We had a great stay at the Medousa Suites!
The room was super clean, had everything we needed and the breakfast was perfect for what we wanted each morning. Loris was a pleasure to deal with and he helped enormously with anything we needed.
We would definitely stay there again if we go back to Taormina!

What a wonderful place to stay. The staff were all lovely and Loris was especially helpful. Message in advance for instructions if you are driving - it’s simple enough but you need the instructions of where to bring your car. Paying for the hotel to take the car and park it was a great choice. Our suite was lovely and being so well located by the gates to the old town was just perfect

A magical place. Truly a highlight in our trip.
From the friendly and helpful staff to the mesmerizing garden setting this could not disappoint. We had a wonderful stay and will return ourselves as well as recommend to others (3 nights in March 2020)

Una meravigliosa sorpresa; camere spaziose e pulitissime; personale fantastico; posizione incantevole. Durante il nostro soggiorno è stato tutto perfetto. Ottima anche la colazione e l’aperitivo. Dovrebbero esserci più strutture simili in giro per il mondo!

Cute property, right in the middle of taormina, pretty close to bars, restaurants and every attraction the city is known for. I didn't care for the room ( you can smell cigarettes from outside, from the restaurant patio and the shower is located in the middle of the room, soaking up floors). Loris the manager?was absolutely fantastic.

We have been lucky enough to stay in many fabulous hotels. I would certainly recommend the Medousa to my friends & family.
Superb position to explore this beautiful town.
The staff/friends went the extra mile to make sure our stay was perfect.
Nothing was too much trouble for them and Loris our contact made sure we had all the information we needed and also his personal cell phone for any questions once he had left the hotel.
The rooms are modern, clean and fresh and all set in this amazing historic building built into the city wall.
The bistro dinner we had at the hotel was delicious and the ambience perfect.
We will most certainly revisit Medusa in the future if we are able to come back to Taormina.
