Hotel Villa Dorata, hotel in Nicolosi

Located in a former royal residence, the Hotel Villa Dorata has elegant and spacious rooms with free Wi-Fi and satellite TV. Mount Etna's slopes are just outside.

The location of the hotel is ideal, just a short drive from the Rifugio Giovanni Sapienza, where you can find the cable car and the starting point of many of the Etna tours. We were also given advice about some very nice hiking routes that we could take on our own. The surroundings are quiet, and there is a restaurant on site that serves a good breakfast.

Corsaro Etna Hotel&SPA, hotel in Nicolosi

The only hotel at an altitude of 2000 metres in the UNESCO World Heritage Site Etna Regional Park, Hotel Corsaro is 300 metres from the cable way and meeting point for excursions to the crater.

Ideal base if looking to go up Etna. Staying so close means that you can get an early start and miss the hoards of people travelling from further afield.Comfortable room with lovely bathroom. Weather conditions cold and miserable when we arrived so it was lovely to have a warm room waiting for us!

Criu Boutique Hotel, hotel in Nicolosi

Set in Nicolosi, 17 km from Catania Piazza Duomo, Criu Boutique Hotel offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a restaurant.

Architecturally and design-wise absolutely perfect, down to the smallest detail. Parking on site, super helpful staff, high chair for babies, great pizzeria in the same building as the hotel, super comfy beds and baby crib, great pressure in showers, excellent breakfast (eggs to order, fresh juices, freshly cut ham and cheese etc - if you don't speak Italian just ask for all of these - ex. fresh yogurt is in fridge, not on the buffet; you need to ask for cooked eggs/omelette yourself). The town is cute, a couple of great patisseries (Russo was one of our favorites in all our travels to Italy), location close to Etna while not too far away from the beach,

Rifugio Sapienza, hotel in Nicolosi

Featuring a traditional restaurant, Rifugio Sapienza is just 10 metres from the cable car linking to the top of Mount Etna. This property offers a bar, free ski storage, and a shared lounge room.

We enjoyed the breakfest, there were many options including not only delicious sweet Italian pastries, but also scrumbled and boiled eggs, toasts, fresh orange juice and suprisingly many more. The location cannot be better, it is a minute from the cable car station so we saw Etna in the morning without crowd of people (they all were there waiting for thier turn while we were going down). The carpark is there, which is helpful.

B&B Blanc Maison Etna Relais & Charme, hotel in Nicolosi

Set in Nicolosi, at the foot of Mount Etna, B&B Blanc Maison Etna Relais & Charme offers accommodation with free WiFi and an outdoor swimming pool.

We enjoyed our stay. It was clean, bright and airy with beautiful decor. Our room was very comfortable with access to the garden. Breakfast was great and the staff were cheerful and helpful, especially with helping with places to visit, Etna and Taormina, and recommendations for restaurants which were delicious.

    This town has so much charm and everyone here is so lovely. We enjoyed going on a long walk around the neighborhood, and at night the whole town comes alive in the Piazza. These folks know how to have fun!

    Anyone staying in Nicolosi for a holiday needs their own...

    Anyone staying in Nicolosi for a holiday needs their own transport. Sicily is not like Malta and doesn't have a good public bus service, sadly. Also you need to be a very confident driver if you are considering hiring a car there. It's every man/woman for himself. The only other way to get around is by booking tours, which do seem to be plentiful. Plenty of good places in Nicolosi to eat and well stocked supermarkets. My only criticism really is the amount or rubbish left on the road sides, which seems such a shame for such a beautiful civilised place and is something that local councils really need to address.

    Very scenic and a quaint village.

    Very scenic and a quaint village. You will need own transportation to be more free to go where you want. They have rosticcierie for lunch and food is lovely. For pizza, particularly if you have intolerances, order from Punto ICS - excellent and does delivery. We also ate at La Baita di Rosemary, prices are affordable and they have a varied menu but isn't ideal for food intolerances, though they do oblige for food for children.

    Nicolosi is a vibrant town with lots of delicious restaurants. It is very easy to get to Etna from here, and good travel link to other tourist attractions such as Taormina, Catania, Aci Reale. Comparing to Catania, Nicolosi is much quieter, cleaner and we feel very safe in this town.

    Great location for visiting Etna and the region.

    Great location for visiting Etna and the region. Unfortunately, constant dogs barking meant that we couldn't use place to relax in-between excursions. Host has 7 dogs and most neighbours do too, we took are dog, but he is trained. Host was nice, English not so good but neither is my Italian so not really an issue. Patio of place was full of ash on our arrival, which could have been swept up in 2 mins and avoided being walked inside. I don't know if it is mentioned in the description the amount of dogs the owner has, but if somebody has a fear of dogs or small children who are a bit dog wary, this is not the place for you. You do not come into contact with them but you are well aware of their presence.

    Tourist town. I regret we had stayed there. Was hard to find an honest and authentic place to eat. Lost of repelling restaurants. Luckily we were recomended by our host to eat at Scorzonera and it was worth it.

    The design of the overall hotel is absolutely great - every detail is thought through, modern and stylish. Apart from great beds the breakfast provided us with a great start into the day. It is an almost family like setting with the hotel staff trying to fulfill every wish. The quality of the food is great and even included home baked fresh cake :) The location is really good: There is highly regarded pizza & steak place nearby and its a short trip by car to both the Etna and Catania.

    They were really really nice. Very friendly and accommodating. For example, they make coffee for you when they can and Saturday morning, I just asked if they had oat milk or the like (totally okay if there was none but I just thought to ask as well). They ran out and were very sorry. They promised that they would have some the next day and there was. They didn't need to but they did. Super appreciate it and very grateful. If I were to stay in Nicolosi again, I would book here. 😊

    Angela the owner could not be any nicer and loves what she does. And boy does it show. This kind of personal attention is what makes travel a joy to us. The location is perfect for those wishing to visit Etna, and the B&B was a fantastic value. Pool is lovely and kept very clean. Breakfast was highlighted by a homemade pistachio croissant we found close to divine! Even the coffee was first rate. Walking distance to town and great food. Private parking too. Highly recommended!

    Peaceful property with quality linens and towels in a spotless room. Comfortable bed and pillows. Breakfast included sweets, savoury, juice, coffee, and fruit. Kind and caring couple operating the hotel. Restaurant and bar open during high season. Pool will be refreshing in warmer weather. Great spot to base your Mt Etnea exploration. Treat yourself to a room with a balcony and Mountain View.

    Proximity of Mount Etna, Silence, Room Cleanness, Very friendly staff, Awesome Restaurant (very responsible and attentive staff, very good food taste and complete application of food safety procedures). The breakfast is complete and composed by very good candies and fruits). The price is compatible with the location/quality of the service. Certainly I would get back there again.

    Just WOW! You must stay in this hotel to appreciate the Mt Etna atmosphere. The staff was wonderful. The breakfast spread was out of thos world. There are souvenirs at a very good price, so you don't have to fall into a tourist trap elsewhere. Walk to the cable cars. The full experience ticket is a must, no need to book extra guides or excursions! Loved every moment!

    It's a nice hotel with a swimming pool outside. It is nearby Catania, rooms were big enough, it's a nice place to stay if you travel by car as it is located in Nicolosi. Breakfast was also really good 👍😊 All of the staff were kind and helpful. We will definitely come back again if we'll be traveling to Sicily again in summertime!

    The host was very warm and helpful. The kitchen was entirely at our disposal including what was in the fridge which is a nice plus when you arrive late and tired from your etna trip. Great location at only 25 min drive to Etna Sud. The breakbeat was nice. The beds are comfortable. The room was spacey with a nice bathroom.

    Excellent for My Etna visit lovely setting and out of the main area. We loved it clean and in an old Dukes house which has been altered into a hotel. We had dinner there which was great and easy parking. Best place to stay for mountain visit. It’s renovated but keeps it’s old world charm

    The hotel is very close to the gondola to Etna mountain. Nice view of Catania from the height of 1800 m. The hotel is an attempt to recreate the atmosphere of mountain lodges from a century ago. The restaurant serves dinner and breakfast.
