Nice pool and great varied breakfast. Some of the hotel looks a bit tired but it is clean. ##### Katherine Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Terence 29 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Part of a fly drive around Sicily, this hotel has excellent facilities and entertainment. The village is a ten minute walk and not a flat walk but we managed it twice a day. ##### Terence Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Kathryn 17 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We really enjoyed our stay at this property. We had wished we were in the main building with some sort of balcony or view but our building was still maintained fairly well and we had a lot of space in our room! We really loved the area since it was very close to the cable car and to the historic city center. We also really loved the hotel for its views, terrace and views. It is important to note parking must be reserved ahead of time! And it is a short but hilly walk. There may also be a long walk to your room so that’s another note! The staff were all very friendly and helpful! ##### Kathryn Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shirley 27 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great location! Pool and close to everything! Would come back with no hesitation! Hotel was situated on a hill above the sea but with elevators it was totally assessible. Lovely pool, 2 min walk to the bus station that brings you to the train station for 1.1 euros! 4 minute walk to restaurants and 10 minute flat walk to Messina Gate which is where the beautiful streets with restaurants and shops are located. Just a perfect stay! ##### Shirley Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Graham 10 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent location for the bus station and a short walk to the town centre. Lovely pool area. Very clean. Sicilian night highly recommended. Buffet and food very good. Lots of steps around the hotel but the whole town is very hilly! Those with mobilty issues may struggle. Over-all, a very good hotel and enoyed our stay in beautiful Taormina 😍 ##### Graham Stayed 10 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephen 27 Jun 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Amazing views, polite staff .

The hotel room does has thin walls so you may hear your neighbours late at night. The hotel was a convenient distance from the main town which was nice. Great stay overall! ##### Alissa Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Xavier 28 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel had the perfect views of the city and coast. However, it can use updating. My room was clean but the door was pilling and the furniture had stains/evidence of leaks from years of usage. Service was great and location is convenient. ##### Xavier Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Siqun 22 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice hotel Comfortable hotel to stay with a nice ocean view.

Bed was AWFUL! No real greeting when arriving and no personality when checking out. Never was asked how our stay was or even a ‘Hope you stay again’ Would never recommend this hotel. The only thing good about it was the location to town and the view from our room ##### Donna Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jennifer 21 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good hotel. We had a great corner unit with spectacular view of the water and sunrise. The pool area was nice but I thought I would use the pool during my 4 day stay but never got a chance as the pool was cold and it didn't get much sun in the afternoon because it faces east. The hot tub was cold and the whole pool and hot tub area close at 6pm which was too bad because if the hot tub was actually hot it would be good to be there in late afternoon or in the evening. The hotel is not very modern and the rooms a little dated but in general I think it was a great hotel and about a 10 min walk to the main town. They have parking close by for 20 euro per day but it was not easy to find this hotel in the beginning. Google maps was taking us to a different spot and we had to find a small sign on the street saying to snap a pic of the QR code for the instructions on how to get there by car. When you park it is very confusing how to get to the main reception, you are just walking up these stairs, walking into the building through the pool area, take the elevator to the second floor which you exit in the patio area and walk across the patio to the entrance of the reception. Staff was friendly and they helped us get to the parking area which was in the property next door. Breakfast was big but there wasn't that much variety day to day. I would recommend to stay here but make sure to get a nice waterview room. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0e579bb8-2967-4950-9d6a-72255b7365a6-1761010751732.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3b39f05b-4230-4034-9717-8cfa0a53b41c-1761010751909.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/05e21aa3-831e-429e-8f0e-dec35007d6f8-1761010751698.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/588876f5-7515-4132-8ea7-da9a6470d1d6-1761010853870.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jennifer Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark 14 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I had a brilliant stay here, with a beautiful room on the fourth floor, that had a great view.

It isn’t modern but I’m glad it isn’t, for the price it’s excellent. cable car to the beach and it’s at the bus station with lots of options including tour buses, it’s quite an event going up & down the winding roads on them! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f82b3a70-5788-4bbb-bef4-803961db4d7a-1747734080137.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/686729f1-f278-4eb1-bc8b-8c140b85e462-1747734079849.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5d46af39-8bc5-4703-9faf-1b493a7e85c7-1747734126726.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/fa8e95c7-2575-4496-9ee3-c99264cda090-1747734125900.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Lindsey Stayed 7 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rosaria 24 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Amazing views from dining areas This is a reasonably priced resort style hotel with a lovely ambience.
