Top Porta Messina Hotel Reviews

Hotel Bel Soggiorno

10/10 Excellent

"What a beautiful place to stay. The view from outside our room was spectacular. Mt Etna was active and we had the perfect viewing spot. This is a classic old hotel in a gorgeous setting with a warm, friendly, helpful staff. There was a delicious breakfast on a beautiful terrace. The location is close to town, but far enough away to enjoy the setting without the crowds. Restaurants were close and so were all the places we wanted to visit. The shuttle to the beach was fantastic. We would definitely stay here again."

Villa Angela

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel with eye catching views. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The hotel shuttle to Taormina was very helpful. We had a great time at this hotel."

Hotel La Pensione Svizzera

10/10 Excellent

"Great location in Taormina. Away from the heavily touristy area, but a close walk away. Beautiful old hotel with incredible breakfasts and a staff that can't be beat. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there again. It's an old hotel so the room and shower were small."

NH Collection Taormina

8/10 Good

"It is a beautiful hotel, very well located near Corso Umberto. The staff is great and diligent. The breakfast is also amazing. If you land a good deal, go for it. I cannot recommend it at the price point I paid."

Splendid Hotel Taormina - Handwritten Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely loved my stay! The staff was friendly and helpful! Raul greeted us at midnight and immediately made us feel welcome! Great location and amenities! Breakfast amazing! Highly recommend!! It’s the perfect location right outside the Main Street and feels like a little haven. Would stay again!"

Taormina Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was great and very clean. However, the breakfast experience was disappointing. We were told breakfast was available until 11:00 a.m., but the woman in charge rudely told us they are closed at 10:15 a.m. Hope this will be addressed because its so disappointing."

Mazzarò Sea Palace - The Leading Hotels of the World

8/10 Good

"Most of the staff was excellent. Hotel needs to identify their guests as the beach is public. Hotel was extremely clean. Breakfast was very good. Beach was very rocky. No sand, all tiny rocks and large rocks in the swimming area. Beach chairs were comfortable. Very pricey area of Sicily."

Taormina Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Overall, wonderful experience. Perfect location with nice view. Very kind staffs."

Hotel Sirius

8/10 Good

"Staff was delightful. Our balcony room was beautiful overlooking pool and ocean view. Only reason for 4 stars was the extremely hard bed that was very uncomfortable and hard pillows. Would not stay here again only because of the hard mattress. Self serve espresso machine like at other hotels and fresh juice would’ve made breakfast exceptional. If you don’t care about a very hard mattress this hotel is great in a fantastic location."
