This was probably the best hotel that we stayed at Dora our travels to London, Rome, and Sicily. The room was great and the staff were fantastic. They had a room with a better view that they gave us for free. Breakfast every morning was very good. And it was a short walk to town. It was great having a parking lot next-door as we drove there. If I was ever to come To Cefalu again I would pick the same hotel!

Location was quite a walk from the main beaches. The hotel has a beach, but charges to use it and it is quite small. I recommend that you walk down to the large beaches. You need to pay a fee for the umbrella and lounger, but the beach is beyter and has more amenities. Our bathroom smelled like sewage that they tried to cover with deoderizer. Maybe the seals under the toilet or bidet need to be replaced. There was no hot water for two of the three days we stayed. The room had a bunkbead for children, but some parts were held together with zip ties, instead of bolts. There was no view from the room we srayed in.

Friendly staff and walkable to the attractions. We could park the car before check-in. Although additional charges are required almost everything, such as parking, access to the private beach, beach towel and bottle of water, the staff explained clearly and we enjoyed the time at the beach.

Positives: large, clean pool, plenty of loungers and umbrellas. Hotel bright and clean but a little dated. Breakfast was very good, especially the croissants. Pleasant 20 minute walk to beautiful Cefalù along the promenade. Negatives: parking charges not made clear prior to booking - 15 euro per day Charges to use beach at 10 euro per day per person. No shops or restaurants near by.

Before we left for our trip into Cefalu, we were reassured by the hotel that there would be many cabs at the station. There were none. When we called Hotel Tourist for assistance, they said no, and then hung up on us. I walk with a cane and it was tough. They were sarcastic with us when we didn’t understand that the key turned on electrical for the room. After the first day it was better, (attitude) but I wouldn’t come here again. The room was so small, and the area wasn’t good for choices regarding restaurants. Cefalu is amazing but I’m assuming the other places were a lot more expensive. I live in a tourist area myself, and I get it: when the season is over everyone wants to relax. But we felt as though we were bothering them.

If you want wifi in your hotel room do not book this hotel as many of the rooms do not have wifi which was very disappointing when it advertises free wifi in all rooms
