5-8 p.m. but then when I got there none of the bartenders had ever heard of that? Unlike most of the other hotels I stayed at in Italy, which were small and family-run, this one was huge and corporate, and accordingly it often felt impersonal and kind of greedy.

Resort is easily accessible and has many facilities however everything except 1 resturant and the wellness center was shut during our stay which the listing does not warn about

The photos really sold this place to us. However, our stay wasn't quite like that. We booked this place hoping to relax at the pool and spa but of course, this is the only hotel we stayed at that still has its amenities closed because of "covid". Anyway, without getting too political. We were disappointed that nothing was opened. Parking here is also really rough. The hotel is built on a huge hill and with sand literally everywhere, we did slide a bit. There isn't really a designated parking spot so everyone just kind of parks to the side of the building...again on the very steep hill. The breakfast was great. That's about the best thing we experienced. Oh and there is a lift. Breakfast was warm and there were lots of options which was nice. We packed some snacks for the road as well. To get to breakfast we had to take a mountain tram (forgive me I forgot the real name) but we noticed it sometimes didn't work or would get STUCK when PEOPLE WERE IN IT. Which is a bit sketch but oh well so we took the 10 million stair up to breakfast. Guess it was a good workout just glad it wasn't raining. Lastly, the room was alright. Felt a bit like a motel room. I'm sure it looks nicer when it isn't fall and gloomy through all the windows but the beds were eh and the sheets were bleh. We stayed in about 10 bnb/hotels during our trip and this didn't make the top of the list, unfortunately. We were glad we were only here for a night. You also really need a car here.

Our stay was wonderful great service great location great food. We were very happy with our stay and the service we were given. The beach is not far from hotel and easy to find which is another plus. Bar and swimming pool could not have been better.
