Character hotel in excellent location at the end of the main street running through Taormina. The pool is a stroll away through the private gardens and has privacy and lovely shade trees for those who would prefer not to roast! Highly recommended.- 16-Oct-2009 Advantage - The hotel was located in the center of Taormina. This was excellent as you could come and go without using your car. A car should be avoided as Taromina is very compact with very small and curvy one-way streets.
Advantage - The hotel had a very nice swimming pool. Both sun and shade were available. The bar was open. It served drinks and light snacks.
Advantage - The hotel offers a 40% discount for parking.
Advantage - The room was spacious, clean, and quiet.
Neutral - Our hotel room offered a very nice balcony and view of Mount Etna but not of the coastline.
Disadvantage - Even though there were many advantages to this hotel, I felt that the room was overpriced at EUR 200 per night. I would have expected something more for this price, although I cannot explicitly specify what that would be.- 15-Jun-2008 |
