Great staff, shops and restaurants nearby. Close to the beach and some steep stairs or cable car to get up to the old city of Taormina.

Pros:

Although the stay was overall ok/good, the hotel is somewhat dated for the area and the price we paid.
Our room faced the road, which offered spectacular views; unfortunately, it also included all the sounds and noises from speeding motorcycles, cars, and garbage trucks late at night and early in the morning.
The bathroom we had was very small, and the shower was tiny, even by European standards.
No Parking at this location, I had to make a deal at a local parking lot for an extra $40 Euro a night.
Approx. 10-minute walk to the Funivia (Cable Car) that takes you to Taormina was a plus.

Pros:

Hotel is nice, with a great, deserted pool and wonderful breakfast buffet. Restaurant next door is very good. Staff was friendly and helpful. On the downside, the bed was very hard, there is no parking, and walking to the cable car to get up to Taormina or to get to the public beach is on a fairly busy road. There is a bus to Taormina directly in front of the hotel.

Pros:

The beauty of the location and the staff were both fantastic during my stay and I couldn’t have asked for better. A short stroll from the beach it makes for a perfect hotel for a relaxing beautiful holiday away from the hustle of the town centre which is a short bus journey away and only 1.5 euros each way. The staff were all super nice and friendly and helpful. The breakfast was also fantastic and the views are just stunning. All in all I would highly recommend!!

Incredible location and ammenities for Taormina
Pros:

This was a pretty anazing experience for me.
A decent three star hotel that hsppens to be a ten monute walk from the stunning Isola Bella. I was able to access the beach morning noon and night.
The spacious washroom, beautiful balcony, perfect airconditioning and sumptuosly filling buffet breskfest (which can be be consumed indoors or on a terrace overlooking Isola Bella).were all incredible bonuses.
Can't think of any negatives that wouldn't be a problem no matter where you stayed in Taormina.(train station is too far away etc) Obviously, this hotel is best suited to people prioritizong the beach over the town,, but why on earth would you stay in the town!
