“The staff at Casa Giafari are beyond excellent! They met us at the base of the stairs and helped bring our bags up to our rooms. Very accommodating and kind people. They helped us organize taxis and called to reserve for us when asked. The property is very central to everything in Taormina. The room was very tidy and clean, one of the more comfortable stays in Sicily. Bathrooms spacious and beds feel luxurious. Will stay again!!”
“Giovanna was amazing! Night one, our flights were cancelled, so we got in late and she stayed late to check us in. The view and sunrise over Isosa Bella was so beautiful, I didn't want to leave. Breakfast every morning was delicious! The staff was so warm and welcoming. She also helped arrange a friendly taxi on days where it was too hot to walk up the hill to town and when we had our wedding ceremony. I recommend this to anyone for the value of the experience!”
“Sehr netter Gastgeber! Giuseppe hielt uns bereits bei Ankunft einen kostenlosen Parkplatz frei und gab uns viele hilfreiche Tipps. Für Fragen stand er jederzeit per WhatsApp zur Verfügung. Danke dafür! Das Zimmer mit Whirlpool hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Es war außerordentlich sauber.Das Frühstück war toll. Wir sind für ein paar Euro mit dem Bus nach Taormina hoch gefahren. Die Lokation eignet sich auch als Ausgangspunkt, um zum Ätna zu fahren. In der direkten Umgebung gibt es zahlreiche...
“Great place clean and location was great . Only issue was the noise from the street below was a bit much . People enjoying themselves to 1-2:00 am and then the dragging of chairs and garbage pick up . The doors to the balcony’s should be changed to sound proof this would make the stay more enjoyable as sleeping was hard with all the noise below .”
“I had an excellent stay at this hotel. The staff were genuinely welcoming, professional, and always happy to help. My room was spotless, comfortable, and quiet, with everything I needed for a relaxing stay.
The location was just perfect , right in the center of Taormina with east access to attractions and restaurants.
I will stay in this hotel again .”
“Superb location at the gates to the old town. The staff went well beyond in every effort to help. From restaurant recommendations to organising taxis nothing was too much effort. Highly recommend staying here. You can walk the town to the gondola down to the beach clubs. Loved it.”
“We booked Villa Ducale 9 months in advance and reserved a sea view suite costing over €600 per night for our honeymoon. Two weeks before arrival, we were informed that some rooms had flood damage and that we had already been relocated to another hotel without our consent.
The replacement hotel was clearly lower quality. For the same dates, Villa Ducale was around €600+ per night while the relocated hotel was closer to €300. The hotel also felt outdated and disappointing, so we walked to Villa...
“It was such a fantastic time. I visited this hotel for my honeymoon. All the staff treated us kindly and introduced us to a nice room. I can't forget the ancient room and the wonderful view. Not only breakfast, but also the restaurant where I had lunch and the bar I used for dinner were all perfect. I won't forget the well-cared garden. It's such a wonderful place that I want to visit Sicily again later. Thank you to everyone at the hotel.”
