If You Are in a Hurry
Here’s a quick list of the best hotels in Taormina
Perched on dramatic cliffs above the Ionian Sea, Taormina’s luxury hotels blend Sicilian baroque glamour with modern comforts—think private terraces overlooking Isola Bella, Michelin-starred dining, bespoke spa treatments and concierge-arranged excursions to Mount Etna. For the best experience, reserve a sea-view suite or historic palazzo room and visit in late spring or early autumn for milder weather, quieter streets and better rates, while arranging private transfers and guided day trips to maximize both relaxation and cultural discovery.
