    Big push from the staff to go on trips / tours / linked restaurants. None of that is really necessary.

    Very friendly and helpful staff at this boutique hotel close to the town. It only accommodates 24 people and feels special. Some rooms have large terraces and great views. Lovely pool and great breakfast outside near the pool. Wished we had stayed longer.

    The fact that you need to wear a cap to swim in the swimming pool is just ridiculous! There was nobody swimming in our whole stay except pigeons which is a bit sad since the view is beautiful and weather is great

    The staff is amazing.. they make your stay a better experience, also the way they solve issues and help you is fantastic The girls at the reception, the guys at the breakfast area and the cleaners are exceptional

    Beautiful and very well maintained hotel in a quiet place but still close to Lipari center. Five minute walk. Breakfast is served close to the pool from the pool bar. The breakfast was very good and they will make you a omelette, scrambled eggs or egg and bacon++ on request. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We really loved it and hope to come back again. The roms are beautiful with a large and very nice bathroom. The air conditioning works really well. We had a room downstairs which has a private sitting area outside.

    Only thing that could be improved would be the selection of drinks available at the bar, specifically beer on draught rather than bottle (being very picky here!)

    Excellent hotel with extremely attentive staff. A good selection of food available at breakfast (buffet/fried eggs and bacon on request). 10/10 for cleanliness and great pool facilities

    The hotel is not in the main part of town (which is both good and bad). We didn’t mind the 10 minute walk into the main town. This is the only potential negative I can come up with.

    Th staff were excellent. Special mention to Giusy who was a wealth of knowledge and took care of our bookings. Her English is excellent, providing us with information. Nothing was too difficult, even booking us a taxi to meet the ferry and take us to the train station hen we were leaving. I must also mention Fabrizio, who makes the best omelettes and scrambled eggs for breakfast. A very relaxing environment.

    Being the only guests; no eating options other than breakfast; each journey to or from hotel needs a taxi at 15€ for a 5 minute journey (mostly uphill!).

    The staff were incredibly helpful and thoughtful.

    Quiet hotel outside the centre of Lipari

    Good, comfortable hotel just outside the centre of Lipari. From the harbour you can walk there in 10 minutes. The hotel will pick you up at the harbour for 10 € if you wish. Clean double rooms with AC, bathroom and breakfast. I stayed in two different rooms: room no. 6 and room no. 2. Both rooms and bathrooms are quite similar. Although room no. 6 is a tiny bit bigger, I preferred room no. 2 on the ground floor. I found it a little quieter there and you also have a small terrace at the front. Good buffet breakfast outside by the pool. Less common in Sicily but this hotel also puts eggs and bacon on the breakfast menu. A special mention for the extremely friendly and deserving Sara (Sareta) who works at the reception and also helps prepare breakfast in the morning. She answers all your questions and arranges just about everything. To visit other islands from Lipari, you can shop around in the harbour where you arrive from Milazzo or Messina. However many excursions leave from the nearby, picturesque Marina Corte. Many restaurants between both harbours. Lipari itself is also a beautiful island.

    Sara and her team were excellent hosts. We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Villa Cute. The facilities were great. Lovely breakfast and very clean and comfortable rooms. Highly recommend this quiet and well run hotel.

    It was a shame that the water wasn't complementary, given the heat and the fact that the nearest shop is a good few minutes down the hill. Other amenities (e.g glasses, bottle opener, kettle) were also lacking. The hotel is about a 12 minute walk from port, which we were aware of, but it's a hard 12 minutes in the Sicilian heat with bags!!

    A friendly family-run hotel with a good pool. We had a nice room with a patio accessing the pool area. The breakfast was good, and eaten at the pool bar.

    The property was in a great location - lovely views (we had a balcony room) and only a short walk to the main streets. Comfortable and spotlessly clean. The pool area is relaxing and has spectacular views as well. The owner very kindly drove us to the ferry on the day of our departure.

    The Wi-Fi didn’t reach to our room so it is something that could be improved and the little safe in our room didn’t fit my laptop however the location was extremely safe and didn’t feel risky leaving things locked in the room.

    Loved the location, the space, facilities and how clean it was. Loved having pick-up and drop off transfers included from the port. The amazing views of the sea and poolside area was fabulous. Room was decorated beautifully and seemed to have been renovated recently as lovely modern touches. Staff were super friendly and accommodating.
