First and foremost, a 4-star hotel should have an insulation system. We basically could even hear the room next door opening their luggage.. awful.
Apart from that (which is a big minus), the pool is cool, parking is free, staff friendly, breakfast decent.
Food options are pricey and limited.

Very nice hotel, located quite near the sea.
The small but very nice pool is suitable for the size of the hotel.
A very large and fresh room, quite light.
Functional bathroom, perhaps a little washing room but very broad shower
And very comfortable.
Gentle staff able to accept and manage requests
in a manner of good and preciseness.
The only thing that penalizes the hotel is the distance from Catania airport,
With public means is a journey for more than 60 minutes, instead with the car
it is much more affordable, say 35/40 minutes, and there is a large internal parking
Very Good

We were really good, the room was excellent, the careful and accurate cleaning (towels and shower fabrics clean every day). What is it, we will certainly return because thanks to them our little holiday was wonderful. Thank you (ah, I forgot, the owner is very sympathetic and generous and offers much more than it should for a B&B). We will see you soon 😊
Location molto carina. Possibilità di parcheggio esterno alla struttura ma le auto sono all'interno di una sbarra e quindi al sicuro. Le camere pulite , anche se risalta all'occhio il nero (come se fosse silicone sporco e invecchiato) negli angoli delle stanze e soprattutto nel bagno. Colazione a buffet buona e varia, sia dolce che Salata. Personale delle pulizie molto gentile, personale reception gentile ma molto freddo e distaccato anche nello spiegare le dinamiche dell'hotel. In camera il condizionatore mandava continuamente aria , non calda, ma molto fastidiosa. Purtroppo ce ne siamo resi conto soltanto dopo essere rientrati la sera e quindi essendo la reception chiusa, non abbiamo voluto disturbare al numero delle urgenze che ci era stato fornito, ma ce ne siamo pentiti in quanto l'aria durante la notte era pensate e questo non ci ha permesso di riposare bene. Tornerei solo ed esclusivamente dopo aver avuto conferma e garanzia che il condizionatore funzioni nella camera assegnatami.
The hotel is on a hillside, and most rooms with pool views have sea views, but they cannot reach the seaside. The room is relatively spacious, the bed is moderately soft and hard, the bedding quality is good, the bathroom is separated from wet and dry areas, and the electric sunshade on the balcony is very good. The breakfast is quite satisfactory, with a reasonable mix of salty and sweet. There are two pizza shops just outside the hotel door. One of them is very noisy because locals sing karaoke every night. The other pizza shop looks like a dessert shop and is of good quality. There is also a small supermarket. It closes early. The highlight of the hotel is the swimming pool, a small circular swimming pool with a depth of 4 meters. It is quite interesting to practice diving. The disadvantage of the hotel is that on the terrace opposite the main building, the music is a bit loud every night. You can hear it even if you close the balcony door, and it is not turned off until around 11:30, which affects your sleep.
Sono tornato all’Hotel Malavoglia per un “last minute” con la mia famiglia mercoledì 30 agosto 2023. Ci è stata assegnata una quadrupla ampia , luminosa e confortevole. Materassi di adeguato spessore e capaci di offrire una più che buona qualità del sonno. Biancheria pulita, climatizzazione ed insonorizzazione di ottimo livello. Il bagno dotato di ampia finestra (e non del solito impiantino di aerazione), box doccia super spazioso, vasca da bagno e due lavabi, tutto di ultima generazione. Presente un buon kit per l’igiene personale. La piscina, decisamente bella, è un altro punto forte della struttura. Molto comodi e di qualità “premium” i lettini a bordo piscina, idem i maxi ombrelloni. Presente un bel bar a bordo piscina, che ci ha servito un’ottimo Spritz con salatini. Al costo di 10 euro al giorno è inoltre disponibile un comodo servizio di parcheggio coperto nei sotterranei, con accesso diretto dai locali dell’hotel 👍. Prima colazione molto varia ed abbondante, con presenza di dolce, salato e frutta. Ho particolarmente apprezzato le torte e i biscotti, un po’ meno croissant, donuts e altri prodotti da forno. Mi è piaciuta pure l’anguria, non altrettanto il melone bianco. Sul salato non mi esprimo, non avendo assaggiato nulla. Riguardo al cappuccino, è possibile scegliere tra la macchinetta self service ed il bar attiguo alla sala colazione, con il personale che effettua servizio al tavolo. Consiglio quest’ultima soluzione, anche perché non vi è alcun sovrapprezzo..In un’occasione abbiamo pranzato a bordo piscina con quattro portate di pesce. Prezzo medio intorno ai 15 euro a portata e purtroppo, per quanto speso, risultato non adeguato alle aspettative 😕. Procedendo ad un rapido conteggio, posso dire che in questo periodo, all’Hotel Malavoglia di Acitrezza, la tariffa per persona al giorno, prima colazione e tasse incluse, si aggira intorno ai 50 euro a persona, cui va aggiunta la tassa di soggiorno. Quest’ultima incide per 2 euro a persona al giorno, bimbi piccoli ovviamente esclusi.
Giudizio finale: sicuramente tariffe non popolari, ma tutto sommato siamo stati bene e quindi ne è valsa la pena😄👍!!
large room, plenty of space where we didn't feel cramped. large bath which was great. nice sheets and towels. a pleasant location right on the ocean. a bit noisy but not bad. friendly front desk. make sure you see all the sites you can -- Mt. Etna.
Room good. Pool, bar and restaurant staff good. Breakfast not good. Breakfast Staff need to smile they look unhappy and sulking. Cooked breakfast is disgusting - the scramble eggs are the worst i have ever seen. How you can do that to eggs i have no idea. Sausage and bacon poor too. Please chef and management try the cooked breakfast for 10 days. I am not sure you would eat it yourselves. Better remove from menu than serve that it does not represent good italian cuisine. Would be nice to have some more fresh fruit e.g. grapes. Only one lift works.
What I liked: - The hotel boasts two lovely pools. - The on-site restaurant serves some of the best food I've had in the area, though it is pricey. - Breakfast is simple yet delicious, featuring eggs, frankfurts, bacon, cheese, pastries, fruit, juices, and wonderful coffee. - You are allowed to enjoy drinks by the pool. - 90% of the staff were extremely friendly and went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. - Free parking is available on site. What I disliked: - The room's air conditioning was not adjustable and only blew in one direction, making both the bathroom and bedroom uncomfortably warm. - I had to sleep on the pullout sofa as the bedroom was too hot. Thankfully, the sofa was available; otherwise, I don't know what I would have done. - The spa seemed expensive for a hot tub and sauna, so I didn't use it and can't comment on its quality. - There is an incredible rooftop with views of the bay and Mt. Etna that goes unused, which feels like a wasted space. - The location is very remote, situated in a residential area with nothing within walking distance except for two restaurants and a golf club affiliated with the hotel. - While you can walk to the bay, there are no pathways and the return trip is steep and uphill. - The hotel provides taxis, but they are quite costly. - There is an extra charge to use the kitchenette, which was not communicated beforehand. Additionally, no tea or coffee replacements were provided, which is unusual for a hotel of this caliber. **Tips:** - If you are checking in past 10:30 PM, be sure to call the hotel to ensure someone will be available to check you in. - Renting a car is essential for getting around, as without one, your travel options will be limited and expensive. - This hotel is perfect if you want to relax by the pool and do occasional excursions. However, if you're looking for more activities, you may find the location too remote.
