Taormina|0.56km from Piazza IX Aprile
I would like to give 6* if possible! This was a special holiday for my husband's birthday. We stayed here on the recommendation of our travel agent who have customers who rave about it. I can see why! Even though we had an entry level room (others were taken) it was amazing! ALL staff were fantastic but special mention to Manuella and Marco from the breakfast team. Beautiful, small hotel (23 rooms) which was a private villa, originally. Very well appointed and nicely decorated. The breakfast room is on the roof with amazing views. Only thing that spoiled the tranquility was a group of loud American cyclists (I think) Loud in the breakfast room; loud by the pool. :( The Michelin Starred restaurant, as you would expect, is very expensive as well as drinks from the bar. 20 euros for a glass of wine! Perfect situation for exploring Taomina. Lots of great restaurants and a walk down the, pedestrianised, main street was great with all the designer shops. A trip to the Opera was 22 euros well spent, too! Easy access to the bus station, cable car for a trip to Isola Bella is worth a visit. So much to see in the area, too. Local tourist office (near the Messina Gate) can book these for you. We went on the Godfather tour, of course, a day trip to Syracuse, Ortegia and Neapolis, and Etna is a must! There is a hop on/hop off bus which gives you an orientation tour of the area. We hope to return and maybe try one of the bigger, sea front rooms.
Grand Hotel San Pietro

Grand Hotel San Pietro

Taormina|0.8km from Piazza IX Aprile
Batu, the gourmet restaurant at the Grand Hotel San Pietro Taormina Sicily and its boutique hotel is an absolute five star gem and must experience for travel adventurers and foodies seeking a real touch of old world class! Food GM Luigi was our passionate and deeply knowledgeable personal culinary guide for an exquisite experience of Chef Luca’s Batu food artistry. Wrapped in the cashmere caress of the unique five star boutique on a cliff overlooking the Ionian Sea in a magical garden setting of glowing lights and beautifully appointed terrace, the story of elevated Sicilian cuisine tells a story of the Etna elements, authentic produce and traditions elevated with modern techniques set apart by its inner beauty. From exceptional amuse bouche to amuse bouche to an forgettable bread course with a whipped sweet cream hand turned butter, through each chapter of our selected menu of Sicilian flavors including a delicate crisped zucchini pasta to the perfect bite of Al Dente lasagna of ragu to a trio of perfectly seasoned and delicately grilled meats to a fantastical finish of miniature Italian desserts all beautifully plated and intellectually stimulating of the senses; topping a special evening of lovingly prepared food and beautifully presented and paced service. We very highly recommend the Batu and San Pietro, five stars all the way and without the tired forced pretentiousness so common now, from the moment we stepped out of our car thru every experience from breakfast to pool to coordinated excursions. Thank you so much to Luigi, Chef Luca, Fabio, Mikela, Nino, the very kind pool manager, and the entire GHSP dedicated staff for making our trip so memorable. Grand Hotel San Pietro truly rivals the best of the best!! 🙌❤️ Love, JAM from NYC

Hotel Villa Schuler

Taormina City Center Taormina|0.11km from Piazza IX Aprile
We got married at the Villa Schuler in August 2022 and it was truly brilliant!! We came over from England and had a Civil Ceremony at the Palazzo Di Santo Stefano, which was beautiful. Us and all of our guests stayed at the Hotel and they were absolutely fantastic for the entire duration of our 5 night stay and made our Wedding Reception perfect for us! From the moment we arrived, Gerhard, Christine, Claudia and all of the staff made us feel extremely welcome, at ease, and so special as they understood how big a trip this was for us! They worked alongside us to ensure we had the best possible Wedding; we had a drinks reception, live music and canapes in their lovely, secluded garden, then a delicious Sicilian wedding dinner, drinks and dancing with a DJ on the roof terrace - which they made look really stunning!! Ours was their biggest event so far this year with 40 weddings guests and they seemed so proud and happy to be hosting; nothing was stressful for us and they were natural hosts. On every aspect, Gerhard, Claudia and the team went over and above! The level of service from all of the staff is exceptional, and the hotel has retained such a lovely warm, traditional, family feel. We had one of the top floor suites with a balcony and sun loungers, it was a comfortable, fantastic room with an excellent sea view! I can highly recommend the Hotel Villa Schuler for both a Holiday and a Wedding - we definitely made the right decision : ) I cannot fault anything. All of our families and friends loved the hotel and everything about the Wedding and many want to return. Myself and my husband are going to revisit to celebrate our first anniversary in August 2023 and we can't wait!! Thank you to everybody involved and we look forward to seeing you again.

Hotel Isabella

Taormina City Center
Although you can't enjoy a private beach in winter (the winter beach is closed), you can feel the Christmas atmosphere everywhere on the street. The location of the hotel is very good, just walk around the town to eat and walk. The balcony of the room faces the street view and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of TAORMINA every morning. The hotel staff is also very enthusiastic and will assist with various issues. The next visit will definitely stay at this hotel again.
Relais 147

Taormina City Center
We finished our trip in Sicily with a three-day stay at the Relais 147. Our hosts Rohid and his wife were wonderful, professional, warm, and kind hosts. From the moment we checked in, nothing was too much trouble. The room was absolutely spotless and the location was just perfect right on the Corso Umberto a beautiful street with all the main sites and restaurants a stone's throw away. The venue is small and peaceful and a welcome break from the bustle in Taormina. We were able to connect with Rohid easily via Whatsapp with any questions about Taormina and he shared a fantastic list of restaurants and sites to see.
NH Collection Taormina

We loved the location of the hotel. We stayed 4 days and used it as our home as we e plowed the area. We did a city tour, a day of sailing and wine tasting at Barone di Villa Grande. It was raining one day so did not take in Mt Etnea. I definitely have to give a shout out to the concierge Sarah. She is FANTASTIC. She provided a wealth of information and booked events. It was my husbands birthday and she arranged a great surprise for him. the hotel is beautiful and the staff are friendly; however, she made our experience over the top. We totally recommend staying at NH,

What a wonderful hotel! Amazing location and beautifully decorated. The garden is a delight with the scent of orange blossom wafting into our room. All of the staff were so helpful and friendly - they couldn't do enough for us. Breakfast was served in a room overlooking the town with another view towards Mount Etna. We had an incredibly relaxing few days staying at Villa Taormina and would love to go back.

Hotel Villa Paradiso
4.4/558 Reviews
Taormina City Center
Sadly, excluding a wonderful lady behind reception & a lovely cleaner, this hotel at best is a 2 star hotel. Our experience has just been horrific, and I feel it only fair to share our true honest happenings. We arrived and were upgraded to a larger room. Greatly appreciated. We asked for directions to the pool, which may I point out is NOT part of the hotel, it’s a lido on the beach only reachable by a 15/20 minute shuttle bus. So the advertising of this hotel having a pool onsite is very far from the truth. I filtered swimming pool & free cancellation & there is NO swimming pool. So please do not expect one. The hotel room was warn out & needed some tlc. The curtain rail fell and landed on my head on the first afternoon, and was left on the floor for our entire stay. No attempt to fix it for us. The shower cubicle doors would not open or close easily. In fact I’d shower with them open and put towels all over the floor so I didn’t create a huge mess. Sadly on our third day in the hotel, my partner showered & the cubicle door shattered all over him. Glass absolutely everywhere. In his feet on his legs and he was bleeding too. He has scratches left on his legs and glass was still in his feet. The cleaner in shock rushed in, and a gave my partner flip flops as you could barely see any floor without shattered glass. Between the cleaner and a staff member, they cleaned the mess as if it had never happened. And we were expected to continue our day. A lady behind reception offered us a small room which we declined, as worryingly it felt also in need of some help. We continued our stay, as Taormina is full right now and left the hotel today at 12pm. Our departure was nothing short of horrifying, we arrived at reception greeted by the grandson of the owner rudely & aggressively pointing at us, surrounding us by three further Italian men, we have been told are police to ensure we pay for our damages. We did immediately as felt somewhat threatened & forced, and it wasn’t until the police heard the whole story, that they agreed this was unacceptable behaviour from the hotel & an extremely aggressive way to treat two individuals. They apologised repeatedly but we had paid the hotel & were left without any choice. The police did all they could and eventually got us a 50% refund in the damages cost. Sadly it hasn’t actually been refunded.
