Hotel Villa Schuler

One of the best staff teams we have ever experienced. They are caring, organised, polite, helpful and offered an incredible service. Paired with the PERFECT location, offering private garden access to the main town just steps away, the stunning views and various beach clubs at your disposal that offer private transfers to and from the hotel, the stay went above and beyond what we could have expected. We went in not too sure about the breakfast but decided to give it a try and ended up getting it every morning of our stay! The granita sorbet was one of my favourites. The close proximity to the town also means a very short distance to the cable cart that gave a seamless form of transport down to the beaches and boat dock. A special thank you to the reception staff that were attentive to our needs including Simona, Marco, Elena, Claudia, Mariangela and Gaida as well as the breakfast team Luca, Evegniya and Rosita.

No doubt this hotel has a high historic value ad the rooms have their special charm. But they are simple and - although super clean and always updated, they are a bit out of date. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. If you want a super central location, even with small children, then this is a good choice.

The staff at the hotel were fantastic, they were very friendly, helpful and professional. Nothing was too much trouble and always helped with a smile on their face. The hotel location is very central and easy walking distance to shops, restaurants and bars and the amphitheatre, the cable car to the beach and the bus terminal. The hotel has lots of charm and character and some lovely outside areas to sit, eat and drink. The hotel gardens are beautifully kept and a delight to walk through with a handy short cut to some of the bars, cafes and restaurants. We stayed in room 5 on the first floor which is a spacious corner room with duel aspect and spectacular views including the sea, beach and Mount Etna. Just for information........ we decided to take the bus from the airport to the hotel but after waiting for about an hour we decided to get a taxi instead. it cost nearly double of what we would have paid had we pre booked a car transfer prior to arriving in Sicily. This was due to the road works and traffic congestion and the time it took. So a tip would definitely be if you re planing to use a taxi/car for transfer to your hotel make sure you pre book as it s much cheaper!

The hotel is absolutely beautiful and the staff are so so so friendly. It was my friend's birthday and the staff went above and beyond to help arrange flowers and a cake prior to our arrival. The hotel had a lovely garden with a back exit which makes walking to heart of everything extremely quick and easy. The view from our balcony was breathtaking and felt like a postcard. We chose not to have breakfast at the hotel as we were only there for one night but it looked amazing and the location of the hotel meant that we were able to walk to most restaurants and places to eat within 5 minutes.

The hotel is a beautiful older style building - had an interesting history. The location, the view and gardens were incredible. The room was small but had everything required for a comfortable stay. It was a short walk to restaurants and sights. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend the hotel for these facets.
