Top Cefalù Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riva del Sole

8/10 Good

"Bed was a bit stiff but good view"

Hotel Al Pescatore

10/10 Excellent

"Bon emplacement avec une voiture. Il nous accommodé avec un early check-in et ce fut très apprécié! La distance à pied de Cefalu ce fait bien et à coté du super restaurant La Calette"

Blue Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and staff. Few quirky bits. There is no need to be charged for towels to the beach at a beach hotel and a 5Euro fee when a towel is used for an hour is silly. In respect of the staff, they did waive that fee, but it should never be charged in any case. It's too bad the restaurant is only a breakfast and lunch option as many travellers would like too tay and enjoy the wonderful scenery All in all 5 stars and good value."

B&B Ma&Mi For You

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here 1 night. The room was clean and perfect. The continental breakfast was tasty. Location is walkable to good food and the beaches. Parking is free but limited. We felt lucky to find a spot. It’s a little confusing which building the apt is in. FYI- once you park, walk back up to toward the street and the building is on the left. Look for the glass doors leading to a dark, empty lobby. Enter the building and walk to the left, take the tiny elevator to the 4th floor."

Villa Dei Melograni Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic boutique hotel. Very quiet, amazing staff and food, only a short walk into town. Definitely will be staying here again!"

"Nous avons beaucoup aimé le design de l’endroit en tant que designer c’était très très beau , de bon goût . L’air climatisé était extrêmement efficace , un gros plus ."

Hotiday Cefalù Mazzaforno

8/10 Good

"Beautiful location but make sure to stay at the main hotel Baia el capitano instead of the Hotiday apartment style across the street. It shares amenities but very basic rooms. You will want to be in the main building with the amazing rooftop views but of course, for approx $100-$200 less, you can stay across the street. We regret not reading the fine print on location, as pictures show the main hotel not the apartments. Has access to private beach, walkable or shuttle and breathtaking 180 degree rooftop views on the terrace"
