Hotel Corallo

It is walking distance from Taormina Giardini train station (but no footpath!) Great pool.

It’s not easy to get to and from Taormina. There is a rough path up the cliff face but I wouldn’t recommend it. Interbus goes up there from the main coast road. A taxi back from Taormina costs €25!!!

Free parking, clean, good breakfast, close to the sea

Uncomfortable bad

Really good location if you want it just outside of the main streets of Taormina. Stunning views overlooking the sea, if you pay for the sea view. Staff were so friendly and helpful, recommended us things to do in the day. Bus stop right outside the hotel, which for €2pp gets you into Taormina. The journey itself is stunning, as you overlook Isola Bella. Nice quiet pool area to relax and switch off. Lovely bar area too for evening drinks. Balcony in the evening was amazing, overlooking the sea.

More on the expensive side, but that’s mainly due to the town it is located in. I certainly wouldn’t say that was a negative and to be fair, it was good value for money overall.

Close to train station. Very clean

We were in a room near the back of the property and there was an awful ‘generator’ sound all night. We also arrived a day late due to flight cancellation due to etna ash cloud. A ‘complimentary drink or something would’ve been courteous. There was little choice for breakfast in our first morning.
