The room, bed, TV and toilet are very old. The hotel is outdated. Only one thing is appreciated, the breakfast is good. The security of the room is not good enough, the room key is just hanging on the wooden wall of the receiption.

Assolutamente negativa. La posizione è ottima essendo situato nel centro storico di Taormina ma per quanto riguarda l’hotel la delusione è stata tantissima. La stanza era sporca, il bagno la parte peggiore. Mai più

L'hotel è in una villa padronale vicino a Porta Catania. La vista sul mare è splendida. la passeggiata la si raggiunge in pochi minuti. La piscina è accessibile facilmente con l'ascensore ma, data la posizione, è poco areata e non presidiata. Questo è anche dovuto alle piccole dimensioni della struttura. La colazione è adeguata. Se si arriva in macchina si può posteggiare a un costo ragionevole. La camera con balcone che mi hanno dato era spaziosa e con vista stupenda. Sono soddisfatto del rapporto prezzo/qualità.

Air conditioner in room didn't work - I mention it and they say they would get it fixed. When I inquire upon returning from a walk, they said it was fine. It wasn't - they follow me to the room and verify it's not working, and then said they cannot get anyone to fix it. I should open the window instead and hope that mosquitoes don't come in. They were fully booked so they cannot switch rooms, so I ask for a partial discount. They said they cannot do it. Furthermore, there was no water provided in the room, barely usable hand towels. Not what you would expect for this price.

Hotel molto bello ricavato in un antica villa dotato di una splendida piscina. Personale cordiale e molto disponibile. Pulizia eccellente. Colazione buona anche se non ricchissima. Posizione ottima: a piedi si raggiunge in un minuto il centro storico. Purtroppo segnalo la pecca del wi-fi: si attiva solo se si sta nei dintorni della reception, in camera e in piscina non va. Attenzione che gli extra si pagano a parte: il parcheggio (interno alla struttura) costa 15 euro a notte; i semplici caffè si pagano pure. Nel complesso hotel 4 stelle molto valido dove vale la pena soggiornare specie se trovate qualche offerta scontata sul pernottamento!

Camera non corrispondente alle foto sul sito. Illuminazione “tremolante”, segnalato immediatamente e non presa in considerazione. Bagno: è stata sostituita la porta ma non rifinito il muro lasciando grezzo. Pavimento con le fughe “nere”, tasselli con ganci non più utilizzati lasciati al muro. Da Mac 2 stelle. Camera: televisore obsoleto, presa a muro per te fuori dalla cassetta murale, numero insufficienti di prese, per caricare il tel. Scollegata abat-jour. Mobili: aperto cassetti comodino che puzzavano di vecchio; armadio, grucce appendi abito addirittura da tintoria. Finestra su stanza visibile dalla strada.
