I can’t say enough about the staff here! So kind, thoughtful, and go above and beyond! The property is in a great location and the breakfast terrace is dreamy. I stayed in two different categories. The 1st floor room is huge, and well taken care of with tons of closet space and a sitting area. The upper level room was smaller and more cozy, but had an incredible walk-out balcony with lounge chairs. I would definitely stay here again the next time I am back in Taormina.

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.

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.

What a wonderful place to stay. The staff were all lovely and Loris was especially helpful. Message in advance for instructions if you are driving - it’s simple enough but you need the instructions of where to bring your car. Paying for the hotel to take the car and park it was a great choice. Our suite was lovely and being so well located by the gates to the old town was just perfect
