John
Prime and best possible position, I loved staying in this place.
The employees were responsive and kept it all fairly clean.

I recently had a fantastic stay at this hotel, and I must say, I was pleasantly surprised by the overall value for money. The prices were very reasonable, especially considering the attention to detail and the great location on top of the hill close to the city center. The hotel is also conveniently located near the bus terminal, making it easy to explore the beautiful Sicilian coast, including remote beaches. Additionally, I loved that there was a charming communal garden nearby, perfect for a relaxing stroll. The basic amenities in the rooms were all in place, and I particularly enjoyed the good hot shower and the great view of Etna from the little balcony. Lastly, the breakfast spread, which included local specialties, was a delight to enjoy while soaking in the signature Taormina view.
All aspects of my stay were ok, I couldn't ask for more.

Big room with a beautiful landscape... Room was well cleaned. Location very near of the centre
Breakfast poor... No parking free near the hotel (but this is a problem of all Taormina)

This is a wonderful hotel. Modern, stylish, located right in front of the beautiful harbour with some superb restaurants. An ideal location for a peaceful getaway.

I was pleasantly surprised by the breathtaking views from the terrace at Hotel Elios Tao. Sitting on the swings, soaking in the beauty of the sea and Mt. Etna was truly magical. The bed in my upgraded room was extra comfy, and I loved waking up to the stunning views each morning. The location was perfect, allowing me to explore the historic center without needing a car. Despite a couple of drawbacks like a noisy street in the morning and a breakfast that could use more variety, overall I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Hotel Elios is in a fantastic location in Taormina. It's less than a 10 minute walk from the main bus terminal which connects to Taormina train station, day trips and other destinations in Sicily. It's in a quiet street which is minutes away from many cute local cafes, restaurants, bars & shopping! Great panorama views of Taormina from the rooftop terrace. For a few night stay this is a perfect option, great value for money.
The communication with the staff was a little difficult sometimes, not bad English but organising some things did't work out the way we asked. The continental breakfast was very basic, only coffee/tea and croissants, maybe they could add cereal & fruit and that would be adequate and meet a clients expectation for a continental breakfast.

This was my such wonderful stay for one night. Everything was wonderful, so were exceptional views of the bay and Etna. Its location a walking distance from ancient ruins was marvellous and fantastic. There were the main shopping centre and shopping centres around the hotel.

Great location, just a short walk from bus stop and city center. The breakfast terrace was amazing, with stunning views and plenty of delicious food. The staff was friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome and comfortable during our stay.
The room could have been cleaner, with some stains on the bedding and furniture. The shower was not very powerful and could be improved.

The staff were helpful and spoke english well. The breakfast was absolutely brilliant and being able to park nearby was also a plus. We would definitely stay at this hotel again if we ever returned to Taormina. It's only a short walk from the shops and main tourist attractions and has an excellent view from the roof terrace.
Overall very good, however, there was no flexibility on the check out time and you have to ask at reception for them to get the air-conditioning going in your room.

The balcony view from the 3rd floor and above is just amazing. The 4th floor plaza common area was enjoyed by our group of 10 and gives a nice 180 degree view of Taormina. Parking is a problem, subsequently if you are being transported by bus you could very well cause a traffic jam. The staff was very accommodating and pleasant. I would definitely go back. Td
Toilet in our room required patience. It was no big deal, just a slight inconvenience.

Would stay here again and again, no reason to complain, loved our stay. It is a lovely small hotel with nice view of Etna and sea. Plus, the location is particularly good and stunning, minutes from a perfect horseshoe-shaped theatre.

This hotel is a hidden gem in a great location. It is situated just near the central bus terminal, making it incredibly convenient to explore all the beautiful places in Sicily, including remote beaches. The hotel's proximity to the terminal also makes it easy to access transportation for day trips. Additionally, there is a stunning communal garden just opposite the hotel, offering a peaceful and scenic retreat for guests.
All aspects of this hotel were fantastic.
