The view from the room was great. However, the room is small, moldy and not very clean. We found hair on the towels. The keys must be left with at the reception everytime you leave but it was ok. The aircon could not be turned high and so it was quite cold in the room. Me and my partner fell sick due to the mold with fever, dizziness and stuffy nose which impacted our holiday in other cities. The staff were good and the location is convenient but I would not recommend due to the mold and cleanliness. There is no free parking. There is a valet parking which can be expensive if you have a car and are staying for many days.

Incredible Visit

This is one of the best hotels I have ever visited. Front desk was exceptional! Ivana made everything easy and provided detailed information about what to see and do. This is a beautiful property, and we had a beautiful room!! However, the staff is the best part about this property. They are kind and helpful. All the staff is great. The breakfast was very good. We enjoyed it very much. Hope to return.

This is a great, easily accessible hotel just off the main strip. You're back in a gated part of the city, so can be a little tricky to find, but the room was clean and accessible, the location is ideally situated (super close to shops and restaurants, but quiet at night) and the staff could not have been nicer. Really nice stay.

Enjoyed our 4 night stay at the splendid. Found all staff that we came into contact with to be friendly and professional. Our room was clean and comfortable and the view was beautiful. I throughly enjoyed breakfast and loved the scrambled egg. We did use the rooftop bar on a couple of occasions after an evening out and enjoyed the drinks and the service.

Loved my stay here, highly recommend

The hotel is very nice and has amazing views, do yourself a favor a book a room with a view it's so worth it. They provide complementary items, like shampoo, lotion, shaving kit & cream, body wash, waters and drinks. It's 4 min walking distance to the center of town close to shops and restaurants while still being a quite area and they have amazing service. A thousand percent recommended.

My stay at the Splendid Hotel in Taormina was absolutely wonderful. The location couldn’t be better - just a short walk to the town center and the cable car that takes you down to the sea. It’s the perfect base to explore everything Taormina has to offer. What truly stood out, though, was how warm and welcoming the atmosphere was from the moment I arrived. The hotel has a charming, relaxing vibe, and the staff made me feel completely at home. A special mention goes to Mohammed at the front desk, who was incredibly kind, professional, and always ready to help. Whether I needed directions, recommendations, or just a friendly conversation, Mohammed was consistently attentive and thoughtful. His hospitality made my stay even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for a hotel with a great location and genuinely caring staff, the Splendid Hotel is a fantastic choice. I am already looking forward to my next visit!
