- Sara (9/5): -
- Angela (9/5): Fabulous - Everything Nothing
- Diego (9/5): El lugar está súper bien ubicado, - Ubicación sobre todo! Buena onda Las habitaciones son amplísimas pero muy raro el sector ducha que es un misterio del diseñador. Otro detalle poco entendible es que los espejos de ambas piletas de cara son demasiados altos ( mido 172 cm ) y se complica la visión para una buena afeitada. Hay una buena cafetera pero no disponen de leche para el mismo. Detalles.

- Marianna (10/5): Fantastic location and wonderful staff - highly recommended! - We had an amazing stay! The staff was incredibly friendly and supportive throughout our entire visit. The location is perfect, right next to Porta Catania, making it easy to explore. The staff gave us great restaurant tips nearby. Using the valet parking service made our stay very relaxing, as parking in Taormina is quite tricky. Thank you for everything!
- Sven (10/5): Geschmackvoll leise und zentral - Schöne Lage geschmackvoll eingerichtet prima Kaffeemaschine und Pflegeprodukte und ein süsse Terrasse mit Teilblick auf den Ätna - unser Gastgeber war sehr zugewandt und hat uns prima Tipps gegeben Nichts
- Rachel (10/5): I would like to return to enjoy the lovely garden. - Everything! Great location, excellent facilities and a very comfortable bed. Really helpful staff, and even provided umbrellas which were essential for our stay. Nothing
- Renate (10/5): Wunderschöner Aufenthalt mit perfektem Platz direkt in der traumhaft schönen Stadt Taormina - Super zentrale Lage mit traumhaften Blick.Wunderschöner Garten dabei und vom Parkhaus kommt man direkt oben bei der Stadt raus Es gibt nix
- Wolfgang (10/5): - Alles toll
- daniele (10/5): -
- Agnieszka (10/5): Pięknie usytuowany obiekt w historycznym budynku. Ciekawy design. - Profesjonalna i pomocna obsługa w recepcji. Poziom czystości , aranżacja przestrzeni. Nie było takiej rzeczy.
- Erik Jan (9/5): Exclusive stay - Very exclusive setting. We had a great stay as we had a good deal. It was a bit quiet. Not everything was very practical during breakfast. When it rains no setting other than your room. Staff was not always prepared or available during breakfast.
- Kirsten (7/5): - Comfortable beds
Friendly staff Breakfast was limited (yoghurt, croissant).
Room (junior suite) was small
Expensive for small hotel room
- Amalia Georgiana (10/5): Our stay was a delightful experience — relaxing, elegant, and full of Sicilian charm. - We had a wonderful stay at Médousa Bistrot & Suites in Taormina! We booked the room just one day before arriving, yet everything went perfectly smoothly. When we got there, the staff kindly allowed us to leave our luggage while the room was being cleaned, so we could enjoy exploring Taormina freely.
Since the hotel wasn’t fully booked, they even offered us several room options to choose from — such a thoughtful gesture that made us feel truly welcomed. The room was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully designed.
Breakfast was absolutely delightful, served in a stunning garden filled with olive and orange trees and the delicate scent of jasmine. It was a peaceful oasis in the heart of Taormina, the perfect start to each day.
We warmly recommend Médousa Bistrot & Suites to anyone looking for an authentic, refined, and welcoming experience in Taormina. We would love to come back! 🌿☀️
- Petra (9/5): -
- Rosanna (4/5): Extremely overpriced. Problems with room. Would not recommend at all. - Location was great. Staff were friendly especially Carmen. She was amazing. Value for money was terrible. Extremely overpriced. Very mediocre breakfast. Coffee machine never worked properly. You couldn't get a cappucino or anything with milk. When you pay $2500 you would think they have a working coffee machine. Also, the very expensive suite was directly over the restaurant which played loud music every night not allowing you to sleep.
- Rosanna (4/5): Would not go back. - Location. Extremely overpriced and overrated . Definitely not worth the price. No amenities. Disappointing breakfast. Main coffee machine in breakfast area not working. Hardly any breakfast offered.

- mihai (8/5): -
- Flavio (9/5): - Localização excepcional e equipe muito prestativa.
- Paul (10/5): - Great
- Vasileia (10/5): Περάσαμε εξαιρετικά - Πρώτα από όλα το προσωπικό στη ρεσεψιόν ήταν εξαιρετικό πάντα με το χαμόγελο και παρά πολύ εξυπηρετικοί!
Ήταν όλα πεντακάθαρα και η τοποθεσία ηταν ακριβώς δίπλα στο κέντρο της πόλης! Θα θέλαμε κάτι διαφορετικό στο πρωινό ίσως κανένα πιάτο με αυγό και πιο πολλά αλμυρά πράγματα! Αλλά αυτό είναι πολύ μικρή λεπτομέρεια καθώς όλα τα υπόλοιπα ήταν απλά τέλεια!
- camila (10/5): To be remembered forever !!!! - Médousa Hotel and Bistrot is simply delightful!!!! Located in the center of Taormina , has modern yet cozy spacious rooms and the most lovely staff ever !!! Carmen and Fiorentina were the best !!!!
- teresa (10/5): Estadia muito romântica num local maravilhoso. - Um hotel de charme no centro de Taormina. Muito bem decorado, muito bonito e confortável . Ficamos na suíte para o jardim e era muito grande e confortável. Os funcionários são muito atenciosos e prestáveis. Adoramos a estadia
- Nicholas (10/5): Location, location, location! - Friendly greeting by Carmen on arrival who enjoys a laugh! Perfect location to explore Taormina centre, 15 seconds to the main strip but still outside of the hustle and bustle. Great sized rooms and the staff are very accomodating. For couples, cheeky shower, for mother and son maybe not.
Helped a lot to be able to park at the hotel and have the valet service.
- Tarik (9/5): Comfortable room to explore Taormina - Good location. Availability on short notice. Nice staff AirBnB feels to it in that you get a comfortable and functional room (everything worked and was tidy) but nothing more. Expensive for what it was
- Xiaoguang (3/5): 非常不好 - 地理位置不错 浴室设施非常不方便,没有挂衣服的地方。在booking上预订的是40平米的家庭套房,入住时房间目测最多30平米,和预订时的照片完全不一样,到前台反映后说没有起他房间,全满了,我们全家三个人住在这么小的房间,行李箱都没地方放,是最差的一次住宿体验
- Tamara (10/5): 5 von 5 Sternen - besser geht’s nicht ! - Unser Aufenthalt in den Hotel Suites Medusa in Taormina war rundum perfekt. Die Suiten sind modern und stilvoll eingerichtet, alles war makellos sauber und mit viel Liebe zum Detail gestaltet.
Das Personal war außergewöhnlich freundlich, aufmerksam und stets hilfsbereit – man fühlt sich sofort willkommen und bestens betreut. Besonders hervorzuheben ist die ruhige, aber zentrale Lage: In wenigen Minuten ist man in der Altstadt, gleichzeitig genießt man herrliche Ruhe und Entspannung.
Das Frühstück war typisch italienisch - hochwertig, frische Croissant und mit lokalen Spezialitäten – ein wunderbarer Start in den Tag.
Wir kommen definitiv wieder und können die Medusa Suites jedem empfehlen, der Komfort, Stil und herzliche Gastfreundschaft in traumhafter Lage sucht.
- IBRAHIM BORAN (8/5): Güzel konum, kahvaltı hayal kırılığı oldu - Mükemmel konumda, herkesin buluştuğu Corso Umbertoya çok yakın
Buzdolabı, kahve makinesi var, banyo malzemeleri çok iyi kalitede
Rita ve Davide çok yardımcı oldular, diğer ismini bilmediğimiz çalışanlar da çok ilgiliydiler Kahvaltı maalesef otelin tamamına gölge düşürüyor, en basit tesislerde bile karşılaşmayacağınız derecede basit bir kahvaltısı vardı. Ödediğimiz ücretin karşılığı bu olmalıydı.
Paket peynir, otomatik makina kahvesi, bir kaç ekmek vs ile sunulan kahvaltı maalesef hayal kırıklığı oldu. Ortalamanın üzerinde bir fiyat ile satılan otelden beklentimiz doğal olarak daha yüksekti
Personelin güler yüzü bu durumu bu durumu biraz daha kabul edilebilir kılıyor
- Taha Cihan (8/5): - Great location, friendly staff and have a good restaurant down there. Breakfast is not good enough and staff is not always there when you need it.
- Alexandra (10/5): Perfection! - What an absolute treasure this accomodation was! The host was exceptional and took great care in ensuring our stay was perfect. We cannot wait to come back. Thank you so much!
- Tamara (7/5): Good - Great location, right next to the main shopping/oldtown street The bathroom was open in the room and no glass or curtain to close the shower and the toilet had no door either
- Gerard (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sun-po (10/5): Exceptional - Passionate receptionist and nice location, there is a public parking lot nearby, to solve the parking big problem here.
- Michelle (10/5): Exceptional - The hotel is in a perfect location, removed slightly from busy Taormina centre, but literally on the edge. The garden and ambience was divine, old, green and stylish. We stayed in a garden suite, with a beautiful garden area. The breakfast was continental, but perfect for us, sitting in the garden with Etna in view. The service we received from Carmen was truly exceptional, and she offered advice and support on everything- a delight. the private garden was stunning, jasmine scented, but the other 2 suites were next door, and not properly screened off, so not very private. The shower base did overflow slightly, which just soaked towels, and not great for the price and expected luxury.
- Toby (10/5): Superb stay in Taormina in fabulous Medousa Suites - We loved our stay at Médousa Bistrot & Suites! The location is superb, built into the walls of the old town and right next to the main entrance gate. Its about a 2 minute walk for Porta Catania Carpark. The place is super cool, with gorgeous gardens, our room had a lovely terrace with a wall full of jasmine. The room was large and comfortable and contemporary. All the staff were really lovely!! The breakfast was delicious, sat overlooking Mt Etna. The bistro looked superb, although we didn't eat there as was lots off fish on the menu, so no good for me. Taormina is a fabulous town to visit, a must for anyone touring around Sicily.
- Michael (9/5): I'd definitely book again. - Fantastic property. Absolutely beautiful terraced gardens. Breakfast on the terrace. And the staff were all super. They couldn't do enough to help and were very friendly. I'm a fussy sleeper and there was a fridge noise clicking in and off all night. Staff did everything possible to locate it. Upon realising it was a restaurant fridge, they offered a new room. In the end ear plugs sufficed!
- Vivian (10/5): - Excellent location. Just off the busy and fun shopping / dining options. Rooms were huge with great air conditioning. Amenities for the bathroom great and room was really modern and spacious. Staff were so friendly. Breakfast is continental. Restaurant for dinner was alright.
- Anton (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jean-françois (10/5): Perfect place to stay in Taormina - Perfect location & quiet place to stay.
the room very comfy with beautiful view on the garden. The parking is very close to the property.
You can do everything by walk.
- Karen (10/5): - Great location lovely people.
- Chloe (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gustavo (8/5): Great location in Taormina - + great location to access the busy areas of Taormina, fantastic service
- shower in the middle of the room
- Suhaa (10/5): - Very cute, well thought through with the perfect Sicilian friendliness to welcome and guide you. The Bistro is excellent, ask for the wine experience with Antonio and his team if you feel up for it.
- Andrew (9/5): Great value for a huge room in a beautiful environment - Beautiful Location and a gorgeous property & extremely helpful team. Great cocktails at the on site bistrot as well! Breakfast was a small bag every day - some variety would have been great.
- Juliette (8/5): Very good -
- Lise (8/5): Very good -
- Mary (9/5): Really cool hotel in the heart of Taormina - Great place to stay when in Taormina. Interiors is really cool, feels modern with character but the hotel is built off the walls of the historical town centre so there’s a cool mix of style.
Loris (the hotel manager) was super friendly and helpful. He was whatsapping us to ensure our transfer was okay, gave advice of things to do and more.
We were upgraded to suite. Room was spacious with its own terrace. Had everything you needed including hair dryer and steamer. A bit noisy early morning from outside the hotel / could hear other guests at times. Parking was a bit pricey.
- Darren (8/5): Nice... but a bit quirky - Great great location. Enjoyed our little outdoor terrace. The staff were super nice. They had generous free snacks with the mini bar and a good coffee maker. The room was large which is great but a bit odd with a large open shower in middle of the suite and wash basins in bedroom area. I think this room is a unique suite we were 'upgraded' to so may not represent other rooms. It was lovely as it had a nice terrace to sit and enjoy some sun.
Breakfast was very simple delivered to room - a croissant, and yogurt basically - a bit too simple perhaps for most people.
- Creekmore (10/5): Exceptional -
- Manuel (10/5): - Spacious room and clean facilities.
Staff very helpful and can be contacted any time . Best location, quiet but close to places of interest. 👍
- David (10/5): - We had a great stay at the Medousa Suites!
The room was super clean, had everything we needed and the breakfast was perfect for what we wanted each morning. Loris was a pleasure to deal with and he helped enormously with anything we needed.
We would definitely stay there again if we go back to Taormina!
- Alison (8/5): Lovely boutique apartment in perfect location - Loris and the team were all very helpful and super lovely! Even though there isn't a 24 hour reception desk, Loris is very attentive and helped to answer all our questions via Whatsapp. Location was perfect + the room was lovely and large, with a nice outdoor terrace. Breakfast was honestly so delicious, even though the buffet was out of action. The shower flooded our room each time we used it, even for only a short time, and we needed to use multiple towels to avoid the water flooding everywhere. Air conditioner also wasn't functioning correctly and our room was quite stuffy and smelly from it, but couldn't open the windows due to mosquitoes.
- Ali (5/5): Passable - breakfast bags in the morning were somewhat okay for room price. There was no amenities offered at this property. No privacy in terrace while resting. It was a nice room but over priced compared to other places we stayed in Sicily.
- Ivana (10/5): Amazing! 10/10 - Very clean and well equipped room! Perfect if you’re with the car - that’s very important in taormina! The host Loris was amazing and very helpful. There is a supermarket right in front of the hotel. We can recommend 10/10!
- Mansour (10/5): Spectacular - Amazing boutique hotel with a great location. The staff, represented by Loris, were extremely helpful and made our trip to Taormina memorable.
- Mac871 (10/5): Exceptional - The host was amazing, best recommendations and made our stay unforgettable
- Sara (9/5): Superb - Breakfast was basic but good quality. The concierge was excellent. Nothing was to much trouble . He looked after us very well . With excellent recommendations.
- David (10/5): Great hotel, great restaurant. Wonderful staff attention. - The continental breakfast was good, nutritious. I know a buffet is coming back but I don't know when we can return. Everything was great.
- Valeria (10/5): Exceptional -
- Blanka (10/5): Exceptional - If you are comming to Taormina we totally reccomend this hotel - you wont be dissapointed. Our apartment was very beautiful and clean with a nice and big terrace! The service was always on point. The host is very responsive, helpful and friendly (Loris is the best)! The hotel is located in the city center. We enjoyed our stay a lot! .
- Araceli (10/5): Amazing location, amazing host, amazing restaurant and amazing views. - Fabulous location! Can’t think of anything.
- Jessica (10/5): Exceptional - Medousa is perfectly located in the heart of Taormina. We easily parked our car and felt we could walk straight out of the door into the buzz of the beautiful town. The room and terrace we incredibly clean and modern. We loved the special touch of breakfast being left outside the door in little bags. Loris was knowledgeable, helpful and a fantastic host! We would definitely stay here again. Despite there not being a pool, we didn’t miss it! Loris organised a private car to come and collect us and take us down to a beach club. Nothing!
- Claudia (10/5): Spectacular and perfect - The hotel was in the perfect location, away from all the busy crowds but just a good walking distance from it. The rooms were amazing, clean and tidy. The amenities and products in the shower smelled amazing. The breakfast was on point and up to standard, the dinner in the hotel was one of the best that I had in the city and trip. Most of all, the staff, everyone was on point, kind, helpful and always responding to requests. I cannot recommend this hotel enough. I almost never write reviews, but they deserve it. Nothing.
- Louangela (9/5): Very nice - Very clean and the staff was superbe breakfast could be more complete.
- Rachel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Michael (9/5): Superb -
- Milica (9/5): Superb - The location is amazing, offering breathtaking views and easy access to local attractions. The rooms are spacious, equipped with all the amenities we needed, and impeccably clean. The service was outstanding, with special thanks to Loris for his attentive care of our car. The hotel's bar and restaurant were also fantastic, in a lovely atmosphere. Highly recommended!
- Sebastian (9/5): Fantastic place in a fantastic town. - Very well kept and exotic. Liked it all
- Maria (9/5): Amazing location and staff - Location, staff and the hotel is super nice. The restaurant also great.
The service was amazing and always helpful Room price too high for what you get. I understand taormina is taormina but too expensive for what we got.
- Maria (8/5): Great location - Great equipped and Loris was great! The room was a bit noisy at night but Loris informed the restaurant and they were very considerate
- Lukasz (9/5): Superb -
- Maiken (10/5): Will be back! - Great Nothing
- Faaria (9/5): A must stay in Taormina! - the location, design, terraces, “breakfast in a bag” concept, attentive staff. nothing (except some construction noise early morning, but that was shut off shortly afterwards).
- Douglas (10/5): Spectacular stay and dining experience - To round out a 2 week whirlwind tour of Sicily, my wife and I chose Médousa for our final nights due to proximity of Taormina to Catania airport for a 6 am departure. Its location just outside or really part of the city walls and a short 10 minute walk to Porta Catania parking garage ticked off my boxes for easy in and easy out with our car rental. The level of service, beauty and absolute charm ticked my wife’s and mine both.
Loris was prompt with messages prior to arrival and made us feel at home once we arrived. The suites are extremely comfortable and well appointed with a patio that grants a gorgeous view of Etna. The grounds are part of the city walls and adorned with orange trees that were in full intoxicating blossom during our visit.
The walls and garden provide a quiet and calm that is welcome after venturing into the crowded streets and attractions of Taormina itself.
The bonus was the bistro. Part of why we chose Medousa was interest in the imbedded Bistro. Unfortunately a few weeks prior to arrival we were advised that construction work to prepare for the upcoming season was not likely to be completed until after our stay. To our surprise on the day of our arrival the bistro opened with its new menu and we would have the chance to dine. While poking around the grounds I was welcomed into the bistro to take a look at the chef’s creations. He had prepared a tasting menu for the staff so they could familiarize themselves with the fare. Needless to say I was excited. We made reservations for dinner the following night.
After touring the sites in the morning of our only full day in Taormina both of us were touristed out and while there are plenty of excellent restaurants in Taormina with views of the ocean, we chose to retreat to our quiet garden bistro for lunch. Nothing short of spectacular is all I can say. Nothing
- Gologan (9/5): Superb -
- Amy (10/5): Perfect - Beautiful small boutique hotel in a beautiful garden setting quality room and service.
The bar and restaurant were closed as it’s out of season so can’t say how it would be if they were open. We enjoyed the exclusivity of it being closed Gardens and terrace
- Marcus (8/5): Nice place in great location - Very central location Nothing
- Michael (8/5): Very good - The breakfast was nothing special... We booked online for 2 adults and 1 child, paid for it on Booking.com but then when we got to the place they charged us 80 Euro more saying we didn't book for the child. Though it said we did and it was clear in the reservation - it was just a pull out sofa bed to boot. Just didn't seem right. Also the shower was in the middle of the room and had no door so we couldn't even use it with my daughter so it wasn't like we were in a family suite as they called it. Just a sofa bed. Past that the place was GREAT.
