Positive: Located at 1,910 meters above sea level, this mountain lodge can be more than just a pit stop. There are different types of rooms where one can stay and we choose the one with a private bathroom and a terrace. It was very comfortable, cozy and clean. We even had all the amenities by which I was honestly surprise. After our evening arrival we enjoyed locally produced wine and dinner and then we could soak up the views of Catania being lighten up below us. The next morning started by waking up to incredibly beautiful sunrise. We enjoyed our breakfast, fueled up the energy before kicking off this hike. Whether you decide to stay overnight here or come in the morning, your trip to MOUNT ETNA starts here at ETNA SOUTH. From Rifugio Sapienza, we took the cable car that whisks you up to 2,500 meters. Itโ€™s like entering another world โ€“ the lush greenery gives way to vast fields of black lava rock.
Summary: Rifugio Sapienza is a perfect base camp for exploring Mount Etna.

Positive: Great location in the middle of where most Mt Etna things occur. On the assumption that this was once a genuine Rifugio, one shouldnโ€™t expect any luxuries. But it was perfectly acceptable in terms of room, bed, bathroom etc. Surprisingly excellent restaurant with good choices on the menu. Friendly helpful staff.
Summary: Mt Etna!

Positive: The location is great and close to the Etna funivia and shops. The restaurant at the hotel was also very good.
Negative: The room is old and is in need of a refurbishment. The bed mattress was old and very uncomfortable. Broken toilet seat and heating was off. The breakfast was also very cheap.
