The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable with a huge balcony and a jacuzzi bath tub, but lacked a shower and had some issues with grunge. The service was excellent, with staff going above and beyond, especially Celeste. The location overlooks the town with excellent views but requires a challenging climb up many stairs. The dining experience was varied and included a typical European style breakfast. The facilities were satisfactory overall.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room was quite disappointing, dark, and gloomy, more like a 1-star than a 3-star, but it was well-equipped, spacious, warm, and cozy despite some minor grunge in the bathroom. The service was great, with charming and attentive staff offering a range of helpful amenities. The location offered breathtaking views of the Mediterranean sea and Mt Etna, making it a perfect starting point to explore Taormina. Dining was a pleasant surprise with a nice spread of European-style breakfast options, although the overall quality was just okay. The facilities were satisfactory, providing everything needed for a comfortable stay.

Staying at this hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms offered a breathtaking view of the Etna and Taormina-Giardini Naxos coast from the nice balcony, but they seemed a bit outdated since decades. The location, although high on a hill between Taormina and Castelmola, was a bit inconvenient for reaching the beach and Taormina's center easily.

The hotel offers simple, very clean, and comfortable rooms, although a bit basic and could use some updating. The staff is extremely friendly and kind, making the service pleasant.

I had a great time at the hotel! The rooms were spacious, warm, cozy, and impeccably clean, with a luxurious deep soaking jacuzzi tub. However, they were basic but more than adequate for a comfortable stay. The hotel had one of the best views in Sicily, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The location was convenient, only a short walk into Taormina, and the dining options were nice with a variety of delicious food choices. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and felt it was a good value for the money.

My stay at this hotel was an experience of contrasts. The room was very spacious, but a bit dark and could get chilly without the sunlight. However, it was basic yet clean, with a nice balcony offering a breathtaking view of Mount Etna and the Taormina-Giardini Naxos coast. The location, while high on a hill between Taormina and Castelmola, provided a unique perspective but was a bit inconvenient for beach access and reaching Taormina's center.

The location on the hill overlooking Taormina offered magnificent views of the Mediterranean Sea and Mount Etna but involved a strenuous uphill climb back from town. A good 15-minute walk down to Taormina showcased the beautiful surroundings and the proximity to the Madonna della Rocca church.

The breakfast was satisfying with a variety of typical European offerings, but the experience could be enhanced by serving it on the terrace to fully enjoy the splendid views of the surroundings. It was convenient to avoid the trek to Taormina center for dining.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were generally clean but would benefit from renovations soon. The view of Etna and the coast from the balcony was truly mind-blowing. The location, though high on a hill, offered great value for the price, but it was a bit random from the beach and the center of Taormina. The small room size and a leaking bath tub were downsides.

Wow! This hotel is perched high on a hill between Taormina and Castelmola, offering breathtaking views of Mount Etna and the Taormina-Giardini Naxos coast from my balcony. The rooms, though a bit small, were impeccably clean and tidy. The swimming pool was a nice touch, and the continental breakfast with an ocean view was delightful. However, accessing the beach and Taormina's center required some effort due to the location.
