San Calogero Sanctuary

We enjoyed our stay at the Massimo Plaza Hotel. The best aspect was the location across from the Teatro Massimo, which is the third largest opera house in Europe and a meeting place for many local tours. The neighborhood is nice and very walkable near restaurants and markets. Breakfast in the dining room was okay with an assortment of breads, fruit and salami and cheeses. The main downside of the hotel was that the room was dated and worn. Parking is a 5 minute walk on a side street in a public lot-reservations are needed (25 euros/day),

Delightful hotel, well positioned, extremely helpful friendly staff, room very funky (moped on the ceiling), my only gripe was how long the hot water took to come through the shower, there were times when I could read another chapter of my book before finally being able to step into the shower
