We enjoyed our 3 night stay at Hotel Continental. The location is perfect for walking to the main street. The room was clean and comfortable, although the bathroom was very small. We had a nice balcony with a great view. The rooftop terrace has a wonderful view. We enjoyed the breakfast there every morning. We also had dinner there one evening and Happy Hour cocktails a couple times. The staff is friendly and professional.

Everyone who I interacted with was very kind and friendly. They put up with my primitive Italian and then in English helped us book a dinner reservation. The room was clean and modern and lights for all times of the day. The hotel is up from the Corso Umberto, so the terrace looks over pretty much all of Taormina and the view is outstanding. My only tip is to pronounce it "Continen-TALL-e" when you tell the cab driver where you are going.

Staff was friendly - upgraded to corner balcony room upon arrival without even asking - excellent service- and could literally see Aetna from the outer deck and from the bed out the window. Parking was not a concern as there is parking out front and valet, both for a fee. Location provides view also from lovely rooftop bar and restaurant and is located next to a popular and famous local pizzeria/ restaurant. Easy walk to main area via « secret «  garden walkway.

Hotel Continental has wonderful views of Etna, the sea, and Taormina from the terrace and the dining room. It is also (relatively) easy to access in a car compared to many options in town, but also only a short walk to the Main Street. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

First, I would like to compliment Sabrina at the front desk, who helped us find our way to the hotel from Mount Etna as our GPS was sending us in circles, she was patient and helpful and just beyond friendly. The entire staff, we’re all beyond friendly and helpful. The rooms are nice, nothing over the top, but very clean and accommodating. The Terrace is what makes this whole entire hotel as you can sit out on the terrace and have dinner and cocktails and overlook the entire Mediterranean, Taormina and Mount Etna in the distance. We will return one day and stay here if the opportunity comes our way again
