The Hotel Airone is situated on mount Etna, roughly 1km from the centre of town with the most incredible panorama of over 40 kilometres of coast, from Acireale to Taormina. This offers guests both the opportunity to sun bathe and ski. Warm and comfortable, the hotel has been recently renovated and retains its country manor house feel without losing any of its elegance and style. Surrounded by well kept gardens with mature tropical trees and shrubs gives the hotel a refined feel. Within the garden there is an inviting freeform swimming pool that enjoys panoramic views towards the sea (Ionian Coast). For relaxation and the simplicity of country tranquillity this is the place to be.
Most of the spacious rooms have a balcony and can offer sanctuary to the worldweary. The "Ristorante Zeffirelli" restaurant, named after the famous film director, offers genuine, traditional cooking in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Local cuisine features heavily but there are one or two international dishes which are done to perfection also.
The location of the hotel Airone allows Guests to retain their golf handicap on the first Sicilian 18 hole golf course, as it is situated on the slopes of Etna. Other local activities include horse riding, trekking and woods with solidified lava castings and craters, the hotel is happy to arrange tours and trips to the ski slopes (in season). This hotel is ideal for the active as well as those just looking for a few days spent in the sun relaxing and enjoying the views.
