No parking available on site, long uphill walk dragging luggage was not fun, small shower with curtain I don’t care for, inconsistent hot water and no A/C was available during our stay in May, decent breakfast, old furnishings could use updating
Peirson, 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

4/10 Fair

The air condition unit in my room was very old and did not work. Alberto kindly moved me to another room for 1 night but he could not do it for more because there was no free room. Thus I had to open the large windows for the nights and sleep without cover. That did not solve the problem because of extreme humidity due to the rain.
Laszlo, 4-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

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

4/10 Fair

The Hotel itself was okay very clean and staff were very friendly. However are room was not so good. It would have been okay for 1 or 2 nights but it was terrible for a week. Room 307 is dingy noisy and has the smallest shower in the world. The curtain didnt go fully around or to the floor so every shower the whole bathroom was flooded. Because if noise we asked to be moved but that was a NO too busy. Didnt bother to complain about bathroom because of this, but it really isnt a good room. Dont let this put you off staying here but if offered the dungeon with smallest shower in the world, tell them a definite no no. Unless your happy to clean floor everyday and have the curtain stick to your bum.

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is in a fabulous location, just minutes from the pretty streets filled with shops and restaurants. We booked a sea view room which didn’t disappoint as we could also see Mt.Etna and the Greek theatre, a beautiful view that you could never tire off. The room was very clean and the beds comfortable, lots of storage and plenty of toiletries snd towels provided. The room included a mini fridge but could be improved by having tea & coffee making facilities also. Breakfast was nice, with a lot of choice perfect if you have a sweet tooth. The decor around the hotel is dated but overall we were very happy with our two night stay.

Very nice hotel, but the rooftop was closed and there was very loud music outside the room every night until midnight. Otherwise it’s a great hotel.
Jeffrey, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

We enjoyed the location, the breakfast and the building itself. Especially the balconies that overlook the main shopping street. However, of the 3 rooms our group reserved, the levels of comfort differed significantly. Some of us had air conditioning while others rooms felt warm all night, despite the air being on. Some of us had comfortable, soft beds, others had hard and uncomfortable beds. Some showers were very small and others fine. Like most small hotels in Italy, it really was a gamble on which you would get. The staff however was very kind and did try to help with the room temperature. The terrace bar was under construction but the lobby bar was a great amenity to have with a pleasant bartender.

Hermosa Taormina

desayuno excelente. Habitacion grande comoda lo unico que no hay refrigerador como en todos los hoteles que he viajado y la caja fuerte te la cobran aparte lo que encarece demasiado la estadia si desearia usarla. tambien cobran por usar el refrigerador si uno lo quisiera en la habitacion.No hay un lugar para apoyar la valija.La mesa de la habitacion es extremenademente pequeña .

This is a lovely hotel right off the Main Street in Taormina. I got a room with a little balcony which was worth it. The terrace was unfortunately closed and not sure why or for how long. Breakfast was good. Would stay again.
Sara, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Posizione strategica, in pieno centro, vicino alle attrattive di Taormina, ma lontano dal caos. Camera con vista mare, terrazzino con sdraie, pulito. Colazione continentale perfetta. Personale gentilissimo. Consigliato. Unico appunto: terrei un po' bassa l'aria condizionata. Comunque tornerei sicuramente

Malgorzata, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

The Hotel was at the centre of a lot of restaurant s& Shops. The atmosphere was very lively and entertaining. Staff at reception were welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was very nice and hotel was clean. The decor of the Reception area and other common areas was beautiful. Room was a bit small and it was disappointing that the Terrace area was closed for repair as the view from up there would have been amazing.

Grazyna, 2-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.
