On the Rocks

Orpheus has a great position. Hotel owners great nothing too much trouble. We travelled in November so very quiet with lots of Giadini-Naxos closed for the winter. It suited us and we were very lucky with the weather and sea was still warm!

Great Hosts

We loved our stay. Our hosts Rosa and Hamid were very kind to us and made our stay a wonderful experience. We were there during one of the worst storms in the last few years, huge waves, sadly some destruction to neighboring restaurants, but not to this hotel. We would stay there again.

Fantastic stay

Lovely hotel in probably the best location in Giardini Naxos, right beside the sea but slightly outside the main centre of the town. This location means that it is quiet and peaceful and also benefits from plentiful free parking. It seems that parking elsewhere in the town could be quite difficult, so this is an important consideration if you are planning to hire a car. There were several good restaurants very near the hotel, and it was a pleasant 5-10 minute walk along the seafront to the main centre of the town. Our room was clean and bright and had a balcony with an amazing view right over the sea. Even though it was very hot the week we stayed, the air conditioning kept us nice and cool. Breakfast was served on a terrace just beside the sea and with a great view of Etna in the distance. Breakfast itself was a good selection of cereals, yoghurt, pastries, fresh fruit, cold meats and cheese. What really made our stay here special was the friendly and helpful owners who made us feel very welcome. This was our first visit to Sicily and we really enjoyed Giardini Naxos. The beach and the choice of restaurants were excellent and there is lots to see and do in the surrounding area.

Kleines Hotel mit viel Flair

Für ein 2 ** Hotel aussergewöhlich. Die Möbilierung der Zimmer in der Mansarde ist einfach, aber zweckmäßig und in guten Zustand. Die Betten fand ich super. Das ganze Haus ist aufgeräumt und sauber geputzt. Das Hotel wirkt sehr gepflegt. Unschlagbar ist die Frühstücksterrasse mit Blick aufs Meer! Die Inhaber und das Personal waren sehr freundlich und haben uns stets weitergeholfen. Einziges Manko während unseres Aufenthalts war, dass Jugendliche nachts vor dem Hotel sehr laut waren. Aber dafür kann die Hotelleitung natürlich nichts. Ich kann das Hotel allen empfehlen, die eine schöne Lage schätzen und eine familiäre Atmosphäre und dafür Abstriche beim Komfort in Kauf nehmen.

Utsikt och personal av högsta klass.

Hotellet var precis det vi väntat oss, men lite till. Spenderade fyra nätter här tillsammans, och kan i efterhand säga att det är den bästa resa vi varit på. Mycket tack vare hotellet. Värdparet är helt fantastiska och alltid tillmötesgående samt serviceminded. Allt inom lätt promenadavstånd, fantastisk utsikt, enkel men bra frukost. Man hör havet trots stängda fönster, vilket vi uppskattade. Kanske inte något för en person med svårigheter att somna dock.

Hôtel de famille à l'ancienne, super vue

Pas de chichi dans cet établissement mais un confort de base largement suffisant et de très bon rapport qualité prix. Giardini Naxo est une ville touristique et en connait tous les travers, prix à la hausse, grosse fréquentation de gens pas respectueux. Mais à l'Orphéus vous êtes un peu en retrait de tout ça, en restant à proximité. L'accueil est chaleureux, le patron parle en français, et vous conseille sur les activités. Le petit déj est parfait.

Et smørhul i vankanten.

En lille uges ophold på Orpheus var en oplevelse. Lidt a la Faulty Towers - et ældre, lidt slidt familiedrevet hotel - men hvilken beliggenhed! Vi havde bestilt med balkon og havudsigt - og det må man sige, vi fik! Ubeskriveligt at vågne op til Middelhavet få meter fra morgenterrassen - og med stor morgenmadsterrase i stueetagen var oplevelsen komplet.

Mukava paikka!

Hiljainen, erittäin hyvällä ja rauhallisella paikalla oleva pieni hotelli.Bussipysäkille n. 10 metriä, rantaan samoin. Hotellin henkilökunta erittäin ystävällinen. Palvelutaso hyvä ja tapahtui "lähes huomaamattomasti". Aamiainen varsin niukka, mutta riittävä. Yleisten tilojen siisteys hyvä. Huoneen kalusteet hiukan nuhjaantuneita, mutta siistejä. Huone siivottiin joka päivä. Kolmen kattohuoneen yhteinen terassi valtava, lähes 300 m2. Terassilta mahtavat näköalat, kuten myös muista hotellin huoneista. Hotellin uimaranta pieni, vaatimaton laavakivinen poukama. Kaikkiaan hoteli vastasi hyvin ennakko-odotuksia.

Отель с самым удачным видом на Сицилии

Отдыхали в этом отеле в разгар сезона с конца июля по начало августа. Хочу сказать, что данный отель, а точнее вид отеля и место где он располагается изображается на открытках Сицилии. В ряду с такими достопримечательностями как вулкан Этна, городочком Noto и т.д. Вид из этого отеля действительно потрясающий. Все номера с видом на море и вулкан Этна. Терраса с которой открывался у нас вид метром 100 и рассчитана она на 3 номера, но за время отдыха мы на ней не пересекались с соседями. Пару вечеров мы предпочитали походу в ресторан - ужин на этой террасе продуктам из магазина. Каждый вечер возвращаясь с прогулки и выходя на террасу, наблюдая за вулканом, слушая как волны разбиваются о берег, мы понимали, что вернемся сюда еще раз...). Хочу отметить, что для нас вид отеля, чистота, сервис очень важны, но такие моменты как размер номера и отсутствие кондиционера меня совсем не волновало. Такого хватает и дома... . Повторюсь, что номер маленький, но Вы туда только спать приходите, а огромная терраса компенсирует этот недостаток. Спали мы с открытым окном и балконной дверью и кондиционер и необходимость кондиционера отпадала. Завтрак в отеле хороший, каждый день разные фрукты, соки. Нам хватало до ужина или обеда. Хотелось отметить очень теплую атмосферу отеля, всегда радушную встречу сотрудников отеля. Отдых удался, советуем этот отель, а мы обязательно вернемся на следущий год.
