Stayed at hotel for a week end of May 2008 - two adults and 1 eight years old child. Hotel was clean, service very good and staff ie animators and at restaurant were very friendly. We were stunned by the magnificent views from the hotel. It is ideal location to explore the east coast of Sicily. Could hire a car... more

Five of us , 4 adults & one child stayed at Antares for 2 weeks in August. The hotel was not what we were expecting, & does not live up to the brochure. The rooms were clean & tidy, but the buffet food was not of a very high standard. It was very repetitive & uninspiring! The staff & reception... more

We spent a week in Sicily in June 2003. We booked a package tour through a travel agency in Hungary. The reason of booking Antares Hotel was the closeness of the picturesque town of Taormina without being overpriced as all hotels in Taormina are. This hotel is placed on a hill together with other hotels (Olympico, La Terazze). Antares is... more

We stayed at this hotel for a week between 28th October and 5th November. As with other guests we found the service distinctly lacking, and some staff rude (not all), but you could never trust that what you had asked for would be delivered. For example it took two days to get sunbed mats for all the guests who wanted... more

In order to understand the problems with this hotel you have to know that it is perched at the top of a huge cliff, and is really three hotels : the La Terrazze, the Antares, and the Olimpo, all going up the cliff, with the 3 star Antares at the lower end and the 4 star Olimpo at the higher... more

We went to Taormina for 4 days and this was the best residence that there is. The hotel is situated on a hill and there are beautiful views. It is quite difficult to reach by bus but if you are driving or taking a taxi and ask the residents of letojanni they will help you out. There is a shuttle... more

My friend and I travelled to the Antares Hotel on September 10th returning on the 17th. The views from this hotel are spectacular, we enjoyed just sitting on the balcony and watching the funicular cable car go up and down the side of the hotel, the only way to travel to the Olimpo which is above you. You can use... more

Situated in Letojanni a couple of miles from Taormina. Hotel provides a limited free shuttle to the funicular that then takes you Taormina though it is easier to use the Interbus direct to Taormina or Funibus also to the Funicular. If Arriving at the hotel by public transport enter via the car park and tunnel at the far end, hear... more
