We have stayed in many hotels that describe themselves as "boutique", but have staff, food & services which are no different from any other large 5-star hotel. El Jebel, however, is truly boutique, with staff & services focussed entirely on the guests' wishes & needs. The attention to detail in the architecture and interior design is spectacular. The owners have... More

We arrived into El Jebel late at night and were welcomed by friendly and helpful front desk staff and this is where I'd like to start my review. Front desks (Receptions) really do cause me headaches at most hotels: Unfriendly staff, unhelpful staff and staff with generic answers who can't be bothered to provide a service. The staff at El...

The El Jebel is a truly lovely hotel. The suites are spacious, beautifully and individually furnished and the bathrooms (something of a fetish of mine) are divine. However the best part of the experience is the staff - they are all helpful, friendly (and in some cases very amusing!). The restaurant and bar are comfortable and the food very, very... More

El Jebel rightly deserves its rating on Tripadvisor - it is very stylish and ideally positioned (literally) just off Corso Umberto. The staff are extremely friendly and very helpful - nothing was too much for them and everything was dealt with perfectly and quickly. We even had some Italian lessons from Evelyn over the excellent breakfast. This is a small... More

My two mums (mum and future mum in law) and I enjoyed a spectacular food tasting mid May 2013 in preparation for our wedding at the El Jebel in May 2014. The food was just stunning; presented not only amazingly but the taste was exquisite. All the dishes were beautiful and you can tell the chef really takes great pride... More

Excellent hotel in Taormina and a very good value for money! It contains 10rooms only, very easy to find location in the middle of the touristic center but the only thing is that the view from the rooms is blocked but from the rooftop is excellent. The staff are very welcoming and helpful. The rooms are very clean, newly renovated,... More

We had problems and they were fabulous in helping. Room was a Jr Suite and it was large and the bathroom was great with two sinks and a tub over 6 feet long. Biggest TV in a room I have ever seen.
