Where we are

Discover the wonders of the city on the Strait

In the city centre, between services and culture

A strategic location for experiencing Messina, moving freely and heading in any direction.
The GARIBALDI R&B is situated in the heart of Messina, just steps from the Cathedral, the railway station, the Central University and the port area – the departure point for cruise ships, hydrofoils and ferries to the Aeolian Islands, Reggio Calabria, Villa San Giovanni and Salerno.
The location is perfectly served by public transport and allows easy walking access (700 metres) to the Maritime Station. The coach terminal for Catania Airport and the main Sicilian cities is just a short distance away.
Only 2 km from the Boccetta motorway exit, the GARIBALDI R&B is also the ideal starting point for those wishing to visit Taormina, Milazzo or explore the Ionian coast.

The ideal starting point for magnificent excursions

An ideal base for exploring the eastern province and the splendid Taormina – one of the most famous tourist destinations in the world. A place of great charm and beauty, with its Greco-Roman theatre, medieval streets, the enchanting beaches of “Isola Bella” and Giardini Naxos, or to set out on unforgettable excursions to the Alcantara River Gorges and the craters of Mount Etna, the highest active volcano on the Eurasian plate.

An unforgettable journey through art, culture and nature

The western side is home to the sanctuary of the Black Madonna of Tindari and Milazzo with its medieval castle – a national and European Union heritage site – from which one can admire one of the most beautiful panoramas in the Region, the Antico Cathedral (1700 AD), the New Cathedral (1951 AD), the many historic monuments and the Museum of the Tonnara and the Sea.

Emotions that will take your breath away

Not to be missed by day: the splendid beaches and enchanted places such as the Venus Pool or the panorama of Capo Milazzo at sunset, followed in the evening by an aperitif in the “Old Town” (Borgo Antico), rich in charming medieval churches and nightlife venues.
