    Double bed was 2 single beds pushed together. Felt like I was going to fall down between the mattresses..

    Great Central location in Taormina. Car Parking was organised for me. Great Breakfast with panoramic view looking over the ocean. Quiet location at night.

    First room we got was room on the ground floor with windows facing the main road. Definitely not suitable for light sleepers as the traffic was loud. Fortunately they had another room available for next night and we were moved to the 4th floor and then it was ok! Im very glad we could have moved. So try to ask for other room than ground floor if you are a light sleeper or pay more for the room with balcony/view.

    Lovely small pension just few minutes from Taormina’s old center & upper station of chair lift which will get you down to the beach within few moments. Personel in this place is lovely as well and I also appreciated great variety of breakfast buffet, possibility to eat it outside in a very nice garden terrace and complimentary prossecco. Bed was also good and many pillow options available.

    I would prefer a larger shower.

    For us, the location was perfect. It was near enough to be able to walk to everything, but just far enough away from all the crowds. There were several good restaurants just down the street. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

    A fantastic, homely gem in a fabulous location

    The hotel is charming - homely and very 'not corporate'. However the chairs in the room could have been more comfortable and the shower unit definitely needs updating.

    Location was superb - really could not have been more convenient. Views were fabulous. Breakfast was lovely and sundowner drinks on the terrace was a must. Staff could not have been more helpful.

    The lack of parking. We had to use a public car park which was full when we arrived and it was hard work with our luggage

    Very friendly and comfortable small hotel. Nice public areas including a small garden in which it was lovely to relax and enjoy a drink. The view from our terrace was amazing. The staff are brilliant.

    Busy streets all around. People with light sleep may have difficulty to find rest at night. I could manage well with ear protection.

    Great staff, warm and highly supportive with everything we needed under difficult health conditions. Beautiful terraces with a stunning view and a green, peaceful patio in the middle of town. Thank you!

    The only issue we had was the lack of on site parking but we were provided with an alternative secured parking lot a short walk away.

    Unfortunately I don't recall the name of the two young ladies at the front reception desk but they were very kind, welcoming and informative from the time we arrived until we left. The room was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast on the terrace was beautiful.

We had a sea view room .breakfast was good and we enjoyed a glass of complimentary Prosecco at breakfast . The rooms look a bit bigger in the photographs. Very clean rooms ,a little dated but that doesn’t bother us . and the staff were very pleasant and very helpful . Would stay again . Had a wonderful stay .

    The room keys are kept on a rack that is accessible to the guests, and anyone else that could wander in. We took our room key from here without staff present at one point. The rack should be controlled.

    Beautiful purpose built hotel with thick stone walls that keep the place cool. The courtyard and breakfast room are tranquil in a very tourist busy town. The staff were all very nice and happy to help with anything. We also got a free upgrade to a room with a terrace!
