United States7 Reviews“Decent place in heart of town.”Staff are nice, but lack charm. It all felt very transactional.
Centrally located hotel with beautiful patio for sundowners overlooking Etna.

United Kingdom9 Reviews1 helpful vote“Great location for a city visit to Taormina”Hot water failed on our last morning. Breakfast was no more than OK. Our balcony was very close to another room's, so lacked any sort of privacy.
Fantastic views from a great location in the town. The 5th floor roof terrace was a wonderful place to read a book or share a beer.

United States2 ReviewsWonderfulTransportation from parking Porta Catania to hotel with luggage. We are old (67 and 70) and walked. We would have taken a cab if we knew better. If we come again or recommend to others, get a cab from parking to hotel. We did take a cab after checkout and it was fine. There was no problem walking to garage without bags.
View was excellent. Breakfast was ok.

The photos of this place don't do it justice, the views are amazing over the sea and up to Etna. The room is spacious f nothing special but the breakfast room and bar are lovely.

The location was great and the views from the bar and the terraces were fantastic. The hotel is decorated beautifully and all areas are spacious. The breakfast was very good with plenty of choice. Air-conditioning worked well. Our room was large and well furnished with a comfortable bed.

Hotel was bright and clean. Staff were polite with very good English. Views of the town, the bay, and Mt Etna were exceptional. The Art and decor within the hotel was beautiful.
