"The room has a beautiful view of the ocean and Mount Etna. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly and went the extra mile to help us. The swimming pool by the ocean is beautiful, though the water temperature in April was too cold to swim in. Buffet breakfast included a large variety of foods. The property seems a bit aged but we are 100% satisfied with the cleanliness of our room. "

"Staff were very helpful and welcoming. We arrived late and they helped us to park our car temporarily in a tight spot outside the hotel until the valet could come and pick it up in the morning. Excellent breakfast. Great location with a short walk to the historic centre. Bed was very comfortable. Our room window looked out on a rock wall with plants and so was a bit dark."

"Staff were amazing. Helpful, friendly, The room was beautiful, the pool lovely. Unfortunately, the water was shut off for all of our last night (no warning) . Still no water in the morning - no shower- no face wash. Staff said it was the city. I think they should have adjusted our bill to somehow compensate for this major inconvenience. "

"Did not get the room that I booked instead of being upgraded it was a downgrade room was very small no view very disappointing and misleading"

"This is the most beautiful hotel I have stayed at in the world. I look forward to coming back again as soon as I can. The setting is breathtaking, the renovated content is beautiful and the staff are lovely."

"Lovely Hotel, with a homely atmosphere. All staff were friendly and helpful. Good Breakfast. Room large with a nice Balcony overlooking the Pool (which unfortunately we didn't have time to use). Would definitely recommend this Hotel."

"Terrific room. they upgraded us as soon as we arrived out of the blue. Location is perfect. Parking: don't overthink it. there is one parking garage South of the city and one North. just park at the Porta de Catania parking garage and walk the six minutes to this hotel."

"Fantastic views from the balcony and swimming pool. Clean, smelling great, close to the cable car that takes you into Taormina. Special shout out to Gabriele, at the pool bar, really nice chap, knowledgable, attentive, makes a fantastic Aperol Spritz, superstar!"

"I stayed at the Ariston Hotel for two nights and, unfortunately, my experience was disappointing overall. The hotel is very difficult to access, especially by car. The parking area is quite hard to reach, and navigating within the hotel itself is unnecessarily complex. Moving between different areas can be confusing and inconvenient. The reception staff, in several instances, did not seem adequately prepared to assist guests or handle requests efficiently. This negatively impacted the overall experience. The rooms are quite basic, particularly the bathrooms, which feel outdated and poorly equipped. The amenities provided are minimal and below what one would expect for this type of hotel. On a positive note, the breakfast is very good, with a decent variety and quality. Despite this, I would not recommend staying at this hotel."
