Wow
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

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!

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.

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!

Loved the staff, the restaurant and the surroundings. Access to Etna was 20 minutes from the property and we loved walking in the Forrest around the hotel. One evening we had an excellent meal in the restaurant, another evening family style pizza meal with the owners and family. A great family feel to the hotel and a lovely secluded place to visit. Quite weather dependent as there is nothing nearby if the sun isn’t shining. Great place to visit for unwinding.

We had an incredible stay. Very relaxing yet close to etna and wineries.
The rooms are spacious, up to date and very quiet.
The on site restaurant provides good meals with a typical sicilian flavor that we really enjoyed.
The staff is friendly and attentionate.
We would recomend Bosco Ciancio to anyone!

Living on Etna
Tucked away on the slope of Mount Etna, this hotel offers amazing views from the room, a very cosy patio and comfortable accommodations in a beautiful stone-and-wood building. Nice fixed-menu four-course dinners are offered every night. Good wi-fi, too.

Tranquility at its best
From start to finish, we were absolutely amazed by this place. The grounds are very well-kept, the staff are super friendly and the hotel building itself is beautiful. The breakfast served in the morning was great, with lots of variety and local ingredients on offer. Similarly, the dinner in the evening was fantastic and they catered for our vegetarian diet. We also tried the lunch during one of our days and it was very tasty.
All in all this is a great place to stay for someone who wants to relax and explore Mount Etna which is approximately 30 minutes drive from Bosco Ciancio.
