Our rooms were clean, the beds sufficiently comfortable, communication polite and thanks to deepL easy, breakfast was good, too. The location is excellent for reaching both the centro storico and Mazzaro beach/Isola Bella. We only stayed for one night and we would consider the hotel to be a good choice for a stay for 1 to 3 nights. We did not travel in the high season and were therefore lucky enough to be able to reserve 2 parking spaces in their inner yard, which was very convenient on our trip throughout Sicily.

Perhaps one of the nicest Hotels we have stayed in. The staff were all absolutely lovely.
The views from our bedroom, breakfast area and the swimming pool terrace were stunning.
Breakfast was 10/10 every day - tastiest food we've eaten in a hotel.
Location was 10/10 if you want to be beachside - if you want to be in the main town you will need to get the gondala up to the top which only takes 4 minutes.

The staff was very helpful and easy to talk to. We would like to especially thank Cristina who helped to organize a taxi for us as well as scooter rental. Meanwhile our room was spacious, clean and comfortable.

The Jewel in the Sicilian Crown
As you admire crystal-clear turquoise seas from a Taormina piazza swathed in vibrant pink blossom, you could be forgiven for thinking that you were in paradise. The stunning location of this picturesque town is its crowning glory.
However, it’s not its only glory. Surrounded by trees just below the main town, the Greek Theatre is also a triumph. Its largely intact seating offers wonderful views across the stage towards Mount Etna fuming away in the distance. Spine-tingling summer performances are still held here, and several of the town’s bars also offer live music.
Corso Umberto I runs through the heart of Taormina, from Piazza Corvaja to the 13th-century cathedral, and houses many shops and cafés. Midway along is Piazza IX Aprile, whose clock tower and church are overlooked by a rocky hill topped with a castle.
A cable car runs from the town down to the beautiful Taormina beaches (where the train station is also found). At the centre of the W-shaped bay is little Isola Bella, an island nature reserve. To the south-west is the long stretch of sand at Giardini-Naxos, and north is the bay by Mazzaró.
As you would expect of Sicily’s most beautiful resort, there is no shortage of Taormina accommodation on Booking.com, including 5-star hotels on the beach, town centre apartments and luxury B&Bs.

We were unlucky with the weather so didn’t do as much as we would have liked . You’ve got to be aware the hotel is a long way away from centre so might not suit everyone. Good shuttle service though and good view from hotel. Taormina is very crowded

The views are spectacular and the hotel itself was just perfect. The walkway thru a garden path is so gorgeous and takes you right into the heart of everything! The bonus was having valet service for our car so we never had to worry about parking, etc, Awesome!

Taormina is a good base-point for tours of Mt Etna.
Taormina is a good base-point for tours of Mt Etna. There are probably more tours running from Catania, but you can get a good tour from Taormina. The city itself is touristy, but clean and well organized. I won't throw the word "safe" out there, as we felt safe everywhere in Sicily, but we felt very comfortable in Taormina. Of course the sights and history don't compare to the bigger places in Sicily such as Siracusa, Palermo, or Agrigento, but that's not Taormina.

The city/village of Taormina was great for sightseeing.
The city/village of Taormina was great for sightseeing. We visited the ancient amphitheater, and enjoyed hiking in the area. There were an abundance of good shops and restaurants to visit. The City public park was a wonderful mix of trees and walking paths with some amazing “follies” - odd and artistic small buildings, built to entertain the eye.

The location of Taormina looking down to the coast is very beautiful. There was plenty to explore for a few days e.g. the Ancient Theatre, the beach at Isola Bella within walking distance or by cable car. For us the highlight was a visit to the hilltop village of Castelmola which provided fantastic views, including snow capped Mount Etna.
The main drawback of Taormina is the fact it is rather crowded even in late April when we visited. Also there are too many shops selling the same tourist tat.
Incredible property, right next to San Domenico luxury hotel featured in White Lotus but a fraction of the price. truly a home away from home, so well appointed with everything you would need if not eating out. Million dollar views across to Etna from the terrace and out to sea. Tranquil spot in Taormina but within easy walking access to great restaurants, parking, sight seeing spots, and cable car to Isola Bella. Our host was just charming- gave us so many tips on arrival and accessible throughout our stay. Already planning on coming back!
The entire stay was miserable. From the check in to stepping into the tiniest, pest invaded dirtiest room. Phones not working nor Wi-Fi. In general No requests could be accommodated , from a simple breakfast order to cleaning the room to fixing the phone. The pictures online definitely gives it more credit then in REal life. The staff was not friendly in solving any issues nor showed any interest in resolving any of my concerns. Worst “5 star” service and hotel ever visited.
The Hotel Villa Belvedere is in the city of Taormina and a stones throw from the Teatro Antico di Taormina and the botanical gardens. The hotel is simply beautiful with breathtaking views overlooking the sea and Mount Etna. We booked a 2 bedroom suite for a family of 4 which was luxurious and well equipped. The hotel staff were extremely helpful and nothing was too much trouble for them. There was parking at the hotel, albeit at an additional charge. A perfect holiday.
I liked the homey feel of hotel Natalina, it is very cozy and the staff are amazing & very helpful. They were very kid friendly and even helped with minding the kids, the location was perfect as well and if you are traveling with kids or older members it is very helpful to have the lift. I didn't find many options with a lift around that location so this was a big plus for us. Also the room was spotless clean much cleaner than in some 5 star hotels i have seen.
The staff is extremely careful about service. There is a family atmosphere in this hotel. The breakfast was great. The location is optimal : close to the mail touristic street, but easy to reach with a park. A parking is available (if booked in advance). So it solves the main problem with Taormina : coming with a car.
The view from the roof is magnificient. My room was very large. The view was pretty nice.
I will come back.
Great location in a quiet street overlooking the gulf of Taormina, but not far from the centre of the city. Restaurants and shops easily reachable.
The sea view from the room I booked is breathtaking. I lived sitting on the balcony and watch the sunrise, the sunset and everything in between. Even the bathroom has a window with sea view! The hotel ans the rooms are kept clean. The staff is friendly and helpful.
The hotel is at the excellent location, quite, everything you need for a cute trip to one of the most beautiful cities in Italy, Taormina. Our room was at the last floor and we had a very nice balcony with the great view. The bed is super comfortable and the room was immaculate. The owners are very friendly and nice, they will be at your disposal for whatever you need. Really a very pleasant stay! Thank you!!
Great location virtually on the beach. Breakfast was unexpected but a treat on a terrace looking out to sea. We were put in a fairly awful room on railway side of hotel - but were moved for the first three nights to the sea side: a huge game-changing difference which we appreciated! Overall a nice hotel but with a few touches could be made better.
Taormina a nice doable 25 min walk up the hill
The view from our room (24) was spectacular. This small hotel is a gem with very helpful staff, a beautiful courtyard that comes with a friendly dog and our room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast included the usual pastries plus eggs, yogurts, bacon and fruit. Coffee was delicious and made as ordered. The hotel is across the street from the bus station and well located within Taormina.
Excellent hotel location by the sea with room and balcony view out over the bay towards Italy in very distance.
Breakfast and dinner were great with plenty of choice and efficient and friendly staff service.
Reception friendly - organising taxis into Taormina.
Private beach with all facilities - beds, umbrellas, towels, life guards.
Expensive but worth it to relax and feel pampered!!
The hotel is placed in the city center, yet it is a quiet location. You may reach the central piazza in 2 minutes. We had a large room and terrace, with a lovely view over the main square and a glimpse of Etna. Very well trained staff, nice and polite at every interaction. Valet parking is available and it helps a lot in Taormina. Has a sky bar with various cocktails, wines etc
Absolutely stunning hotel. My favourite spot in Sicily. Hotel facilities and grounds were amazing. Staff were very nice and cleaners were very prompt. Our room seem to always be serviced when we returned to it no matter the time of day. Very comfortable beds. Cute balconies with sea views. Breakfast buffet and dinner at the restaurant was 5 star.
The staff were amazing. Gave us lots of information about finding our way around Taormina and were always kind and helpful. Breakfast was very good and filling. Rooms were clean. The hotel was located near the centre, within walking distance of all the restaurants and the Antico Teatro and Community gardens.
Quiet location but only a five minute walk to the town centre.
The staff are lovely people,who will run that extra mile to help you
Fantastic breakfast. Good pool and really good value for money..
We have stayed in eight different Taormina hotels and this is our second favourite.
Everything regarding our stay was perfect! Dawn and Massimo were fantastic hosts, so friendly and welcoming. They truly go above and beyond!! We enjoyed numerous conversations with them and all their suggestions regarding Taormina! 5 Stars
Beautiful gardens and a historic hotel building. The location made accessing Taormina’s town centre very easy. Lovely host who was very helpful. It was also great value for money. We loved our stay here.
Beautiful views from room balcony and breakfast venue! Very happy with staff and facilities...definitley recommend this hotel when you are visiting Taormina!
