Great Hotel!!!! Would love to go back!!!!
This hotel was in a perfect location....If you are a first time driver in Italy, be prepared for a long trip up....We rented a car, but after we got up there, we left it there. It is curvy road up. The best part of the hotel is the location, as it has great views of Mt Etna and is away from downtown. Taormina is about 15 Euro trip down with a taxi or you can take the bus which was 5 Euros round trip. The Staff was excellent, I have to point out Adrianna, as our luggage was lost, but she kept calling the airline to get the luggage back for us. It made us feel more comfortable.
Traveller's tip on shopping
The shops close after lunch and reopen at 4 pm.

Definitely Would like to go back
Excellent in all aspects apart from breakfast a little bland and bar/pool service a bit slow. Reception and all other service first class

Lovely hotel in a beautiful Sicilian village
The hotel is very pretty and well situated in Castelmola, the next village up from Taormina (a much busier resort). Castelmola is very quaint and peaceful, with a small selection of good resturants and bars. We booked a garden cottage within the grounds of the hotel which had wonderful views over Sicily and was well equipped with everything that we needed. The advantage to the cottages were that they were off the beaten track and were very, very peaceful and quiet. The only disadvantage would be the walk up to the hotel and the village which I would not recommend for the elderly or infirm. The pool area is very attractive and never felt crowded even during Mid August when we stayed there.
Traveller's tip on dining
Visit Al Padrino Restaurant close to the hotel. We dined there three times during our weeks stay and were made very welcome. The food is fantastic.
