Treated very well by very nice owners and staff. (Family opporated) Very quaint, older gem of a place. A fair walk to centre due to all the stairs but there is a shuttle bus at the front door for those who don't need to excercise. Restaurant and service was very good. The view of the gulf and Mt. Etna was... More

The best part of this hotel is the view from the restaurant and the rooms. You need a car to stay here. The walk to town is easy down hill, but coming back it is not easy. Part of the charm is the unusual construction on the B&B perched on the hill. Rooms are small especially if you book for... More

The room furnishings are dated but clean and roomy (ours was a "superior double"). No in-room ammenities aside from a tiny TV (who cares?), a hair dryrer, soap, shampoo, towels, linens, pillows (xtra pillows and linens in the closet). A small balcony that provides a wonderful view overlooking Taoromina, the bay, and Etna. Free bus service takes you to the... More

The hotel is really run down, the food is bad and there is basically no service. I cannot recommend this hotel at all. More

The room was not very clean and the bed falling apart. The shower was so small you almost cannot enter and the shower handle was broken. The first evening there was no hot water at all. The breakfast was very poor and small- No glass was available in the room. Service was ok but nothing particular. More

Villa Greta is up several hundred steep steps from the town. We struggled from the bus station with heavy cases. Apparantly there are buses which pass by the entrance, but only 6 per day. Because of the difficult access it's not feasable to keep popping back to the hotel & this dictates daily activity - you try to keep ascents... More

The hotel is located on a steep incline high above the town of Taormina and benefits from delightful views over the bay & Etna. By being built into the hillside, it is on a variety of levels with the reception/dining/bar area on the lowest and rooms on two further levels above. The property is sandwiched between two winding hill roads... More
