Nice place for a couple of days.

Comfortable hotel close to the seafront. Across the street from restos and the beach club. Easy to get to Taormina Stn by train but a pain to get to the town by bus.

Hervorragend

Tolles Hotel direkt bei Taomina. Sehr gut ausgestattet und ein sehr freundlicher Empfang. Liegt nur durch eine schmale Straße getrennt vom Hoteleigenem Strand. Liegestühle sind frei. Badetücher 2,5€. Wir haben zu Mittag im angeschlossenen Restaurant am Meer erst zu Mittag gegessen und weil es so hervorragend war sind wir zum Abendessen wieder hin. Einfach herrlich an der See. Die Zimmer sind groß sind sehr gut eingerichtet. Service und Bedienung ist erstklassig. Besonderen Dank an Tina!! Viel zu schön um nur einen Tag dort zu verbringen.

The property is ok if you were paying a reasonable price but the cost was outrageous and they nickel and dime you for everything. There was a limit to how much water they provided, the bar was false advertised as all day, the property was dirty and there were ants everywhere. They followed us to our room and repeatedly told us no outside food or beverages were allowed in the hotel rooms which is kind of reasonable due to the ants but at the same time kind of crazy seeing as we paid 250 a night when the luxury hotels 1k away were the same price.

Not as described !

Agree with previous reviews - this property is not as good as it looks or sounds. The photos are from beach clubs across the road and the hotel is definitely not 4 star. The safe is not safe, the lift does not go to the room door, and there is no parking other than street parking - which was a critical part of our criteria to stay. Luckily we had only booked one night so we moved up the road to a new hotel.

Perfect location to explore the Taormina area. Tina was absolutely wonderful. She was there to help me with every question I had. Just a wonderful stay! The hotel was clean, breakfast was perfect with a great variety, the atmosphere was charming and the beach club across the street was perfect. I enjoyed sipping my cocktails in the afternoon and having a beautiful sea view for dinner.

Deceiving Pictures & Terrible Beds

Hotel shouldn’t be listed as 4 stars and I don’t know how the reviews were so high. It is over-priced (but maybe all of Taormina?) and then you are charged extra for a beach chair AND even a pool towel! the pictures are deceiving… half of them are taken across the road, making this not in fact, beach front property. the pool area is very small and closed in, not like the pictures. But the worst part were the beds. HARD AS ROCKS. Nice staff a 20 minute drive to downtown.

Terrible experience

Unfortunately we had very bad experience in the hotel. We were supposed to be in a room with partial see view. We were put in a room with window towards the road which was extremely noisy. The room was warm so we had to either open the window or turn on the air conditioning. In both scenarios it was impossible to sleep due to the bad noise coming from the street or the air conditioning. The elevator could not be used at all as you get the feeling that you will get stuck in it due to its extreme slowness. The room was also extremely basic and below the 4 star hotel standards. Hence we were supposed to stay 4 nights but due to the bad noise we had difficulties sleeping and we checked out 2 days earlier and we expected that we will be reimbursed for the last 2 nights as the booking was prepaid in advance but the hotel refused to give us back the money. I would rate the experience in this hotel one of the worst I have ever had in a hotel and in addition I think the hotel is highly overpriced. I do not recommend it.

Nydelig lite hotell ved kysten av Sicilia

Vi hadde en fantastisk uke på dette hotellet, på et rom med sjøutsikt. Rett ved stranden. Det var helt nydelig, fint rom, grei plass til en familie på tre. Flott beach Club og nydelig mat. Personalet var supre, og hjalp oss med alt vi ønsket og mer. Kommer absolutt til å dra tilbake neste gang hi besøker vakre Sicilia!
