    Great Beach stay.

    • Family with young children
    • Deluxe Triple Room with Sea View

    The room is a bit small for three people.

    Our room had one big bed and one small sofa bed for one person, bathroom and big balcony. The location in front of the beach is great, 10 min walk and you are swimming. Is also close to the funicular that travels to the historical center.

    The room is outdated and fine for one or two nights but nothing special or luxurious. Worth it for the views though!

    Great location and great views of Isola Bella - very close to the beach and has a minimart closeby for drinks etc. It's worth upgrading to a balcony because sitting there with some drinks and looking out onto the ocean was so relaxing and the best part of the hotel. They let us leave our luggage there when we checked out, too. Staff were friendly.

    1. Parking is a bit far away they say 150m. Actualy it is 350m so when carring a troley it is not so nice. 2. The room is quite basic so do not expect it to be fancy. 3. The elevator is very very slow

    1. Location was great just in front of Isola Bella. 2. Room with a balcony and a beautiful view of the island.

    Complimentary coffee and 1 bottle of water would have been nice, but nothing major to complain about. The sidewalk in overall Taormina is pretty much non-existent. If you stay by the beach just expect this regardless of where you stay.

    We spent 2 nights at Mendolia Hotel. The room, and the hotel overall, has a large terrace, from where you can enjoy Isola Bella. The beach entrance is right across the street. There are some small grocery stores and plenty of restaurants nearby. The nearby beach is both private and public. We enjoyed both of them the same. The beach was stony but pretty clean. We received fresh towels every day. The personnel was very nice and accommodating. No complaints. Accessible. We arrived directly from Catania airport, took a direct bus (Etna) and walked for about 15 min. The Cablecar that takes you up to Taormina is nearby also (6 euro/direction).

    Parking is available for additional price near the hotel but during our stay in high tourism season the parking was very full and quite stresful to park there.

    The location of the hotel is very convinient if you want to visit Isola Bella and relax on the beach there - just few minutes away down the stairs. Clean and nice room, amazing view from the balcony.

    It was loud and I don’t mean loud because the main road, but other guests were incredibly loud. The chairs moved around would cause so much noise upstairs (I was in room 121) that I feel like something should be put underneath each chair leg, something soft to prevent the sharp noise waking you up in the middle of the night, or early morning. People coughing and slamming doors. The gate was super loud. I know it’s a heavy door, but again - I tried to make as little noise closing it late in the evening/night, and some people would just SLAM it. I did a lot of walking g around, sightseeing and each night I was hoping for a better sleep, but that never came. Shame.

    Parking was a little confusing; we managed to park down at the bottom near the cable car at 15 Euros a day (we were there for two). Not a massive inconvenience but it was raining and then seeing when we arrived so had to haul our things up the (short) hill in the rain. No fault of the hotel of course - the entrance is on the main road and parking limited there (we were told that after 8pm we probably would get a space nearby on the road for free but chose not to wait)

    Beautiful room (lots of steps to get there but there is a lift and we preferred the exercise!) with a view to die for; we had a fridge to keep water cool and a balcony where we could have an extra glass of wine to end the evening. Beautiful - a lovely memory, and the staff were lovely too - thank you for a fabulous experience!

    We were accommodated on the 5th floor. The elevator arrives until 4 and is stopped after 8:00 p.m. When you arrive at the hotel in the night after a day of visiting Taormina, you want the elevator to run

    There was a boiling cattle for making tea but no glasses or mugs,only plastic cups. There was quite a noise from the street as there is a frequent road in front of the hotel (on the side where the balcony was situated), but it got quiet later in the evening. And last thing,which is not about the hotel,just a recommendation:if you are arriving to Taormina by train,I do not recommend walking to the hotel as I did. On google maps it said only 35 minutes,which was right,but there is practically no sidewalk and you need to use the roadside which felt pretty dangerous at times. I suggest using bus or a taxi for this part of the road.

    The view from the balcony was stunning, just as promised. Curtains especially thick so the room was nicely dark at night. They were cleaning the room every day. Five minutes walk to the beach at the Isola Bella. Many restaurants and small markets on the street. The staff was very helpful, got a taxi for me as I was leaving early in the morning.
