We had a wonderful experience here. Check in was very easy and smooth. The location was right in the city center which allowed for easy site seeing and walking to food/shopping. There is a cable car a short walk away that takes you to the beaches. The hosts were very nice and helped us with booking a car. This felt very safe as you had multiple keys to get access into the building and the room. I feel a solo traveler would be very safe with this hotel.

The 24/7 concierge was amazing! The staff were really helpful and answered any questions you had and were happy to book reservations to make your day trips as pleasant as possible. The complimentary breakfast every morning was fresh, hearty, and delicious - mad world to order eggs/omelets and coffee!

The staff was wonderful. They even met us at the square and navigated our car up into their parking area. They just went over and above doing anything they could for us! The cottage was roomy, decorated nicely and super clean. The staff brought us anything we needed and even let me know when the spa was ready after it went down for 15 minutes. The views from the cottage were superb- from the terraces all the way out to the sea, and the garden with it's citrus and vegetables draped everywhere....

Palazzo Vecchio Taormina is an amazing hotel! It is a Palazzo that has been wonderfully and tastefully renovated. My room had an incredible view of the sea and the bells from an old church nearby. Waking up and looking out of the window and facing the morning light was unforgettable. I have stayed in many top hotels around the world- besides the above, what distinguishes this hotel is the people working there- the staff at the restaurant (Armando, Vincenzo) are outstanding.

This hotel is an excellent base for exploring Taormina. It's inside the walls, near shops and restaurants (although on the opposite side of town from the Roman amphitheater). The service was excellent and friendly. The breakfasts, served on a rooftop with a commanding view, were outstanding - pretty much anything you might want, including eggs cooked to order. Caution: you can't pull your car up to the hotel, which is in a pedestrian-only area. You park in a multi-story garage, take the elevator...

Our stay at Medousa Suites was wonderful. It is located right outside of the main entrance to Corso Umberto/Main Street through Taormina making it a prime location. The room had a beautiful balcony with views of the water and Mt.Etna. The room itself was clean, bed was comfy, and we had a very nice coffee machine. Staff were great! Medousa bistro is right below the suites and is perfect for breakfast or a nice dinner. Everything shopping and food wise is a 2-5min walk.

Enormous deck overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea. Room is clean, modern, with enormous windows to capture sky and sea. Hosts Giovanna and Francesco are welcoming, willing to allow dog-loving guests to socialize with their amiable Boxer, Bart. Owners on premises, and available. Only five units in this lovely home pitched cliffside. Walk to town is close, but involves stone steps up the hillside.Parking on premises makes coming and going easy, so best to drive to Taormina in my 74-year-old opinion....

Omg. We just checked out. We miss it already. Our entire stay from start to finish was incredible. The staff made us feel like family. David the concierge made each day so special for us. What a memorable stay he created for us. Alesia at the front desk is so lovely. From the second we made eye contact she greeted us and checked in with us every day. As a hotel General Manager this hotel is 5 stars in every way. Your housekeepers have been trained so well. Cannot say enough about our stay. Thank...

We booked a room in the Rock annex. It was an entire, fully equipped apartment. The Rock annex is located across the street and down about one block from the main hotel. To be honest, other than doing the initial checkin and a walk around, we never went to the main hotel building. The pool is located there and there is a small bar. However, we were not in Taormina to sit by the pool, so it was of little interest to us. The apartment was wonderful! Quiet. Accessible to everything. Best, I was...

The staff was very accommodating. Very knowledgeable for a quick restaurant recommendation with out of their way to accommodate your needs My only pet peeve like with all hotels that they don't put hooks on the wall for craps that you can hang things up while traveling

This place was insane! Top notch customer service, location, views, and all amenities. I would highly encourage anyone to stay here as the views from the patio are absolutely beautiful. The entire apartment was very clean brand new with everything that you possibly would need. This is the best location ever with prestigious shopping at your fingertips as well as any restaurant you desire. We will definitely coming back to stay and much longer! Thank you for an incredible experience!
