The hotel was very loud and we were not able to sleep properly
We did not meet the owner, who ended up being rude to me on the phone
The person who was supposed to check us in completely ignored us after we said hello
Great location, but DO NOT SLEEP HERE

The location - very central and close to restaurants and Main Street
The Villa Floresta is wonderfully located right near the Piazza Duomo. It is very reasonably priced considering its location in the center of a major tourist destination. I would not call it a Bed and Breakfast because breakfast is not included in the basic price. We chose to go into the village for our Italian breakfast which consists of pastry with espresso or cappaccino. Our room was clean and comfortable with a view of the village below and the sea beyond. The only drawback to this room was that our private bathroom was down the hall. It would be nice for the hosts to provide robes for this room since occupants don't have an ensuite.
We froze the first night because we couldn’t figure out the heater. Ernesto, the very sweet grandfather came in and tried to help, but no luck. So we froze the second night. For the third night my husband went down to the office and asked if they could help him figure out the heater. They told him it wasn’t broken. He told them he knew that, he just couldn’t figure out how to turn it on and needed help. The son’s (who was very nice) wife told my husband that we were more than welcome to leave and they had no problem with it if we did. The room is paid for, it was 8 o’clock at night, and dark and chilly. Really? Where would we go? The husband did come up and show my husband how to turn on the heat. Our third night at the hotel we had one bath towel and one hand towel between the two of us. The hotel advertised a washing machine which we were planning on using, but it was broken. The hotel advertised itself as a B and B, but there was no breakfast unless you ordered it 24 hours in advance and paid for it??? The town is absolutely gorgeous, but we were not happy at our hotel.
This is the first time I am staying at a B&B where breakfast is additional. That was unexpected. The location is ideal in the heart of the historic district with views of the Duomo, the hotel offers a lovely rooftop terrace where they serve breakfast and my room was spacious and comfortable with a small refrigerator. Lots of steps to get there so not for everybody.
This was a great place, centrally located in Taormina Central. Be aware, there is a bar and restaurant nearby and you might hear some noise if you leave your windows open.
The location was good - an easy 20 minute walk from the bus station and on a beautiful square. The views were lovely! The owner was very friendly and eager to show us many things we could do in Taormina. He’s lived there his whole life. The room was very clean.

Bien mais sans plus
Accueil complexe car propriétaire difficilement joignable.
Peu d'info sur la ville.
Belle chambre avec vue superbe mais salle de bain sur le palier.
Pas de petit déjeuner.
Un peu déçu.

Can't really say too much as I just spent the nigh
As stated I arrived late at night the owner was very gracious. Other guests arriving were very noisy and my room was very close to entrance. Cold was the worst problem
Good price for the location and a nice place to stay. My room was quite small but pleasant. Angelo was very welcoming and allowed me to leave my bag the next day while I went to the beach. There was also a lovely young lady working there who was also very accommodating..
Excellent location in taormina as its in the centre, nice roof terrace and friendly staff. Facilities are basic, but for a b and b its good value for money.
Super zentral gelegen in der Altstadt von Taormina ggü des Doms. Sehr nettes und hilfsbereites Personal - wirkte alles sehr persönlich. Perfekt mit sicherer Parkmöglichkeit mitten in der Stadt.

ancienne demeure qui a eu du charme
nous avons passé 3 nuits au B and B
très déçu par l'accueil de la personne qui s'intéresse surtout à son porte monnaie...
elle nous a d'abord placé dans une chambre petite tout à l'étage
puis on a changé le lendemain (avec surcharge)
clim très bruyante
aucun rajout au petit déj qui est vraiment très frugal (par contre agréable car pris sur le toit
l'intérêt de ce B and B repose dans son positionnement hyper central et avec une bonne isolation
Good location- but don't count on getting an sleep
Villa Floresta is in a great location, just meters from the main strip in Taormina. The room is very basic and the building is old but it was fine as we didn't plan on staying in the room too much.
At night however, we got little sleep- not from noise outside but from a old air conditioning unit that sounded like someone was hitting it over and over again with a hammer. We tried turning this off and opening the balcony but then mosquitos would get in. To top this off you also had the loud hum of the fridge and noises from what I presume the water system. Only on our final night when the weather was cooler and the building was not hot, did we get a decent sleep. We needed up turning off the air con and unplugging the fridge.
I am fine with budget accommodation but sleep is something I cannot do without.
Our stay was excellent, our room had a view of the sea and the duomo on the otherside. It was tastefully decorated and a great location in the centre of town.

Fantastic location, dated rooms
The location is fantastic and the owners were very helpful but our room was very dated. The bathroom was in desperate need to a refresh and a lick of paint.
B&b muy bien ubicado, super cómodo. Para llegar desde la estación de tren no hay que hacerlo caminando, pues el centro de la ciudad queda a varios metros sobre el nivel del mar. El hotel tiene una terraza hermosos imagen con vista al duomo y al mar
Super Informationen über Umgebung und Veranstaltungen, z.B. Mandelblütenfest mit Umzug auf der Straße vor dem Haus und bester Blick vom Balkon

Tidig vår
Vårt rum hade inte toalett/dusch på rummet vilket var negativt. Men mycket vänlig värd som tog hand om oss och hjälpte oss med sightseeing mm. Härlig vy över området från terassen där frukosten serverades. Lite synd att man var tvungen att välja frukost från en begränsad lista.
