Relaxing stay in Taormina

Lovely staff at Hotel Piccolo Giardino made our stay very relaxing. Breakfast in garden with resident cats, restaurant on site and roof top terrace for sunbathing. The location was perfect only one minute from the high street Corsa Umberto. The only drawback was the bathroom was rather tired and the shower was in an awkward place, not good for those with limited mobility.

The property was very well located and you could pop right out onto the main shopping street. The staff was also very friendly and helpful. However this hotel is in need of some maintenance. The bathrooms smelled of mold. The room was also not the cleanest. There was also trim ripped off around our door. Parking is also super inconvenient. However, I think that is the case for most hotels in the area. The free breakfast was also not very good.

We thought the overall stay was okay. We had two major issues including our safe that was not working that we reported the first day and nothing was resolved. The second issue being our AC was making all kinds of loud noises whether it was on or off. When we reported this to the maintenance staff, nothing was made of it. Made the nights at times unbearable. Would still recommend the stay, but our experience was poor at times.

A bit basic at the moment

We stayed in a family room. It was clean and beds were comfortable. Good air conditioning. However, there wasn't enough storage for clothes, so we lived out of our suitcases. Bathroom was dated with shower over bath, poor water pressure and temperature kept changing by itself. Breakfast was buffet and great variety and plentiful. Location great, close to the cable car and just off the Corsa Umberto for great choice of restaurants and shops. Staff is what makes this place, they were amazing, full of knowledge and so helpful.

Horrible! Booked 4 rooms for 3 nights in heart of summer and they had no air conditioning in rooms from 8am to 10pm. And they lie and mislead public by conning them into believing that their system was “down”. Bathrooms were dirty with mold and paint/tile chipped. Drains clogged so showers flooded rooms. Toilet flushers popping off walls. They advertise smart TV’s but connection was so weak that not even basic cable available. It’s in a great location, had a pretty pool deck, and decent breakfast but that’s about it! Whole place was one giant false advertisement
