4/10 Fair

This place is practically closed. The pool area is sad as there is a pool bar and bbq area that hasnt been used in at least a decade. My wife had to sweep the area up before she sunbathed on horrid dirty plastic sunbeds. There is no restaurant on site as its closed down and no bar either. The lobby is dark and gloomy and all the sofas smell of cat urine and feces. Breakfast is not worth getting up for as its just s few sweet cakes and horrible coffee. There is no tv lounge as advertised and the staff cant speak a word of English even though it states that the staff are multi lingual. This us a depressing place to stay i could leave quick enough.

Shouldn’t have been open
This hotel was as good as closed the pool area was unkempt it was in the middle of nowhere and the restaurant which was advertised was closed. There was literally nobody there and we have been told the hotel is closing down next week. It should never have been open, we seen approx 12 people in the 4 days we were there. It is possibly a result of Covid 19 and that’s sad however it should most definitely not have been open

Beautiful Garden
Great hotel. Beautiful grounds and nice touches throughout. Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good. We arrived very late, so the restaurant was closed for dinner but they suggested another restaurant, a wonderful suggestion that saved our night.

The hotel had a very picturesque entrance. We had a wedding 12 minutes away so the location was good. I should have requested a room with a shower rather than very high bath tub. Also, paid extra for a room with sea view which was really was not there.

6 night stay
Situated outside catania this was a good standard of accomodation with a pool. Decent breakfast. Most of the staff were friendly and helpful. There is a little village 300m down the hill which has 2 excellent pizza places a brilliant bakers, amazing fruit and veg shop and a supermarket. These were all excellent value. You can catch the bus to catania from there although the scheduled times were a little 'flexible' so to speak. Taxis are expensive to town(25€)and the airport(49€). Good place if you just want to relax and unwind. Already missing the crazy cockerels next door.

It was the best 4 star of the 6 we stayed at.
The afternoon desk clerk knew nothing about Hotels.com, our prepayment through Hotels.com, and said that they didn't deal in agents. I waited for the night clerk who said everything was fine and found the prepayment and applied it to the bill such that there was no balance.

2/10 Poor

Relaxing by the pool in a beautiful garden
Comfortable room and bed, very clean. Good breakfast food with excellent service, but dinner had the same uninspiring menu every night. When head waiter was not on duty the service was extremely poor. only excursion to Mount Etna on offer. this was excellent, but would have appreciated more excursions on offer, e.g. Syracuse, Taormina, and some of ancient mosaics. Bus strike so absolutely marooned with no nearby restaurants.

Garden Hotel higly recommended
We spent three nights at the Garden Hotel, primarily in order to visit our Italian cousins living nearby. The hotel room was great, the pool was amazing, and the pizzaria party on Sat. evening was loud but fun...we even danced a bit, given the music and lovely scene around the pool. The location was a bit of a problem, but Orazio at Reception was very patient in helping us figure out directions. The best way to access the hotel is from the west Tangenziale. We also loved walking around the historical center of Cantania, given the newly created pedestrian zone and found a great, inexpensive restaurant called Da Nuccio. It was like walking around a beautiful movie set, with the churches and buildings illuminated and no traffic. This is an excellent four star hotel but you really need a car to access it. Tthere is free parking on the hotel site and also free WiFi in the room, something many hotels promise but can't deliver! The breakfast was also terrific, various croissants, eggs, fresh fruit, yogurt, etc. We really enjoyed the Garden Hotel!

Garden Hotel--convenient to airport
This is a wonderful place to relax before or after a flight. Very convenient to Catania Airport and easy to find. The pool is great. The restaurant is good, not inexpensive, but you don't have to go out and look for a place to eat. There is not much around that location--just a bar or two for coffee or ice cream. The staff was very helpful and spoke English, the room was clean and even had a bathtub!! Very unusual. We had a very good stay and would return again.
