This is a delightful hotel in a very scenic town. We felt at home as soon as we walked in. Our room was spacious and very comfortable with a small balcony overlooking the sea. Breakfast was a buffet style affair and was relatively simple but...More
Not many people know Scilla unless you're from here, and the Hotel Palazzo Krataiis is in one of the best spots. We had a first floor room with a balcony and sea view, beach approx' 50m away, and of course a fantastic view of the...More
It's a hotel with a lot of character, the rooms were clean and very spacious with an outdoor seating area with a glimpse of the straits of Messina. I was on the 3rd floor and there was no offer of any help with my luggage...More
Agreeable hotel in 18th century villa right beneath the Castello Ruffo in the charming town of Scilla. We were told nonchalantly at the reception that our room was on the third floor and there was no lift. No offer to help carry our suitcases up...More

In Sicily, my favourite place is Syracuse/Siracusa. It's a very pleasant Italian seaside city with a strong greek influence and has fantastic Seafood. I would also recommend a circular drive around Mount Etna in the national park area. If you aren't driving there are plenty of organised tours.
On the mainland, Reggio Calabria is a nice place to have lunch. It also has an interesting museum, is good for shopping and has nice views across the Straits of Messina and towards Mount Etna on a clear day. It's where the ferries go from so you will be passing by anyway. Two more interesting places on the mainland are Scilla-as featured in Greek Mythology- which, like all Italian coastal towns has a nice beach, castle and church, it's very popular with tourists. It is also fairly convenient for the motorway but isn't the most fun to reach if you're the driver. My favourite place in Calabria on the mainland is Gerace an ancient and charming fortified hill town with a lovely cathedral, a ruined Norman castle and just generally charming. It's not the biggest place though so you'd struggle to spend more than a few hours there. Tropea is another nice stop off too. Naples and Pompeii are well worth a visit if you are going that far North.
One place to avoid in my opinion, is Messina. You will pass through it to get from the mainland to Sicily, but it's a drab port city with very little to offer.
However, wherever you travel, you will enjoy it- the Italians are friendly, the food always excellent, it's usually sunny (although if it does rain it comes in substantial amounts) and there are culture and history everywhere.
Some general advice for Italy:
If you're on a budget: when buying anything- the closer to the main square, street or seafront you are in a town the more expensive it is. Sometimes you can literally walk 2 minutes and it be half the price. It's well worth getting off the main routes, and you may even stumble across something unexpectedly amazing.
Hotels: When booking a hotel, knock one star off the advertised star-rating and that will give you a more accurate view compared to US/UK standards.
