Hotel Caesar Palace

The second half of our Newmarket Holiday in Sicily was spent at this hotel, which is a large hotel situated adjacent to a busy road some distance from the beach, however, there is a shuttle provided. The hotel has 2 swimming pool areas surrounded by gardens and is well kept and a pleasant place to sit and listen to/watch the many birds that are found in the area. We were given a large well furnished room on the 4th floor with a view of the smaller of the 2 pools, and the fields beyond the boundary of the hotel, however, unlike other rooms, it had no balcony. We had requested twin beds and were happy to find that the sofa bed had been assembled and made up to comply with this request. Unfortunately this bed proved to be not very comfortable, and we were confused when towards the end of our stay we were informed by other members of our group that their rooms had 2 permanent beds, one double and one single, even though they only needed the one (double) bed. Why were we given a room with a temporary bed when one of these other rooms would have been more practical, and comfortable, for our needs? The room itself was quite large with fairly small bath/shower room. Unfortunately on the day of arrival no hot water was available, and on day 2 it was warm, at best. Not what you would expect of a hotel of this size. The food is served buffet style and the options were good and often replenished. Some of the restaurant staff interacted well with their guests. During the evening meal service (7pm-9pm) all inclusive rules applied and water, beer and wine (red and white) was available to be consumed in the restaurant.One negative was the rubber tablecloths which gave the restaurant a downmarket feel. The hotel was kept clean and tidy, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Overall a good choice of hotel by Newmarket.

Lovely hotel and offers free shuttle bus from hotel into town and back again! Lovely friendly staff, clean rooms and nice selection of food. Very reasonable prices in bar for drinks, lovely clean pool. Overall a good friendly hotel. Would definitely stay here again.

Well maintained hotel with large outdoor pool. Rooms are clean and spacious and some with balconies. Bar area comfortable and accessible to outside space. Staff was friendly and efficient. Restaurants are short walk and many near waterfront. Breakfast offered many choices

Very happy with our stay at Hotel Caesar Palace, we stayed all inclusive. We stayed in room 222 on the second floor, lovely terrace with table & chairs although only 1 sun lounger? About 1 hour transfer from Catania Airport, excellent first impressions, everyone we met was friendly & welcoming. Reception staff very professional. Room was immaculate & spotlessly clean, daily housekeeping. Food was great, big restaurant, we never had to queue, maitre d - Franco - seems to have everything under control. Lots of choice, something for everyone, plenty of fresh salad/fruit etc… Hot & cold breakfasts available. Wine was fine, as was beer, whisky, vodka, gin & brandy also available as part of all inclusive. Pool area is lovely, there were always loungers available although I would imagine it would be much busier in July/August. A few shops around the hotel & a big supermarket 5 minutes walk away. We caught bus to Taormina which was €1.90 each way. It wasn’t a Shuttle bus run by the hotel, rather a regular bus service with stops right outside the hotel. Didn’t run on time though! Taormina is stunning & well worth a visit, about 30 minutes on bus along beautiful costal roads. There is some entertainment at night which was ok. Yes, parts of the hotel could do with a little TLC but it didn’t detract from our stay at all. Would definitely recommend & would definitely return. Thank you to all the hard working staff at Hotel Caesar Palace, we had a super time!

Great hotel, clean, well run, great pool and good food choice if all-inclusive Oh and Etna as a backdrop what's not to like. Staff very professional, welcoming and helpful. Bar well stocked but does have a policy of paper cups around pool, good idea no one wants to step on broken glass. Reception very helpful and even take late payment of bar bill if using a bottle of wine over two nights. Bar keep in fridge with your room number on nothing seems too much. Great car parking, has underground car park, but good luck driving the Sicilians are potty 😁
