Overall

If you want to explore a bit more the area, the hotel is just a few minutes walk from the famous Greek Theatre and a short drive from Mount Etna, one of the world’s most active volcanoes. Also, you can explore the town’s historic sites and soak up the local culture.

The only downside of this stunning property is the price, however, they are currently running a 25% off deal — with our drama included — so if you are looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience in a stunning location, The San Domenico Palace is definitely worth considering.
