This hotel is a gem and rght on the beach. The staff are wonderful, so helpful and charming. The view from the rooms are spectacular. The sunsets are magical. Ideal location too, very peaceful. The breakfast was great and it's only a short walk down the sea front to the restaurants and the town. I will definitely be going back to Hotel Tourist, perfect for our holiday.

Rooms were clean and spacious. Staff was very helpful and spoke good English. Breakfast was good. Decent amount of choice. Swimming pool was incredibly clean, clear and plenty long enough for lap swimming 25 - 30 meters long with lane lines. No need to use beach. Overall one of the best hotels we stayed at.

The hotel is very old and quite run down. The room felt dingy and the tiles in the bathroom on the floor were cracked in several places which could cut your feet. Breakfast had a good selection.

Good location, within walking distance to town, shopping, and restaurants. Lovely view of the water, and good breakfast. The pool was good with lots of sunny areas to relax. The room was just ok - it took almost all day for housekeeping to come refresh the room, and it wasn't in the cleanest condition.

Weekend getaway

Really good stay with this hotel, especially for the price! Nice pool, close to the beach, quiet. It is a walk to downtown cefalu but we enjoyed the walk plus it’s good for you! Breakfast is included which is a very nice perk. We would stay here again!
