Gorgeous property in the forest.
If you are looking for a place where you can get away from the chaos of every day life whilst enjoying some beautiful countryside and some amazing food, then this is the place for you. The location is lovely, the people who work here are also great. Kira the dog is very sweet. They have a nice family room where you can spend your evening reading, or working or playing billiard. The offer dinner, and the food is delicious. The pool is beautiful but we got there a bit late and I had work to do so we didn't actually get to use it. We had a basic room, which is a bit small. Next time I will get the Castagno, which is bigger and more modern. This is not the place for you if you like to 'do something', unless it's take walks in the countryside and just relax.

Loved the staff, the restaurant and the surroundings. Access to Etna was 20 minutes from the property and we loved walking in the Forrest around the hotel. One evening we had an excellent meal in the restaurant, another evening family style pizza meal with the owners and family. A great family feel to the hotel and a lovely secluded place to visit. Quite weather dependent as there is nothing nearby if the sun isn’t shining. Great place to visit for unwinding.

We had an incredible stay. Very relaxing yet close to etna and wineries. The rooms are spacious, up to date and very quiet. The on site restaurant provides good meals with a typical sicilian flavor that we really enjoyed. The staff is friendly and attentionate. We would recomend Bosco Ciancio to anyone!

Living on Etna
Tucked away on the slope of Mount Etna, this hotel offers amazing views from the room, a very cosy patio and comfortable accommodations in a beautiful stone-and-wood building. Nice fixed-menu four-course dinners are offered every night. Good wi-fi, too.

Tranquility at its best
From start to finish, we were absolutely amazed by this place. The grounds are very well-kept, the staff are super friendly and the hotel building itself is beautiful. The breakfast served in the morning was great, with lots of variety and local ingredients on offer. Similarly, the dinner in the evening was fantastic and they catered for our vegetarian diet. We also tried the lunch during one of our days and it was very tasty. All in all this is a great place to stay for someone who wants to relax and explore Mount Etna which is approximately 30 minutes drive from Bosco Ciancio.

Beautiful hotel in a spectacular location.
Bosco Ciancio is a wonderful small hotel with a staff that wants to enhance your stay. They will help with directions, restaurant recommendations, and how to best see the area. Their comfortable rooms are also tastefully furnished. Near reception are several welcoming sitting areas, as well as outdoor decks, both encouraging either quiet contemplation of the beautiful setting or lively conversation over espresso or a glass of wine. The restaurant offers high quality regional food, exceptional local wines at very reasonable price.

Beaty on Etna
Bosco Ciancio is a beautiful place. With view of Etna to one side and the valley to the other. Sunsets are beautiful from the hotel. Tha staff was very friendly and spoke both English and German The room was fresh and clean. The only negative was, that there was no internet connection in the rooms. Breakfast was okay, but typically Italian with to much sweet stuff, so and so bread and to few options of salami, cheese and so. Would recommend this place to everyone and will definitely come back.

Memorable - if not quite as good as it could be.
Beautiful rustic building - in a peaceful location, surrounded by chestnut trees, on the slopes of Mount Etna. Newly furnished room was tastefully decorated with a view of the mountain, and everything worked. Good home-cooked dinner was reasonable value - which was fortunate, given the lack of any alternatives within walking distance. Breakfast was adequate if rather unimaginative (lacking any fresh local ingredients) - and was served outside on the terrace when the sun was shining. The staff were friendly and hospitable, but disorganised, and spoke no English, so communication was a problem for us - and payment was cash only (despite Expedia's promise that credit cards were accepted) We enjoyed our two-night stay, but wished for just a little more attention to detail, and a more imaginative breakfast menu. Then it would be perfect!
