We coincidentally bumped into this hotel in early January without reservation or having checked any reviews beforehand. It's just off one of the two main roads leading into Taormina, some 400 meters from the gate that leads into the main (pedestrianised) shopping street. We were offered a very reasonable price by the ruy at the front desk, but asked to... more

My friend & myself (2 young at heart grannies) booked this hotel through Thomson holidays and paid £210 supplement each for a superior room sleeping up to 3 with seaview & balcony. When we arrived we were offered a low level room, very dark due to the large palm tree outside, which you could just glimpse the sea if you... more

Bell Air deal for 10 day stay, Miramare a fatanstic hotel with very good views, air conditioning, breakfasts and cleanlines. Amazing pool so clean and quiet but one terrible Italian family spoiled it at weekends - we think they were friends of the owners???They should know better and not let them make all that noise by the pool side. more

We have just returned from 7 days in Taormina. I booked directly with the Grand Hotel Miramare some 6 months earlier and all was confirmed and the price agreed dependent upon receipt of a Fax for the deposit information. This I duly sent. My telephone supplier confirmed transmission. Some 3 weeks prior to departure I contacted the hotel reception who... more

The hotel was in a good location for the town just a 10 minute walk on the flat and opposite the bus station great for trips! The 192 steps... more

We have just returned from a two week stay at the Miramare - it was a fantastic hotel based on our experience. The location is perfect, 5 mins walk from the centre of Taormina and also ideal for excursions as it is a minute away from the bus station. However, it was extremely peaceful with delightful views. We'd recommend getting... more

The three of us (son, 12, my beloved wife and I) had a fabulous week, which we would have extended if possible!! Swimming pool in a lush garden with a smooth walk and one astonishing view after another, great breakfast, very nice, friendly personnel and no complaints at all... you will not regret a single cent or penny. more
