Grand Hotel MiramareVia Guardiola Vecchia 27, 98039 Taormina (Show map) Very good, Score from 53 reviews“enjoyed our room and view of sea andseaside mountain”
William,
Midland, Texas
Positioned just 440 yards from the center of Taormina, this hotel is a great starting point for exploring small streets full of charm and tradition, as well as numerous monuments. The old villa is set within a verdant park and offers a spectacular view of the Messina Straight and Calabria. The hotel is located in close proximity to Taormina Beach, which is accessible via the nearby cable-way and bus service. Moreover, a wide selection of excursions and wine and food packages are available on request. Why not start your day by walking to the splendid Greek theater with its breathtaking panorama over Naxos bay and Etna and a calendar full of shows? When you are not exploring, relax on a deck chair by the swimming pool or enjoy a game of tennis on one of the hotel’s courts. End the day by watching the sunset from the panoramic bar and restaurant. Hotel Rooms: 68, Hotel Chain: Angala Hotels.

The location is incredible, with beautiful views and ideally located just outside the town. The room was very spacious and comfortable and the breakfast was one of the best I have gotten in a hotel. I think the highlight was the swimming pool, which is in a beautiful spot and it is easy to spend so much time there just relaxing. Staff were also excellent.

The hotel has a lovely view over the coast, it is convenient for walking into the centre of town, staff were friendly and the buffet breakfast was good. The bathrooms need updating and strangely the plastic thermos jugs in which coffee was served at breakfast all had badly damaged spouts (to the point of being unhygienic). When I took this up with the receptionist on departure, I was told that there were many things that needed replacing, i.e. it wasn't considered to be particularly important. Wifi internet service was only available in the ground floor lobby.

The room was big and very nice, but the main amazing thing was the view, it was just amazing. Otherwise a real old school Grand Hotel with. The staff was a bit unfriendly and the bathroom could have been cleaner.

You can park in the hotel, and the swimming pool is nice The room needs to be refurbished urgently: specially the wc (that's not a 4 star hotel!) When trying to sleep, there are annoying noises from other guests, people in the corridor, wc, etc. We were hosted in a room without seeing the sea but a dark ground floor room to the service area. Either if you want to go to the centre or to the beach you need to walk up the hill for 700 km

Our room had a very large balcony with an excellent view. The location of the hotel was close to the parking and funivia and not far from city center.

The Miramare has a great location and has the most beautiful views. Its charm is that its original grandness is slightly jaded but overall it offers great value and a feel of real sicily. We had a delightful stay and would recommend the hotel. Sound proofing and quieter plumbing.

The staff at reception were at best monosyllabic and at worst very rude. The staff in the breakfast room, however, were very kind and helpful, even when often late for breakfast. The room was clean and large, with a small balcony and stunning view but for the price the bathroom was dated, tatty and not really in line with the standard of the rest of the hotel. The actually water system seriously needs sorting out as the entire hotel must have been woken up every time you flush the loo. The worst thing, though, was the completely unfriendly and rude reception staff who left me feeling quite depressed at the end of the holiday.

The hotel staff went out of their way to be so helpful..and I will stay there again for sure. The only thing I did not like were the bathroom showers that were a bit flimsy. Other than that the location was perfect.

It was really close to the bus terminal, namely on the other side of the street. So once getting of the bus you could easily arrive to the hotel by walking with all the baggage we had. The Pool was just great surrounded by all the floors and trees on the mountain, though we used it only once since the sea was to prefere for us. We got a sweet even if we had booked a standard room because they were out of rooms so that was very good for us because we got a much bigger room with a great view (all the rooms have a great sea view by the way). the staff were very kindly and helpful. The breakfast was good as well. the walking distance to the city center was about 5-10 min, very close. not really.

Bel hotel con vista impressionante sul mare. Staff molto cordiale che fa quello che serve per rendere il soggiorno piacevole. Bel sala con vista panoramica per colazione, e terrazzo al aperto con vista mare. Giardino e piscina, ancora con vista mare! Hotel con aspetto rinnovato. Camera (standard) piccola ma piacevole e comoda. Torneremo. I bagni potrebbero essere rifatti (ma niente di disturbante).

Zeer prettig, schoon hotel, vriendelijk personeel. Prachtig gelegen. De bedden zijn veel en veel te hard. De douche is erg klein en ouderwets, met een douchegordijn en een rekje dat de bewegingsvrijheid belemmerde en waaraan ik een blauwe plek heb overgehouden. Badkamer in zijn geheel prima, behalve dus die douche.

Nous avions choisi cet hôtel comme le meilleur rapport qualité/prix des hôtels de Taormine. Notre choix s'est avéré judicieux puisqu'à courte distance de la ville avec une vue sur détroit de Messine (pas d'Etna). Personnel parlant Français très accueillant et prestations de bons niveaux malgré un prix trop élevé mais dans le marché à Taormine. A noter un excellent petit déjeuner (le meilleur de notre séjour). Compte tenu du prix des chambres, nous attendions un peu plus de modernise et surtout une salle de bain digne de ce nom, pas de baignoire et une douche "minable" (dommage)

Elegante e pulito, confortevole e accogliente, in buona posizione per tutte le esigenze dei turisti. Gustosa e piacevole la colazione, variegata e abbondante di prodotti anche genuini. Il bagno necessiterebbe di ristrutturazione.

A hotel közel van a belvároshoz, és a buszpályaudvarhoz. A szobák többségéből szép kilátás nyílik a tengerre, a lakosztályok tiszták. A személyzet kimért volt, nem voltak kedvesek.
