This was a lovely property in a great location. The only thing we did not care for was the loud music coming from the restaurant next door late at night.
Rita, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent location close to all the action, great for solo travellers. As other reviews mentioned the sounds of the night life do make it up to the water facing rooms but quiets down after 11pm. Staff were helpful. Breakfast was simple but great.
Megan, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very convenient location. I would highly recommend a taxi to / from the train station or airport. But once checked in, you can walk to everything! The hotel is old and the A/C wasn’t working very well. There was a HORRIFIC noise from the plumbing that would drive you crazy if you were there for any extended period. But we spent very little time in the hotel & honestly loved this stay. It was so convenient & had all the basics.

Nice
The hotel was nice. Nice room and great view. But the music from the live music from la scala is so loud it is difficult to sleep. Unfortunately

Right in the centre of Taormina, excellent location. Staff very friendly. Building is a little dated, but still worth the money. Also worth paying a little more to have a balcony with sea view and stunning views of Etna.
Elizabeth, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location once we found the hotel. Lots of dining areas in walking distance. Great view from rooftop bar. The only minor drawback was no power point in the bathroom and only one mirror in the bathroom. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the staff were very accommodating.
Steven, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved it! Thank you for a great stay
I really enjoyed my stay and thought it was great value! Location is impeccable and literally 70m from the central square of Taormina. Staff was super polite and helpful whenever I needed help Overall very clean throughout with a stunning rooftop bar on top of the hotel. Rooms are a bit “vintage” but that gives it a better vibe anyway.
Kristian, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Property was nice but a little dated. Staff was nice and breakfast was good. We booked this hotel over one we liked better because it listed air conditioning but it was not working, they said they don’t turn it on until June. Extremely loud music from the bar both nights until around midnight made it difficult to sleep.
Robert, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel has good bones and in its day must have been rather grand. Today it is a well-located three star solution though tired. Central air, off for the season, left us struggling to be comfortable.
James, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I thought this was a great place to stay in Taormina with such wonderful views of the sea and the town. I wish the air conditioning was not broken though. It was a bit too warm. Breakfast was great. :-)
Naomi, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Average. It was advertised close to Corso Umberto. It was about 100 stairs to the Corso. The street in front is too narrow for car service to pull up to. We had to drag bags up and down to top of street where car could pick us up. Beds were uncomfortable. We asked for a refrigerator for in room. Got one the 2nd day there. We had to go to a grocery store and get ice to keep meds cool. No restaurant on-site for evening meals.
Judith, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel was very nice. Great location. Excellent breakfast. Excellent cleaning. Reception staff very pleasant, only issue was our English to Italian was not the best. Side view room was very small, once sea front room became available we changed and room was beautiful. Overall very good hotel and would come back again.

Location and parking was not easy to find. Air condition was scheduled to turn off at 1:30 am. Great views and bar.
Joseph, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This place is a real gem - but unassuming at the same time. Its an Art hotel and the artwork didn't always suit my tastes but everything else was amazing....great price, buffet breakfast included, really polite/helpful staff and a cool roof top bar with amazing views over the whole town. And the best thing, their secret backdoor exit lead right down into the centre of town! Perfect!
Gregory, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location There was a guy playing music at a bar below. I just knew that I was getting asleep before 12:15 when he stopped playing. That is the draw back from having a room with a balcony
Bart, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Hotel have a perfect location in the centre of Taormina, a stunning view from the terrace. Reception, breakfast staff and the chambermaids all give you fantastic service. The room was big and also the bathroom, and we had a terrace (#202). Breakfast is fresh and been filled up the whole time , and as I wrote very good service. We can highly recommend this hotel. If we coming back to Taormina we will definitely stay here. Our stay was for 9 night. There are many good restaurants nearby. Taormina is a very beautiful little town. 💚🤍❤️
Claes, 9-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I really enjoyed my stay here. It’s above the Main Street of Taormina and about a 15 minute walk from the bus station (uphill!) The hotel has a lovely reception with 24 hour staff. The decor is perhaps a little outdated but I found it charming and more importantly, it was well maintained and clean. I loved the wardrobe in my room. Bed was comfortable and the room is air conditioned so perfect in the summer heat. The shower was excellent. The hairdryer was the standard “tube” style common pre 2000 so bring your own if that matters to you. My balcony was so cute, looking out towards the sea. It was overlooked but I didn’t mind that. The electrical outlets in rooms are awkwardly with light switches, so if you use an adapter it keeps turning the lights on. A very minor and non problematic gripe. The staff were so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great, a selection of breads and cakes, plus cold cuts, yoghurt, cereals and juices. I would definitely stay again!
