Hotel is very close to the Sicily ferry terminal

The hotel is only 2 minutes from the ferry terminal to Sicily. Also close to Reggio di Calabria Lido train station. The Reggio di Calabria Centrale station is a good walk further away. Hotel is very close to the famous Lungomare. Our room was great for a short stay overnight.
