Hotel Sant'Elia, hotel in Messina

Located just 200 metres from Messina Port, Hotel S. Elia offers spacious and elegant rooms with air conditioning. The S. Elia Hotel is decorated in a Liberty style and features antique furniture.

Just stayed one night after long train ride arriving in early evening. Nice reception area etc. Room was nothing special but then nothing terrible, just overdue for a new fit-out, but was it clean and a good size and even had a door to open onto street etc. Priced right for budget travellers, or when you just want a bed for the night to break up a long train trip. Breakfast was actually very good in the nice area downstairs and we left for the station soon after.

Hotel La Residenza, hotel in Messina

Hotel La Residenza is centrally located in Messina, a 10-minute walk from the Cathedral. The hotel offers air-conditioned rooms with a flat-screen TV.

We probably had an upgrade as the room was much bigger than I expected, with a little separate kitchen. The position was great for using the public transport. All the staff there were very friendly and helpful. There is a fantastic bread shop just around the corner which also did pizza and hot dishes at lunchtime, calle 'Non solo pane', I can't recommend it highly enough? If/when we return to Messina, we would happily stay there.

    Unaware that ferry arrival at almost midnight was at a cargo terminal, miles from anywhere, no taxis but helped by kind crew member. Nervous as solo traveller but most accommodating receptionist guided me by phone into stay. Tramline on waterfront easy access to station. Only stopping point to Palermo - can’t judge attractions.

    Messina is a pretty city in a beautiful spot that is off the radar for most travelers. The cathedral, rebuilt after the 1908 earthquake, is beautiful, with Byzantine mosaics in the apses that miraculously survived. The clock tower mechanical clock is spectacular even though it only operates once a day. The regional museum is full of treasures that were salvaged from churches destroyed in the earthquake. The highlights are two Caravaggios and an Antonello da Messina triptych. Interestingly, Messina appears not to promote itself. The tourist office seemed to always be closed. I ended up asking in shops what sights to see, how to get to them on busses, and for restaurant recommendations. Locals were very glad to help me with that information.

    we stayed 4 nights, allowing enough time t spend in Messina as well as use it as a base to travel to other Sicily locations. it had great walkability although the sidewalks/curbs were a little challenging with a suitcase. the noon Duomo show was definitely a highlight

    The town is Ok for a day & night.

    The town is Ok for a day & night. The cathedral at 12pm is the biggest thing in town and it is worth a look for the curious. Note all the bars around the square have a surcharge just to sit down - which they don't advertise. Try the Sri Lankan restaurants around town, delicious food at a great price.

    we only stayed 3 nights, the area we stayed was very busy not far from ferry crossings. We visited Taormina and Cefalu, 2 nearby cities. Didn't get to see much of Messina itself. Did visit beach which was very nice.

    Messina doesn't have a lot of attractions - the Camponile was interesting to see at midday, as well as the Norman cathedral, for which you could really see the Mudejar influence - something I found surprising for Italy. OTOH, it also means there were fewer tourists about, which suited us to a tee. If you are into hiking, it looks like the mountains above the city would have some nice trails with views out over both the Ionian and Tyrrhenian seas.

    This delightful hotel is located just a short walk from the main shopping strip and historic centre of Messina. The room was cleverly designed to maximise space and the generous bathroom was spotlessly clean. There was even a small kitchenette with coffee making facilites. The hotel is beautifully furnished with lush upholstered furniture, fabric wall coverings and oozes charm and grace. The roof top terrace is the perfect spot for a delicious breakfast.

    My host Carmelo,was very attentive and kind. He went out of his way to assist me in finding a clinic in Messina,Sicily where I could get a Covid Molecular test in order to board my flight back to Montreal,Canada! The bed was very comfortable and the Air Conditioning functioned well. I had a fresh espresso coffee awaiting me both mornings I stayed there! Grazie Carmelo! Concetta dal 🇨🇦

    perfect location, typical Italian appartment with (sometimes) arguing neighbours and some construction activity next door. real life ! very quiet street outside - exceptional. helpful owner and colleague in case something was needed. note - Messina is not a 5 star territory. if you look for that you must go to Taormina or stay on your cruise ship. very good value for the price

    the staff went above and beyond in hospitality. the staff waited for us outside the building, that made us very easy to identify the exact location and check in. the room is high ceiling, modern and spacious. location is very good, close to the shopping, restaurants area and not far from train station. I highly recommend this hotel and have no hesitation to stay here again.

    This is a really nice apartment in Messina located a short walk to the historic centre. The Botanical garden down the street was a real treat. The hosts are very responsive to any concerns, and acted quickly to rectify some missing amenities. In fact, they really went the extra mile to make me happy. Everything in the apartment seem very new.

    Antonella was a charming host and very helpful to a first time visitor to Messina(I had previously jut passed through on the way to other places). Messina is worthy of more attention. Maybe next year several days, not just one. I would stay here (Il Galleone) for sure. And it’s in very nice, historic part of the city.

    In Italy the breakfast is not exactly the continental size. Here you have perfect choice of whatever you need. Very good cofee and omelet. Great people and very kind. If visiting Messina this is a perfect choice. Parking nearly for free in front of the hotel. Rooms are big, clean and comfortable. Love the bathroom!!!

    Staying here is like staying at the home of an affluent relative. The house is stunning, and does not feel like a hotel at all. Staff are completely unobtrusive and yet very helpful if need be. If you happen to be in Messina, treat yourself to this, you will not be disappointed.

    Great place near the cathedral and close to the harbour. Very friendly staff. And a great concept for breakfast: order the day before what you want to eat and get served at your place. This is great and safes a lot of food wasted on the always too big buffets in other hotels.
