- Taormina, Italy
Steeped in a history that once welcomed Picasso, Hemingway, and Roald Dahl, Casa Cuseni is a lovingly preserved Sicilian villa where spacious rooms with sweeping views of Mount Etna, attentive staff who treat guests as family, and gardens of extraordinary beauty combine to create something far closer to a private home than a hotel.
- Taormina, Italy
A beautifully converted old villa set just off the Corso Umberto, Hotel Villa Taormina wins hearts through its attentive, white-glove staff, Paolo, Elena, Claudia, and Antonino among them, a rooftop breakfast of homemade baked goods, local cheeses, and views stretching to Etna and the sea, charming hallways and sitting areas that give the place a boutique, almost familial warmth, and a peaceful pool that somehow coexists with being mere steps from the centre of Taormina.
- Taormina, Italy
Perched within a historic building right on Taormina's Corso Umberto, with airy rooms, light-filled balconies, antique furnishings, and a host named Riccardo who welcomes guests with chilled local wine, almond pastries, and morning coffee, Casa Pancrazia earns its devoted returning visitors through warmth and thoughtful attention that feels thoroughly, unmistakably Sicilian.
- Taormina, Italy
Tucked just 80 metres from Taormina's Cathedral, this art deco villa charms with beautifully appointed rooms, shaded citrus-tree patios, shared terraces commanding views of both Mount Etna and the sparkling Sicilian coast, and the warmly attentive Josephine, whose local dining tips and personal kindness leave guests feeling far better looked after than the modest price would suggest.
- Taormina, Italy
Perched just a short stroll from Taormina's centre, this charming pensione wins hearts with its attentive, warm-spirited staff, Mario and Antonella foremost among them, a generous, freshly made breakfast served on a panoramic terrace overlooking the bay, spotlessly kept rooms with breathtaking sea views, and a quiet, well-placed setting that makes every guest feel thoroughly looked after.
- Taormina, Italy
Tucked into a well-kept 19th-century villa a short stroll from Taormina's main street, Villa Astoria charms with sea-view rooms, a cool courtyard, attentive and warmly familial staff, a daily breakfast, and the added delight of Lucy the hotel cat padding about to greet guests.
- Taormina, Italy
Positive Italian guests paint a picture of a gracefully restored baroque villa where sumptuously furnished empire-style rooms with marble bathrooms open onto sweeping sea views, a tranquil pool seemingly all to oneself, and a varied Sicilian breakfast buffet are matched by a warmly attentive reception team, though at least one English-speaking party endured a deeply frustrating stay without hot water or meaningful assistance.
- Taormina, Italy
The hotel trades on its splendid hilltop position and terrace views, with some guests praising the attractive rooms and considerate service, though dated décor and inconsistent hospitality undermine any warmth of character.
