10/10 Excellent

Amazing stay
Ashley, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

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

10/10 Excellent

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 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.
Thomas, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Giada was an amazing host and made our stay a delight!
Mitchell, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

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

6/10 Okay

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.
Lane, 3-night trip

Nice clean hotel great staff our room had a balcony with great views of Mt Etna and the bay of Taormina

The staff provided excellent service and assisted us with information about Taormina.
Linda, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

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.

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.

Timothy, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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

10/10 Excellent

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 Okay

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
Gunvor Svalstuen, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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

8/10 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.
Andrew, 3-night trip

8/10 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.
Carlton, 7-night trip

8/10 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

Great location , prepare to walk alot of stairs thru out Taromina.
Theresa, 3-night trip

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 Excellent

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!
