We were kind of scared of this place based on the reviewes. HOWEVER this place was AMAZING. Great view, and perfect location. Service was outstanding. Balconies were great and breakfast was the best we had during 2 weeks of touring Italy. Pool was great and pool staf was very cool. Overall would highly recomed this hotel A+++++ The steps were... more

There are other reviews which will go into more detail than this, but why do I think that this is such an absoutely fabulous hotel: The staff at reception were helpful, knowlegable and provided one of the smoothest check in and check outs we've had. There was none of that last minute checking of the mini bar just to make... more

Lovely clean, comfortable and modern hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. Would recommend a stay here except for people with mobility problems as the approach is via steep incline. Resort is lovely although rather expensive. more

We stayed at the Monte Tauro for our 10 day honeymoon, and had a wonderful time. The hotel is very conveniently located - literally a 2 minute walk to the nearest bar/restaurant and around a 10 minute walk to the cable car/Greek Theatre. You are also near some other interesting sites, such as where part of the Godfather was fillmed... more

It really is a nice hotel with a perfect location, quiet due to its lying on a cliff hanging over the sea with stunning views, but also only a climb away from the city center of Taormina with lots of things to do outside the hotel. Breakfast is great, dinner a la carte is ok (plenty of other choises of... more

Stayed five nights in Junior Suite in July (booked early at considerable discount) . Beautiful, modern hotel, very comfortable room and beds, copious breakfast, fabulous pool and view, friendly and efficient service particularly at pool, free wired internet in room. Beware of steep climb up to main street Via Roma (not for the faint of leg) and very pricey laundary.... more

If you want somewhere which is close to the town centre but also set back from the hussle and bussle of the town centre then this hotel is for you. We have just returned from the Monte Tauro for our honeymoon on a bed and breakfast basis and were not disappointed from the time the porter collected our luggage from... more
