“Good”

The staff is efficient, speak English, helpful. The views of coast are fantastic. Location is not walking ditance from train but that wasn't a problem for me as I used a taxi. Archeological sites abundant, including a surprise small Roman amphitheater only a few blocks from the hotel.

Area recommendations
If you are an archaeolical buff, there are numerous Greek and Roman sites nearby. But the view is worth the journey if you are not
When to go
Tourist rates go up April 1. Save money and take somewhat warmer clothing in March.

“Great Location and Value”

We stayed here in the height of tourist season - and were very pleased with the location - easy to access town center and the beach. We walked up the mountain from this location - looked down at the ampitheater and the beautiful, beautiful sea - very easy to get around from the hotel. We arrived and left on the train - and getting a taxi was very easy and necessary as the hotel is up on the mountain. The staff were very helpful and the breakfast is in a beautiful setting - again overlooking the town and sea.

“Good basic hotel in great location”

We stayed here for 2 nights recently with our small baby, and we were pretty happy with the location and the hotel overall. As another reviewer stated, it isn't fancy, but it is so convenient and it's clean... I'd recommend this hotel to anyone who isn't looking for luxurious or 4 star standard rooms.

“Hotel splendid - great location”

This hotel is very close to the centre of everything in Taormina. I thought it ticked all the boxes really. It's not fancy but it is clean, very well located and the staff were very friendly. we had a really nice balcony with a great view of the ocean which was a free upgrade. i'd recommend this hotel because of location and value. it might be a little basic in some ways but ticks all the important boxes for me.

Area recommendations
Old city - lovely place to stay - beach is down by cable car which closes in evening time so if you stay down there it costs about 15 euro in taxi to get back down
Dining
excellent restuarants and loads of them
Outdoors or beach
i really like the beaches but they are stone not sand - which doesn't bother me - lovely swimming and grottos around

“Good Value for Money”

The hotel is only about 3 minutes from the city centre. Although it is unpretentious, it has all the necessary comforts. Our room was cleaned every day and it had a balcony with a magnificent sea-view facing the rising sun. Breakfast was adequate while the staff were always extremely nice and helpful. English was spoken by the receptionist. We were very satisfied at this hotel and compared to other hotels in the same area the rates we paid were good value for money.

Traveller's tip
I would recommend l"Anfora" restaurant situated at the top of steps street at the beginning of Corso Umberto. Nerino, the chef and Delfio, the waiter,made every effort to give us their best service, including a free glass of sparkling wine and a free liqueur at the end. The atmosphere was very romantic and the food superb. Deinitely worth a visit.

“Bon hotel”

Personnel agreable, tres serviable. Bien localise, proche des sites touristiques et acces aise a la mer par telepherique. Les chambres sont mal insonorisees et on entend les autres locataires discuter dans le couloir une bonne partie de la nuit.

“Schnuckeliges Hotel”

Die Rezeptionisten waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit (sprachen gutes Englisch), das Zimmer spartanisch, aber voll ausreichend, Klimaanlage war vorhanden, jedoch nur gegen Aufpreis, was uns vorher nicht bekannt war. Bei Fragen und Beanstandungen wurde umgehend reagiert und geholfen. Der Pool war nett und sauber (Personal dort auch super-nett) Frühstück: reichlich und für die Kategorie wirklich ok, nur das Frühstücks-Personal war irgendwie immer schlecht gelaunt, hatte man den Eindruck. Aber Essen war in Ordnung. Wenn man also nichts gegen Löcher und Risse in Handtüchern und Bettwäsche hat (die aber sauber waren!) ist das Hotel wirklich zu empfehlen, das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt.

Area recommendations
Man kann rund um Taormina viele Ausflüge buchen, es ist mehr als genug Auswahl da (z.B. Etna oder die Liparischen Inseln, beides sehr zu empfehlen) Die Stadt selbst ist ganz putzig, ertrinkt leider in den Sommermonaten im Touristemstrom.
Getting there
Die Anreise mit einem Etna-Reisebus vom Flughafen Catania (Bushaltestelle ist direkt gegenüber vom Terminal) dauert 1,5 Stunden und kostet ca 7 Euro (Stand August 2010) und fährt auch noch stündlich!!!

“Hotel Splendid, zeer goede ligging bij het centrum van Taormina”

We verbleven eind juli in Hotel Splendid. Ondanks de drukte vanwege het hoogseizoen, konden we altijd een ligbed krijgen bij het zwembad. Hierbij bevindt zich een gezellige bar met heerlijke lunchkaart en zeer aardig personeel. Het hotel ademt een karakteristieke sfeer uit, maar heeft nette moderne kamers met kabel tv, ventilators en schone badkamers. Wij hadden een kamer met zeezicht, zonder balkon, maar wel voorzien van openslaande deuren, waardoor een balkon niet werd mist. De kamer wordt iedere dag keurig schoongemaakt en van nieuwe handdoeken voorzien. Het personeel, van receptie tot schoonmaaksters, is erg aardig en behulpzaam. Bij de receptie kun je je opgeven voor excursies, vooral de excursie naar de Eolische Eilanden 'Lipari' en 'Vulcano' is aan te raden. De ligging van het hotel is een zeer groot pluspunt: binnen 3 minuten lopen sta je midden in het mooie centrum van Toarmina, met een groot aanbod in gezellige en goed betaalbare restaurants. Het is overigens aan te raden om een auto te huren als je veel van de omgeving wilt zien, anders ben je aangewezen op het openbaar vervoer, wat goed betaalbaar is, maar meer tijd kost. Er gaan regelmatig bussen vanaf Catania Airport, maar de laatste bus naar Taormina gaat al rond kwart voor 8 's avonds, waardoor wij aangewezen waren op een taxi die ons 100 euro kostte, terwijl een buskaartje slechts 6.50 euro bedraagt.... Al met al hebben wij een topvakantie gehad, Hotel Splendid en Taormina zijn een echte aanrader!

Area recommendations
De Corso Umberto, zeer gezellige winkelstraat, tevens hoofdstraat van Taormina. In de, voornamelijk trapsgewijze, zijstraten van de Corso Umberto vind je de leukste restaurantjes.
Must see
Het Griekse Theater in Taormina is zeer de moeite waard om te bezoeken. Vooral rond zonsondergang prachtig! Daarnaast het strand van Taormina met het eilandje Isola Bella voor de kust, te bereiken met de kabelbaan. Buiten Taormina zijn de Eolische Eilanden een aanrader, maar natuurlijk ook de Etna mag niet gemist worden.

Area:

Taormina, Italy: A balcony setting on Mount Tauro with a sweeping view of Sicily’s coastline and Mount Etna gives Taormina its lasting appeal. It is Sicily’s only truly international resort, much-favoured by celebrities. The old quarter’s steep, narrow alleys are filled with window boxes and painted pottery, and best explored on foot. Main sights are the classical remains and Renaissance palaces. The Greco-Roman theatre is still used for concerts and festivals.
