"Great rooms, great service specially from front desk staff, Angelique and Ambra…I think the best view hotel in all of Taormina and the drinks are just great…all in all a memorable trip!"
"The Excelsior Palace is outstanding. Beautiful hotel in the heart of Taormina with a huge pool overlooking the Sea. Rooms are updated and very comfortable, many facing the beautiful Mount Etna. Delicious breakfast buffet with accommodating staff. Bar/cafe at the pool is perfect for a cocktail and salad or piadina while floating in the pool. I’ve stayed here three times and cannot wait to return!"

"Perfect location for everything, very comfortable hotel with lovely staff and fantastic breakfast. Gorgeous large room and nice balcony. The roof terrace has a great view of Etna. It was quiet on a Wednesday evening but imagine with the DJ would be great at weekends. Loved the 80s and 90s tunes! Feels quite luxurious but not snooty like some of the other hotels in this town. Would definitely come back"
"Wonderful stay. Staff very friendly especially the breakfast host he remembered our coffee orders as soon as he saw us each morning. The beach club is wonderful and the valet parking super easy. Wonderful place in beautiful Taormina "
"This past visit July 2025 will mark our third consecutive summer stay at this gem of a hotel. We continue to enjoy the spacious accommodations and friendly staff. Like a sightly faded beauty, this 50 something year old hotel certainly can use an update , and we have been advised that is in progress. However you cannot beat the spaciousness and slightly faded grandeur of this beautiful property. The hotel is situated on what I believe to be one the ‘most’ gorgeous and picturesque of the entire Taormina area. The private grotto beach and pool areas are spectacular as is the view of Mount Etna from the buffet breakfast terrace. "
"Amazing views and really friendly staff who couldn’t do enough for you. The facilities are a little dated in places but didn’t detract from the stay. Highly recommend "

"The most important from this property is the staff. Mr. Mario was always on top of everything, he is very professional on his duty. Super educated person and very kindly with my kids. His son was super friendly when we arrived late night too and super generous to help with the bags. The last on recepción very kind too and helpful to find me a spot to park calling from her cellphone. The staff for breakfast Ms Sylvia very kind and professional on her job, super friendly and attentive. Mateo also aware of everything. Very pleasant our stay here feels like home. 🏠 "
