Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a wonderful view and a serene setting for a relaxing stay. The rooms provide a fantastic view but may suffer from a noisy toilet at times. The beautiful seaview adds to the charm, even though there is no balcony available.
The hotel is conveniently located close to the funicular to the beach and the old town of Taormina. The rooms offer a beautiful sea view, but some may find the toilet noise disturbing. Overall, a good value for the money.
The hotel is nestled near the old town of Taormina, offering a serene stay in beautiful gardens. The rooms provide a lovely view but are prone to some noise issues from the toilet. The service is efficient, though missing room service. The location is ideal for exploring the city's attractions and enjoying the nearby cable car to the beach. The dining experience includes fresh fruits and fish and chips. The facility amenities are adequate, albeit lacking some key features.
I found the hotel to be a mixed experience. The rooms had a wonderful view and a good bathroom but were located on level 3, which was a bit inconvenient. The noisy toilet was a downside during my stay.
The hotel is situated on the side of the hill overlooking the island below, offering a wonderful view. The rooms on level 3 with a sea view provide a fantastic panorama, though lacking a balcony. The noisy toilet was a minor inconvenience but did not detract from the experience overall.
