Beautiful hotel just a short walk away from the beautiful busy streets of Taormina. Hotel is located in a great area surrounded by restaurants, bars, shopping and plenty of areas to see some amazing sites. Our room was decent, just wish the shower head would work, but other than that staff were extremely helpful and listen very well. Would definitely come back and stay here.

Lovely hotel with a fantastic view. The room was clean and comfortable with a good ac. The rooftop bar/restaurant is fantastic with good food and drinks and amazing service. Thanks to our friend Aziz from the restaurant.
The hotel offers a service with transportation to the beach with sun loungers and an umbrella for €19 per person. Very well worth it.
Unfortunately breakfast is not included when booking via hotels.com, which we didn’t think was clear when booking. Breakfast can be paid separately at the hotel for €18 per person. We instead went out to nearby cafes for breakfast, which was lovely.
