We had a week here in May 2012 as the first charter flights arrived from UK. The setting, views, and facilities were excellent. The staff were really helpful and friendly. The breakfast in the dining room with a view over the bay, and up to Mt Etna was superb. From the front door it is a short steep climb to... More

The rooms ar clean and spacios, excellent views prevail throughout the hotel, and it is extremely well located, close to the Via Corso, and the many Restaurants and Bars close... More

Since this was a group trip, end of March off season, this wonderful hotel was within our budget. With beautiful, sunny spring weather, some members of my group of 44, were so in love with the views from their large verandas, that they chose to spend a good part of their day enjoying it with lunch from room service and...

We stayed at the Monte Tauro in May 2011. The hotel is in a good location, right in the centre of town. The views from the hotel are wonderful and the pool and pool area are very well maintained and always exceptionally clean. The rooms in the hotel were modern and comfortable and cleaned every day. Breakfast was great with... More

A great trip to Taormina and the Monte Tauro Hotel. Hotel location is A1 - 5 mins from the centre of the town and a wonderful view. You are clearly paying significantly for this privilege!! Hotel was very pleasant, staff very friendly, although the exterior of the hotel is a bit of a concrete monstrosity and carefully not shown on... More

I stayed a week with my best friend Diana. We were thrilled with everything: the room, the interior design, the pool, breakfast. The VIEW and LOCATION in precious Taormina is unbeatable. Highly recommended.

Beautiful hotel in Taormina only a couple of blocks from the center of town. POSITIVES: excellent food (breakfast and dinner; for dinner, the chicken was exceptional - some of the best chicken we have ever eaten); good service; fantastic views; non-smoking hotel; parking on-site; newer building NEGATIVES: even though it is only four blocks from the center of town, it...

This hotel is fabulously located overlooking the Ionian Sea and because it is literally perched in a ravine is laid out in an unconventional way that really bamboozled my wife who couldn't get used to the reception, lounge, restaurant and bar being above the bedrooms and the pool below them. Neither did she warm to the vertiginous lift that projects... More

The steep drive has been done to death – we (fairly fit late fifties) found it okay. It’s actually the top part of a path that goes all the way down to the coast. Our taxi dropped us at the top and the driver must have rung the bell since the porter arrived in the blink of an eye and... More
