Lovely hotel full of character and charm! Each floor was filled with interesting and unique décor. Absolutely breathtaking view of Mount Etna. In a prime location to catch the beautiful view of Toarmina on the walk down to the village. Such a friendly staff and wonderful entertainment at dinner. I’d love to return in the summer, go for a swim... More

We stayed at Hotel Villa Sonia in late September 2011. Beautiful views, fabulous food and the staff could not have been more friendly and accommodating. It is a holiday we will always remember for all the right reasons. The rooms were authenic and spacious, the pool was extremely clean. The bar outside boasted a varied menu to cater for all... More

We stayed at the hotel VILLA SONIA at the end of august and in to september, and will remember it for years to come. All of the staff where absolutly great, and could not be more helpful. The food in their resturants was second to none! The menu never the same, the chef has a great way with anything he... More

We loved this hotel. Staff were delightful. The view of Etna from our balcony was fantastic. Breakfast was good with lots of variety. Beautiful decor. More

My title says it all. Interior Walls don't seem to constrain sounds so one hears every neighbour and I assume they can hear me too!! Staff v helpful. Don't think of staying here rather than Taormina unless you have a vehicle. There is a shuttle bus and a local bus but these would not be realistic options in the evening More

Friendly and very helpful staff complemented this exquisitely designed, decorated, furnished hotel in a stunning location. The Etna panorama was breath-taking, I spent hours just taking it all in. Castelmola village just above was very charming too, with a range of bar cafe restaurants. The coast, Taormina and Gardinia-Naxos nearby were very pleasant too. More

Castelmola is the epitome of the traditional medieval Italian town, clinging to it's mountain top. We were blown away by the setting of this hotel and by the friendliness and service we found there. We booked at the last minute since we didn't want to go back to a previous "hotel of horrors" and drove up not really knowing what... More

We stayed at Villa Sonia a few years ago for a week and this time returned for just 3 nights at the end of a tour of Sicily. We loved Villa Sonia just as much. The position is fantastic. Castelmola is a nice village with enough bars and restaurants to eat out with variety (not checked but you could probably... More

What a great hotel this was. I was worried before we went out as there were some negative reports - but totally unjustified. If you want modern, stylish hotel then this is not for you. What it is, is full of charachter, charm, and rustic ornaments. The resort is peaceful and relaxing. The staff could not be more helpful. Amazing... More
