I loved the view from the terrace of the hotel, the dinner was served outdoors if weather was good. They prepared vegetarian food on request (just have to tell them at breakfast). They come around at breakfast and ask everybody to choose from 2 choices for main dish. Good location, close to the Corso (main "high street"/shopping road). Friendly staff,... more

This is a very well located hotel in Taormina. Near the centre. There is not much of a view from the room we had but the views from the large terrace are stunning. The staff were extremely helpful. Most of them can communicate in English. We enjoyed our stay here and will surely look for this hotel for future stays.... more

Friendly hotel, rather dated but well located in a residential area near the cathedral. Unfortunately we must have got the tiniest room in all Sicily, with two single beds pushed together and just about enough space to walk around. Oh well, at least it was bright and airy, with a little balcony affording a partial side sea view. The bathroom... more

After shower or bath, the room gets flooded.Our group of 28 people had a uniform view that this is a dump with nice people. It badly needs... more

The hotel was lovely. It was simple but very very clean. The rooms are a great size with air conditioning. The shower... more

Just returned from the Hotel Continental. Was a little concerned after reading some reviews but have to say was not disappointed in the least. The hotel is set back from the Corso Umberto (up several flights of steps, but then everything is in Taormina!!). It is certainly not a place to go if you are not fit and active. The... more

The hotel is fairly hidden away, high up in the hills. A short walk on to the principal high street of Taormina and although a 15min walk to the cable cars(3 Euro rtn)which take you to the nearest beach, the hotel was a decent choice. The room is cleaned everyday to a high standard and the staff really go out... more

Me and my Partner have just returned from The Continental Hotel, we both can,t fault it, it was actually much better than i expected. The location is excellent, but if you have walking difficultys, i would not recommend it. We were half board, the breakfast was nice, fresh juices, good selection of fruit, cold meats, cheese and pastries, and the... more
