We stayed three nights at the Bel Soggiorno, we chose this hotel as previous guests said it was a 10 minute uphill walk to the town, essential we feel if you want to take advantage of all that lovely pasta and pizza, and indeed I think you need to be fairly fit to get the best out of coastal towns... more

We stayed in Bel Soggiorno in Taormina during the first 3 days of our holiday trip around Sicily. The hotel is on a hill on the way to the city centre. It is just a 10 minutes walk via some stairs up the road. No problem for us. The room was very nice and clean, with a small balcony and... more

This is a hotel in the grand old style of early 20th Century resorts. Our room had french doors that opened onto a semi-private area with lounge chairs overlooking the sea. Set on the edge of the hills that lead from the ocean up to the town of Taormina, practically every room of the hotel overlooks the sea, including the... more

A smallish hotel, in the same family for a hundred years, the Bel Soggiorno provides a great antidote to large chain or tourist hotels. It was built in 1908 and extended in the 1920s and although it has been modernised it still feels very traditional and maybe even a bit old-fashioned. There are some books in the salon, many of... more

We recently stayed at this hotel and can say that we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday. We had a lovely big room with views to etna which had 2 terraces which was an unexpected bonus. The room was basic but very clean(+tidied and fresh towels provided each day) we found the staff to be incredibly friendly and welcoming.(Particuarly the owner and... more

As we were going up to Taormina on the bus and we drove past the hotel it got a little worrying when the bus continued quite a bit further to the bus stop which is just outside the centre of town. The hotel is in a beautiful location however it is not the most convenient. It is about a 15minute... more
