Excellent location and friendly English speaking staff. Great a/c! A bit dated which we could already see from pics on website but very clean. Expected more from breakfast and it was a bit lacking.

Beach holiday in Cefalu
The Hotel is very well placed in a quiet side street 5 mins walk from the town beach and close to the Duomo. The Hotel is traditional. The room was clean with good air con. The bed was comfortable. The staff were very helpful. The breakfast was OK but could have had a bit more choice and better stocked.

This is a decent hotel for the price, while a little dated, it was clean and the location is excellent. The family that run the hotel are friendly and helpful. The hotel is a 5/10 minute walk from the beach (depending on which part of the beach you plan to visit) and it is centrally located for all the restaurants / bars. The building has a terrace on the roof with some nice views so it is nice to sit there with some drinks in the evening. I would re-visit.

Central but could improve
The bed was very uncomfortable. Also the room window was facing some scalfolding in a pit, not a courtyard as it says. Mini Fridge barely working, it took overnight to cool the water. Breakfast was fine basic stuff like eggs, croissants, coffee, fruits, though when ran out of juice it took around 10min to refill. Very central location, friendly staff. Safe to leave things. Modern lock mechanisms and you can open the door from your bed also lights, except central light doesn't work. Clearly they saved on the art work :)

Hotel within walking distance for all Cefalu amenities. In the hub of things but generally quiet within the hotel. Nice rooftop terrace to enjoy evening sun. Staff were all very pleasant and keen to make sure guests were happy. Breakfast was sufficient enough to start the day. We had triple room which was a bit small but no problem to us. All in all would highly recommend this hotel for your stay in Cefalu.

Brilliant location in the old town.
Enjoyed the hotel as it was in the old town, close to the cathedral and the beach. Lovely restaurants and bars close by. Took a bus to Castlebuono for a day out and the train station was within walking distance. Only disappointment was that I stupidly left some clothes behind in the hotel which I asked them to return, but they were not prepared to pay the postage on this, and although I offered to pay it was all too complicated.
