Hotel Victoria

We had stayed at the Hotel Victoria years ago and were thrilled to be back. This time we were given complete instructions for parking. The decor is totally charming. The men at the desk are helpful. The air conditioning was out the night of our stay (fortunately it was a cool night) with repair unavailable, so we were upgraded (without our asking) to a beautiful room with a balcony. Our friend easily found a quiet space for a necessary Zoom meeting. A tasty breakfast was served in a lovely room. Highly recommended.

It was all good!

The hotel is conveniently placed onto the main pedestrian street and has a special flair as it’s located in the historical building. The staff were nice and polite, though the ladies who served breakfast didn’t really speak English. The room is equipped with noise canceling windows which is very handy

Our room didn’t fully correspond to the pictures posted on booking.com. It was also rather tiny. The bed appeared to be too short for us. Breakfast was quite average and didn’t provide much variety as there were the same dishes/products served every day

Rooms were clean and comfortable. The location is right in the centre of Taormina on the main shopping street. Breakfast was good with a choice if cold meats ,cheese, boiled eggs and fruit , bread and pastries

There were no comfortable areas to lounge in if the weather was bad. Luckily for us we had lovely weather during our stay..it is a bed and.breakfast establishment rather than a hotel... There is no car access as cars have to be left in a car park outside the town. A shuttle bus brings travellers to within 300 metres of the hotel and from there one proceeds on foot. For elderly travellers or those unable to wheel cases that distance this could be a difficulty. Staff in the hotel were friendly and helpful.

location in the centre , parking on site , staff excellent exspecially Luigi and Piero breakfast was great with great staff.

quite hard to find the rear of the hotel where the parking is. I suggest they send a photo of the entrance road.

Staff were excellent, very helpful with any issues, or questions we had, about where to eat, What to do or how to get somewhere. The rooms are very keen, they are kept spotless with deep clean daily. The breakfast is quite good each morning. The location is superb in the heart of taormina. Overall I would say it is not too bad value for money. It's more expensive than other areas in sicily but for taormina prices it is not bad.

Can be a little loud at times, we were on the first floor where the breakfast is served from 8-10, during those hours it can be loud. Outside of that ir isnt roo bad, no street noise bur can occasionally hear other guests outside or above. The bed is a little hard or uncomfortable at times but if you are like us, you will be tired at the end of the day and wont notice it too much.

Location was great right in the centre of Corso Umberto. You have to be okay with noise as people are out enjoying the town until late into the night. We were okay with it but if you have young children, it might not be the right spot for you.

We didn’t like that you had to leave your room key with reception every time you left the hotel and pick up upon return. The concierge is always there so it’s no issue for pick up. Turns out this was the same process in Cefalu as well but not sure the reason behind this process. Breakfast is served on the first floor dining room. It’s a small room and there was a door with small balcony open for fresh air However it was really hot in this room and I would recommend shutting the door and having the air con on instead. The server was amazing though.

Excellent location in the centre of the town within walking distance of theatre and other sites in the town. Very good breakfast. staff friendly and helpful. I parked in the big car park just off the motorway and got the free bus shuttle into town which stops at the end of the main street, a short walk to the hotel. This is very handy. We enjoyed good meals at two local restaurants.

The car park has a very narrow road width when ascending to higher floors such that I scraped the bumper of my hire car. It is designed for very small cars. The town was overrun with visitors of all nationalities.

Hotel is located at the heart of Taormina- couldn’t be more central than what it is. Hotel room is quite big, decor is nice and classical, matches the city vibes very well. Our room had a balcony which is great. Breakfast was also quite good. Staff was friendly and helpful.

It felt like the air conditioning was struggling a bit with the summer heat (especially when compared to other hotels we’ve stayed during this trip to Sicily). Another thing that I’d say is that the hotel has a very nice terrace with breathtaking views of the city and it feels (personally) that the hotel could do more to take advantage of such a nice feature (eg: chairs, tables etc)

The location of this hotel was perfect. Step out of the door and your in the main centre of Taormina. The hotel was old, but that was part of the charm. the owner took pride in telling us it was one of the first two hotels to be built in Taormina and has quite a history. It was clear and tidy and had a very Italian charm with the decor. Breakfast was great, staff were friendly. The access to the hotel is a pedestrian street, but very easy. Directions were provided to a public car park which is reasonably priced and the free shuttle dropped you off just a a couple of hundred yards away. Perfect for a few nights in a beutiful town.

Nothing to note.

Hotel Victoria is right on the main street in Taormina which is pedestrianised, so the location is perfect for shops, restaurants, bars, etc. The staff were incredibly friendly, and spoke enough English to make us welcome and to assist us. The room was simply furnished, but had everything we needed, and was very clean. This was our first experience of a traditional Italian breakfast - and we really enjoyed it.

Having booked a parking space, it took a few attempts to locate the garage which is to the rear of the hotel. When we missed the laneway on our first circuit, it was necessary to travel a long way because of the narrow, one-way streets before we eventually found out where to go. Parking was easy once we got there and it was straight-forward to leave Taormina when we left the hotel.
