Bosco Ciancio In Biancavilla

It is a magical place. Very quiet and well maintained. The hotel is very well located for a trip to the south side of Mount Etna. The beds are good. And the dinner in the hotel is really fantastic. (A little more expensive but appropriate for the service and quality) There is a pool table and lots of great places to sit and relax. The pool was still open but of course no longer warm (stay in October). You can take a short walk in the adjacent chestnut forest. The hotel owner is very friendly and gives great tips. For us, the best stay in Sicily. Highly recommended.

Everything was nice and...good.

Charming hotel if you want to disconnect from the city. An idyllic place to rest. Located at the foot of Etna. Very pleasant common areas, reading room, solarium and swimming pool. Full and varied breakfast and very good option for lunch and dinner in the same accommodation. They informed us very well for trekking around Etna.

Top. Small hotel. Great hosts. Good food.

For those who want to unplug Bosco Ciancio is an ideal place, it is located about 1000 meters on the slopes of Etna, a few minutes from the Rifugio Sapienza and the adjacent cable car, it is an excellent point for excursions to the craters on the southern side. The structure is immersed in a forest, it is easily reached with roads that are all in all in excellent condition. It has a swimming pool (which unfortunately we did not use due to the capricious weather) an exclusive restaurant for guests, I must compliment because the three dinners we enjoyed were excellent and the price was consistent. Breakfast can be consumed both inside and in the garden and was quite rich from eggs to fruit, there was no shortage of homemade desserts and excellent croissants, coffee and cappuccino prepared on the spot. The rooms are large and comfortable, equipped with a fridge (why not put a courtesy bottle of water?) I appreciate the choice not to put a TV, (they have one in the common room where they also have an excellent billiard table!) Bathroom with shower, shame no window, lots of towels (good job!) and shower set also a hairdryer. The staff has always been welcoming and kind, special mention for Alessandra (I hope I remember the name well..) who immediately made us feel at ease. Traveling with children I suggest an area with a couple of swings maybe there is space.
