“Great location”

Stayed here for 5nights,very good breakfasts,good clean rooms all with views of water and coastline from own balcony. Super pool with excellent attendant,hotel staff spoke English and were helpful with requests. Slight niggles were rather thin Walls between rooms! Not good for two nights with a man who coughed continually! Also thin hedge separating balconies so not entirely private. Hotel decor was a bit sparse and modern, would benefit from some pictures on Walls but all in all we were very satisfied. Located very close to shops and restaurants but hotel was down a rather steep drive, not ideal if you have a baby buggy or not too nimble, on plus side meant hotel nice and quiet with no traffic. Had glass lift which was a novelty too.

Area recommendations
Public gardens above hotel. Lovely peaceful and wonderful views. Amphitheatre. Lovely views and well preserved. Castelmola.views of etna. Restaurant naumachier by roman wall. Sit outside in the garden, lovely at night and good modern Sicilian food.

“Beautiful view and superb location”

Had a lovely time - staff were friendly and helpful. Only downside is the steep footpath leading to the hotel. I would not recommend this hotel for anyone with walking difficulties. But this was more than compensated for by the wonderful view from the balcony.

Area recommendations
Taormina is really small, and just about everywhere was within walkling distance of the hotel, although it is a clifftop location, with lots of steep paths and steps. The Greek Theatre and the public gardens just outside the Monte Tauro hotel are lovely places to while away some time in the sun.
Getting there
Taxi from the airport (Catania) was fairly expensive but worth every penny.

“Great place, steep walk out!”

Friendly and helpful staff. Good pool and pool area. Great views from room and great food. The hotel worked out it was my birthday from my passport and we were left a bottle of fizz in our room - very nice touch. It's a steep walk out of the hotel, but worth the trouble (and a good way to get fit!)

“Clean Modern Hotel”

The hotel was in a nice quiet neighborhood, balconies overlooking the water. It was very close to the main street (Corso), restaurants, gelato, Greek Theater, (next door to the) gardens. 15 minute walk to the bus terminal. To reach the hotel, you have to walk down a ramp/stairs that is fine going down, going up may be an issue if you are not used to climbing stairs. I am not used to climbing stairs and was 5 months pregnant. I got used to it after a day or two. It is a good warm-up since you walk everywhere in Taormina. We were there 6/27 to 7/2, 2010. The front desk offered beach excursions that included transportation, beach chairs, and umbrella for 10 euro pp. We went to the Paradise Beach Club. Do not go, it is not worth it. There is a pool there, but the one at Monte Tauro is nicer (and more convenient) There was no sand, it was all rocks (extremely hot and sharp, you cannot walk barefoot). The rocks in the water were slippery, so you need water shoes. It is better to take the cable car down to the beach by Isola Bella. Same issues with the rocks, you need water shoes, but it is a much nicer beach atmosphere than PBC. We rented 2 chairs and an umbrella for 15 euro. Don't forget beach towels. We asked the beach attendant and he brought us a couple towels from the hotel and we tipped him 3 euro. Taormina was such a nice town. We were there 5 nights and just wandered the small streets and found new places to eat, walked the main street each night.

“Well Situated”

The hotel Monte Tauro is in an excellent position close to plenty of restaurants and bars, every room has a sea view. The swimming pool was always clean and we were always able to get a sunbed at any time of the day. Breakfast was plentiful with a wide choice, we ate dinner in the restaurant on one occasion, the service and food were good.I would thoroughly recommend this hotel.

Traveller's tip
I would not recommend this hotel or resort for families with young children due to the steps and steep hills.

“Hotel Monte Tauro - Taormina”

Panorama meraviglioso e Posizione Fantastica a due passi dal centro e nello stesso tempo si gode di una tranquillità estrema. Tutto il personale gentilissimo e disponibile per qualsiasi esigenza! Non ho mai trovato in nessun altro hotel la stessa disponibilità e cortesia e soprattutto non mancava mai il sorriso! Tornerei irmmediatamente e lo consiglierò ad amici.

“Hotel bietet Blick auf Ätna und Meer”

das hotel liegt gut zentral in taormina, das hotel und entsprechend die zimmer nicht etwas altmodisch aber sauber und funktional, der dominierende graue beton lässt das hotel nicht zum schmuckstück werden. der pool (mit blick auf das meer) und das frühstücksbuffett sind sehr gut. während des aufenthaltes waren die gäste sehr international gemischt (viele gäste aus USA). Das Personal am Empfang war unfreundlich und arrogant.

“Super hôtel.”

Parfait à tous les niveaux. Pas un seul reproche à faire. Nous avions une suite junior, pour 3 personnes et c'était idéal. Nous y avons séjourné 3 nuits au mois d'août. C'est le meilleur hôtel de Sicile que nous ayons fait. Attention tout de même aux personnes à mobilité réduite car l'hôtel se trouve en bas d'une petite côte mais d'une inclinaison très forte (bien plus forte que la pire rue de San Francisco). Nous avions hésité entre un hôtel dans le centre ville de Taormina et un au bord de la mer. Notre choix pour le Monte Tauro dans le centre ville est sans regrêt, quand nous avons voulu aller à la plage nous y sommes allés très simplement avec le finuculaire (très pratique).

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.
