Hotel Alexander

A very nicely decorated hotel with lots of Sicilian motifs and pictures. Beautiful and spacious rooms, very nice bathroom, terrace (ours with a view of Mount Etna). Everything is very clean and tidy. The staff is very friendly, the landlady Virdzini is always at your service and very kind, nice and smiling, the woman is an empress. The rest of the staff are also at your service and always smiling. If you stayed at the pool, you will enjoy the kind and smiling Salvatore who will fulfill your every wish, he made us coffee, made cocktails, prepared lasagna for lunch👌, a wonderful man, a big thank you to him. The hotel is in a quiet area, Rekanati, Gardini Naxos, near the beach, where guests of the hotel have a discount on sunbeds. There is a bus station nearby for Taormima (return ticket €3), Catania, Syracuse... All in all a wonderful experience in a wonderful country with wonderful people. Any recommendation, but don't rush to leave room for me, again😂😂😂 Biljana Tomovic, Belgrade, Serbia🇷🇸

My husband and I were in Sicily this summer and we stayed at the Alexander hotel for seven nights. Immediately I have to say that I read all the reviews on this site that are sent to the hotel (good and bad), so I thought I knew what I should expect. However, the hotel surprised me in a positive way, and that is the reason I want to leave a comment. The hotel is really located about 150m from the beach and in a very quiet part of Giardini Naxos. It is very nice and the rooms are very spacious and very clean- that is very important to me. They clean rooms every day and they change towels every morning. The hotel staff is attentive, friendly and always willing to help and give advice about staying on the island, tours, location ... Especially, I want to emphasize that one of the owners is always in the hotel, or Mrs. Virginia or her wonderful father, so that you can always ask them if you need anything. During our stay they tried to help us in every way. I saw a comment on "meager" breakfast in the hotel and I was afraid because my husband can eat a lot and since I was already familiar with what means in Italy continental breakfast, but luckily there was plenty of food. Every morning we were served: cereals, yogurt, jam, ham, cheese, salami, biscuits, bread, watermelon, cakes and obligatory coffee or tea of your choice. The waitress was constantly filling the plates so that no one is left hungry. I want to add that we had a very spacious room with a balcony with a view of the sea and the volcano Etna, it was great view to enjoy on our honeymoon :) And finally I want to say hello to a lovely lady Virginia and her fantastic father, Alessandro, who has made my stay in Sicily complete and helped me to practice my Italian. In any case, all recommendations for the hotel and the wonderful people who stay and work in it.

We had a great time there, we are pleased with the service, room, cleanliness and very friendly staff. The beach is not far, it is also close to the bus station where you can catch a bus and go to Taormina, which we recommend. :) The hotel is located in a quiet part of Giardini Naxos. Nearby you have a few shops and some good restaurants.

Totally recommended. The hotel is very clean, rooms are spacious with a nice balcony and renewed bathroom. Rooms are always clean. The staff is super friendly! Swimming pool is in the sun all day and also very clean. Enough sunbeds. Small minor points are the concise breakfast and bad WiFi connection, but that didn’t make our stay less good.

We had our 1st holiday as a couple with no children , and all I can say is thank you so much for making it very memorable. The owners and employees could not have been more welcoming and friendly. In our experience and opinion this hotel is a hidden gem. The rooms are clean and light with everything you need. The hotel is close to the beach and restaurants also with the advantage of the small but adequate bus station nearby, this station is also a pickup point for a lot of the excursions you may like to do .

All of the staff at this hotel were lovely and so helpful! It is a short walk from the beach and restaurants in Giardini Naxos and the bus that goes to Taormina stops right outside. The breakfast is simple but perfect to start the day with!

Lovely family hotel near all attractions & shops, bus stops to reach Godfather tour & taomina, Pool cleaned daily plus maid service each day! Hotel in a quiet location but on the doorstep to everything needed...Staff very helpful & kind, will stay again as visit Sicily often.

Stayed for 7 nights which was about right. Hotel is of a good standard overall and is very clean. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is adequate if a little basic and not always replenished promptly. I think perhaps a few more staff would be useful. Likewise the pool bar which didn't open so we had to go to reception for drinks etc. I don't want to be overly critical as we were made to feel so welcome but these little improvements would make this hotel exceptional. The location is excellent and close to amenities.
