"Nice and quiet spot surrounded by beautiful gardens. Rooms were very clean with nice interior. Dined at the restaurant for dinner which was delicious and breakfast was generous. Pool was nice with a beautiful view of Mt Etna. Highly recommend if you want something a bit more intimate and away from the larger towns. "
"We liked the Hotel overall. Some details were not perfect, for example the bathroom could be in a better condition. The a la carte breakfast was very good but very small portions. All in all a good hotel for 1-2 nights to explore the Etna area."
"It would be difficult to overstate just how wonderful this place is. The rooms are clean and relatively spacious, the breakfast is wonderful, the owner is absolutely phenomenal (he even assisted me with gassing up my car before we left!), and the pool is absolutely magnificent…I’ve never seen a nicer pool outside of a resort!"
"Absolutely adore this spot! Staff were great - except for one waitress in the restaurant who decided our child shouldn’t eat tiramisu and so she told us it was sold out. Was pretty judgemental. Everyone else was fantastic and would highly recommend this place to anyone!"
"My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. It felt like we were staying as a guest at someones home. The best part of this stay was the staff. Franchesca was a true pleasure. She made sure our stay was perfect and was always working day and night to make sure everyone was happy. Her mother Giusy was wonderful as well. She ran the breakfast in the mornings and helped out with guests as well. Was a great experience from staying at a regular hotel. I would definitely stay here again."
"We had a great stay at Rosa’s. She was very welcoming and as others have said, provides an amazing breakfast. Ideal location for exploring Etna Nord. "
"Very nice, new, modern and clean apartment. Very quiet. Comfortable mattress, small common kitchen with a nice terrace. Dedicated parking, guarded by a gate. Nice and very responsive contact with the host. Good base for hiking in the Etna region, with Etna south and north each 20 to 30 minutes away by car. "
"It’s a beautiful small property with a very cool design. Fairly rustic though and with a bit of a farmhouse feel and therefore maybe not for everyone. Managers and owners Giacomo and Paola are both fantastic. Giacomo in particular was a superstar, passionately speaking about the wines of the winery and the region, giving us great restaurant recommendations and really going above and beyond with a smile. "
"The owner is giving a personnalized service, he is there for the customer, we feel it is natural and not forced or overacted.
The hotel is really close from the volcano but unfortunately really far from the cities"
"Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo. Camera pulita e confortevole. Abbiamo apprezzato la silenziosità e il parcheggio. Personale disponibile e gentile, ci siamo sentiti a casa. "

"**A Hidden Sicilian Paradise - Absolutely Magical**
Our stay at Palazzo Previtera was nothing short of extraordinary. This isn't just accommodation - it's a transformative experience that exceeded every expectation.
Alfio and Constanza are exceptional hosts whose warmth, professionalism, and genuine care made our trip truly magical. Their unmatched hospitality creates an atmosphere where you feel like cherished guests rather than mere visitors.
The culinary experience with chefs Alberto and Kaito was a highlight we'll treasure forever. They masterfully blended expertise with fun, creating not just a meal but a joyful learning experience that engaged all our senses.
The property itself is breathtaking - a perfect harmony of meticulous curation and effortless elegance. Walking through the sprawling gardens feels like entering a dream, with vibrant pomegranates, aromatic sage, and an abundance of flowers and trees creating a natural paradise. Both the charming cottage and main building maintain this whimsical magic while providing pristine comfort.
The museum component adds incredible depth, offering rich insights into local history and culture that enhance the entire experience.
Palazzo Previtera is truly a hidden gem that delivers an unforgettable escape into beauty, hospitality, and authentic Sicilian charm. We cannot recommend it highly enough!"
