4 star hotels in Giardini-Naxos

The room was spacious and newly renovated, but the soundproofing was a bit poor. There was free parking, and it was very close to Taormina by car. There were supermarkets and some tourist restaurants nearby, which was quite convenient. Breakfast was rather basic.

Sea view room. View was good. Could hear the waves crashing through the night.

Overall a great stay for the price. Saying it’s a 4 star hotel is a bit of a stretch. There was a tiny hole in the ceiling and water damage on some of the floor but the balcony with a view was great. The beach is fantastic and the breakfast is great. Everything gets charged to your room onsite so lunch, dinner, drinks, snacks which is really nice.

Tonino was the best host. He is helpful and smily ! We adore him ! Excellent hôtel; excellent service and awesome spot !

Great staff - lovely hotel The hotel is a fantastic delight, and great value. It had a unique character which was classy and practical. The best part was the hotel staff, who were incredibly helpful and cheerful at all times. Due to plane times, we arrived 3 hours before check in but could store our luggage, change into swimming gear, and use the hotel beach and facilities before we had officially...

Receptionist tonino is very good and welcoming also the service and cleanliness is good and food is ok

Rooms seem recently renovated. Nice surfaces. VERY clean. Large bathroom. Love the balcony views. Close to the water if you are interested. Great location to drive into/out of Taormina and Mtn Etna. Asked the front desk to chill a special bottle of wine and the graciously did so. Would return!

"The hotel has an excellent location. The rooms are spacious, nice, and clean, and the restaurant is the same. The food is plentiful, varied, and delicious. All the staff (housekeepers and waiters) are polite and helpful, and Antonio is outstanding. I was with a group – we were all very satisfied. I would gladly visit again."

Stuck in the 70s. Desk Staff needs work. Ok location. Dated decor. Fridge sort of worked. Included breakfast was great! Lots of choices. Great dining room staff.

Aug 2025 - Couple I was a little bit scared by the Google reviews, which were ranging frok very bad to very good. My experience was very positive: Rooms were clean (even slightly before check-in time), breakfast was good, SPA was great (we experienced massage, pedicure, sauna, pool, etc.), and location was excellent. Noise in the room was not an issue. The only remark I have is that for breakfast...

Stayed for a week with 3 friends. Our rooms were lovely and clean and we were supplied with clean towels everyday. The reception desk always very helpful. I needed a Dr and was promptly recommended to many in the Taormina area. Breakfast had a great selection, plenty to eat. This hotel is not the Ritz but location is great and budget friendly. It is made quite clear when checking in that the lido is...

Overall okay, the service and facilities were okay, the breakfast was good. But the cleaning was not okay and the cleaning lady left the door unlocked on several occasions. Which was very unpleasant when you have all your luggage there.

Amazing view on the sea, the hotel is little vbit vintage for me but the staff was very nice and it was a very good stay

Okay not great The hotel was clean and walking distance to the restaurants and shops area. However, our room did not have natural light; it was too dark and the window showed a patio that looked for storage. The landscape of the pool and beach area was dusty and with weeds.

Overall, it’s a quite pleasant hotel. The cleaning staff is awesome, and I really appreciate the service of one specific waitress who was serving us throughout our vacation. Nice pool! The only inconvenience I found was the shower in our room which was simply unbearable to deal with all the time.

The area by the beach is very nice.

3 night stay Older hotel on the outskirts of town. Could use some updating desk staff not so friendly breakfast was good lots of one night tour buses we had an oceanfront room great views large room

Good room, in the annex building with a beautiful view of the sea, quiet, clean. The food was a little diverse, especially at breakfast, and weak at dinner, contrary to the written menu, it was pretentious. The coffee tastes bad. Long distance to the city, and long distance to the common transport stations for Taormina-Castelmola (exceptional cities!!!) The terminal station in the bus station is...

I had the most delightful time at the Arathena Rocks hotel. My room was most comfortable with a balcony affording the most wonderful sea views. The staff were wonderful and helpful at all times, at breakfast, lunch and dinner. I’d like to thank them all.

Excellent breakfast, very helpful staff. The one thing that would have made our stay perfect would have been a kettle, cups and coffee etc in the room

We stayed in this fantastic hotel for two weeks in July and could not have enjoyed it more. A beautiful hotel with amazing views. The salt water pool and access to the sea from the rocks just beyond. I noticed a lot of people commenting on how the place needs updating but I think they are missing the point as the place is full of interesting antiquities and is full of the history of the island. All...

Our sea view bedroom in the annexe was large, very comfortable, air conditioned and with good washing facilities. The room was cleaned each day and fresh towels supplied. We liked the buffet breakfast, especially squeezing fresh orange juice, and also the evening dinner. As the hotel is a little distance from main restaurants it was our preference to eat in and we met many interesting people by...

relaxing hotel lovely relaxing hotel. old fashioned good service from friendly staff. Very spacious public areas. you can swim in the sea from the rocks as well as the pool. gardens ideal for an evening cocktail.

There’s quite a mixture of reviews here and having spent 6 nights in the hotel here’s my pros and cons and in balance I would go back and really enjoyed Giardini Naxos Pros * exceptionally clean *mostly friendly staff ( older dark hair woman was very helpful as was the waiter at breakfast) * magic location for direct access into sea and this made up for the extra walking distance to the town * 15...

Very nice hotel facing the sea. Easy to locate and free parking along the street front in front (although blue lines). Super clean, comfortable room and great breakfast. Full hotel amenities provided such as room slippers, hair dryer, kettle and toothbrushes. Also the 2 ladies staff on different shifts are super nice and friendly. Compliments to the younger lady who gave an introduction to the room...

This hotel is immaculate and is in a perfect location, right on the beach. The owner, Philip and his son Rocco, together with Rosanna at the front desk made our stay here the best in Sicily… If you can get it, make sure you get a room on the ocean side with a terrace, we were in room 205, it was perfect, for a glass of wine at night and the sunrise in the morning! And the breakfast was delicious, cooked...

The staff were exceptional at this hotel. The room was large & clean. I had a balcony room overlooking the water with plenty of seating. A very nice complimentary breakfast

Hotel was wonderful! The staff were helpful and friendly with great recommendations. We stayed in the penthouse suite with a hot tub and the view was GORGEOUS!! Everything was clean and easy access for car service/taxi pick-up. The breakfast variety and quality exceeded expectations. Would absolutely recommend staying here!

Julia was absolutely wonderful—so kind and helpful throughout our stay. She shared excellent recommendations that made our visit even better. The hotel was spotless, the beds were very comfortable, and the breakfast was fantastic.

We stayed in a room with a courtyard view, which unfortunately looked out onto a wall — no ocean view or scenery, even though the hotel didn’t seem fully booked as a Platinum ******* member, we weren’t offered an upgrade or another room, which was disappointing. The hotel itself was very nice and clean. The front desk staff were friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Breakfast was excellent, with plenty...

I had an amazing stay at this hotel! From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel incredibly welcome and taken care of. The room was spotless, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The real highlight, though, was the restaurant. Every dish I tried was absolutely delicious, fresh ingredients, perfect seasoning, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere...

Very nice structure, with huge potential

Hotel at beginning of bay with good views over and towards Taormina & mountains. Rooms simple, nicely furnished & spotlessly clean with mini fridge for water. Clean towels every day, bed linen changed regularly. Bright lighting to read& TV but no English channel. Air Con not that great. Towels not supplied for pool/beach. Continental breakfast with fried eggs & bacon. No snacks or light lunches...

Beautiful hotel, perfect location and well kept rooms. Colazione era delicious! Gratzi!

Very friendly staff fantastic location for a perfect holiday

we stayed only one night. The structure is overall good, the bathroom is a bit too small and there is no parking. Satisfactory breakfast

Very friendly Hotel. Excellent quality / price ratio. The room great . We dined very well with the quality of fish excellent. Only drawback is the swimming pool. There is the floor and being all deep and is not accessible to those who do not know how to swim.

4 star Hotel, but 4 stars is not much left.. maybe it was..but in the eighties..the time seems to be stopped.. I can only find foreign workers.. rooms are certainly not fragrant.. and could greatly improve the cleanliness of the rooms, the bed uncomfortable.

In the first week of October we stayed at this lovely hotel. We had a twin room with a sea view. Clean and tidy with an ensuite shower. TV and small fridge with drinks. Breakfast was in my opinion great. I had scrambled eggs and local sausage, yoghurt and fruit and a little treat of sweet bakes every day with coffee and fruit juice. Reception staff were friendly and helpful. I enjoyed my stay. Its...

We stayed at this hotel for 9 nights in June 2025. The location is perfect, just across the beach and few minutes away from the bus stop. The beach was nice, water was wonderful. Umbrellas and sunbeds had extra charge. The staff was very nice, always friendly and willing to help. The breakfast was perfect, with delicious food and just enough for every taste. Our room was a little small, but spotless...

We had a very pleasant stay at the hotel, and it was the perfect location to spend a few days in Naxos. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Excellent welcome despite late arrival but the boss went out of his way to put a child's bed in a room and at no extra charge. Then admitted us into his restaurant where we were served a nice full meal. I recommend this quiet, well located hotel.

Nice hotel near the beach. This hotel has its own beach and good fish restaurant. Breakfast was good but it was always late on schedule. Aircon worked and view to the beach was nice. There is noise outside in most if the nights since there are bars and disco nearby. Grocery shop is one block away.

Very nice hotel, very nice staf, very good conditions and a good breakfast. Is located rght on the beach of Giardini Naxos.
