Emplacement parfait pour explorer Taormine
Pros:

Bon emplacement mais difficile d’arriver en voiture. Un parking se situe à 300 mètres plus haut. Chambres petites mais confortables et très propres. De belles terrasses offrent une vue mer. Petit déjeuner copieux et varié.
Personnel très attentif.

Cons:

Le jus d’orange de la machine qui a un drôle de goût…

Nice hotel
Pros:

Nice hotel, very near the bus station. Nice room and breakfast was ok.

Cons:

Unfortunately not a good view from the simple rooms, but that could have been expected.
Breakfast was quickly emptied by other guests, staying in groups.

Pros:

Location was 10/10, couldn’t ask for a better spot. Was close enough to the town centre, bus stop, cable car etc. The sea view from the room was breathtaking.

Cons:

There was a sewerage smell from the bathroom, the bathroom sink filled quickly and didn’t drain properly, shower leaked onto the bathroom floor.

Pros:

Stunning view to Etna, the sea and coast line makes this hotel the best in Taormina. Lovely girl at the reception was so helpful and a very fine ambassador for this hotel. Nice and quiet area. Convenient location in walking distance to the bus station and sites to visit. A truly wonderful experience and I would love to come back.
