The Best Mid-Range Hotels

  • Palazzo Excelsior (Palermo; tel. 091-7909; www.excelsiorpalermo.it): With its faded 19th-century nostalgia, this is a very appealing choice lying on the most prestigious street of Palermo, but in an isolated spot. Much of the interior is appealingly dowdy. It's not for everyone, but it attracts those discerning guests who like staying in a living museum.
  • Hotel Grotta Azzurra (Ustica; tel. 091-8449048; www.framon-hotels.com): This remote island off the northern coast of Sicily is home to a lush, resort-style Mediterranean retreat, set on a wide plateau above the ocean. The prices are most affordable.
  • Villa Fabbiano (Taormina; tel. 0942-626058; www.villafabbiano.com): Romantically positioned in a hilltop village, this affordable hotel is a little gem. You're in a beautiful setting amid good furnishings, but you'll pay only a fraction of the price charged by nearby competitors such as the deluxe Grand Hotel Timeo.
  • Villa Favorita (Marsala; tel. 0923-989-100): On the home turf of the most famous wine-producing town in Sicily, this elegant 19th-century retreat has been restored and turned into a government-rated four-star hotel, yet its tariffs remain moderate. It's part of the cultural heritage of Marsala.
  • Hotel Moderno (Erice; tel. 0923-869300; www.hotelmodernoerice.it): In spite of its dull and misleading name, this is quite a good hotel in Sicily's most enchanting medieval town. Rooms are located in an attractively decorated main building or in a newer annex. All units have hints of 19th-century styling and open onto private balconies or terraces with views in all directions.
