Staff was friendly - upgraded to corner balcony room upon arrival without even asking - excellent service- and could literally see Aetna from the outer deck and from the bed out the window. Parking was not a concern as there is parking out front and valet, both for a fee. Location provides view also from lovely rooftop bar and restaurant and is located next to a popular and famous local pizzeria/ restaurant. Easy walk to main area via « secret «  garden walkway.

Loved our stay here and hotel upgrade surpassed our expectation's. Breakfast was wonderful as were all the staff. Views from the Skybar were super. The only negative was the noise early in the morning of the bins being collected nearby but that was not a reflection on this hotel.

First, I would like to compliment Sabrina at the front desk, who helped us find our way to the hotel from Mount Etna as our GPS was sending us in circles, she was patient and helpful and just beyond friendly. The entire staff, we’re all beyond friendly and helpful. The rooms are nice, nothing over the top, but very clean and accommodating. The Terrace is what makes this whole entire hotel as you can sit out on the terrace and have dinner and cocktails and overlook the entire Mediterranean, Taormina and Mount Etna in the distance. We will return one day and stay here if the opportunity comes our way again

2 night stay in Taormina at the end of our Sicily trip. Room was clean and comfortable. The only issue is the water coming from the bathroom sink stunk of sulphur. The shower water did not smell. Otherwise, the location was perfect. Conveniently located near Corso Umberto!

Great views and convenient access

Hotel Continental has wonderful views of Etna, the sea, and Taormina from the terrace and the dining room. It is also (relatively) easy to access in a car compared to many options in town, but also only a short walk to the Main Street. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Our flight from the states to Italy was delayed, resulting in our flight to Sicily being delayed, but despite arriving at the hotel after 10:30 pm, we were warmly greeted and promptly checked into our rooms. Excellent service during our stay. Only comment would be that with anywhere you are staying in Taormina, there is HIGHLY limited parking, so do not plan to park at the hotel, but park at the parking ramp on the way into town and walk to the hotel (does involve taking stairs).

Perfect Location and access to the heart of the village, supper friendly and helpful staff, amazing roof top restaurant with beautiful view and very good breakfast baffle. Very clean room and comfortable bed. Everything we needed for one night stay in Taormina was available and has potential for longer stay. Definitely I recommend this hotel if you want to stay in the village. They provide valet parking with very reasonable cost. They helped us with reservation for Gambini Vini with very short notice that we really appreciated that.
