We are travelling to Sicily in early November and are needing to get to Castiglione di Sicilia via train or bus - can anyone advise if this is possible? The only railway line I can seem to find is the "Cirumetnea" but it seems a little unclear whether it stops there or not. Also is it better to purchase the tickets there - and if so where from? We are also staying in Taormina if it is easier to get to Castiglione from there. Thanks and help would be greatly appreciated...

Hi Please could someone assist me. I'm trying to find the best spot to book a Hotel for 1 day and night in Catania. We're a family of 2 adults and 2 kids under 8 years of age and we're wanting a really comfortable, good, 3/4/5 star Hotel situated close to the Airport as we have an early flight out the next morning i.e. Monday 13 July. We arrive from Panarea on 12 July midday and obviously want to fit in some small sightseeing. Where is the best place to stay? I've looked at the Grand Baia Verde Hotel on the cliff - that looks good, but is it not out of the way? So, there I thought the Liberty was the place and now I see it's in a bad area? Do any of the Hotels accommodate families with 2 double rooms and an interleading suite i.e. 2 bedroom family suite? Most of them have come back with wanting to put us all in one room with a foldout sofa for the kids- what's with that? I need to book something asap today, so please post a reply as soon as possible. Ciao - much appreciated! P.S. I've come across a lot of posts about Airport shuttles not being available and the rip off of taxi fares. Is there anything I'm missing?
