Great location in Taormina. Away from the heavily touristy area, but a close walk away. Beautiful old hotel with incredible breakfasts and a staff that can't be beat. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there again. It's an old hotel so the room and shower were small.
We had a very enjoyable stay here and would highly recommend. Positioned close to everything Taormina has to offer, the staff were wonderfully helpful and friendly. The room was comfortable with superb air conditioning which was definitely needed during our extremely hot stay. The room was serviced daily to a high standard and the whole property was clean. Breakfast was served either outside on the beautiful terrace or inside in the anir-conditioned breakfast room. The options on offer were excellent.
The hotel offers a private parking space if you have a car with you which although expensive at €35 per 24hrs was convenient and saves you faffing around!
The hotel has a great location. Our room was decent size with a somewhat smaller bathroom, but overall nice. Expect classic, a bit outdated interiors - but all clean and fine.
Breakfast was very nice and staff very helpful.
My only comment is about safety - we could enter the reception area multiple times (where room keys are easily reachable) with nobody at the desk.
Overall, I can recommend the hotel and was happy there!
This hotel is beyond worth the stay! My husband and i stayed there for two nights and we fell in love with everything from the service to the people, they were just so hospitable and i can not say enough about the breakfast.. the best from all our stays in Sicily. We stayed in the suite and the room is was beautiful and the terrace view was beyond.. we loved it!! They do not have parking for cars included, but they do have two parkings in front of the hotel and with an extra charge and if your lucky to find it available its yours.. we were lucky and for 30.00 a day we parked our car literally in front of the hotel across the street. Thank you for making our 34th anniversary one to never forget.
Charming hotel with lovely views, friendly staff, very clean and comfortable. Great location, very nice breakfast and happy hour on the terrace.
Would definitely recommend to all!
Fantastic location, everything walkable. Beautiful ‘boutique’ style B&B, super clean rooms with great views, staff very accommodating and excellent continental breakfast including cooked eggs. Would highly recommend for a little oasis in the hubbub of Taormina.
This hotel is centrally located to historic sites in Taormina. We received wonderful recommendations from the hotel staff for parking, hikes, and beaches. Breakfast was terrific as well.
Everything about this property is five stars, the staff and service the breakfast the cleanliness, the rooms and the views. The only criticism I have is that the parking is a bit expensive and it’s offsite.
This is a charming hotel with a great view of the sea and a fabulous garden breakfast/lounge area! The breakfast was outstanding ! The hotel receptionist gave us an excellent suggestion for dinner. The only disadvantage of the property is the stairs and difficulty finding the entrance.
