Castles in Sicily

"Beautiful hotel in a wonderful location."

"Loved the property and staff was friendly and first rate "

"We loved this hotel -- the location is perfect and the staff couldn't be more helpful and lovely. The AC is strong and the facilities are well maintained. The included breakfast is comprehensive and delicious!! Shoutout to Sabrina at the front desk who was extra helpful to us when trying to get our car at an unusual time."

"Some walls were scuffed and marked. "

"This past visit July 2025 will mark our third consecutive summer stay at this gem of a hotel. We continue to enjoy the spacious accommodations and friendly staff. Like a sightly faded beauty, this 50 something year old hotel certainly can use an update , and we have been advised that is in progress. However you cannot beat the spaciousness and slightly faded grandeur of this beautiful property. The hotel is situated on what I believe to be one the ‘most’ gorgeous and picturesque of the entire Taormina area. The private grotto beach and pool areas are spectacular as is the view of Mount Etna from the buffet breakfast terrace. "

"We had such a great stay here. The room was so stylish and comfortable, and the staff were so helpful in showing us how to get around Palermo. Everywhere we wanted to go was in 20-30 mins walking distance which was perfect. Thanks to Fillipo who got in touch before our stay via WhatsApp and book us transport from the airport which was super helpful. "
