The room was clean and comfortable. The WiFi was intermittent unless you were outside or close to the restaurant. The buffet breakfast was delicious and full of a variety of pastries and regional items. The view from where we ate our breakfast was one of a kind. Within a 2-3 minute walk we were at the Car Lift to take us to the top of Taormina. We were within walking distance to 3 beaches. Also the Restaurant associated with the Hotel has delicious food. So if you are in need of a late dinner or snack make sure to ask for a table or take it back to your room, either way it's a must try.

Had a great stay! Our flight was delayed and they were super helpful and communicative. Amazing location above Mazzaro with a short walk down to the beach and a couple of minutes walk from the cable car. Happy we stayed in Mazzaro as it was sleepy compared to packed Taormina. Thanks Gallodoro!

Loved it! Great location with only a 2 minute walk to the cable car to take you up to Taormina old town. 5 minute walk to Isola Belle beach. Clean and comfy room (beds are on the hard side). Really nice staff and a great buffet breakfast on the balcony looking over the bay. Would highly recommend.

We absolutely loved our stay in this hotel. Staff was incredible friendly and made us feel very welcomed. We had such a unique room that had 2 floors (bathroom on the bottom floor, sleeps 4 in total, and a small private outdoor sitting area). We had easy outdoor access to our room, steps away from the Hotel's own restaurant which was lovely and was an very convenient. The hotel is also 5 minute walk down a few steps to a beach and also 5 minute walk to the gondola that brings you up to the Taormina city center. Loved our stay and would absolute stay here again in future!

Wouldn’t recommend

My skin felt like it was crawling every time I walked in the room The bathroom walls were filthy you could see the dirt dripping on the walls the towels were stained the paint on top of the bathroom tile was peeling there were bugs it was not a pleasant experience the restaurant staff was nice if the other hotel wasn’t built in front of their terrace the view would’ve been nice too but they need a deep cleaning and update not worth the money at least now that we’ve been we know where to stay in the future we thought stayingclosertonthenbeach was the answer but it’s better to stay closer to town and take an uber out to the beach once since it costs 30€ each time you order one

Great locstion woth amazing views over the sea (from the terrace). Breakfast was really mediocre and there were constantly birds landing on the terrace (not something that can be controlled by the hotel, but could be more actively patrolled). All of the staff were lovely, apart from one of the young guys who was extremely awkward and a little unfriendly. The Pizza is absolutely delicious and I highly reccomend this in the evenings, with soft jazz in the background.
