Stayed for 2 nights in late October and so not overly crowded, but still had excellent weather. Our room (25) was on the second floor and had a small balcony and view of the garden. Breakfast was wonderful on a terrace overlooking the water. The staff was attentive and pleasant. We did have to pay extra for parking, but the convenience was worth it. The location was perfect for exploring all of the town. There are many fine restaurants - would recommend Vicolo Stretto

We stayed here in late November, just before the hotel closed for the winter. We wondered if the staff might be winding down ready for their break but that was certainly not the case. The staff throughout the hotel were very helpful and attentive.
Our room was at the front of the hotel and we woke each morning to fabulous views out to sea and across the pretty town gardens to the greek theatre. Our room was a good size but it lacked storage space for clothes but had many thin book shelves which were too small to keep clothes on. The decor was a bit tired and the room and bathroom could definately do with updating.
The breakfast is wonderful and should keep the hungriest of travellers satisfied for much of the day.
Don't miss a wander round the beautiful garden behind the hotel it is packed full of lots of interesting plants.
The location of the hotel is excellent and just a few steps (there are steps everywhere in Taormina!) from the Umberto Corsa, the main tourist route through the town. But don't miss exploring all the fascinating side paths around the town you come across some beautiful spots.

Super Location, better than I thought it would be based on maps etc. Stayed with two children. Staff super friendly and helpful. Rooms nice and comfortable. Priced very well. We had a room with a sea view that was spectacular! Breakfast served on a terrace overlooking the sea as well. We had a rental car which they parked in a garage for us. Really a good choice.

Having booked and paid for A SUPERIOR DOUBLE ROOM and having viewed and reviewed the photos on the site I am still not convinced that we were allocated the room we paid for and should have had . Since this was only a short break before moving on to the Una Palace in catania we decided to put up with it and make the most of it . So , putting the above aside I would say that the location of the hotel is very good , so long as one is prepared to face the not so well illuminated and frequented steps !! up to the centre . The breakfast was relatively OK , though limited and the staff were nice and friendly in their own way . A bit pricey overall.
