They over charged city tax and still awaiting for a refund. They are ignoring my emails.

I would like to sincerely thank the wonderful staff at the hotel—Nino, Yassir, Maurizio, Antonio, Carmelo, Canneline, and Kusheu—for making our stay so enjoyable. Every one of them was friendly, professional, and attentive, providing exceptional service from the moment we arrived until we checked out. They truly made us feel welcome and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. The breakfast was outstanding every morning. There was an impressive selection of both continental and hot breakfast items, with something for everyone. The buffet included a wide variety of cold cuts, cheeses, fresh salads, eggs, bacon, sausages, Italian pastries and desserts, breads, fresh fruit, coffee, and much more. Everything was fresh, plentiful, and delicious. It was one of the highlights of our stay. The hotel's location is excellent and makes it easy to explore the surrounding area. Parking is provided through a third-party service and is included in the cost of the hotel, which was very convenient. The air conditioning worked well during our stay in July 2026, especially when it was left running continuously, which helped keep the room comfortable during the warm summer weather. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for outstanding service, an excellent breakfast, and a great location. We would not hesitate to stay here again.

Can’t fault this hotel. Very clean, staff were lovely and the pool are was wonderful. Our room wasn’t the most modern but bed was very comfortable and the room had everything we needed. Fruit at breakfast was very fresh and tasty. Short 5/10 min stroll into Taormina town. Perfect location and the bus terminal is just out the back of the hotel which is really handy. Close to the cable car to go down to Isola Bella too. We had a wonderful day and Pizzichella beach, with cheap sunbeds!

Lovely hotel , staff very helpful, great location , shuttle to the beach was brilliant and good value, breakfast was amazing. We just felt the hotel was a bit tired in places , but extremely clean . 9/10

Breakfast here is much better than other places! And the pool was fabulous!

The hotel was ok in general but quite old. The pool was nice but they close really early and is deep so nowhere to just chill. The food at the restaurant and breakfast was also pretty bad for the price...

The staff was amazing! We felt home for day 1. Special thanks to Carmelina, Lucia, Antonini, Antonio, Carmelo and last but not least Christian.

Amazing views and stay!

The breakfast was very good and very helpful staff. Was disappointed with how small our room was. And I had booked a balcony room and assumed it would overlook the sea to enjoy the evenings, but I did get a small balcony looking straight into the bank behind the hotel.
