The addition of St George 2 star michelin to The Ashbee is icing on the cake. And just overall splendid service, good guidance to local restaurants and trips.

The hotel gas a magnificent location, fantastic view. The lobby, the hall is beautiful, elegant and charming.
Staff was helpful and kind.
A bit disappointment was the cold and due to very rainy days wet rooms.

Everything was great - staff were super friendly and accommodating. The property is beautiful and centrally located. Breakfast in the morning was delicious. Few minute walk to all the bars, restaurants and the tram that takes you to the beaches. Room is spacious but we wish there were a dresser with drawers. Highly recommend.

Located just outside Messina Gate, location is quiet but quick access to Corso and not far from funicular. Attentive, friendly staff. Nice breakfast on the roof level. Hotel has a Michelin 2 star restaurant (which we did not dine at-- didn't realize prior to check -in and we had other plans). Recommend highly!

An impeccable hotel. They understand what 5 stars really means and they set the bar high for other 5 star hotels. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and every single staff member here is committed to ensuring your stay is nothing less than perfect. I simply cannot imagine even the pickiest person having issues at this hotel. Trust me you will not be disappointed. The pool is also incredible so be sure to set time aside in the itinerary for relaxing there. Ivana from the breakfast restaurant is a shining star and she made our stay so enjoyable as she was so kind and truly went above and beyond. My friend has a severe nut allergy and she took it so seriously and communicated with us and the chef everyday to ensure my friend felt safe eating breakfast at the hotel. I can’t say enough how great she was. If you are considering this hotel, you should book it before it sells out!

Best hotel I stayed in Taormina
Beautiful building, green surroundings, amazing sea view from the pool

I’m very sensitive to noise and the hotel arranged a quiet room for me
It worked very well
I appreciate this very much

The hotel is very good. Although the swimming pool is not big, it has a beautiful view.

The lady at the front desk was very nice and helpful in introducing attractions and restaurants.

The breakfast is also very good. You can have breakfast facing the sea. The service staff is also very friendly.

The location of the hotel is very convenient. It is right at the entrance to the city. It is very convenient to walk to the ancient city in two steps.

If you drive there, be sure to pay attention to the hotel entrance so as not to miss it. If you miss it, you will need to make a long circle to get back to the hotel entrance because it is a one-way street.

It's a very good hotel and I left a lot of good memories.

Very nice hotel in the center of Taormina. Positive services, the only flaw being a 5 star was having to call the reception only once for cleaning
