天狼星酒店

Lovely hotel centrally located near the bus station. Accessible to Corso Umberto and cable car. Great ocean view and pool.

The property is dated. There are not enough outlets in the room to charge a couple of phones and tablets. Walls are thin and you can hear the neighbors. There are many, many stairs and steps, so if you have mobility issues, be aware. Do not eat in the restaurant. It is horrible. However, the view is spectacular, the pool is huge and the staff is friendly. Breakfast is okay so long as you stay away from the very cold scrambled eggs, sausage and bacon.

Excellent hotel with a good b’fast, pool with beautiful views overlooking the sea and the hills. The sunrise was simply breathtaking. Staff were very willing to help. Best wishes!

The hotel was lovely and the front desk was very helpful. I did not feel very special though. I think we had the worst room the hotel had and there was no room upgrade even though it was not at full capacity. I went to breakfast and my daughter came a little later. One of the servers was quite rude and said I could not order coffee twice and spoke quite loudly about it. Others thought it was very rude as well.

The hotel is in a great location for walking to shops and restaurants in Taormina. The bus depot to take to Castelmola or any other town for a day trip is a 2 minute walk. The cable cars to take you down to the beach is less than a 5 minute walk. The hotels is perched on a hotel with spectacular views from all of their terraces. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The only negative was that they don't have a restaurant in the hotel (but they do have breakfast which is great). I would definitely go back to this hotel.
