We booked a sea view room which didn’t disappoint as we could also see Mt.Etna and the Greek theatre, a beautiful view that you could never tire off. The room was very clean and the beds comfortable, lots of storage and plenty of toiletries snd towels provided. The room included a mini fridge but could be improved by having tea & coffee making facilities also. Breakfast was nice, with a lot of choice perfect if you have a sweet tooth. The decor around the hotel is dated but overall we were very happy with our two night stay. ##### Hayley Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sara 5 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities This is a lovely hotel right off the Main Street in Taormina.

It’s very central located. Walkable to any attraction and in the middle of shops and restaurants. The only negative really was they have a beautiful terrace they could use for breakfast and they keep it closed. If I didn’t have a room with view( which I paid an extra €40 per day ) the only place to have a view was at the last floor from the bar. Which was only open in the evening. Staff was very professional and accommodating with all our needs. Parking was also very convenient. ##### Angela Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Thomas 15 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities The Hotel was at the centre of a lot of restaurant s& Shops. The atmosphere was very lively and entertaining. Staff at reception were welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was very nice and hotel was clean. The decor of the Reception area and other common areas was beautiful. Room was a bit small and it was disappointing that the Terrace area was closed for repair as the view from up there would have been amazing. ##### Thomas Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### YUVITKZA 4 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Jewel in Taormina Great place very central to everything greet price excellent breakfast… had a great time I highly recommend it great view from terrace … super fruendly stuff ![Great view ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/DF79AB9E9906B57CCBDC7A56E5918678E5F6DB261728039952303.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Relaxing in my patio ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A31BDC5FCF3C17DEEE8697440AD6FE3A1AF73F071728039952618.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![View from terrace ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/B0E6BCC1A1BB63405477FB437D06E019EDAD65511728039952663.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Hallway ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3246A5A65062F3DBCEBB16296B57663BC00D08871728039952038.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### YUVITKZA Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Linda 26 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff provided excellent service and assisted us with information about Taormina. ##### Linda Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Timothy 12 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great view ##### Timothy Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth 3 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Right in the centre of Taormina, excellent location. Staff very friendly. Building is a little dated, but still worth the money. Also worth paying a little more to have a balcony with sea view and stunning views of Etna. ##### Elizabeth Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Rita 25 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This was a lovely property in a great location. The only thing we did not care for was the loud music coming from the restaurant next door late at night. ##### Rita Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Steven 9 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location once we found the hotel. Lots of dining areas in walking distance. Great view from rooftop bar. The only minor drawback was no power point in the bathroom and only one mirror in the bathroom. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the staff were very accommodating. ##### Steven Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Megan 7 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Excellent location close to all the action, great for solo travellers. As other reviews mentioned the sounds of the night life do make it up to the water facing rooms but quiets down after 11pm. Staff were helpful. Breakfast was simple but great. ##### Megan Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristian 23 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Loved it! Thank you for a great stay I really enjoyed my stay and thought it was great value! Location is impeccable and literally 70m from the central square of Taormina. Staff was super polite and helpful whenever I needed help Overall very clean throughout with a stunning rooftop bar on top of the hotel. Rooms are a bit “vintage” but that gives it a better vibe anyway. ##### Kristian Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Peirson 25 May 2025 No parking available on site, long uphill walk dragging luggage was not fun, small shower with curtain I don’t care for, inconsistent hot water and no A/C was available during our stay in May, decent breakfast, old furnishings could use updating ##### Peirson Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Gunvor Svalstuen 4 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Nice The hotel was nice.

Its an Art hotel and the artwork didn't always suit my tastes but everything else was amazing....great price, buffet breakfast included, really polite/helpful staff and a cool roof top bar with amazing views over the whole town. And the best thing, their secret backdoor exit lead right down into the centre of town! Perfect! ##### Gregory Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Lane 16 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities We enjoyed the location, the breakfast and the building itself. Especially the balconies that overlook the main shopping street. However, of the 3 rooms our group reserved, the levels of comfort differed significantly. Some of us had air conditioning while others rooms felt warm all night, despite the air being on. Some of us had comfortable, soft beds, others had hard and uncomfortable beds. Some showers were very small and others fine. Like most small hotels in Italy, it really was a gamble on which you would get. The staff however was very kind and did try to help with the room temperature. The terrace bar was under construction but the lobby bar was a great amenity to have with a pleasant bartender. ##### Lane Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Robert 17 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Property was nice but a little dated. Staff was nice and breakfast was good. We booked this hotel over one we liked better because it listed air conditioning but it was not working, they said they don’t turn it on until June. Extremely loud music from the bar both nights until around midnight made it difficult to sleep. ##### Robert Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Andrew 12 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Very convenient location. I would highly recommend a taxi to / from the train station or airport. But once checked in, you can walk to everything! The hotel is old and the A/C wasn’t working very well. There was a HORRIFIC noise from the plumbing that would drive you crazy if you were there for any extended period. But we spent very little time in the hotel & honestly loved this stay. It was so convenient & had all the basics. ##### Andrew Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Hotels with Indoor Pools in London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hotels-With-Indoor-Pools.0-0-d178279-tHotelswithIndoorPools.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Palazzo del Gattopardo Prince of Lampedusa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palermo-Hotels-Palazzo-Del-Gattopardo-Prince-Of-Lampedusa.h37006476.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Braunstone Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Braunstone-Town-Hotels.d553248635974904733.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Hotels near Theatre Royal Bath](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Theatre-Royal-Bath-Hotels.0-l6079309-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [La Serenissima Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palermo-Hotels-La-Serenissima-Hotel.h38267384.Hotel-Information) > - [Villa San Lorenzo ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palermo-Hotels-Villa-San-Lorenzo-Room-Suite-Restaurant.h25812884.Hotel-Information) > - [Grand Hotel Ortigia Siracusa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Syracuse-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Ortigia-Siracusa.h1329454.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Comoros](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Comoros.d39.Hotel-Destinations) > - [Atlantis Bay - The Leading Hotel of the World](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taormina-Hotels-Atlantis-Bay-VRetreats.h985060.Hotel-Information) > - [Dimora Botteghelle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Trapani-Hotels-Vrbo-Property.h40000778.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Villa Bianca](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taormina-Hotels-Hotel-Villa-Bianca.h1277578.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Villa Esperia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palermo-Hotels-Hotel-Villa-Esperia.h1467750.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Milos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Milos-Hotels.d2349.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Villa Sant'Andrea, A Belmond Hotel, Taormina Mare](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taormina-Hotels-Villa-SantAndrea.h889626.Hotel-Information) > - [Room of Andrea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Trapani-Hotels-Room-Mate-Andrea-Palazzo-Platamone.h35313325.Hotel-Information) > - [Domus Sicily - Il Giardino di Michela - Heated Pool](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palermo-Hotels-Domus-Sicily-Il-Giardino-Di-Michela-Heated-Pool.h35501042.Hotel-Information) > - [Mazzarò Sea Palace - The Leading Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taormina-Hotels-Mazzaro-Sea-Palace-VRetreats.h983846.Hotel-Information) > - [Maniace Boutique Hotel Ortigia UNA Esperienze](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Syracuse-Hotels-Maniace-Boutique-Hotel-Ortigia.h109087329.Hotel-Information) > - [ Palazzo Artemide - VRetreats, SLH Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Syracuse-Hotels-Palazzo-Artemide-VRetreats.h974007.Hotel-Information) > - [Domìa Boutique Hotel e Cucina ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palermo-Hotels-Domia-Boutique-Hotel-E-Cucina.h99434641.Hotel-Information) > - [El Olivar Palace Marrakech ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marrakech-Hotels-ELOLIVAR-PALACE-MARRAKECH.h82862013.Hotel-Information) ### Cars > - [Car hire in Gosport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Gosport.d6025718.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Packages > - [Peyto Lake](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Peyto-Lake-Alberta.d6072223.Attraction) > - [Brazil Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brazil.d23.Holidays-City-Breaks) > - [Australia Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Australia.d10.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General ---
