Taormina's Odyssey in Taormina … Best hostel I've ever stayed at. Fun, laid back, no curfew or lockout, you can come and go as you please. Like staying at someone's house.
Agora Youth Hostel in Catania … The hostel is in European Standards. The building is not made of drywall and paint put up in less than two weeks... the hostel is in an authentic stone structure, wreaking of history, which may have musk and other odors. The people here are great. The nightlife if great. If you're looking for a new and clean place, pay for a five star hotel next time or better yet, stay out of Italy. Go to Germany where cleanliness is what drives the culture.
HI - Palermo - Baia del Corallo Hostel in Palermo … The staff here are great (Salvo and Francesca, especially). It is a beautiful place, right near the water, with a gorgeous view of the mountain and the city, and it's about a 30-minute bus ride from Palermo. I had a wonderful time here with no real problems, other than a bit of water on the floor in the shared bathroom in each room (probably expected, due to shower water). The main entrance is gated for security (including parking your car) and the bus line is right there. As expected, breakfast is similar to a packaged bread/croissant given in the morning, although I believe they recommended a place across the street if you want a full breakfast (8.50 Euro). All in all, the best hostel that I have been to...keep up the great work. See you in September!!
Il Castello Hostel in Noto … Quite a nice hostel with nice staff, a really good Italian breakfast, and an overwhelming building! It's worth staying there! :)
HI - Castroreale - Ostello delle Aquile Hostel in Castroreale Centro … The hostel was closed and so they provided an accomodation in a house: it was very clean even though not too cheap (and breakfast was not included). In the evening we had dinner at the restaurant of the hostel: we had fish at a very very small cost with an excellent service.
Alla Riserva Di Capo Gallo in Palermo … Really had difficulty finding this place, especially in the dark. Poor directions. Local let us follow him to show us where to go. Road is not properly tarred -- almost four by four terrain! Our room and bathroom were cramped with furniture. Smallest shower i've ever been in. Nice view and air-con were the only plus points. For the price -- which excluded breakfast, it wasn't worth it. Would recommend you find something in town that's easier to find and includes breakfast, for the same price!
Villa Amico B&B in Agrigento … Villa Amico was a really lovely place to stay. The room was very clean, comfortable and had all the modern conveniences. The owner was extremely friendly and helpful, and we would have no hesitation in recommending Villa Amico to anyone.
Giorgio's House in Palermo … We had a wonderful holiday in Giorgio's House. We hope to come back very soon. It's a very very different bed and breakfast!
Camere a Sud in Agrigento … This is the most amazing place we had been. Elvi and her boyfriend were very friendly and helpful, and they made our trip unforgettable. We felt so relaxed at the place we actually changed our schedule to spend extra time there. The triple room that we had was very clean, roomy and comfortable (believe it or not, it looks exactly as the pictures on their website). The bathroom was also very nice and clean. Breakfast was being served on the roof of the apartment, so we had our astonishing breakfast (freshly baked croissants with your choice of flavour -- the pistachio one was incredible -- fruit juice and coffee and tea, fresh fruit, yogurt and bread) under the relaxing Sicily sun. Camere a Sud is located along the main street and it was very convenient to get the stores or the phone booth. It is about half an hour bus ride away from the Valley of temple and the bus runs about every fifteen to twenty minutes until 8 pm. The people in Agrigento are extremely friendly, even though they…
I Vespri Rooms in Catania … In my opinion Vespri is very good, clean, and in the city center. The couple who run it were very friendly and helpful to me. I went on holiday in Sicily and I stayed there. Even the prices are very good.
La Rosa dei Venti Villa d'Arte in Enna … This is a delightful place to stay away from the city and in the midst of the beautiful countryside around Enna. The room was excellent with every modern facility but the people were the special part. We were made to feel like family members and we shared their enthusiasm for the land, the olive trees, and the renovation of the glorious old house. We would cheerfully recommend anyone who is in the region to enjoy a stay at this B&B. It was a little difficult to locate the first time we drove there but the journey was more than worth the effort. Thanks for a most memorable stay and a highlight of our time in Sicily.
Aretusa Vacanze in Syracuse … Lovely room with kitchenette. Friendly and helpful staff. Loved the "breakfast-in-bed"! You tick what you'd like the night before and they bring it to you on a tray to your room. Hostel situated in quaint street, quite central in Ortigia. Found a parking spot in a side street.
