Luxury hotels and resorts

Das Hotel liegt fantastisch, die Zimmer sehr gut ausgestattet, nur das Restaurant hat seine Mängel. Zuerst mal hatten wir innerhalb 3 Abendessen immer das selbe Menü- keine Abwechslung bei den Gerichten. Das Menü war für seine Leistung zu teuer und aus diesem Grunde war das Restaurant auch eher schlecht besucht. Das sollte dringend geändert werden, denn vergleichbare Hotels haben eine bessere Küche. Genauso das Frühstück: In wunderbarer Lage liegt der Frühstücksraum, aber die Auswahl für solch ein 5 Sterne Hotel ist dürftig! Kalter Schweinebraten mit ein wenig Schinken ist einfach zuwenig. Kräuterquark oder Fisch haben wir sehr vermisst, genauso Vollkornbrot oder mindestens dunkles Brot! Insgesamt waren wir zufrieden, werden dieses Hotel aber unseren Freunden nicht weiterempfehlen.

This is a beautiful hotel with a courteous and helpful staff. Breakfast was great as was the lunch buffet (although if you want more of anything there is an extra charge, so it's not really a buffet). Our room was spacious and well-appointed with a limited view of the bay.

Struttura ottima, grandi spazi per un soggiorno prettamente estivo. Possibilità di visitare Taormina, Gole dell'Alcantera, Etna (piano Provenzano mt. 1800 ), Bronte ( gustosissimi dolci di pistacchio ). Penso che ritornerò in estate con le mie nipoti.

The Luxury Residence at Taormina is of a truly exceptional standard . . .everything has been put together with ultimate comfort in mind. The location is fantastic, possibly not great for those with mobility problems but for even an average level of fitness, the short trot up to the lift to the top of the village was an enjoyable way of earning one's lunch or dinner! The layout of the apartments and the extent of the vast terraces offers maximum privacy whilst the beautiful solarium area offers the opportunity to be more sociable with fellow guests - children to play and interact etc. Francesco is a particularly accommodating host - he gives a 5 star and very individual and hands on service. Things like beds, furnishings, kitchen wear, hot water etc are all tip top here. If you are dawdling over a booking here . . .I'd say 'go for it' . . .you wont regret it. I work for a company who operates high end lettings in the UK - and I was more than impressed. We will be back.
