I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious, with a huge balcony and a separate walk-in wardrobe. The view was great, although the room showed some signs of aging. The staff was friendly and attentive, making my visit comfortable. However, the rooms were functional but nothing extraordinary.

The hotel offers a lovely view of the sea and Mt. Etna. The rooms are good-sized with a lovely balcony and a very nice private terrace overlooking the Mediterranean. The service was excellent, with staff always willing to assist. The location is fantastic, close to the center of Taormina with breathtaking views. Dining had a wide choice, but there were some issues with cold/lukewarm food. The facilities were well-maintained, and the price offered good value for money.

The hotel had modern, well-furnished rooms with beautiful views, though the Junior Suite lacked a separate living room. The service was very helpful and welcoming, especially the panoramic escalator. The location was convenient with great views but had a steep slope to access. The dining experience was very good overall, with lots of tasty choices continuously topped up. The facilities were well-maintained and pleasant.

The hotel is nestled right near Taormina's center with stunning sea views. The rooms are clean and cozy, and the staff goes above and beyond to help. However, the location requires some hill walking, and the presence of mold in the shower was off-putting. Dining offers a delightful range of tasty dishes but can get a bit crowded. Overall, a great place with a few minor drawbacks.

Wow, this hotel is a mixed bag but has its highlights! The rooms, despite not matching the pictures on the website, have a stunning balcony with a sea view and are quite comfortable. However, some photos seem a bit too polished. The service, especially when a staff member went above and beyond to help with our suitcases, was a hit or miss. The location is unbeatable with breathtaking views and easy access to the town, although the steep driveway and parking situation may be challenging. Dining was a delight with tasty treats and champagne, but the pool complaint fell short. The facilities overall were good.

The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms offered a view of the ocean and pool, but the reception side of the hotel wasn't ready upon our arrival, which was disappointing as we were on our honeymoon. The price was quite high for a partial sea view and an obstructed balcony. The service was a mixture of rudeness and helpfulness, with some staff being friendly and helpful while others were sporadically supportive. The location was excellent with beautiful views but had a steep incline. The dining options seemed limited initially but improved upon inquiry. The facilities were decent overall.

I stayed at this hotel overlooking the coast, and I had a great night's sleep in a roomy and beautiful setting. The service was outstanding, with staff going above and beyond to ensure my needs were met. The location offers stunning views, although the access can be a bit challenging due to the hill. The dining experience was mixed, with good options but occasional issues. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few hiccups.
