Luxury hotels and resorts

As a family with grown up sons and their partners Castello San Marco was perfect for us. The food, hospitality, and comfort were all excellent. The gardens are delightful, I felt the website did not do them justice and the pool is in a perfect setting. Only one suggestion. The tennis courts were not open until 9.00 am. As the temperature was up to 35o it would have been nice to have access to them earlier and/or later. It was nice to be near Taormina to visit, but I was pleased we were not actually staying in the town which was very busy. I would definitely recommend the hotel to friends. Thank you again from all of us. A lovely find.

Lo staff ci ha fatti sentire come a casa. Esperienza unica.

Nous avions choisi le palazzo Sitano car sa situation dans le centre de Palerme , permet de visiter la ville à pieds. Le service à été impécable et le personnel trés professionel. Merci. Nous reviendrons .

Castello San Marco is a lovely hotel with "charming" (for which I interpret interesting and good quality design, with period features - not the average, sterile environment of chains) well equipped apartments (air con, power sockets, wifi, TV [if you ever needed it!], etc.). The pool is good, with an adjoining small restaurant for lunch. Access via a back gate to the hotel's private beach area (with lots of sun lounger/shade space). Spa is good, and worth a visit. Beautiful location - there were 2 or 3 weddings hosted in the grounds. Staff are incredibly helpful. Restaurant (breakfast and dinner) was good. Only down-sides were: CSM is quite isolated - 40 euro cab from Taormina (which is worth visiting); sun shades around pool are too small, so you cannot lie flat in the shade; there were already quite a lot of wines unavailable in the restaurant in late July.
