Taormina Hoteller i nærheten av Palazzo Corvaja

the views having a film being made in the hotel during our stay. no thought about health and safety

the view, the swiming pool and the excellent breakfast italian staff never very dynamic

The staff were polite and the breakfast was pretty decent. The views from the hotel of Etna and the sea were stunning. This should not be a four star hotel. We paid extra for a 'suite' but arrived to find a small room with a large balcony with a glass ceiling (sun bathing in a green house) - very basic (no mini bar, sky sport TV etc..) The website states beach & pool facilities are at the "Paradise Beach Club in Letojanni at about 10 minutes distance from the hotel". This is a lie. The beach is about 25 minutes by car alone!! If you dont drive then you can get the free hotel minibus. We did this three times and each time it arrived about 20/30 minutes late to collect us. From leaving our room to getting to the hotel pool took about 1 hour!! Avoid this hotel.

very old bed. small bathroom

Location was undoubtedly the biggest asset of this hotel. Perched along a sea facing cliff the views are the best money can buy. Communication with some of the staff....Italian only no english.

The view Acess by foot or by car exteremly difficult

location, view, friendliness of staff, food beds are bad, linen is so-so, pillow not good

Beatiful location, one of the best breakfasts, beautiful views...a wonderful place. A bit expensive

The view is beautiful. Car parking available. Paper thin walls - could hear everything from adjacent rooms and corridor. Beds like concrete. Bathroom dated - flushing mechanism extremely loud. Claim to have bar which consists of some glasses on a table by the dining room - never saw it manned...

The view is great. It is close to funicular, although a bit far from town center. All the employees are very helpful. Parking place is great advantage if you have a car. The room furniture and bathroom needs to be renovated. The view of balcony is great, but needs some more stylish and comfortable furniture.

Having only the website to assist us in making our decision we were disappointed when we finally arrived at the hotel. What was surely a very impressive hotel at one stage we found to be rather dated and not as comfortable as we had been led to believe.

A comfortable hotel just outside the town with wonderful views out to sea but on the wrong side of the town to see Etna. Expensive in high season. Pool is over 180 steps downhill and only accessible to the very fit as the climb in high temperatures is strenuous. This information is not given in the details. It closes at 17.30. The restaurant was very lifeless.

Location, character and view from room Breakfast orange juice and having to carry cases up two flights of stairs

The hotel was reasonably placed for access to most parts of Taormina The distance one had to go to collect the car from the car park with which the hotel had an arrangement - over 10 minutes down a steep and busy road with little concession to pedestrians which, given the propensity for Italian drivers to use all of the road and any pavement area not separated by a curb made things somewhat dangerous!

We arrived at 9pm where the hotel staff were alert and welcoming. Hotel is beautiful and in a good location just off the main shopping street Corso Umberto I with its own private lime tree garden. Very clean and fresh room with modern fixtures and fittings. Breakfast was delightful with very nice croissants. Would recommend room with balcony. Walls were quite thin could hear people in the next room talking.

Staff were friendly and accommodating to requests. Location excellent in Taormina.

This hotel is recommended. The location is great and the garden is very nice. The breakfast could be improved. We ask for an advice regarding nearest beaches, and one of the staff recommended us on a specific beach and called for a pick up... we waited for 45 minutes for a van with which, finally, had no room for us. It was very dissapointing and the staff memebr didn't reach well to our compalin.
