Perfect resort in beautiful Taormina. Shuttle to the town makes everything so easy. Private beach is excellent without the crowds of nearby beaches. Amazing tunnel to the pool and beachside restaurant. All good.

Lovely hotel in great location with fantastic views of the sea and Mount Etna. Room was very comfortable with excellent bathroom and shower. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was amazing. Although you do have to walk up quite a few steps and a reasonable distance to get the town center, it is a nice walk and we had no problems with it,

The view was exceptional. The room was lovely. New and well equipped. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We accidentally left a shirt in the room and Salvo was extremely kind to post it to us, without charge. It is a bit of a walk to the town centre(which is great after a good meal), but the is a bus which stops outside.
There are no lifts, which is understandable. Therefore, those with limited mobility should keep this, and the fact that it's an uphill walk back to the hotel, in mind.

As you admire crystal-clear turquoise seas from a Taormina piazza swathed in vibrant pink blossom, you could be forgiven for thinking that you were in paradise. The stunning location of this picturesque town is its crowning glory.
However, it’s not its only glory. Surrounded by trees just below the main town, the Greek Theatre is also a triumph. Its largely intact seating offers wonderful views across the stage towards Mount Etna fuming away in the distance. Spine-tingling summer performances are still held here, and several of the town’s bars also offer live music.
Corso Umberto I runs through the heart of Taormina, from Piazza Corvaja to the 13th-century cathedral, and houses many shops and cafés. Midway along is Piazza IX Aprile, whose clock tower and church are overlooked by a rocky hill topped with a castle.
A cable car runs from the town down to the beautiful Taormina beaches (where the train station is also found). At the centre of the W-shaped bay is little Isola Bella, an island nature reserve. To the south-west is the long stretch of sand at Giardini-Naxos, and north is the bay by Mazzaró.
As you would expect of Sicily’s most beautiful resort, there is no shortage of Taormina accommodation on Booking.com, including 5-star hotels on the beach, town centre apartments and luxury B&Bs.

Taormina is an undeniably beautiful town that captures the charm of Sicily with its stunning views and Greek History. One of the highlights of visiting Taormina is the views one of which is Mount Etna, which serves as a magnificent backdrop to the town. However, it is very pricey and touristy, which can detract from its authenticity and local feel.
The town boasts an array of high-end shops and restaurants, catering to visitors seeking luxury and fine dining experiences. It's an excellent place to visit for a day trip, allowing you to soak in the sights, enjoy the upscale ambiance, and perhaps indulge in some shopping.
The beaches below Taormina, while picturesque, are primarily reserved for guests staying at the beach resorts. The public areas on these beaches are relatively small and can get crowded and you can be bothered by street vendors, especially during peak tourist season. If you're planning to spend a day at the beach, staying at one of the resorts might offer a more comfortable and exclusive experience.
In summary, Taormina is a delightful destination for a day trip, especially if you appreciate high-end shopping and dining, and want to enjoy a stunning view of Mount Etna. However, be prepared for the tourist crowds and limited public beach access.

It is super full of tourists. We were there in late May. During the day, the day trip groups come to the town and it becomes hard to walk on the streets or find a sport in a restaurant. The prices in the restaurants are high.

The whole town of Taormina was just Glorious!! The charm, Greek Roman archeological history in full display at the Amphitheater, spectacular views of Mount Etna, traditions, Sicilian food and cuisine, friendly people, shopping of Corso Umberto, and the stunning natural beauty, views, and beaches like that of Baia Isola Bella are not to be missed!! Absolutely a must see when traveling to Sicily!!

Taormina is a 'must see' destination and has so much to offer. We visited Savoca nearby whilst staying in Taormina which was a real treat. We also had an excellent dinner one night in Giardini Naxos and were serenaded by a folk group who made the night magical. We will definitely be returning.

A marvellous location and unique natural beauty have earned this city the nickname of Pearl of the Ionian Sea. The distinctive city of Taormina in eastern Sicily is perched on a rock above sea level, with awe-inspiring views over Mount Etna and the coastline.
Like many other tourism hotspots, you have to plan carefully to avoid tourist traps and not get stuck in huge crowds.

Loved the location, lots to explore on foot with the Corso Umberto for shopping and eating, the Greek Theatre and the Botanical gardens for a quiet place to reflect and enjoy the views, and a play area for the children.
The cable car is worth using to access the beaches which again are well serviced with food, drink and toilet facilities.
Fabulous food, Mount Etna on your doorstep and great shopping.
The staff is extremely careful about service. There is a family atmosphere in this hotel. The breakfast was great. The location is optimal : close to the mail touristic street, but easy to reach with a park. A parking is available (if booked in advance). So it solves the main problem with Taormina : coming with a car.
The view from the roof is magnificient. My room was very large. The view was pretty nice.
I will come back.
Great boutique Hotel, very well located adjacent to the main pedestrian street of Taormina.
Very elegant and neat. clean, spotless bathroom and toilets.
Great breakfast.
Very nice rooftop terrace.
Elevator and Garage car park.
But the best part is the staff!
Thank you Giuseppe for your great hospitality and attention.
Thank you Gatzia for all the breakfast traets :).
We will surely come back.
Arrivederci
Beautiful is a cosy, sparkling clean Beautiful studio:), located perfectly next to two beaches- Isola Bella and a beach, where top rated hotels are located (i.e. Villa Sant'Andrea). It is 2-minute walk to the cable car, connecting Mazzaro and Taormina centre. There are nice restaurants and cafes nearby...
We had a great stay in Marcello's studio- the communication with him was perfect! Highly recommend!
This place is a gem! By far the best level of service we experienced during our time in Sicily. The location is perfect: on a quiet street just 3 minutes walk to the bustling center of Taormina. Rooms are spacious, beds comfortable and amenities comparable to those offered by a 5 star hotel. Loved the personal touches and the time taken to show us around. Definitely the place to stay in Taormina.
Fantastic views, good selection of food for breakfast, very friendly staff. We stayed in the hotel for 5 days and it was the best holiday ever! This hotel deserves 5 stars! It has everything needed for comfortable stay plus the building itself is absolutely gorgeous! Will be back for sure and will recommend Bel Soggiorno to everyone looking for a superb place to stay in Taormina.
Stayed overnight before visiting Taormina. Secure private/free parking right across the hotel - check in first and then the receptionist will guide you to the parking lot. Good value. Good breakfast. Friendly staff. Clean/basic room. Tasty pizzeria right next door. Train tracks right behind the building but did not interfere with good sleep. Overall, a good stay.
Unassuming on the outside the hotel is built into the side of the hill with stunning sea views. The rooftop restaurant was jaw dropping, the pool cool and uncrowded and the staff genuinely welcoming. We were sailing around Sicily so one night ashore was a touch of luxury with a fantastically comfortable bed, beautiful bathroom and dinner in the evening was five star.
Hotel was in a good location, not far from the centre of Taormina, so easy access to most of the attractions in the area. We had a lovely view of the sea from our room and the room was clean and well kept. The hotel staff were very friendly and provided us some great recommendations for places to eat, they spoke good English, which made it very easy for us.
I wish I could this property more then 5 stars. The apartment was exceptionally clean. The bed was so comfortable. The shower was absolutely lovely too. Easy parking right on the street in front of the apartment too. This was our fourth place we have stayed in Italy/Sicily and it was by far the best, cleanest, and most comfortable place we have stayed.
The location was optimal with just a 5 minute walk to the city Centre. We travelled to Taormina mostly for a concert at the old theatre so the hotel was only a few minutes walk away. The staff were also incredibly friendly and helpful; sharing very useful information and offering tours for various attractions around the area.
everything the staff was excellent! sooo sweet so professional and nice!
just beyond 5 star. I’ve stayed at many hotels 5 star and they all feel very 4 star. this was beyond

Angelo! was the greatest! I hope the owners know what an asset he is to the property. He is the face of Taormina Garden Hotel.
We also liked the landscaping and the private/public beach was awesome.
The cable car close by made going to Taormina a delight!
Beautiful gardens and a historic hotel building. The location made accessing Taormina’s town centre very easy. Lovely host who was very helpful. It was also great value for money. We loved our stay here.
We love everything about this hotel. Every time we come to taormina we book this hotel. It is pricey but we have gone two years in a row for my birthday so its a special treat for us.
The staff are so friendly and accommodating— Mario and Francesco made us feel so welcome. A gorgeous and tasteful hotel. 5-min walk to Taormina city centre and from cable car down.
This small hotel is in the heart of the historic centre of Taormina. It is spacious, airy, with the old charm. The room was rather basic but with two balconies with great views.
It’s close to the Main Street, boutiques and restaurants! Staff very friendly.
