Nice people, wonderful location, fantastic food and wine

Brilliant hotel, definitely worth its money. The staff is super friendly, the breakfast amazing and the breakfast outstanding.

You cannot beat the view from this hotel of mount etna, the coast and Taormina from above - it was outstanding. You saw this from the restaurant, the infinity pool and also our room. It does mean you are above the town which requires a walk down a fair number of steps into town (and back up) or use of the free hourly hotel shuttle, but the walk is also beautiful and was very doable in October’s mild weather. It also means you are aware from the crowds in a very quiet area. The hotel felt warm and homely and the service was excellent. We loved having a cocktail in the cosy lounge in the evening whilst relaxing on the sofas. Rooms were comfortable with a choice of pillows. Air con was on the noisy side but wasn’t essential for us in Autumn. Parking was very easy on the street outside of the hotel and free. Overall, it was on the pricey side but worth paying a bit more for getting to stay somewhere quite special.
