Grand Hotel Miramare

The views were amazing from this hotel, pretty much from all areas. They have a large wonderful breakfast buffet with hot and cold food, great coffee and all you can drink mimosas. The bus stop is less than a half block across the street with restaurants all the way up and around top of hill. Lots of fun shops too!’

Worst Hotel we have ever stayed in. We were not shown to our room just told the lift is over there. Double bed was two singles pushed together which kept coming apart. Water in bathroom sink would not go down needed plunging, shower you could not move in. You could hear flushing toilets from other room and scrapping chairs across the floor. when putting the tap on it sounded like a garden machine was outside. The furniture was scratched and stained. Hotel needs doing up, loads of broken floor tiles on the balcony. Reception staff miserable and unhelpful

Staff were good, accomodating and pleasant to talk with. The facility very clean mostly our room & bath Nice view from our room and bathroom. Easy parking.

Nice place

Good to stay

It would make a world of difference if the rooms were painted. But it is unquestionably a beautiful old school hotel and grounds. I loved once I got past my expectations of what a hotel is supposed to look like.

Beautiful panoramic views of Taormina from the balconies and terraces. About 10 minutes walk up hill into the city proper. The front desk can call you a taxi and they arrive fast. Breakfast is simple but in a lovely setting overlooking the sea. No lunch or dinner service. Rooms are on the small side with again lovely views, but cramped showers and dated furnishings.

Great location with amazing views. The parts of the hotel that have recently been refurbished look great. Some areas seem a little tired, but you can tell that they are refurbishing throughout. The pool area is beautiful but bear in mind that there are a lot of steps to get down to it.

No dinner available. 185 steps from swimming pool up to hotel. Lovely area at pool but too far away. Beds narrow and not very comfortable. Great location. Near bus station.

The service and location of the hotel were excellent. The pool area is beautiful and there were plenty of sunbeds and parasols at all times. Our room was lovely and had an amazing view across the sea towards the Italian mainland. The location is in a quiet area of Taramina away from the crowds, which can be overwhelming at times. Therefore, being able to return to the peace of the Hotel was a real plus.
