Location —
To the west the landscape becomes gentler with soft, rolling hills, and it is here one finds long sandy beaches. The weather is mild all year round and temperatures will not normally go below 15 degrees, even in the coldest months. Sicily has many lovely sandy beaches and a wealth of holiday towns and villages. Situated on the waterfront near Taormina, Giardini-Naxos is one of the most sophisticated seaside towns in Sicily and the sandy beach is considered one of the best on the island.
Hotel Description —
The Hotel Imperiale was restored in 2009 to its original splendour by architect Rosario Picciotto, who has managed to create a unique and distinctive hotel; a creative blend of the contemporary with the traditional. The extensive use of lava stone, together with rich furnishings, has resulted in a harmony of style, which perfectly combines the old with the new.
