charming sea view, close to the cable car to the center, but no fridge
Pros:

Beautiful sea view, good breakfast, close to the cable car to the center, possibility of swimming right next to the hotel

Cons:

The big mistake is the absence of a fridge! Although the staff in the restaurant willingly provided ice, it's a long way

Linda ciudad. Cara pero ya era sabido. Para un par de días está muy bien.
Pros:

La ubicación es la mejor para mi gusto. Se encuentra a metros del Funicular que te sube al pueblo en 3min de viaje. No tenés que esperar mucho porque vas encontra de la mayoría de la gente que se hospeda arriba. Metros de la playa

Cons:

No es claro con la reserva. El hotel está dividido en dos sectores. El primer es un edificio que está en la esquina que tiene ascensor. Para el otro, que se encuentra subiendo la cuesta, no hay ascensor y tenés que subir unas escaleras. No son graves pero al llegar no lo sabíamos. Las valijas las llevan en auto por suerte.

Bar Principe was the Spot
Pros:

Going by the sunshades & window signage this place had about 3 names? My receipt says Bar Principe but it's part of the Villa resort, so all good. We enquired earlier in the afternoon about booking for dinner, but the staff member said, don't worry, you will be fine. So, when we turned up no seats outside, the staff member ducked us & didn't come near me! So, we waited for about 40 minutes till a table became free. The meal was good, and our server Armando was a friendly chap. We ordered Risotto Mare & Cotoletta Palermo (chicken I think?) which we both enjoyed but it wasn't cheap, but it was a pleasant night out on the terrace.

Pros:

J'ai passé quatre nuits en octobre 2025 que j'ai grandement appréciées. J'avais un petite chambre propre et confortable (la douche étant très petite) avec une petite terrasse avec vue sur Castelmola. J'ai apprécié les petits-déjeuners buffets complets et excellents, ainsi que les repas du soir. L'Hôtel est très bien situé, à côté du téléphérique, à quelques pas de la plage d'Isola Bella et à quelques pas des escaliers qui montent au belvédère Via Pirandello et au coeur de Taormina (il faut cependant aimer la marche). Merci à toute l'équipe !

Pros:

Оптимальное расположение - 10 из 10! Отель расположен в двух шагах и от пляжа Isola Bella, и от подъемника в центр Таормины. Чисто, красиво, вкусные завтраки, есть терраса с потрясающим видом, рядом небольшой магазин, где можно купить воду и необходимые мелочи. Рядом остановка, откуда есть автобусы и до Таормины, и до станции Taormina Giardini, откуда поезда ходят в Мессину, Катанию и Сиракузы (станция кстати кинематографичная, здесь снимали Крестного отца 3). В ресторане отеля меню с хорошими ценами. Кстати, чтобы спуститься в отель из центра, можно идти пешком по живописной лестнице с потрясающими видами на море и залив, лучший путь, чем фуникулер, на мой взгляд. Лестница начинается от обзорной площадки, где видовой бар.

Cons:

WiFi - единственный минус, ловит хорошо лишь в лобби и ресторане, где завтраки.

Gjester til bry!
Pros:

Utrolig sur betjening, foruten kafén/restauranten og vaskedamen.
Personalet i spisesalen var frekk, sur og lite servicevennlig. Veldig lite utvalg av mat.

Amazing holiday
Pros:

I have just returned from a week's stay in the Villa Bianca hotel,while I understand some of the negative reviews I do not agree that it is a 'terrible' place to stay, yes it's is quite antiquated (so are the majority of hotels in this region)but it is clean and comfortable. The lift does not go right up to the rooms at the top of the hotel and there are some quirky steps to climb but the pay off for having one of these rooms is the stunning views and they are amazing.
Unfortunately the hotel has no pool but the sister hotel is only a short walk away(minutes) and you can use their lovely roof pool.
The continental breakfast was good with a good selection of cereal,cold meats ,fruit and pastries.
While we were there we found the staff friendly and accommodating.
All in all we had a lovely stay(all 7 of us) and I would recommend staying here.

Pros:

Sincèrement les seules bonnes choses sont :
-La vue au niveau du bâtiment à bord de la route en face de l'hôtel villa sant Andrea.
-Proche de la station bus et téléphérique.

Cons:

Vraiment, il faudra revoir le classement de cet hôtel, il n'est pas digne d'un quatre étoiles :
-Pas de wi-fi dans les chambres, le Wifi n'existe que dans le hall de la réception;
-Petit déjeuner qualité tres tres basique;
-Structure de l'hôtel ancienne;
-Un check out a 10h;
-la plupart du personnel sont des personne âgées, trop difficile de communiquer en anglais.
It doesn't worth the hype !!

Not good experience ,disappointed
Pros:

Hotel with old furniture, uncomfortable beds, dark room without balcony, very disturbing noise at night at 2 am and at 6 am from the kitchen. Boring breakfast with ready-made packaging, tomatoes and fruit salad chopped the day before, nothing interesting. Shame that there was no refrigerator in the room for water at least even in the summer season, shame that there was no wifi in the room. Disappointed, I do not recommend it.

Emplacement stratégique que je recommande vivement.
Pros:

L’emplacement est stratégique et central avec un accès direct au funiculaire.
Les chambres disposent de terrasses une exceptionnelle donnant sur mer.
Le personnel de réception est très serviable et aimable et en profite pour remercier Salvador pour sa collaboration et réactivité pour me changer de chambre malgré que l’hôtel soit complet.

Cons:

Le petit déjeuner pourrait être amélioré.
