Was nice and quiet, still plenty of good restaurants and bars for a few nights. 15 min bus into the Taormina, with the bus stop a 2 minute walk away. Owner very helpful setting up excursions and was contactable 24/7.

It is an extraordinary location, with a breathtaking view! It is an extraordinarily beautiful experience even arriving at the location! From the base of the mountain to the room! The host is very welcoming, although we didn't even meet, she was very nice with the check-in at one o'clock after midnight, the room was cleaned every day and everything felt wonderful! I highly recommend it!

The interior is very simple and a bit dated which doesn't matter at alll as it is about the location and the lovely terrace.

great communication, easy check-in, view was magnificent - we highly recommend booking the one-bedroom suite as it has a magnificent huge terrace overlooking the bay with great Etna views. We stayed for 5 nights and started every day with a hike up the mountain, followed by breakfast at San Giorgio Bar. The stay in Castelmola couldn't have been any better.

The breakfast isn't the best, but it's acceptable.

The village is charming, peaceful, and delightful. The room is comfortable, and keeping in touch with the staff is easy. I highly recommend this hotel.

Castelmola is a beautiful spot, but nothing much happens there, u need tontake the bus to go to the city.

Beautiful view, walking distance from castlemola things to do.

It needs a bit of love in the acoustic insulation.

Super clean place and super thoughtful in detail.

There was a kitchen area within each room but some equipment needed updating , replacing. eg sparse tea/coffee making tools. The only member of staff we met was whilst collecting breakfast vouchers ( office reception in street to rear ) on the first morning of our stay, this was had at a café at entrance to town 70 yards or so away, and consisted of a croissant and a drink. Any extra to be paid for.

After 'scary' drive up to town we were met with lovely sight of surrounding countryside views of coast, coastal towns and villages and Etna. Quaint little hilltop location with narrow streets etc. A good choice of restaurants/ bars etc. Accommodation was clean and tidy , Contact with host staff all amenable and friendly by text/Whats app.

Some where to place toiletries in the bathroom or an additional mirror in the bedroom would be helpful.

Excellent location and the staff were amazing.

Everything was fine. Maybe a little bit difficult for persons with mobility difficulty.

Rooms were very big, with a very nice verandah overlooking the town of Town of Taormina, and excellent views of Mount Etna.

The communication was prompt, the view was great and warm and cosy.

The drive up to Castelmola is not for the faint of heart. It is a very touristic little village. Parking (just below the entrance square) is expensive. It is impossible to drive up to the accommodation, so be prepared to haul up your luggage on foot over sharply rising streets and alleys.

Accommodation in beautiful little village with excellent views on the whole area including Taormina and Etna. With a bit of neck turning even good views from our window. Kitchenette in our spacious room, hidden behind folding door. Medieval theme kind of cute.

the staff is extremely sensitive to your comfort and pleasure. They went above and beyond the average service. I highly recommend this spot for anyone wanting to explore the beauty of this area.

We had one of the suites and it was lovely and spacious with a balcony with an amazing view of Mount Etna. Loved staying here and in Castelmola which was a nice quiet hideaway from busy Taormina.

Fantstic location with perfect view over Etna. Great place to stay with very good support form the stuff and help to choose facitilites nearby. Just don't try to get restaurant yourself, wait for the advice and you will have a dinner of your life. Wonderful place to stay, full of historical places and great present pleasures.

Locating the property was a bit hard because I tried to get with the car to leave my luggage but the Streets were too narrow.

The room was very spacious, we had a very big nice balcony. Castelmoa is very nice and it is a 15 minute drive from Taormina.

the location

Stayed in August 2024

- parking is 11.50 euro for 24 hrs, or 24 euro for 3 days, close to the main square . - the rooms could be better stocked: e.g coffee available in the kitchenette to go w the perculator and S&P as a minimum. (Breakfast is 5 euros), - our room was ground level so we couldn't really open our window or doors without ppl looking straight into us and our room

' very friendly and helpful staff - beautiful location, there is a medieval walking path down to taoromina which takes 15 to 20 mins, much better than bus or driving. It took us 30 mins back up - it's tricky w a car and finding the accom w windy paths (anywhere in castelmora) but very worth it for the location - loved having a kitchenette with stove top - v comfortable medieval style room - cold water fountain down the road in the main square

Without the buses and the tours picking you up at Piazza San Antonio, I could see how that hilltop location could be a challenge for some. It wasn’t for me.

Balcony views of Etna on one end and steps away from Piazza Chiesa Madre on the other, which offers cafes, gelato, and Bar Turrisi. Even the bus stop at Piazza San Antonio has amazing views. Excursion picked me up and dropped me off, which was convenient. Absolutely idyllic!

The shower is a little too small, not a big issue for us but for some heavier persons could be. For parking we had some doubts regarding the payment, once we paid 10 euro, as it was supposed to be the payment for entire day, the ticket came out printed: it is valit until 3 o’clock in the morning!

Excellent position with a splendid view. There might be different rooms but this one was great. One bedroom suit with a nice terrace, right in the middle of the small city of Castelmole

It is about 5 mins walk down very small streets with quite a few stairs so best to have light luggage.

Friendly staff, beautiful views, great location. Very clean
