We unexpectedly found ourselves in Sicily and though it would be nice to revisit Taormina. We stayed here in 2003 and were interested to see in it had changed. The welcome was lovely, we were only staying for 1 night but didn't feel that that was a problem. We asked for a room with a bath and sea view and... More

I love Italy. I love Sicily. I love Taormina. This hotel is a good hotel in an amazing place. It has a lovely relaxing quiet atmosphere. Breakfast is standard European fare, we didn't eat there in the evening...why would you when in Taormina where there are so many beautiful restaurants and cafes. This is an Italian 4 star hotel, so... More

This hotel was very nice. We stayed one night in transit to Italy mainland. Found it quite by accident, and would like to make it a destination. We got quite a few deals. Room on back side looking over parking lot (we knew it) and free parking. Plus the check in agent was humorous. We asked "Do you speak English?"... More

We stayy here in October 2011. Our room whilst small for a 4 star hotel was well appointed with a superb view up the Sicilian coast. The hotel service was excellent. The buffet breakfast had lots of choice and the food was very good. The gardens are extensive. A great pool with a bar and snack service but be aware... More

The positives - about a ten minute walk into the centre of Taormina so you can benefit from the quiet of the outskirts but have a nice stroll after dinner. The position overlooking the bay and sea is excellent. The room was clean. Unfortunately is the end of the positives! This hotel is very dated and is in real need... More

Negative points- The walls of the rooms are so thin that you can hear people next door breathing,using the toilet.. Rooms also very old style, in badly need of refurbishment. Swimminpool closes at 5.30, just when you want to use it more after coming from the beach, lots of steps to get to it too. Positive-Amazing view of Taormina from... More

Checked in last minute just by driving by. Were quoted €200 for the night. Found out the next day on booking.com that they were charging €300 for 3 nights!! Staff were really rude and completely unhelpful. I asked about an iron or ironing service and just got no and no again. No explanation. Came back again and asked a different... More

Majority of clientelle were around our age group, who during the day require some sort of refreshment, after morning breakfast the hotel was dead. you were unable to get any refreshments unless you went down to the pool. Which on a really hot day was not really enjoyable. It would have been nice to have been able have a coffee... More
