We spent a week at the San Pietro and had essentially very pleasant experiences: the staff, in particular at the front-desk, went out of its way to satisfy us and our indecisiveness regarding which room to pick. Breakfast overlooking the Sea is a unique experience in the warm October morning sun and the choice and quality of foods is also... More

We spent a week here at the end of October. The hotel was spotless, comfortable & staff very pleasant but it just lacked a sense of warmth. Admittedly we were there at almost the end of the main season, so perhaps it was lacking the usual hustle & bustle. The room was pleasantly furnished & had a nice view over... More

We stayed at San Pietro at the end of October with a family. We had booked a junior suite which was spacious, nicely decorated, with a lovely bathroom and a balcony overlooking the sea. The breakfast was sumptuous and personnel warm and welcoming. At the end of the season the pool could be kept warmer (maybe it's not heated, I... More

A wonderful, luxurious hotel where the staff are friendly and helpful. A beautiful setting just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of Taormina. Breakfast and lunch were excellent but dinner was a little disappointing. Food and drinks at the hotel are expensive. A highlight of the holiday was a private excursion to Mount Etna with BDM Sicily, which... More

Just returned from a weekend break. Rooms very spacious and clean. Location not quite right, around 20 minute walk up to the main corso. Hotel provides shuttle service. Make sure you wear trousers to have a drink in the bar - no shorts allowed (in the heat??). Bar closes before midnight - poor service for a 5 star hotel. More

If you want the best of both worlds this is a great location. If you want access by a short walk or shuttle to the city or shuttle to the sister properties beach this is the right hotel. The staff is very helpful and eager to accommodate More

We did this trip this time last year. The weather this time was ten out of ten from dawn to dusk. Non stop sun. Our comments are that it is a beautiful relaxing place to stay. Views to die for and a great pool. Rooms where, as now, pleasent, cool, spacious with a fab view from the balcony. Waking up... More

I really enjoyed our stay at the Grand Hotel San Pietro. The rooms were well appointed and very clean with wonderful Frette linens. The grounds were beautiful with great views from every vantage point. Lunch in the garden was a highpoint. The breakfasts were very nice, with all sorts of selections of fresh juices and delicious baked goods as well... More

I can't say enough about this hotel, thereby no words can express the good old fashion hospitality, professionalism and expertise of this hotel and its' staff. Vera is the most professional front desk person you will ever come across and housekeeping is top notch with not a speck of dirt and/or anything out of place. Before I could get off... More

This hotel is slightly out of the centre of Taormina and a brisk 20 minute walk to the town. That said, you can organize a shuttle bus service with reception. Our room had a sea view and sensational balcony, which ticked all the right boxes. The room was spacious and cleaned to a very high standard twice a day. There... More
