    • TAORMINA is admittedly not the ideal town for travellers with restricted physical mobility.
      The historic town consists basicly of one chic pedestrian traffic free Main Street, one predominantly one-way ring road around the medieval city center and lots of scenic staircaises in between.

      Our historic hotel (1905), not designed to be readily accessibile, has worked a lot on the removal of physical barriers impacting upon access for disabled people but some limits still remain.

      We offer restricted facilities for guests with physical disabilities.

      - at the entrance at street level (via Roma) we have a ramp to enter the hotel also by wheelchair. All rooms are easily accessible by elevator, but please consider that:
      - on our first floor 5 out of 7 rooms can be accessed taking 3 steps
      - on our second floor 8 out of 10 rooms can be accessed taking 2 steps
      - on our 3rd floor 8 rooms can be accessed without steps

      One obstacle is that to access the breakfast room, the Orangery and the panoramic Palm Terrace there are 13 steps to take downstairs from the lobby’s exit of the lift. Of course, we can also serve breakfast directly in the room or on our Rooftop Lounge&Terrace, situated in our 4th floor and which is accessible through the lift.

      We have 2 rooms with bathrooms designed both for guests with disabilities as well as for able-bodied guests, and that are functional and aesthetically pleasing. They are the Atrium View Double Room in the first floor and the Superior Double Gardenview in the second floor.

      To take the shortest way from our hotel to the traffic-free main street “Corso Umberto” there are about 40 steps walking uphill through our garden. Clients can also take another (longer) way to the main street without encountering any steps, but the first 100 meters of this 500 meters will be on the panoramic and narrow one-way street Via Roma (cars).

      This limits mentioned, our staff is always happy to help and to assist guests with restricted physcal mobility. Christine and Gerhard Schuler
