Puntarazzi Vacation Packages

I cannot say that I would recommend this hotel, and there is a large disparity in quality of accommodation and service between Hotel Metropole in Venezia and Taormina. I would recommend considering any other option first. Key takeaways: We had a king suite in July, so during peak season. The room was not ready for our check in and we had to wait for it. Room cleaning was clearly an issue for the property as the room was not refreshed until 5pm. The light switches in our room did not always work and the first night we had to power off all electricity to get the lights off. The skylights seemed to have a controller to close them that did not function and thus the room was flooded with daylight by 6am each day. When we went to check out we asked for a later checkout which they said was impossible due to a full hotel, there are several flights of stairs so when we went to check out we then had to wait 30 minutes for the porter to get our luggage. Breakfast, hospitality, and the pool service were all below expectations for the price and five star rating. Please consider other options before this one.

Excellent spa, amazing view of mount etna, wish we could have stayed longer.

We stayed at Hotel Continental Taormina and had a mixed experience. On the positive side, the location was good, offering convenient access to the town, and the staff were amazing — warm, attentive, and genuinely helpful throughout our stay. Unfortunately, the rooms fell below expectations. They felt substandard for the price, and the lack of a tea or coffee machine in the room was a noticeable inconvenience — a basic amenity we’d expect at most hotels. Breakfast, while available, felt overpriced for what was on offer. Overall, the wonderful staff and good location were real positives, but the room quality and breakfast pricing left something to be desired. Worth considering if location and service are your priority, though don’t expect a luxury room experience.

Amazing

This hotel was in the perfect location in Taormina and had beautiful views and pool! We got the Junior Suite and it was perfect for our honeymoon and also wasn't exorbitantly priced. The breakfast buffet was quite good too! There's no onsite gym so working out was a little bit of a problem, but walking up/down all the hills nearby helps with that. :) The one odd thing that happened is the front desk wasn't able to bring us a bottle opener for wine in our room, but that could have also been a miscommunication. It was hard to tell. Overall, it was an incredible place! I would go back in a heartbeat.

The pallidio was an amazing boutique hotel. I travelled with my husband and 3 adult kids. We had the apartment room 10. it was spacious and we were able to sleep well and have each kid in their own space. My only thing would have been to have my son on his own space - his single bed was on w my husband and I. It was fine. Just a recommendation
