The views were amazing from this hotel, pretty much from all areas. They have a large wonderful breakfast buffet with hot and cold food, great coffee and all you can drink mimosas. The bus stop is less than a half block across the street with restaurants all the way up and around top of hill. Lots of fun shops too!’

It would make a world of difference if the rooms were painted. But it is unquestionably a beautiful old school hotel and grounds. I loved once I got past my expectations of what a hotel is supposed to look like.

Beautiful panoramic views of Taormina from the balconies and terraces. About 10 minutes walk up hill into the city proper. The front desk can call you a taxi and they arrive fast. Breakfast is simple but in a lovely setting overlooking the sea. No lunch or dinner service. Rooms are on the small side with again lovely views, but cramped showers and dated furnishings.

Great location with amazing views. The parts of the hotel that have recently been refurbished look great. Some areas seem a little tired, but you can tell that they are refurbishing throughout. The pool area is beautiful but bear in mind that there are a lot of steps to get down to it.

No dinner available. 185 steps from swimming pool up to hotel. Lovely area at pool but too far away. Beds narrow and not very comfortable. Great location. Near bus station.

This hotel on its day would have been magnificent (in the fifties!) the view is what this hotel is super fantastic and that’s it! Bathroom was terribly small the shower was The worse I have ever experienced! Seriously need upgrading NEVER SHOULD THIS HOTEL BE 4stars except for the amazing view No plugs except for your bed side! So you’re in the dark if you want to charge your phone. One more thing that people need to know! 255 steps to the pool !! And then obviously the same amount back up to get to the lift.😳

The hotel is in an amazing location, with great views from the pool area over Isola Bella and from the rooms (if you are lucky enough to have unrestricted windows).
Amenities are rather basic, we stayed for two nights and on both occasions the breakfast ran out (we did notice some other guests that arrived later, like 9ish, complaining to the staff) so definitely arrive nice and early for breakfast!
The rooms most definitely need some redecoration to bring them to the modern era. The breakfast and house keeping staff were extremely friendly, polite and attentive wherever possible.

Beautiful view and enjoyed the pool. The hotel

Tired looking needs modernised
The hotel has two redeeming features location is one near to town, bus and cable car, and the newly renovated terrace and pool. But it’s not a four star hotel in other areas the rooms are dated and need updating our shower door kept falling off and soaking the floor and to clean yourself properly you had to keep turning shower off as cubicle too small, tiles cracked and grout dirty. Breakfast was ok if you wanted to eat cakes and pastries, the hot section which consisted of hard scrambled eggs and undercooked bacon was not appetising. The staff were mainly very pleasant but higher management ignorant. So no more than 3 stars at that

Great location, across the street from the bus station and a block from the furnaculor that takes you down to the beach. Hotel was very quiet, large rooms and wonderful view from the balcony in the room.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel, it was sad to leave. The view from the sea view rooms is stunning. The hotel itself has old school Italian charm so expect the rooms to be dated but very clean. The only flaw I had was my shower head fixture was broken. The recently refurbished pool is modern and spacious, I never had an issue getting a sunbed. The staff were so helpful and friendly, I hope to be back someday soon!
