Pros: The staff were very helpful, the breakfast service was excellent and the room with its balcony and comforts was superb. We had a nasty driver to Etna and the hotel made up for it.

Pros: Only stayed one night but wish we had stayed longer.. lovely apartment just down the road from the hotel.. we were very comfortable and used the pool and had a delicious lunch there. The staff were really helpful and let us stay in our room until noon as our flight wasn't until the afternoon.

Pros: We stayed in the recently opened rock garden suite, this is absolutely worth a stay. We stayed 2 nights and enjoyed it very much. It is very modern, fresh, brand new and kind of built in a rock, the rock suits are 30 a seconds walk away from the hotel but you can use all facilities from the hotel. We booked a normal room but got an upgrade and we felt really lucky afterwards. Overall the hotel is nice, it has a nice taste of style but you can't compare a normal room inside of the hotel to the new opened rock suits. Both are completly different. The pool is nice and the breakfast is great. The staff is incredibly friendly, and it's great you don't have to look after your car in the narrow streets of Taormina. The hotel takes care of everything

Pros: Beautiful building, nice staff and a lovely pool, terrace and view! We loved the multiple seating areas where you could socialize or chill, read a book and order a beverage (we went for one of the cheaper rooms without view, terrace or balcony). The location was excellent and we were able to park on one of their parking spots. Everything was walkable. Super comfy bed, big bathroom, and the breakfast was also very good!

Cons: Airconditioning and (I guess) smoke detector device give quite some default light when you darken the room and the detector keeps flashing during the whole night, next to the bed. A sticker on them would maybe be nice.

Pros: Absolutely loved the dinner we had at the restaurant. The food was great, the chef superb and the view unbelievable. We could see Mt. Etna flaring up every once in a while- it was like a private light show.
Cons: The hotel was difficult to find, even with a GPS (we entered Tomasso Fazzelo as the street however that street is blocked). Fortunately, a stranger on a motorcycle led us to the parking area, but then we had to move our vehicle before staff could arrive to help, as we were blocking the street. We ended up calling the front desk from our new location down the hill and staff came out and took care of everything for us (drove us to our parking spot).

Pros: I stayed with my boyfriend at the NH Collection Taormina for 5 nights. Our stay was amazing from the beginning, they upgraded our room and so we had an amazing view and balcony. The location was perfect, only half a minutes walk from Curso Umberto (the main street), Porto Messina and not a long walk to Isola Bella. The rooms were very clean and the staff was so friendly and helpful with their recommendations. The breakfast is amazing with a huge variety of eggs, pastries, fruit, juices and more. Taormina is such a beautiful place and the NH hotel definitely made our stay even better!

Cons: Not very well insulated; you could hear doors banging, furniture being moved, housekeeping, etc. It was difficult to get a good night's sleep. The a/a didn't work one night but the reception called the engineer who fixed it. Room in need of a refresh. I didn't get my wake-up call as requested.

Pros: Property has great location just off the pedestrian path right by the Porta Catania. It’s close to the public parking.
Cons: I didn’t sleep a wink, since the water pump makes a grinding sound All Night Long. Rooms were tiny and breakfast was average. The room was poorly maintained - clearly the ceiling had leaked as there were water stains down the wall and ceiling puckered, plus bathroom hooks/shelves were almost falling off the wall. Towels ratty and ripped. And for a “design hotel” the design was terrible - shower door was on the wrong way so that it opened inwards, meaning that you have to squeeze into the shower (good luck if you are fat!)

Pros: We couldn't have been happier with our stay. The staff were extremely helpful with suggestions. The hotel with it's cave to the pool and beach were very special. We decided to stay on grounds rather than go to Isola Bella because it was almost the same, except our beach was private and came with beach chairs, umbrella and bar. A shuttle bus was provided to take us into the main town which we thought was a very nice perk. Though a bit pricey, we felt we would do it again because Unahotels Capotaormina is part of the experience and well worth it!

Pros: The spa room was large with a beautiful view and an amazing terrace. Modern facilities in a historical building. It was a perfect location in the centre of one of the busiest pedestrian only streets in Taormina with easy access to restaurants and historical sites. The hotel provided a romantic and tranquil place to retreat at the end of a busy day. The staff was very helpful in recommending some excellent local restaurants as well in helping to organize experiences based on your personal preferences. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.

Pros: Location perfect. Walk out front door of hotel and you are on the Corso Umberto--the main street filled with shops and restaurants. Sea view from room, pool and restaurants gorgeous. Patio off of room spacious. Staff friendly and helpful. Enjoyed included breakfast overlooking the sea serving delicious fresh fruit, pastry, eggs to order, etc. We appreciated elevators to get to different levels of hotel.
Cons: The hotel needs some TLC--a little run down. Room was just okay. Lighting in bathroom horrible--couldn't see anything it was so dark. Missed a full length mirror in the room. Shower head allowed super hard "stream" of water to pound down on you. Could not get second key for our room. Expected more for what we paid for the room.

Shower was difficult to useit is small.Staff at reception is helpful and kind, also at the baech, but some of waitres at restaurant are terrible, especially younger personal ( a russian looking man with big stomach is awfull, some of Italian young ladies also) . Food is complete disaster, also for breakfast, even more for dinner. Restaurant is the best to avoid, you pay a lot, for nothing. Other things at hotel are more or less ok.

Also, it's very easy to arrive here from the airport, since the bus station is very very close to the hotel. It has a great view, the garden and pool area are well maintained.

Pros:
Cons: Total deception! We were on a 30th anniversary trip, and this hotel is decadent, everything outdated and cheap. Location is not good, close to the bus terminal. I did not expect it to be a "all included" style hotel, full of TUI excursion people. You really feel like cattle. Knowing now well the city, there any tons of other choices for the price I paid. definitively do not recomend

Also, it's very easy to arrive here from the airport, since the bus station is very very close to the hotel. It has a great view, the garden and pool area are well maintained.
Cons: The beds were not very comfortable, Breakfast- same every day, The hotel looks better on the inside than on the outside (oldish but clean and well maintained);

Cons: We were on a lower level, so to walk to other parts of hotel, we had to walk up a very steep incline. I have a slight heart condition which put a lot of pressure on my heart. The staff allowed me to use a service elevator which helped immensely

Pros: close to the old city the restorant in the hotel its goog allso the bar there is a piano player good staff
Cons: the rooms the beds at the hotel Poor maintenance

Pros: The hotel was over a number of levels with amazing views to the sea and to Mount Etna (and a lift!). The swimming pool on the top terrace was in a lovely garden setting with great views also and the terrace on the first floor where you could have breakfast was lovely. The hotel was very clean and the staff very attentive, helpful and friendly. Very well run, professional and organised. The return shuttle for 6 euros from the hotel to their sister hotel by the beach with sunbeds and umbrellas was a really good option to have. It was a good location as at edge of old town, so easy to walk into town but felt like you had got away from it all when back at the hotel. Bus stop right outside to go upto the lovely village at the top of the hill behind hotel. We had standard rooms but they had a sea view or a view of Etna which was unexpected.

Cons: There isn't much insulation between the rooms horizontally in the floors, so you can hear people in the room above, people walking round, moving furniture and in the bathroom, toilets flushing, water being run - it depends on the people in the room above, as when swapped rooms it wasn't as bad at all, so just unlucky with the people above in the first room, although the bathroom noise was the same.

Pros: Lovely brekky to eat just overlooking the courtyard, view and pool, the most peaceful place I stayed on this trip to Sicily. The pool was perfect, made my stay so much more relaxing to be able to have a dip in the morning or afternoon! Gorgeous location next to everything and especially a lovely park 2 minutes walk away. Really helpful receptionist Giuseppe made my stay very smooth and helped me with everything I needed. Love the old details of the hotels architecture and interior design and the way spa and all the things you need for the pool and so on are included.

3.8 Mediocre
Pros: The view, the location and being able to park our car there although we had to pay an extra 15 euros per night for that.
Cons: This hotel is very shabby and rundown. The air conditioner in our room was an old clunker that was so noisy, we couldn't use it. It was over 30 degrees and there were mosquitoes so having to leave the window open for air wasn't great. We were in a "deluxe/superior" room but only given one pillow each, one roll of toilet paper and one very tiny piece of soap to use for three days and the shower hook was broken. They came by to make up our room in the middle of the afternoon when people typically are taking a break before dinner and never bothered to come back again when they found our room occupied which they should have been aware of as all keys are left at the front desk when you leave your rooms. When we tried to check out early to catch a ferry (even though the front desk was open 24/7) we had to go down to the kitchen to find the desk clerk. This was a beautiful hotel at one point in time but it has been sadly neglected. The paint was peeling, rips in the fabric, dead flowers in the pots on the balcony, sconces almost falling off the walls. This is definitely not a four star hotel and not worth the nightly rate we were charged.
8.3 Excellent
Pros: I liked the location of the hotel, the staff was amazing, very kind and helpful. Breakfast area was fantastic ! My junior suit had sea view with marvelous decoration.
Cons: I didn’t like the room on my arrival but the manager has upgraded me with a small extra payment The elevator to the pool was off and the safety box was not installed in the closet. This hotel could be the diamond of Taormina as its location is unique and everything inside painting s, furniture , wall papers, doors , floors , tiles and marbles are madeof high value materials.
6.3 Good
Pros: Location was perfect. The staff were most helpful, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Comfortable beds and plenty of hot water and clean towels and linen.
Cons: Parts of the hotel needs updating, our first room wasn’t acceptable so they moved us to a better room. Needs more staff as the current staff were multi tasking. Pool didn’t look clean and the lift down to it wasn’t working either. Pool bar closed as was the gym. It could be a fabulous hotel but it’s splendour has faded.
4.2 Okay
Pros: Only the position and the amazing view on the bay
Cons: Great potential but the structure had old, ruined furniture, much of those rusty and dirty with ants. Very narrow spaces in the room and the air conditioning was leaking water from the ceiling. The breakfast has nothing to do with the Sicilian gastronomic delights and it was really a pity

3.8 Mediocre
Pros: Location
Cons: First of all the rudeness of the staff, very unprofessional, both owner and employees. We waited at the reception upon arrival without being welcomed at all. There were no towels in the room and had to wait for the laundry service to deliver some later... The place was messy and the staff unorganized. The elevator to the pool are not working and no service at the pool whatsoever. To sum up, worst hospitality ever for a so-called 4stars establishment.
5.0 Okay
Pros: Location, view, breakfast, pool, staff
Cons: Outdated room furniture & bathroom, linen, TV, lack of free socket plugs.
5.4 Okay
Pros: Super Location and great views from the hotel. Lovely old baroque hotel - this was part of the problem ! Daisy at Reception was supreb and tried her best to solve issues we had.
Cons: This is not a 4 star hotel - Facilities and hotel in general in need to refurbishment and rejuvenation. Staff we minimal and service was not what I expected - not value for money. We did get upgrade (booking.com on line spec was for junior suite - with details from a full suite). The room was therefore too small when we arrived - Daisy to secure an update to Full suite (after 3 days) but experience lets a bitter taste. I am not sure what the plans are for the hole - this old lady needs work and more attention to detail - could be a jewel at some point in years
5.0 Okay
Pros: The location and staff are great.
Cons: Everything needs a major upgrade. The shower flooded the bathroom, the shower door fell off its tracks. It smelled of mold whenever the air conditioner was turned on...and really it smelled all the time. The breakfast was subpar. I would not recommend this hotel.
