Bien
Pros:

Le petit déjeuner est exceptionnel, avec beaucoup de choses fraiches et du choix, l'emplacement a quelques minutes du centre est super, le personnel de l’accueil est très chaleureux et serviable, le serbice de voiturier est bien pratique (malgré le prix qui semble toujours trop cher 20€/j) et la vue est superbe.

Cons:

Nous avons eu malheureusement la chambre 161 qui est bien trop petite et vraiment très vieille.. le sèche cheveux ne sèche pas grand chose haha, et les murs sont très fins, on entends beaucoup les voisins/bruits de chasse d’eau ou douche, portes qui claquent/bruits extérieurs etc..

Pros:

La ubicación del hotel es fantástica.

Cons:

La habitación no es demasiado cómoda (muy pequeña), pero está limpia. El parking no es tal y es un poco caro, aunque hay que admitir que va en consonancia con el resto de la ciudad.

Harika
Pros:

Merkeze 2 dk yürüme mesafesinde odamız tertemizdi. Çalışanlar çok çok güleryüzlüydü. Etna manzarasına sahiplik yapıyordu. Her şey çok güzeldi.

The highlight of our Sicily Trip.
Pros:

There’s so many things I liked. The staff from the moment we pulled up made my group feel welcome. The facilities were wonderful and the breakfast was superb. Location in Taormina is so important and the Hotel is a very short walk from the major thoroughfare that links you up to all the essential attractions. To cap it off was the rooftop patio/bar with great views and a wonderful place to finish off your day.

Cons:

Parking in Taormina is almost nonexistent and the same goes for the Hotel Continental, but they have a Valet Service that immediately takes your car and secures it safely. Plan on a 25E charge. Well worth it.
