Nice, clean and friendly hotel. About 20 minute walk from the train station along beach front. Good pool and breakfast. Perfect for a quick overnight stay. Beautiful sunsets in the area if your dining out by the beach.

Lovely huge pool

Lovely huge pool. Very good breakfast. It was a kilometer to walk to the old town, but the walk was along the ocean.

The location and staff are good. The pool was nice. The mattress was absolutely terrible and needs to be updated. The shower head/ shower had mold. The wifi was also terrible. Not good for someone who’s travelling from out of country.

8/10 Very good

Friendly staff and walkable to the attractions. We could park the car before check-in. Although additional charges are required almost everything, such as parking, access to the private beach, beach towel and bottle of water, the staff explained clearly and we enjoyed the time at the beach.

The hotel was very uncomfortable - flat pillows, old mattresses. The rooms were nothing to write home about - small, not well decorated etc. We ate downstairs in the restaurant for dinner, and I got uncooked (raw in the middle) pork. I wouldn't stay here again - there are better choices in Cefalu.

Hotel Tourist is a short walk from the center of beautiful Cefalu. We arrived 2 hours before check-in time but our room was ready. As we flew at 15h, we requested if we could leave the room at 11.30h instead of 12.30h. As it is May this was also not a problem so we could get some extra sun by the lovely pool. The breakfast was excellent compared to other hotels with a lot of choice, good bread, fresh fruit, eggs. We will defenitly come back!

Chambre propre, personnel aimable et un balcon vue sur mer très agréable. Mais, un seul lit était fait lors de notre arrivée alors que 2 lits avait été demandés dès la réservation au mois de juillet. Petit déjeuner abondant et varié.

Lovely stay during the festival season

Stayed here during the first week of August when a festival was going on in the town of Cefalu. Although the party would go on until 2am, you couldn't really hear it in the rooms due to the thick glass window on the balcony doors. Great buffet breakfast and the rooms were cleaned if you asked them to be cleaned whilst we were out. We stayed in a triple, which was spacious enough. The only downside is that the shower gel/body wash wasn't topped up as we got towards the end of our stay. Stayed six nights and could honestly stay for a couple more as we enjoyed the weather, beach and the general area of the northern Sicilian coastline.

6/10 Good

Great pool but shuts 1-4pm. Very 1980s hotel so felt a bit depressing. Good breakfast. Cefalu is very expensive unfortunately. Too windy to make use of private beach. To be fair to the hotel they didnt shut the pool (maybe because we couldn't use the beach). That part of the coast seems to have rip tides too so I'm not sure its safe for swimming anyhow. Cefalu is very pretty so if you have a bigger budget I would recommend looking elsewhere.

Hyper déçus

Nous avons réservé une excursion en mer, l'hôtesse nous avait bien confirmé que ce serait annulable en cas de mauvaise météo. De violents orages etaient prévus, nous n'avons donc pas pris le risque de partir en mer. Nous avons perdu 150 euros. C'est incorrect.
isabelle, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Tolle Lage. In kurzer Zeit ist Cefalu zu Fuss gut erreichbar. Vor vielen Dank an die Hotel Direktorin, welche uns beim kaputten Fahrzeug helfen konnte. Beim Frühstück war unserer Meinung nach keine Musik nötig. Ausserdem war die Musik zu laut und hat eher gestört als unterhalten. Auch andere Gäste mussten das Volumen runter drehen. Ausserdem war der Baulärm von der strasse her zu hören. Beim Frühstück kann man keine kulinarischen Höhenflüge erwarten, man hat sich aber sehr bemüht. Frische Früchte hat uns am Besten gefallen. Parkplatz fanden wir zu teuer. Sonst hat alles geklappt. Danke
