great view from our outdoor balcony, our breakfast would be served on our own outdoor table. at night we would sit with a bottle of wine and look at across the ocean. very romantic. our room had a upstairs lounge room which i ended up using to sleep after a few days because the bed was so hard. warning- the bed heads arent attached to the bed so you hear a lot of banging from the rooms. the shower was disapointing because the hose had a bend in it and would only work as a handheld, which was hard when washing hair. if replaced bathroom was great had a bath which was rare in our travels in italy. lots of stairs to climb while in the area so it keeps you fit. if you go to mt etna, take gloves it is freezing! hotel has great views and is very relaxing, would stay again.

This hotel is loaded with that faded old world charm. We had a fantastic room (no 23) which shared a large panoramic terrace with rooms 22 & 24. Room was cool, spacious & simply furnished. Loved the little window in the bathroom with a seaview. Great shower - not a hand held! A rare treat in Italy. All that said, we are not sure if many of the reception staff really enjoy the hospitality industry? Sebastian who worked at breakfast compensated as he was entirely accomodating & cheery. Bit of an uphill walk to the town centre which helps compensate for all the lovely food in Taormina! We would stay again. Who knows, reception might get to like us!

We had a most enjoyable and peaceful stay at the Bel Soggiorno. Breakfast directly outside our room on the terrace overlooking the Ionian Sea was an unexpected delight in November.

a nice and charming, but rather old and cold building when weather in spring is cold and wet. Then it isn't that cosy.

This is in a perfect location between town and the beach. It is about a 10 min walk into town and a 15 min walk down the stairs to the Isola Bella beach. Each room has its own terrace with a great view of the ocean and the hotels garden. If you want the best room request Number 24, it has the largest terrace. All the double rooms are the same price. Do not take a large car here. The parking is a little tight.

Is a 10 minute walk to Taormina, which is a lovely town and so was a great holiday. The hotel is on main road but is still very quiet. My only fault is that it is 20 minutes walk to the cable car (to sea-shore), and the hotel itself has no pool. So if you want to go swimming or laze around sunbathing, its a problem.

Good value for a 3-star hotel. The best feature is the view. Dramatic, panoramic views of the ocean from your balcony. We have 2 children and our room had a double bed plus 2 single beds for the kids which worked out well. Walk to town was about 10 minutes and manageable- even with the kids. Breakfast is great, with a great view of the sunrising over the ocean in the morning. No restaurant, which would have been nice. But there is a wide selection of restaurants within walking distance. We live in Italy and have travaled extensively- I would stay here again.

We spent two weeks in Sicily at four different locations, and Bel Soggiorno was our favorite. The view was incredible, the room very comfortable, the bathroom was huge and the shower had plenty of hot water (a simple pleasure we learned to appreciate in Sicily). Breakfast was a perfect start to each day. The hotel is beautfully decorated. Most of all, Sebastiano was a great host, meeting all of our needs in a friendly and easy-going manner. We hope to stay there again!

This is one of the hotels I like the most. The hotel is absolutely beautiful. I was shocked by its beauty the moment I got there, although I had seen the hotel photos from web. The staff was wonderful. They were so nice and helpful. I will recommend this hotel to all my friends who will go to Taromina in the future.

Our room was very good except for the shower. The drain plug was not working properly. The LOUD music from a hotel below us was playing music to two or three am in the morning! Did truly enjoyed are visit.
