This is a lovely hotel right off the Main Street in Taormina. I got a room with a little balcony which was worth it. The terrace was unfortunately closed and not sure why or for how long. Breakfast was good. Would stay again.

Der Empfang war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend, das Hotel und die Zimmer sauber. Sehr zentrale Lage, es ist alles zu Fuß erreichbar, Restaurants u.a. Geschäfte bzw. die Fußgängerzone. Einzig, aber das weiss man, wenn man die Bewertungen liest ... in der direkten Nacharschaft befindet sich eine Musikkneipe, da wird es jeden Abend doch laut. Da man sich vorher aber informieren kann, sehe ich das nicht als Mangel, aber ruhig ist es abends daher nicht.

The Hotel was at the centre of a lot of restaurant s& Shops. The atmosphere was very lively and entertaining. Staff at reception were welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was very nice and hotel was clean. The decor of the Reception area and other common areas was beautiful. Room was a bit small and it was disappointing that the Terrace area was closed for repair as the view from up there would have been amazing.

Posizione strategica, in pieno centro, vicino alle attrattive di Taormina, ma lontano dal caos. Camera con vista mare, terrazzino con sdraie, pulito. Colazione continentale perfetta. Personale gentilissimo. Consigliato. Unico appunto: terrei un po' bassa l'aria condizionata. Comunque tornerei sicuramente

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
We enjoyed the location, the breakfast and the building itself. Especially the balconies that overlook the main shopping street. However, of the 3 rooms our group reserved, the levels of comfort differed significantly. Some of us had air conditioning while others rooms felt warm all night, despite the air being on. Some of us had comfortable, soft beds, others had hard and uncomfortable beds. Some showers were very small and others fine. Like most small hotels in Italy, it really was a gamble on which you would get. The staff however was very kind and did try to help with the room temperature. The terrace bar was under construction but the lobby bar was a great amenity to have with a pleasant bartender.

Excellent location close to all the action, great for solo travellers. As other reviews mentioned the sounds of the night life do make it up to the water facing rooms but quiets down after 11pm. Staff were helpful. Breakfast was simple but great.

The air condition unit in my room was very old and did not work. Alberto kindly moved me to another room for 1 night but he could not do it for more because there was no free room. Thus I had to open the large windows for the nights and sleep without cover. That did not solve the problem because of extreme humidity due to the rain.

Hotel bem localizado. Muito antigo e algumas partes estão não operantes. Café da manhã ok (falta reposição as vezes) e ar condicionado por vezes não gelava. Mas dado o preço na região e a ótima localização, eu ficaria novamente.
