Good pool, beautiful view, excellent breakfast
Stine Büchner, 6-night trip

8/10 Good

Beds are so comfortable.
Shirley, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Hotel is within 10 minutes walk to the centre of Taormina, and a 2 minute walk from the bus terminal, with a direct service to & from Catania Airport from the termina. Once in the town, there is an abundance of shops, bars and options to dine out.
Nathan, 7-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The pool is really nice addition, breakfast buffet was outstanding. I didn’t really love the fact that I had to walk a little distance to get to my room, having said that I had a lovely little terrace out front, which was nice.
Andrea, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

The property was beautiful and the restaurant on site was great for convenient meals. We were traveling with a 2 year old and found the elevators quite cumbersome because you had to take multiple elevators to get to different areas. Also, didn’t love that there was no shallow end in the pool, only a small ledge around the pool.
Elissa, 6-night trip

Alessandro Is the best bar tender in Italy, hands down. Great location.
anthony, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

Super beautiful view from the hotel and very nice staff. The hotel room does has thin walls so you may hear your neighbours late at night. The hotel was a convenient distance from the main town which was nice. Great stay overall!
Alissa, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

The hotel had the perfect views of the city and coast. However, it can use updating. My room was clean but the door was pilling and the furniture had stains/evidence of leaks from years of usage. Service was great and location is convenient.
Xavier, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

The hotel is in a very good location but driving there or renting a car is not a good idea. No where to park, even if you park at hotel's parking paying 20 Euro a day still getting in and out of the area is terrible. By the time we arrived at the hotel and found the hotel entrance it took us 2 hours and very stressful. Hotel is in a very nice location and there is a nearby bus/coach stop if you need excursion. Staff is good but the hotel definitely needs updating. doors, bathroom parts are falling apart. There is too much noise, the noise from the bar/restaurant entertainment being the main contributor. There is no sound insulation so you will hear everything inside next door room and outside. Breakfast was good.

I had a brilliant stay here, with a beautiful room on the fourth floor, that had a great view. The hotel is a great location just next to the bus station, cable car and a short uphill walk to the town which is handy when it’s hot outside. Great location!
