La Pensione Svizzera  

Excellent location to the action in Taormina. Our room had a balcony overlooking the sea which we loved.Bed was very comfortable. Sumptous breakfast set up in the outside breakfast room. Extremely helpful and welcoming staff.

The staff were very friendly.

The room was very small.

Great location and a very comfortable establishment. Views from upper floors are great and worth the effort. Great breakfast. Charming and helpful staff.

It was not a problem for me and my wife, however the establivhment has no lift. In the pice about what I liked about the place I did mention effort to get to the upper floors.

Good location - just outside Porta Messina and next to cable car for ldo mazzaro. Very helpful staff at reception who spoke English fluently. Very good breakfast with a good assortment, attention to detail and courteous attending staff. The optional reserved parking just outside the hotel was very convenient. Would definitely stay in this hotel if we had to come back.

Staff were very helpful, and the room was great and extremely clean. Lovely breakfast served overlooking the ocean from the hilltop. We even had an outside balcony with table and chairs, for that extra bit of space, as well as somewhere to put some of our handwashed clothes. Great to have access to a computer for public use. Also great location, as it was close to the bus terminal, the cable car that took you to the beach, and just at the begining of all the wonderful shops and restaurants.

Our room had very thin walls, as we could hear those in the adjoining room, and our room may have been next to their laundry, as we often heard lots of water in the pipes in the morning.

The hotel Penzione Svizzera was in a great location and was reasonably priced. The breakfast was really good. The rooms were not fancy, but they were very clean, and some have a very nice view of the sea. The very best aspect of this hotel are the owner and the concierge. They were very helpful and absolutely wonderful!!!!! Made you feel like family! I definitely recommend this hotel if you wish to stay in the city of Taormina.

Our stay at La Pensione Svizzera was very pleasurable due to the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. From the reception staff to the lady that served us our morning coffee, the night porter, the cleaning ladies, every member of staff were a delight to meet and they couldn’t do enough for us. The hotel was kept to a very high standard of cleanliness and was warmly decorated creating a relaxed atmosphere. Our room was of standard size but was well laid out and attended to on a daily basis. The only note of caution I would give is, if your travelling by car make sure to book your parking spot as parking in Toarmina in non-existent.

It was ideally located for our short visit to Toarmina. It was a nice small quiet hotel.

It had no lift so we had to carry our suitcases up three flights of stairs. Luckly we were fit enough for the task !

All staff were genuinely friendly and very helpful. a wonderful experience and location.

It's an excellent hotel at the most perfect location if you don't have a car. It is just meters away from Taormina bus terminal, so you can walk there - even with a lot of luggage - in no time, you can also check bus departures easily if you plan to visit other attractions in Sicily or if you plan to take the bus to the airport. Even though it is close to the buses, and a busy road its a beautiful historic building looking over the sea with a garden for 'romantic breakfasts'. It takes 3 minutes to walk to the Corso. It takes 30 seconds to walk to the cableway next door, which takes you right to the beach (15 minutes in worst case, but usually 10) so even your trip to the beach is fun.

It was a bit noisy during the night, the small road behind the hotel has some traffic, and if you sleep with windows open (which is likely in Sicily in the summer) this can be a minor issue of comfort. The rooms have aircondition (with 'silent mode') though.

very nice location very close to the main center.

The hotel is located in the city center, with an easy access to the beach (Isola Bella) by cable car. If you want to have a very rich and various breakfast with an amazing view to the bay, I reccommend this place. :-) Also, the staff was very kind and helpful. I am 100% satisfied with the location and the hotel's services.

Small charming hotel, well located. Good staff. Great breakfast. Wifi complimentary. Highly recommended.

No lift
