Wonderful

A hotel with a lot of potential but just failed to deliver on a number of levels:
- service was disappointing, on check in advised the restaurant was not avaialble for guests as there was a private party with no apology
- areas around the pool had not been cleared of previous guests drinks and snacks
Hotel secreted on the edge of a housing estate, with sea view from balcong more like a view of hundreds of roof tops.
The property itself was not bad the area around the property was a garbage dump. The staff was very accommodating. The rooms were clean the shower was about the size of a phone booth, and the beds were like sleeping on a stone tablet. The air conditioner worked great. But they could definitely be some improvements.
From even before we arrived the hospitality was exceptional. Stunning property with fabulous food and environment.

One can expect a high quality hotel and comfortable rooms when paying 250 euros/night. However, this hotel looks like in decay - a place that has not received much attention lately. Standard rooms had scratches all over the walls and furniture. Staff was sweet, but clearly working overtime. Breakfast was extremely disappointing.
The pool is the only positive side. Astonishing view to Mt. Etna.
Gem boutique hotel nestled on the flank of Mt Etna
Our stay at Ramo d'Aria was excellent from beginning to end. It is a small boutique hotel in a beautiful converted mansion. The pool area is large and super relaxing. The restaurant beautiful and everything is super well maintained.
Christian from the front desk organized for us a private tour of the Etna and was super helpful in many occasions.
We dined there and even though my children are picky eaters, we cleaned every single plate!
We would return without a doubt.
All areas clean and well maintained. Incredible view of Mt. Etna while floating in the pool. Staff helpful without being intrusive, and patient with our extremely limited Italian.
Renovated stone buildings give very relaxed and timeless ambience. Staff had great suggestions for tip notch dining, whether at Ramo or off-site. Also offered to connect us with a small group tour up Mt. Etna, which was first-rate.
The hotel is beautifully designed and very modern. Bruno at reception gave us valuable recommendations in the area and beyond and was extremely helpful making us feel very welcome throughout our stay . Altogether a lovely experience ... the only issue we had was the breakfast which was lacking in variety and quantity . Highly recommend
My husband said "how did you find this?". Ramo d'Aria is a real gem, beautifully quiet with a stunning pool area and clean bright rooms. The staff are fantastic and the meals are superb. You could quite easily not leave the premises - but if you do, you need a car or an organised trip (which the hotel will happily organise for you). We only had two nights, but will go out of our way to come back. My only negatives - the beds are a little hard for my taste (but that is Italy). And being a Brit, I crave tea and coffee making facilities.
We stayed in Sicily for 8 nights. Our first time in the country, hoping to recharge our batteries and soak up some sun both of which we achieved.
We hired a car and are pleased we did. There's not a lot in the immediate vicinity of Ramo D'Aria and whilst the food at the hotel was very nice, it's lunch and dinner menus are limited.
We had some good recommendations of places to visit and dine at from the staff all of which were worth the effort.
If you are considering visiting and can put up with a bit of work going on in the locality around you, you like to explore wider than your immediate surroundings and you want to spend a few days lazing by the pool, you can't really go wrong with this hotel.
One word of advice, the Sicilians like their celebrations and that includes loud firework explosions and fireworks that hiss and whizz. The first time this happened on afternoon, almost everyone around the pool stopped talking and you could feel the sense of "what's going on?" My parasympathetic nervous system went into overdrive for about 90 seconds with my fight or flight instinct kicking in immediately. Not surprising given the current climate of fear we live in, so check with reception if there are any fireworks likely. The lovely Julia did come and assure us it wasn't "war" but perhaps the hotel can put this on their website too as a bit of "local knowledge".

Average hotel, location is not ideal.
This hotel looks beautiful from the outside and rooms are nice but it doesn't not live up to what it should. There are small things that add up and let it down. Staff are nice, breakfast is average, pool area is lovely.
If you are staying here you have to drive everywhere, for dinner, shops etc.
Hotel bien placé pour rayonner quelques jours dans le nord.
les points positifs :
- le petit-déjeuner délicieux, les filles au service super.
- la grande et belle piscine
- la tranquillité.
Les négatifs :
- ménage TRES mal fait.
- aménagement de la chambre minimaliste, pas d armoire.
- pas la possibilité de faire l'obscurité dans la chambre. Dès les lueurs de l'aube on y voit comme en plein jour. En plus notre chambre avait aussi sa porte vitrée (étrangement), du coup deux sources de lumière au petit matin.
- Monsieur de la réception pas hyper professionnel. Accueil fait avachi dans son fauteuil durant tout son discours explicatif.
A very stylish and relaxing hotel! We stayed for 5 days in October 2023 there and we absolutely loved it! P.S. Etna Tour organized by the hotel - is a must
Plus: sehr schöne Anlage, gepflegt, sauber, sowohl Zimmer als auch Pool. Gutes Restaurant. Extrem nettes Personal. Sehr schöner Poolbereich. Sehr gute Klimaanlage.
Minus:
- Umgebung sehr schmutzig; dafür kann das Hotel aber nicht
- Zimmer ohne Schrank und Haken, also die ganze Zeit aus dem Koffer leben
- sehr abgelegen, öffentlicher Transport quasi inexistent oder fast 3km entfernt; also ohne Mietwagen fast unmöglich
- 2 Wochen die gleiche Restaurant- und Poolmusik
- ein wöchentlicher Ruhetag des Restaurants, also in der Umgebung auswärts essen, was ohne Auto nicht einfach ist
- relativ kleine Speisekarte; bei einem längeren Aufenthalt also mehrere Wiederholungen
- Ortschaft Giarre, naja....
