9.2/10 on 417 reviews
A short distance from the enchanting public garden, the ruins of the Greek-Roman Amphitheatre and the greenest area of Taormina, discreetly rises this hotel, built in 1902, and which, during the years, has been renewed without ever detaching from the intimate and friendly atmosphere which stills surrounds it.
With its ochre-yellow walls, its terraced gardens planted with orange and lemon trees, Hotel Villa Belvedere has a somewhat unwanted air of the houses of the past, yet has incomparable comfort.
The simple and welcoming bedrooms overlook almost all of the garden and the bay of Naxos, with the imposing volcano Etna in the background. The Villa is situated in the shelter of the tourist bustle and at the same time only five minutes walk from the picturesque historical centre. Also the funicular railway and the panoramic stone stairway which goes down to the sea are a short distance away.
The hotel, which has independent and shrewd clientele, has for some time adopted the “Bed & Breakfast” formula, and is therefore ideal for those who want to be free of set meal times. However, from April to October there is a good buffet or “à la carte menu” lunch service on the edge of the swimming pool.
The excellent welcome, guaranteed by the Pécaut-Bambara family, make the visitor take away a little of the soul of this suggestive hotel which still has the old fascination of the splendid town of Taormina.
Located at just 90 meters from the main building of Villa belvedere and within easy strolling distance from Taormina center.
Truly delightful, luxurious and self-contained studio-apartment with elevator, ideal for guests who prefer a "total privacy" holiday in elegant surroundings with panoramic balconies & marvelous & unobstructed view of the Mediterranean sea and Etna Volcano.
Daily maid service, Heating & AC. free wifi, flat and wide-screen TV with DVD player. Apartment guests are welcome to use the hotel swimming pool and to enjoy breakfast & lunch-time restaurant facilities from end of March until November. Secure private parking facilities avaialble all year round inside the hotel premises.

His Opinion: We absolutely loved this hotel! The view of Mt. Etna is breathtaking, the grounds are so picturesque and it is very close to il Teatro Greco. We stayed in room 57 which had a nice terrace. The buffet breakfast was exquisite. The hotel staff we interacted with were very welcoming and accommodating- nothing was ever a problem. Even though we had a car with us, we asked for a driver to Mt Etna and they called Carmelo who was such a pleasure to spend time with.
Joshua at the front desk helped us, as well as Angelo - always with a warm smile. Gino helped us with our luggage on the way out and he was also very nice.
We will definitely be back to Taormina and will certainly stay again at this beautiful hotel.

His Opinion: We had a fantastic stay at Hotel Villa Belvedere. All the staff were very friendly, polite and helpful. The breakfast buffet was delicious, plentiful and varied. Our room upgrade was very much appreciated and we had a wonderful view of the sea and Mount Etna. We also enjoyed some relaxation time by the pool. We will recommend this hotel to family and friends. Hope we can return one day.

His Opinion: This is a beautiful hotel with a courteous and helpful staff. Breakfast was great as was the lunch buffet (although if you want more of anything there is an extra charge, so it's not really a buffet). Our room was spacious and well-appointed with a limited view of the bay.
