Alle Erwartungen wurden erfüllt, kann man nur empfehlen.
Pros:

Kleines schlichtes Hotel in guter Lage direkt am Busterminal. Der Fußweg ins Zentrum beträgt ca. 10 Minuten, zur Seilbahn ca. 5 Minuten. Wir hatten ein Zimmer mit Meerblick, dadurch haben wir auch vom Busbahnhof nichts metbekommen. Das Frühstück war für italienische Verhältnisse gut. Das Personal immer ansprechbar und hilfsbereit. Für Ausflüge wurden wir gut beraten, Teilweise wurde auch die Buchung durchgeführt.

Great location between the beach and Main Street in Taormina
Pros:

Excellent location across the street from the bus station and a short walk from the tram that can take you to the beach. Also only a quick walk to the main streets of Taormina. Staff was very friendly and we had a beautiful view of the ocean from our room.

Cons:

Beds could have been more comfortable, but overall a great stay

Lugar perfecto para descubrir Taormina
Pros:

Nuestra estancia en Villa Astoria fue excelente. Queremos destacar especialmente la amabilidad de todo el personal, que nos hizo sentir muy bien atendidos en todo momento.

El desayuno fue uno de los mejores momentos de la estancia, tanto por su calidad como por las impresionantes vistas, un auténtico lujo para comenzar el día.

La habitación era amplia, cómoda y muy limpia. Además, el hotel dispone de parking (de pago), algo muy práctico si se viaja en coche por Taormina.

Sin duda, un alojamiento totalmente recomendable al que volveríamos encantados.

Pros:

The location was amazing, we could easily walk wherever we wanted. It's also across the buss terminal so very easy to reach to airport. The room view was amazing, we loved it.

Cons:

AC did bot work properly. It was just like a normal fan not AC! So the it was not pleasant in july!
The breakfast was awful!! We barely could eat anything, everything was stale! Breads were hard as stone! We found ants in oatmeals! Disgusting! Do not add breakfast to your stay!

Pros:

Loved our stay at the Villa Astoria. The location couldn't be better. Close to city center, steps and funivia to beach, but quiet and calm. The service was wonderful and friendly. Would stay here again!

Hier war nicht nur Goethe glücklich
Pros:

Am Rand von Taormina direkt neben dem Busbahnhof gelegen (wichtig für diverse Ausfllüge in die Umgebung) genossen wir wunderbare Sonnenaufgänge über dem Meer. Taormina selbst erreicht man zu Fuß, das Städtchen ist natürlich zauberhaft – nicht nur Goehte war hier glücklich, doch unfassbar überlaufen und trouristisch. Sogar die Straßencafes sind in den Händen von Dolce & Cabana u.ä. Das Hotelpersonal gab uns den besten Restaurant-Tipp, ganz in der Nähe gelegen: Bei Da Nino gab es unfassbar leckere Trüffelspiegeleier und Spaghetti Vongole. Ein Muss ist das Teatro Greco m it spektakulärem Blick Richtung Ätna.

Pros:

La ubicación es perfecta. Enfrente a la estación de bus para llegar e ir a las playas. cerca del centro para ir caminando. El dormitorio da hacia atrás eso lo hace silencioso y la vista es divina. Personal muy atento.

Cons:

El desayuno es malísimo!

Perfect location, incredible staff, value for money
Pros:

Incredible staff that made us feel very welcome, exceptional sea views from the deluxe room.

The location was perfect - about 250m walk to the cable cars (you can take down to the beach) or 700m walk to the town with all restaurants and stores.

We didn’t take the breakfast so have no comments about it.

We will recommend this hotel to everyone going to Sicily.
