My husband and I stayed here at the end of 2011. Though it has taken me a little while to write this review, this is no reflection on the hotel which was wonderful. We stayed for two nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hotel only has a few rooms. The decor is very decadent and elegant but this didn't... More

A short train ride from Messina found us in the seaside resort town of Taormina for a conference. We had elected to stay in a small hotel a half kilometer from the grand hotel where the meeting was being held. A short, but sinuous and expensive taxi ride 20 Euro taxi ride (found out later we overpaid by 5 Euros)... More

Absolute gem! This small, quiet and friendly hotel with 10 beautifully furnished rooms, mostly with balconies or terraces was absolutely wonderful. The view from the breakfast room over the rooftops to the bay and Mt Etna were panoramic to say the least. The staff were so welcoming and the whole place had a warm and family atmosphere. From the receptionist,... More

The main problem: Taormina itself is way overvalued, not worth the minimum stay of three nights that most hotels, including Villa Taormina, require. If authentic Italian life is your passion, avoid Taormina or stay one night only. Spend your time in Siracusa or Cefalu instead. If you care about value, don't even THINK of staying in Taormina. Unless you can... More

I was not overly wowed by this place. Rooms....even superior ones....are small and food was only OK. It would be a good hotel anywhere else in Sicily but at Taormina's grossly inflated prices the 99 percent in my opinion just don't get enough for their money...but then I think that is the case all over Taormina. Above all I didn't... More

I haven't written a review for quite a while but, credit where credit's due.... this place deserves a mention. Location is perfect. The staff were brilliant, Elena & Antonio made us feel so welcome and tried to help with every detail. I must mention the breakfast cook too- Breakfast was delish and some nice varied dishes every day. Also our... More

After spending two days in Catania we moved to Taormina. And it was the best decision we could ever make! Taormina is just beautiful. An old city with an outstanding panorama - even the parkins spaces have amazing view to the sea!!! Turning back to Villa Taormina: this is a small 4 stars hotels, with only several rooms, situated 2... More

What a delight this privately run hotel is. Only 10 rooms but each room is individually decorated and furnished to a very high standard. The attention from the staff and owners is first class. We enjoyed wondeful breakfasts looking out onto Mount Etna. The hotel is tucked away just off the main street and upon entering you find it adorned... More

This was a superb find - only 10 rooms, very quiet, but only 50m from the Corso Umberto and Porta Catania. The small hotel says quality and refinement from the moment you go through the door yet at the same time the whole atmosphere is very friendly and the staff are wonderful. The panoramic views from the top floor breakfast... More
