Hotel Ristorante Paradise

What guests think

At Hotel Ristorante Paradise, travelers consistently praise warm, family-run hospitality, very clean and comfortable rooms, scenic views of Mount Etna, and enjoyable dining—especially dinners and made-to-order breakfasts served in attractive poolside or restaurant settings.

Many reviews highlight the quiet, out of the way location as ideal for visiting Etna by car, but note limited nearby infrastructure and that some areas outside the hotel look untidy. Service is widely described as attentive and welcoming, though several guests mention limited English among staff. Facilities include a small, pleasant pool, but it often closes early in the evening. Overall, expect a clean, welcoming base in a peaceful, car dependent setting.

Pragtfuld sted - vi tog hertil udefra anmeldelserne og det var et lille paradis. Vi skulle have et hotel i forbindelse med et besøg på Etna, der var ca 45 min i bil op til Etna Sud i 1900 m - perfekt. Morgenmaden var ganske enkelt fremragende, ikke den største pool, men fin til en dukkert. Var ret lækkert at kunne ligge i poolen og kigge op på Etna - du går ikke fejl af dette hotel.

Nice hotel in the "middle of nowhere". Very good restaurant and service. Only minus that they have to close swimming pool too early, already at 18.00, because of preparing tables for outdoor restaurant at swimming pool area.

Hotel fantástico. Muy limpio y acogedor. Habitaciones muy amplias y balcón. Vistas espectaculares al Etna. En los alrededores no hay “ambiente”, pero el hotel tiene un restaurante, con comida variada, de excelente calidad y a un buen precio. Muy buen desayuno. Repetiría sin duda, ya que tiene una buena ubicación para conocer Catania (está a unos 25 km pero Catania me parece un caos de ciudad, sucia e invita poco a alojarse en ella) y la zona del Etna. También nos permitió movernos a Siracusa y Noto (aunq la distancia es considerable).

We stayed here for one week and the people running this hotel are without a doubt the nicest, friendliest and most helpful hotel staff you will ever find. Whatever we needed they were there for us and offered their help. The design of the hotel is very elegant and the rooms were very clean and the showers were warm and cozy. Our room had a beautiful view of the sicilian landscape and mount Etna. The hotel restaurant has great food and the breakfast has many many options and you can yourself pick what you wish and at what time. If you want to go to tours the hotel will help you with bringing tour guides and even they can help you with transfer or finding car rentals. The hotel but the people working there in particular made this trip a journey we will never forget. Thank you!

This Hotel we chose because it was the center of everything we wantet. (its not far to Etna Vulcano, to the outletstore, to Taminia and also to Catania and the Airport. We will come again.

The ambience of this hotel is excellent. The hotel is well-located with views of Etna. The staffs are exceptionally well-trained, the food reasonably priced and excellent quality. Eating dinner near the pool has to be one of best locations, beautifully set-up with tablecloths, shining glassware, suitable lighting and music. Rooms are sufficiently spacious and spotlessly clean. Decor is older style but suits the nature of the hotel.

A wonderful traditional family-run hotel and restaurant, welcoming to tourists and also well-frequented by local families. Excellent food, wonderful service, a pool area with views of Etna, there was so much to love! A little away from the usual tourist areas, St Maria di Licodia is an ideal location for exploring Etna and travelling into Catania or Taormina though you will need a car. The team at Hotel Ristorante Paradise are very welcoming and genuinely make the effort to ensure you have a wonderful stay.
