Hotel Isola Bella, Taormina

Hotel Isola Bella, Taormina. Looking down onto the bay after which it is named, this super Taormina hotel has a marvellous position, near to the beach and to the cable car station, and thus up to the city centre of Taormina. The lovely Bay of Isola Bella, with the little island at its centre, is linked to the beach via a tiny sandy path. And each of the rooms at the hotel has a terrific view of the bay from its own private terrace.

This Taormina hotel has double and triple rooms, all with minibar, phone, air conditioning, bathroom with shower and a balcony. The hotel has a lift/elevator to all floors, safety deposit facilities, an outdoor swimming pool, and free WiFi internet access for guests. There is a small but comfortable bar open 24 hours a day, while breakfast is served each morning in a room with big windows looking onto the sea.

Taormina itself has a wealth of sights. Hop on the cable car and within minutes you'll be up at the ancient hilltop city, founded by the ancient Greeks, and still bearing their mark in the ancient Teatro Greco - the remarkable amphitheatre which still stands intact atop the cliff and gazing down over the Bay of Naxos. There is the 13th century Cathedral or Duomo, the 12th century Torre d'Orologio and a host more historic buildings. There are the spectacular views across the ocean and towards looming Mount Etna, smouldering a few miles away. And there are the terrific shops, bars and restaurants on the main street of Corso Umberto I. This Taormina hotel puts it all on your doorstep.
