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!’

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.

Hotel Miramare provides beautiful views of the coast of Taormina. Very close to sights, shopping and restaurants. The room was somewhat old-fashioned, but nice. However, there was a funny smell on the floor where we were staying.

Beautiful hotel grounds and gardens with a large swimming pool, many terraces and places to relax and enjoy the magnificent view. Nice staff and accommodating. Such a lovely spacious property built on the hillside that would be very hard to find in a new hotel. Wonderful breakfast buffet and fab setting. Highly recommend.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel, it was sad to leave. The view from the sea view rooms is stunning. The hotel itself has old school Italian charm so expect the rooms to be dated but very clean. The only flaw I had was my shower head fixture was broken. The recently refurbished pool is modern and spacious, I never had an issue getting a sunbed. The staff were so helpful and friendly, I hope to be back someday soon!

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.
