The location was within walking distance to the train station and sightseeing. The front desk staff was very helpful as we arrived before the room was ready. WE were able to leave our bags while we did some sightseeing and when we returned, our bags had been delivered to the room.

The staff was very friendly and helpful, they provided us with all the information to get the most of the city. The room was very comfortable and well equipped. Having breakfast served at the second floor with a beautiful view of the city is a plus. The property is in a great location at walking distance from the historic center of Messina.

The town is Ok for a day & night.
The town is Ok for a day & night. The cathedral at 12pm is the biggest thing in town and it is worth a look for the curious. Note all the bars around the square have a surcharge just to sit down - which they don't advertise. Try the Sri Lankan restaurants around town, delicious food at a great price.

we only stayed 3 nights, the area we stayed was very busy not far from ferry crossings. We visited Taormina and Cefalu, 2 nearby cities. Didn't get to see much of Messina itself. Did visit beach which was very nice.

Messina doesn't have a lot of attractions - the Camponile was interesting to see at midday, as well as the Norman cathedral, for which you could really see the Mudejar influence - something I found surprising for Italy.
OTOH, it also means there were fewer tourists about, which suited us to a tee.
If you are into hiking, it looks like the mountains above the city would have some nice trails with views out over both the Ionian and Tyrrhenian seas.

Messina was really just a jumping onto Sicily spot where I met up with friends coming from other locations. great for our trip to Lipari, otherwise I would not have stayed three days.
There were good restaurants and some not so good so always look at the menus first. and check open times, there is no such thing as a late lunch as they all close by about 2.30pm
Interesting history and buildings.
Just explore, you will find hidden treasures.
Big cruise ships stop here so the city can get very busy.

Visiting Etna was great.
Visiting Etna was great. It’s about 1.5 hrs away Nothing open on a Monday so walking around town was a bit of a waste. There really is not much to see. Taormina which is about 45 minutes away is the place to spend your time.
Stayed here as we arrived late from a ferry in Malta and we were worried we wouldn't catch the ferry to mainland. Good place to stay if you have a car - private spacious parking was available. Room okay, pet-friendly, breakfast decent-enough (not amazing but certainly had MUCH worse in Italy - at least you got some savoury items here). Overall good value for money and decent place for a stop-over before catching the ferry (a little bit of a drive still but manageable).
This is the nicest B&B in which we have stayed here in Sicily. It is modern (opened in 2022), comfortable, beautifully located overlooking the Straits of Messina from the spacious breakfast room and balcony, spotlessly clean and perfectly maintained. Eva (owner and designer) is welcoming, very helpful, and gracious.You cannot go wrong in selecting FuoriSquadra B&B!
Fabio is a Super Host! Welcoming and friendly, Fabio has a beautiful R&B in the heart of Messina. Convenient to historical sites, pastry shops and restaurants and yet a quiet retreat within. Comfortable beds, daily cleaning and beautiful private bathroom makes for a restful stay. The included breakfast was top notch and delicious!
High quality furnishings, luxurious sheets & bath sheet towels, very nice breakfast selection with very fresh coretti, fresh fruit, variety of juices, several kinds of coffee. It was within walking distance of major sights. Messina surprised us with the cleanliness of the city.
I was able to check in at night after ferry arrival.
The breakfast display was the best we've seen in Italy. So many items: pane, canolis, cereals, eggs, bacon, juices, fruits sliced, nuts, toast, granita, meats and cheeses, etc.
Location near train station.
The hotel is a short walk from the port of Messina and also the transfer to Catania airport. It is also in the centre of Messina so you can walk anywhere fairly easily. The rooms are a decent size and clean and all the the staff were friendly.
It was a great stay, clean and tidy room, and the location is central. I am really satisfied and my family is happy. The rooms were great and the food was as expected! I would advise everyone coming to Messina to stay at this place!!
Great place to stay while visiting Messina. Location was so close to everything and at the same time in quite area. Host was really friendly and helpful any time I needed something :).
Really recomended if you wanna visit Messina :)
Very spacious and well appointed property. The view of the Straits of Messina and the water traffic was breathtaking. The property was very clean and our host supplied us with the ingredients for a light breakfast.
Very new hotel with large rooms and high-quality furniture. Great option to stay while traveling in or out of Sicily, very close to ferry. There is no parking, but we still could park right in front of the hotel.
The appartment was excellent, it was a pleasure to spend a night there, would’ve loved to stay longer!
This is a great place to enjoy the views of Messina’s harbour.
Thank you Patrizia!
