Amazing view - if stairs are not a problem for you
This property should note for everybody STAIRS STAIRS STAIRS everywhere and all the time! For people who are not well-moveable absolutely unsuitable accommodation :( For others - amazing view from every room :)) Also there is problem with parking. So this property should not announce that there is parking available. It is not true for everybody. We came in winter and heating was not working, so there was very cold in a room.

Amazing stay at villa Greta! You can see all!
Amazing location. Although difficult to reach close to the top of the mountain, on the way to Castelmola, has wonderful rooms with terrace and nice view. It is not you regular hotel. Built in a rock it's a hilly hotel! But great! Nice buffet Italian breakfast! all rooms very clean, good TV and powerful reliable WiFi!

Beautiful place. Hotel was great. My only 2 complaints were that water in the shower didn't get hot,just lukewarm, and the bed was hard/uncomfortable. The view from the window was great. Hotel staff excellent. Safe area but have to walk up steep hill, stairs to get to hotel and room.

Cute with amazing views, but low grill
The hotel room was very lovely, clean and modern with of course amazing views over Etna. We were greeted nicely to the hotel. Please note that unless you plan on taking a lot of taxis, and are less mobile, the hotel is only accessible via some very steep stairs from the town. What let the hotel down for us was the complete lack of sound insulation between rooms. Wearing headphones at 1am trying to block out noisy neighbours ruined the experience for us. However the place is a good price and could suit people not bothered by this sort of thing!

Sweet hotel and lovely room with views
The hotel staff were lovely and helpful and directed us to Taormina Centre very clearly. For those who have difficulty using stairs, it would be wise if they spoke to hotel staff directly to see if they can be offered easier access

Generally nice hotel
Generally nice hotel. Rooms were very clean. Most with their own terraces / balconies with excellent views of the bay and Mt Etna. Breakfast basic but nice. Hotel is situated at the top of the hill so it is a bit of a climb up and down to the town. Bar and restaurant quite expensive - would have been more likely to stay there in the evening for meal/drinks if more reasonably priced. Better value drinks and food in the town. Had requested a taxi to take us to the train station for 7am - this was booked by a member of staff the night before. Unfortunately the taxi did not arrive and we missed our train. This was most likely the fault of the taxi company but no-one was around in the hotel at that time to help us find another and we ended up walking with our bags down the hill to the station.

A Lovely stay which offers and easy 10 minute walk to central Taormina alternatively take a bus outside your door, or up to Castelmola. Morning breakfast offers lovely relaxed service with very friendly staff and the restaurant offers some traditional culinary delights. overall we had a fabulous stay in Taormina and highly recommend anyone to stay here.

not unless you are super fit
Hotel owner ok but female reception staff very unfriendly and rather abrupt. This hotel has so many steps to get to reception and rooms ( around 50 from top entrance). plus to get to the hotel one has to walk uphill for about 1 KM some rather steep roads and steps. It is not for the elderly , young families or normal people. The rooms are very basic.The breakfast is basic and same. If you eat meat then you will be eating with the wasps who get to the sliced ham before you. The staff seem indifferent to this.All in all not one I would stay at again or recommend to any of my friends.

Hotel overlooks mt Etna and the coast, very beautiful. Should also do dinner at the hotel dining area for a night coz it is so romantic to watch the sunset. Have the mussel pot, delicious! Only downside is u hv to climb up and down daily (abt 15min) to get to the main plaza and it is quite a distance to walk to the bus station even with the shortcut (I got lost!)

The hotel is quite good. What you would expect from a 2-star I guess (since we've never been to a 2-star I cannot compare with others). Breakfast is scarce as what they give you is what you have to eat. No choice, which was quite a disappointment.

stay some-were else
The hotel is up on the hill about 15 mins walk up hill and a load of steps when you get to the hotel, so if you have a bags need a taxi up and down to town which will cost about €20. The bed' are fold out bed and very uncomfortable we had a double which was 2 pushed togther but on my side under the mattress was 2 planks of would were the spring had broke on the bed. Nice view of town and etna but not wort the hassle of hill and bad bed also the toilet smelled of urine all the time which could be just the heat and drains etc.. If you are looking for cheap one night maby but other wise stay somewere else
