This is an oasis of quiet. An old farmhouse, beautifully appointed. They will make dinner and breakfast for you. There is a lovely restaurant-bar area. You can walk a little ways in the woods. There is a pool. It was a relief to spend two nights here away from the cities. The mt etna park is just 23km away. Perfect!
Such a beautiful and secluded area. The building is beautiful and quaint. It’s really quiet and peaceful. Staff is very friendly and the hotel restaurant is great!
I would have wished for a nice hike or trail, there was some tracks, but a bit difficult to follow. They have some plastic grass in the courtyard which is a bummer!
Gorgeous property located 30 minutes from the base of mount Etna. The rooms are beautiful and well decorated. Gorgeous views. The food at the restaurant was amazing. The staff were incredibly helpful and responsive. We had a lovely time here and only wished we could have stayed longer. Highly recommended. We will be back!
We had a fantastic 3 day stay at Bosco. A very comfortable family room with lovely views front and back and a wonderful pool to cool down in. Breakfast was included and bountiful with many homemade cakes to chose from. We decided to visit Mt Etna and were informed by the owners that we could claim a free lunch at the top. A nice bonus. I would highly recommend this hotel for anyone wanting to explore the area. Thanks for a great stay. The Catt-Marrisons
Beautiful clean room on to lovely courtyard - Alicandro was amazing - nothing was too much trouble - checking us in early when she was baking cakes for a wedding, making us the best lunch we’ve had in Sicily, explaining wine (which was amazing) suggesting and making fantastic drinks and letting us have breakfast early when we left early for a trip to etna. We watched etna erupting from the patio and had brilliant meals. No air conditioning but the temperature in the area is much lower than on the coast and totally bearable. Loved it all and hope to come back soon x
I had high hopes for this hotel unfortunately they were not realized. It was advertised as a room with a view of Mt Etna and we were even charged additional for this non existent view. The only view of Mt Erna from this property is way over in the corner of the courtyard and just the bare tops are visible.
The other main issue other than it not having a view is that it does not have a functioning pool. The pool does not have a filtration system so the water is green in color and most likely dangerous to swim in.
Beyond these 2 things, the old house and grounds are pretty. We had dinner one evening which was fairly over priced for what you got. The pasta was good and the steak was mediocre. Sadly I can not recommend this hotel.
Lovely property, peacful location in the mountains and friendly staff. Everything you may need is provided for, from breakfast to dinner or a drink to relax. Would highly reccomend!
This place is absolutely amazing! Its away in the middle of nowhere, quite and has a very positive vibe. The rooms and bathrooms are large and comfy, service is superb. Breakfast is continental and enough to get you going. I totally recommend Bosco Ciancio and would stay there again :-)
The Villa is beautiful, updated, comfortable and very quiet. The staff were amazing. They take time to talk to you, make you feel at home. The food I must say was the best we had in Sicily! The dinner menu's were amazing. This part of Etna is beautiful. I highly recommend staying here!

Gorgeous property in the forest.
If you are looking for a place where you can get away from the chaos of every day life whilst enjoying some beautiful countryside and some amazing food, then this is the place for you. The location is lovely, the people who work here are also great. Kira the dog is very sweet. They have a nice family room where you can spend your evening reading, or working or playing billiard. The offer dinner, and the food is delicious. The pool is beautiful but we got there a bit late and I had work to do so we didn't actually get to use it.
We had a basic room, which is a bit small. Next time I will get the Castagno, which is bigger and more modern.
This is not the place for you if you like to 'do something', unless it's take walks in the countryside and just relax.
Nous avons passé un séjour exceptionnel dans cet établissement. Calme, en pleine nature, une parenthèse de bonheur. La piscine est très belle et pratique pour se détendre après avoir grimpé l’Etna qui est facilement accessible depuis l’hôtel.
Le restaurant de l’hôtel est fabuleux, les plats sont fins et très bien présentés.
Seul petit point moins bien le petit déjeuné qui est cher pour pas grand chose.
Nous recommandons vivement cet établissement.
Il luogo è meraviglioso: ai piedi dell'Etna, in un parco, con questi "vecchi" locali riattati con gusto. In più il servizio è stato di estrema cortesia e disponibilità. Anche il ristorante ha proposto una cena ottima e abbondante (!!). Il tutto ad un prezzo più che adeguato. Il rammarico è stato non poter usufruire della piscina, causa maltempo...
This place is absolutely beautiful and lovely located next to Etna and it’s surroundings. Kira the family dog will be welcoming you at the parking area. We had a perfect stay and the foosd was perfecto!
Detta är ett härligt boende, värden brinner för att leverera allt vad de har att erbjuda, maten är god, rummen fräscha och rymliga, omgivningen är härligt grönskande. Hotellet ligger perfekt för den som vill besöka Etna. Poolen var stängd (för kall) när vi var där men är tillräckligt stor. Hit kommer vi gärna tillbaka.
